Hey! Thanks for being here.
I am an actor shuttling between Boston, New York, Los Angeles and Atlanta.
My journey started in Nigeria, where I was born and raised, and started my career as an actor. Now, I'm living and working as an actor full time in the United States. Through my journey in life, and process as an actor, I get to meet all kinds of people from all walks of life. I am endlessly fascinated by humans (it's part of why I chose this line of work)! This podcast is a place to hold space for those people, ideas, and conversations that entertain and inspire me.
I hope this space does the same for you!

Time changes everything
On this episode I talk about a canceled trip to Canada from Nigeria in April 2004, the day I was supposed to travel. A tough but wise decision that changed the course of my life.

Start Now (Don't wait)
Once you're okay with looking foolish, and accepting that not everyone will understand you in your quest to start something new, then you'd find the freedom.

Own your story
After a recent news that came as a surprise, I was forced to look back at my life and reflect on the times that I was able to overcome obstacles and difficult situations. I embraced my uniques and used it as fuel, not counting what I didn't have nor comparing myself to others.
We often forget the power of our story, not just the fact that it could help others, but also how it helps us navigate the present and help us grow and learn.

"Perfection" The enemy of the good.
On this episode, my guest Jay Street and I talked about what it took for Jay to finally embrace the idea of becoming an acting coach in the midst of countless obstacles, where many would have quit.
Perfection is a road, not a destination.

Everyone deserves a chance
For most of my life, I've been considered an underdog. My life is a testament of a person who didn't think he had anything to offer, but I had people who saw gifts and abilities in me that I didn't know I had. They gave me a chance, you deserve a chance, everyone does.
