Fav quotes from this episode:

“Adulting is winging it - nobody knows how to adult!”

“Nigerians have a saying for everything”

“There’s no manual for being a grown up.”

“I’m an adult but… I don’t have it figured out. I’m still a baby at heart.” 

In this episode we talk about:

  • The importance of proverbs as we navigate life
  • How meditation, reading, walking in nature or other activities of quiet contemplation can help you ground yourself and restore inner peace.
  • How introducing children to meditation can help them to relieve stress, manage emotions and understand who they are.
  • Why it’s important to persist with meditation, even if it doesn’t feel comfortable, and to trial different forms of meditation to find the one that works for you.

Plus, we discuss the fact that no one has 100% confidence – everyone has wobbles, and that sometimes these ‘wobbles’ can help to keep us in check, and hold us back from arrogance.

About the Podcast

Adulting with Ebonie
Your weekly dose of introspection and contemplation on what it means and takes to be a conscious, creative adult with a misfit mind.
Adulting with Ebonie is the weekly podcast that brings together Neurodiversity, Human Design and Embodiment so that Gen X or Millennial Misfits (and late-diagnosed Neurospices) become empowered, embodied and fully expressed. Where I actively encourage you to feel your feelings rather than think them, glow up not grow up and become full of yourself, because who the f*ck else should you be full of? Each week I have real and raw conversations about what it takes to be fully resourced and have happy healthy intimate relationships as a dopamine-deficient adult wanting to create a better future by being the change you want to see in the world.
