I love to reflect. It is possibly one of my greatest strengths and also a weakness. As much as I think about the past, I am usually more reflective about my future and the kind of life I want to live. Which means I am constantly evaluating if the decisions I am making today will eventually get me to where…
I have agonized about releasing this particular VLog because it takes me back to a really dark place in my life. But I realize that one of the aims of this VLog is sincerity. A lot of people look at me today and think ‘ohhhh….Glory is such a bubbly person’…they wouldn’t believe that almost 8 years ago now, I actually…
My 20’s feel like a burr. A cocktail of parties, boys, university and day dreaming about the future. It wasn’t until my mid to late twenties that I started really questioning myself and wondering what I was doing which then birthed the confusion and the depression. I have spoken to many ladies in their twenties and I find that although…
I am the kind of person that always wants more. Give me an inch and I’ll take 5KM! I spend a sizeable portion of my time dreaming about my future. What I want to do and where I want to be. While there is nothing wrong with aiming higher, constantly comparing your life with where you think you ought to…
I find we can be a little too judgmental. We make harsh, sweeping generalizations without any understanding of the peculiarities of a situation. My parents separated when I was 6 but it was only through peoples comments that I realized its negative connotations in society. With time and hindsight, I see the great lengths my parents went to shield me.…
Single and happy? Isnt that an oxymoron? The rush to the alter is real, happiness is tied to saying I do and those who haven’t said the sacred vows are banished to the land of misery until the knight in shinning armor turns up and gives us the kiss of life that is marriage…. Marriage is a wonderful thing and…
I am always pleasantly surprised by how much women learn when they come together. Wana Udobang and I put together the #RedefiningFinance Event in April this year. As we planned the event, we weren’t sure what to expect. All we knew was there was a dearth of personal financial planning amongst our peers and we wanted to create a platform…

That’s what my guest vlogger Uzo Orimalade, CEO of Uzo’s Food Labs is talking about- How to turn your passion into a business. Uzo provides personal insight from her own journey as she transitioned from an investment…
2 weeks ago I published an article on how to acknowledge your own beauty. I think many women spend so much (unnecessary) time fussing and fighting about what they look like instead of embracing their true beautiful selves! I watched this video on BuzzFeed and I just had to share it. “There is no need to love your body with trepidation…”…
Haters! Everywhere! No matter what you do these days, there always seems to be someone somewhere who isn’t satisfied or has a complaint. Critics….they can make you or break you. I find these days we concentrate too much on the person giving the criticism rather than the merit behind their comments. Granted, people need to learn how to frame negative…
