David Ojeyinka: Rise To The Occasion

Nkechi's guest is none other than David Ojeyinka, founder of Fresh Start Hub and host of podcast by the same name. Fresh Start Hub is a platform dedicated to helping newcomers, immigrants and international students achieve their career goals faster through initiatives like the Freshstart podcast, the Freshstart mentorship program, the Freshstart career information sessions.

David is active in the community and he currently serves on the board of Horizons for Youth - a shelter for at-risk and homeless youth between the ages of 16-24 years old in Toronto that provides youth with the support they need to escape from the cycle of poverty and leave the streets behind.

He did not have it easy growing up, however, he has not taken the effort that it has taken to get him here to Canada for granted. He's faced many dilemmas, but continues to rise. He is a true leader, setting an example of how being in service is a clear way for a path forward in life. He's pushing and pressing in life, and doors are opening.

Throughout this interview, David demonstrates what is possible if we simply believe in ourselves and keep faith that everything will work out!

Great fact that I learnt from David - I was his very first "yes" for his podcast, and this interview is his very first!!

About the Podcast

The Empowered in My Skin Podcast
A podcast designed to help humans everywhere think in ways that is empowering.
This Podcast is all about helping humans think in ways that is empowering. Empowered humans, empower humans and our goal at Empowered in My Skin is to help develop one billion humans who are lead dominos for empowerment. Regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, etc., everyone deserves to be empowered in the skin that they are in.

Empowered humans are thriving humans. It is our birthright to thrive. When we own our thrive, we are operating from a position of empowerment, and celebrating life in the present moment without fear. It is human nature to feel uncertain, but why does it have to take us away from our thrive, our creativity, and throw us off balance? 

If we can recognize that being empowered is us choosing to accept all that is, then we have the ability to step into clarity and live in the present moment. Our "now" is all that we have and where our infinite empowered energy resides.
