Some years ago, when we hosted one of SOBCA’s free tasters on Mental Health and Emotional Intelligence at Be Better Centre, Gudu (Abuja), right after the session, I had the privilege of chatting with the Founder of Be Better Centre, Mr. Omagbitse Barrow, and another friend (and former client), (I will omit her name for a purpose).
Last week, an architect came to me with a need. She said she is not permitted to market her profession (based on ethics of architecture) but she wishes she can merge her work with human capital development. So she needed a strategy because she was experiencing sickness and depression from just being on her job.

I listened in live to this radio show called UNSCRIPTED and this episode was raw, powerful and as real as can be.
So in the spirit of MOTHER’S DAY, I bring you a soul-searching, heartwarming episode for your strengthening
Around my estate, there is a UBA ATM Machine. It has been there since I moved into this estate 2 years ago. If my guesses are right, most times than not, the 2 ATMs are always OUT OF SERVICE or TEMPORARILY UNABLE TO DISPENSE CASH. This was the norm. It got to a point when I really did not bother checking the machine anymore.
Okay, so I know I am about to generalize; yea? But personally, I feel that every adult male has heard the statement (or something like it) “Babe, we need to talk” …. that later ends in “I missed my period”. 😱 😱 😱 😟 😟 😟 😦 😦 😦
I cannot say this enough. No matter how much you pay for coaching, your coach is not responsible for the actions you must take to get your outcomes. Many people say ‘my coach is not helping me.’, ‘my coach just left me alone to do this’, ‘my coach this, my coach that’. Well, good or bad news: YOUR COACH HAS NO BUSINESS DOING YOUR TASKS FOR YOU.
Steve Harris usually says there are 4 reactions people have towards a brand:
1. Brands they love to love.
2. Brands they love to hate.
3. Brands they hate to love.
4. Brands they are indifferent about.
Last week, I spoke at a visioning session of a financial instruments company. While they were negotiating my time, they had given me options of payment in cash (a heavy sum 😉) or payment in a financial instrument. I licked my lips. It sounded nice. I chose financial instruments, a type of cryptocurrency, to be specific.
I have decided to help a few CEOs with designing a STRATEGIC PLAN FOR YOUR BUSINESS.
