HOW BEING VULNERABLE ABOUT MY 2 FAILED MARRIAGES HAS IMPACTED ME.

NO MATTER HOW AMICABLE IT IS, DIVORCE HAS DEEP IMPACT. Divorce is not the end of the world but divorce has severe impact on the parties involved and all their loved ones. Sometimes, you feel so lonely. Sometimes, you feel bad (times even guilty). Sometimes, you feel anxious and worried. Unless it is absolutely necessary (a personal conviction of the person involved), divorce is not a good experience. The flip side to this is that some marriages are better dead than patched. In "Deadly Emotions", the Author said 'some marriages damage children more than divorce will.' And I concur. I have learnt that some marriages help spouses flourish. Some marriages make spouses depreciate. Some divorce make the individuals flourish. Some divorces make the individuals suffer. THERE IS NO UNIVERSAL RULE!!! In this episode, Stella Uchechi Nnodi shares a VERY EMOTIONAL TALE of what she has experienced having left 2 marriages. In her story, she sobs, screams, laughs, gesticulates and also lightens up the room with deep stuff. Imagine telling the Holy Spirit to 'have a good day' 😂 😂 😂 or imagine feeling raw literal 🔥 beneath your brain 😭 😢 😭 ... this episode will touch you (unless your heart don set with rock 😜). If you know any divorcee or anyone who is having a turbulent marriage, please let them listen to this episode. It may define some life-transforming contexts. Who knows!!! Follow Stella on Instagram. Her handle is @myna.meisstella15 . maktub!!! - #TheOctopus

WHAT FAMILY STRUCTURE TAUGHT ME ABOUT MYSELF.

<p>WHAT IS YOUR FAMILY TREE?</p> <p><br></p> <p>Imagine getting on an international flight in the 80's at the age of 12 with your siblings to boarding school in the UK. &nbsp;😳😳😳</p> <p><br></p> <p>Imagine working with &nbsp;'The Bulldozer' and being thrown in at the Business deep end and literally resigning every day 😂😂🤣</p> <p><br></p> <p>Imagine losing your soul mate, friend, lover and paddy after 25 memorable years of marriage. 💔 ❤️‍🩹&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>Imagine presenting to an International Board of Directors as a green horn, and being bombarded with tough questions in the Board room. 🎯📚💰</p> <p><br></p> <p>There is so much to imagine with Aunty Zee. This episode with Hajia Zainab Mustapha Jaji is easily a masterpiece. Giving this episode a title was a challenge for us because it was a LIFE MASTERCLASS. We scribbled several titles before we concluded on the one we published.&nbsp;</p> <p><br></p> <p>I promise you, listening to this episode will have you reflecting about life, love, and living. Everything about Aunty Zee and her full family tree (I was privileged to see around 7 generations of family tree in the Legacy Centre ) is LEGACY!!! You will feel it in this episode and you will thank me for bringing it to you.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Enjoy with me … and don’t forget to share with someone in your family. This is another family meeting episode.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Thank you.</p> <p><br></p> <p>m a k t u b!!!</p> <p><br></p> <p>The Octopus</p>
