Hey all! On this week's episode, I am joined by Ivie Clarke as she shares with us her experience as a newly grad. Just like many of you listening, you may have just recently graduated or are approaching the end of your post-secondary education. Ivie discusses her experience with undergrad, the importance of taking a gap year and her new life as a graduate. We further discuss the importance of "finding yourself" and not falling into the pressures of society's definition of success. I really needed to have this conversation and I hope all of you listening benefit from this episode too :) No, For Real: Ivie Clarke: IG: @ivyivonclarke IG: @nfrthepodcast Twitter: @nfrthepodcast Contact: [email protected] Melody Obaseki: IG: @melodyobaseki

Hey NFRMY! On this week's episode, I am joined by currency trader, Emmanuel Osahon. Come hangout with us as we discuss Emmanuel's journey from growing up in Nigeria, to policing to forex trading. With all of his experiences, he has taken away a lesson that has shaped his current life of discipline and success. He enlightens me on the Forex business and addresses the associated myths circulating on social media. We further dive into the importance of vision, manifestation and meditation to help you discover your purpose. So grab a snack and get comfortable for this one-hour episode because it's a good one.  No, For Real: IG: @nfrthepodcast Contact: [email protected] Emmanuel Osahon: IG: _emmanuelj Melody Obaseki: IG:@melodyobaseki "Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to preaching and to teaching. Do not neglect your gift, which was given you through prophecy when the body of elders laid their hands on you. Be diligent in these matters; give yourself wholly to them, so that everyone may see your progress." (1 Timothy 4:13-15)

Hey NFRMY! Welcome to season 3. We are now halfway through the year. To kick of this season, I welcome fellow podcaster Onome. If you’re approaching or in your 20s like us, I know it can be hard trying to navigate the world of adulting. Join us as we get deep about the fears of post-grad, adulthood and marriage to name a few. We are not only here to vent our emotions but also to provide you all with a sense of comfort. So remember this: you are young, what's for you is for you and treat everyday like it's your last. Enjoy!

We’ve reached the end of season 2! On today’s season finale, we talk about being kids and believing our parents could do no wrong. As we’ve gotten older, we’ve realized that they’re just people and it’s okay to notice how we’re often different from them. Sometimes we seek validation from our parents and we can get discouraged when they don’t see things our way. We know that at the end of the day our parents want the best for us, but what’s best is different in their eyes. Whether we have differing opinions on marriage, kids, or education, we are always grateful for them. *From Lisha: Hey guys, this is my last episode with NFR and I am eternally grateful for the memories I’ve been able to create, the conversations we’ve had, and the opportunity to share myself with all of you! I'll still be supporting and keeping up with NFR and I cannot wait to see where it goes. Thank you all. Much love!

We’ve had our fair share of social media debates and we see it pretty much everyday. Whether it’s defending your favourite celebrity or cancelling someone’s existence, sometimes it’s just not your fight. In this episode, we talk about the toxicity of cancel culture, entitlement, learning how to mind our business, and separating the art from the artist (or at least trying to). Speaking of artists, we also talk about who we’re listening to, old school vs. new school music, what makes a performer, and artists who deserve their flowers.

It’s been almost a year since the start of the pandemic and things seem to be getting more hectic in more ways than one. You can imagine that our thoughts are all over the place, like this episode. We talk about designer clothing, social climbing, our high school experiences, and our encounters with racism. The episode is pretty laid back so grab a snack, get comfortable, and take a break. You probably need it.  No, For Real: IG: @nfrthepodcast Twitter: @nfrthepodcast Contact: [email protected]  Melody Obaseki: IG: @melodyobaseki (personal) & @melleroseco (business) Melody’s Website: https://www.melleroseco.com/ Lisha Racquelle: IG: @lisharacquelle Lisha’s Music: https://soundcloud.com/lisharacquelle  Logo/Artwork: Melody Obaseki Intro/Outro Music: Lisha Racquelle “There is one who pretends to be rich, but has nothing;Another pretends to be poor, but has great wealth” (Proverbs 13:7).

On today’s episode, we get into the mind of a guy, Kesiri, and ask all the questions that most girls would want to hear. Have you ever wondered what crushes are like for guys? Do guys date to marry? Is sex the end all be all? It was nice to hear a healthy point of view, especially compared to our past experiences (they’re a little crazy). To wrap things up, we discuss what each of us considers to be romance and whether it’s dead, or alive and well. For our sake, we hope it’s alive. Never settle for less!

This episode really blessed us and we enjoyed hearing our guest, Michaella, give her profound insight. We are in no way condemning anyone during this episode, we are also guilty of some of the things we talk about. Our hope is not to scare you, but to enlighten you. On today’s episode, we discuss and dissect topics such as astrology, blasphemy, and idols. We know some people are afraid of the word Christianity, but we want to emphasize that your faith is about your personal relationship with God. We can’t tell you how to feel or dictate your life, we just wanted to share our truths.

Does social media have more of an influence than we think? Like many of you, we have a love-hate relationship with social media. We love being able to connect with people, but it’s easy to compare yourself and to basically be told that you’re not good enough. Today, we talk with special guest Hilda Oni about the pressure to pursue entrepreneurship, to have a “perfect” figure, and to be a millionaire by the age of 25. Oh, and don’t forget the 9-5 slander. Have you felt this too? Well, let’s get into it.

Happy New Year NFRMY! Welcome to season 2.  We know 2020 was a rough one and we wanted to check in as the year came to a close. On this episode, we gave a recap of how our 2020 went, from coronavirus to online schooling, isolation, and Zoom breakout rooms. We also talked about our New Year’s resolutions and things we want to leave in 2020 (there’s a lot of them). Thanks for coming back, we appreciate all of you!
