    Let's Talk About It With Tobenna Okeke #CollegeLife

    Let’s Talk About It with Joyce Johnson with Guest Speaker Tobenna Okeke #CollegeLife It’s been said that the most successful people are those who have a Plan B—and I must say that our guest for today’s #CollegeLife podcast is a living testament to that! Today, our guest is Tobenna Okeke, a former collegiate-level football player turned sales professional. Tobenna is the Director of Dialogue and Intrigue and is a millennial podcaster. Tobenna always dreamed of becoming a football star. But in his 3-year tenure on his college football team, he couldn’t get what he referred to as that “23-year Tom Brady time frame.” That’s when he decided to pivot and enact his Plan B. In this episode, Tobenna shares his journey from the football field to the corporate world—two wildly different pursuits. Listen to the episode to find out how Tobenna managed to succeed using his backup plan!  About the Guest Tobenna Okeke went cross-country from Missouri City, Texas to the West Coast to pursue his football dreams at California State University in Fresno. He played for his college football team for 3 years, granting him the opportunity to play in a professional game and sign an athlete’s contract. Although his circumstances did not lead him to reach the level of success that he wanted in that field, he was smart and proactive enough to create a Plan B that would allow him to achieve success in a different avenue. Today, Tobenna is a problem-solving sales professional at Total Quality Logistics. He also worked as a football analyst and played various corporate roles over the past few years. Aside from that, he hosts his own podcast called “Everything About Nothing” where he brings on people from different backgrounds and tackles millennial issues and mental health. In This Episode Who is Tobenna Okeke? [1:19]What was his Plan B? [2:39]About his podcast, “Everything About Nothing” [3:14]Tobenna’s journey as a student-athlete [5:05]How he decided to move out from his family [7:50] His college life and experiences as an athlete [10:19]His first official football game experience and what he learned [16:30]Contract signing and money management [19:50]What skills as an athlete were helpful in the corporate environment? [28:50]…and many moreQuotes “Each step that you take in your process in life, you have to level up. You have to be able to step up 'cause you can't take old habits into such a new environment.” [11:28] “I say it’s a learning moment because something happens and you either can let it fold you or you can learn from it.” [18:42] "I'm more than an athlete, essentially. Even when I was playing, sometimes I would start looking at other ventures because you just never know and for a lot of guys that time, when the time comes, they’re left high and dry. And I never wanted to be that guy and I kind of wanted to see myself in a different avenue.” [24:52] Resources Mentioned Tobenna Okeke's Instagram Joyce Johnson's Website Joyce Johnson's Facebook Joyce Johnson's Instagram Joyce Johnson's Twitter Joyce Johnson's LinkedIn Joyce Johnson's YouTube Joyce Johnson's Amazon Page Why Sales Network's Website

    Let's Talk About It With Jasminie Waring #AuthorLife

    Let’s Talk About It with Joyce Johnson with Guest Speaker Jasmine Waring #AuthorLife People often avoid or delay making decisions for themselves by having someone else do it for them. But if you want to become the best version of yourself, you need to be willing and humble enough to look at where you are now, and bold enough to steer your life in the direction that feels right. And if things don’t turn out as you’d hoped, take accountability and make the necessary changes. According to Jasmine Waring, this is how you can live in alignment with your life’s purpose. In today’s insightful episode, Jasmine talks about how people often get stuck in their comfort zone. She emphasizes the importance of being intentional in all your decisions, so you can move into a space of growth while also making a positive impact on others. About the Guest Jasmine Waring is currently an Enterprise Relationship Manager at LinkedIn, where she helps organizations achieve their revenue goals through innovative sales strategies. She is also the president of the National Sales Network's DC Baltimore chapter and co-author of Color Outside the Lines – Stories of Extraordinary Leadership, where she talks about the many roles and responsibilities of a salesperson. In This Episode Who is Jasmine Waring? [0:43] How does Jasmine stay centered? [1:33]How can you make a decision and move forward in your journey? [9:25]What empowered Jasmine to share her story with others? [19:27]…and many moreQuotes “I was talking about how do I find alignment, and I think...the biggest thing is to understand the value of it in your life and not feel like you have to go and go and go and continue to do everything for everybody else, including making decisions.” [2:13] “I work in a space that is about advancing careers of people who are in sales, and some of the people I speak with have been in the same industry for 10, 15, 20 years and are just afraid to ever consider something else, even if they’re in a space that’s dying, you know? They’re just so stuck in the way that it’s been because that’s all they know, that they’re willing to go down with it rather than spreading their wings and trying something new or moving into a space that makes better sense for them as it relates to their goals.” [7:10] “Enjoy the experience for what it is, but also know that sometimes things need to change. And you gotta be willing to make those changes for the alignment of your life and to be in the best space.” [14:32] “When you’re in a space of flow, your career takes off, your life takes off, you start to glow a little bit more…when you move yourself to that space, the people around you start to feel that and benefit, as well, and so I’m hoping that y’all see that and feel that and get that when you need [sic] it, but just know that it goes deeper than what you see on the surface.” [17:16] Resources Mentioned Jasmine Waring's Facebook Jasmine Waring's LinkedIn Color Outside the Lines, Stories of Extraordinary Leaders Joyce Johnson's Website Joyce Johnson's Facebook Joyce Johnson's LinkedIn Joyce Johnson's Linktree Joyce Johnson's YouTube Key Words Leadership, Personal Development, Sales, Growth, Leaders, Author, Career Growth
