   YOU NEED MORE THAN BRANDING TO BE SUCCESSFUL - FT. TOLU AKINYEMI

   FROM INNER CHILD TO INNER LION: BUILDING IDENTITY AT EVERY STAGE OF LIFE | FT. TOLU AKINYEMI What happens when a man stops chasing validation and starts building identity from within? In this episode of The Urbane Bloke Experience, we sit down with award-winning author, poet, speaker, and publisher Tolu Akinyemi, popularly known as “The Roaring Lion” or “The Lion of Newcastle.” Tolu has authored more than twenty books across poetry, essays, short stories, and children’s literature. Through his writing, he explores confidence, identity, resilience, kindness, self-awareness, and personal growth. Together, we unpack: • The difference between identity and validation • Why many men struggle with self-worth • The role reading and writing play in personal development • How stories shape confidence in children • Raising emotionally intelligent children in a validation-driven culture • Building self-trust and inner confidence • Why kindness and strong boundaries can coexist • What it truly means to “roar” Whether you’re a parent, a creative, a leader, or simply someone navigating life and purpose, this conversation will challenge you to look inward and build a stronger foundation for who you are becoming.

   Think you fooled God? [ with Jeffrey ]

   Think you fooled God? Or are you just running from becoming who you’re meant to be? In this episode, Jeffery and I dive into the real journey of becoming. Not the polished version. The honest one. We talk about consistency when no one is watching. Faith when life doesn’t make sense. The tension between who you were and who you’re trying to be. From growing up in Nigeria to shaping identity, style, and mindset. This is a conversation about growth that feels uncomfortable but necessary. Real talk. Real reflection. No pretending. If you’ve ever questioned your path, your faith, or your identity… this one is for you. if you haven't already...
