Blessing Adesiyan established WorkLife Africa, a think-tank focussed on transforming the continent's workforce and work spaces. She has made quite a journey from tech to care, not the first pivot that springs to mind but as the mistress of making lemonade from lemons, she now sits comfortably in her own skin.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Finding yourself pregnant in Uni and making it work;
- The incredible power of a loving father;
- Growing up in Nigeria, being fearless and that unquantifiable super power;
- The squeezed middle, the never ending care giving age and the sheer soul sapping burden of care;
- Japa, japaing and japadaing - hmmm;
- The pastor's daughter way to spirituality (and no, it doesn't involve church);
- Powerlifting, weights and we are in awe!
Blessing tells a joke, actually a true story but an absolute cracker. This episode is a close up of a mega motivated person and one that just might get you lifting weights.
