    The Power of an Intimate Relationship with God with Ezinne Zara

    In this episode of Conversations with Valerie, I sit down with Ezinne Zara for a conversation about intimacy with God, the wisdom that comes from life's difficult seasons, and the obedience required to steward the gifts God has given us. Ezinne shares why cultivating a personal relationship with God matters, and how making room for Him allows us to receive the wisdom and revelation we need for our own journeys. She also takes us through her YouTube journey, from starting without knowing anything about cameras or editing. Her story is a powerful reminder that having a gift is only part of the journey as we must also be willing to steward it faithfully and obey God, even when His instructions don't make sense. “Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” — 1 Corinthians 4:2 (KJV) CONNECT WITH EZINNEInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ezinne.zara?dlrf=MW03N3hxZWRyeDZraA== GET EZINNE'S BOOK📖 His Eyes is on the Sparrow Purchase your copy here: Africa: https://ezinnezara.nestuge.com/?fbclid= International: https://www.amazon.com/dp/9786921666?

    The Life My Father Lived So I Could Live Mine | Kennedy Okezie

    What do you do when a dream you once had doesn’t happen? In this episode, I sit down with my dad, media personality, entrepreneur, and founder of Arsenal Fans Bit to have an honest conversation about the death of a dream. He shares his journey of wanting to become a footballer, the resistance he faced, and what it meant to let go of something he once deeply believed in. We talk about how those experiences shaped him, and how it influenced the way he raised me to pursue my own path freely. This episode is for anyone navigating disappointment, delay, or trying to make sense of their journey. Sometimes a dream doesn’t end, it transforms into something you didn’t expect, but exactly what you needed.

    I used to be insecure and envy others- here’s my advice

    Hey guys! Welcome to a new season of the pod. It’s been a minute so glad to be back. In this episode, I talk about HOW to be HAPPY for other PEOPLE when life isn’t working for you 📌. I share my personal journey of overcoming insecurity and envy, and offer practical advice on shifting your mindset to celebrate others' successes without feeling left behind. “Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth. After all, we brought nothing with us when we came into the world, and we can’t take anything with us when we leave it. So if we have enough food and clothing, let us be content.” ‭‭1 Timothy‬ ‭6‬:‭6‬-‭8‬ ‭NLT‬‬🤍 instagram- https://www.instagram.com/valerie.okezie?igsh=ZzUwbnJqd21vdnQ3&utm_source=qr substack- https://valerieokezie.substack.com?r=4sekrw&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=profile website- https://msha.ke/valerieokezie
