African Love = British Success | Evolve Podcast

An African father’s love can change everything. In this Evolve Podcast episode, Ms. Okunade (British-Nigerian attorney, public servant & author of The Act of Service) shares how Yoruba proverbs—“Ròntí ọmọ nìtí wọ́n ṣe” (Always remember whose child you are) and “Èwà l’ẹwà” (Your beauty is your character)—forged self-belief, excellence, and community service. We dig into African fatherhood, Nigerian culture, faith, and how to guide youth in the UK/US to stay focused, study hard, and build real legacy.

What you’ll learn:
• How African parenting & identity create confidence and resilience
• Why Nigerians excel abroad (education, expectations, community)
• Practical advice for young people drowning in distractions
• The W.I.S.E. leadership model: Wisdom • Integrity • Systems • Empathy
• Turning setbacks (bias, rejection) into excellence—keep knocking
