   You Have to Go Out and Experience Life! - Ally Dosumu

   What happens when you stop living life the way you're expected to and start experiencing it on your own terms? In this episode, I sit down with Nigerian travel creator and fitness entrepreneur Ally Dosumu to talk about her decision to go out more, meet new people, explore the world, and intentionally open herself up to new experiences. Ally shares her journey from studying Pharmacology and working in the pharmaceutical industry to quitting her 9–5, building businesses, and becoming a travel creator. We talk about making friends as an adult, the rise of social communities in Lagos, exploring Nigeria, creating travel content, working with brands, and the opportunities available to new creators. We also get into the realities of travelling and creating content in Nigeria, her most adventurous trips, affordable ways to explore, and her vision for showcasing the beauty of Nigeria across all 36 states. Sometimes, you don't need to have the entire journey figured out. You just need to move. Go out more. Experience life.
