Hosts Temi Akinsanya and Tobi Hamilton are joined by Tolulope Fasanya, Head of Research at Nairametrics, for a fascinating conversation that goes beyond the parties and nightlife to examine the business behind the buzz.

    The illusion of inclusion: Who actually gets access?

    This week, Temi and Tobi are talking about one of the most important conversations in marketing, business, and culture today: The Illusion of Inclusion — Who Actually Gets Access? We talk a lot about inclusion, but who actually gets access? Who gets the invitation? Who gets the recommendation? Who gets the seat at the table? In this episode of Totally On Brand, we unpack the gap between visible inclusion and real opportunity. From awards and fellowships to themed campaigns and recognition platforms, we ask the difficult questions: Are opportunities really based on merit, or are they shaped by visibility, PR, and the right networks? We explore why representation doesn't always translate into funding, growth, influence, or meaningful advancement—and what genuine access should actually look like. If you've ever wondered who gets chosen, why some people seem to move ahead faster than others, or whether inclusion has become more performative than impactful, this conversation is for you.

    Are Nigerian Workplaces Optimised for People with Special Needs? Ft Adenike Dasola Lawal

    Most workplaces weren't intentionally built to exclude. But many still do. This week on Totally On Brand, we're asking the questions many organisations avoid: What does an inclusive workplace actually look like? And are we doing enough for persons with disabilities? Joining us is Mrs. Adenike Dasola Lawal, who has spent years advocating for more inclusive workplaces for persons with disabilities in Lagos, Nigeria. Through her work, she has championed conversations around accessibility, equal opportunity, and creating work environments where everyone can thrive. In this episode, she challenges the way we think about accessibility, disability, and what genuine inclusion should look like at work. Together, we explore why many workplaces continue to exclude people not always by intention, but by design and what organisations can do to change that. Whether you're a business leader, HR professional, entrepreneur, policymaker, or someone passionate about creating equitable workplaces, this episode will challenge your assumptions and leave you with practical insights you can apply. We'd love to hear from you: Do you think most workplaces are truly inclusive, or do we still have a long way to go? Share your thoughts in the comments. Watch, share, like and subscribe.
