With Fikayo Podcast

91.This is a conversation I only have about once a year.Life is beautiful—but it can also be hard to navigate. And there comes a point in adulthood where no one can make the decisions for you, no one can carry you through the work, and no one can fight on your behalf.In this episode, I’m speaking honestly about what it means to fight for yourself as a young adult. We talk about the moment life stops feeling automatic, the danger of pretending when things aren’t okay, and why responsibility, discipline, and honesty are essential parts of growth.This is not a hype episode. It’s a sober one. A reminder that while growth isn’t always gentle, it is always worth it. We also touch on faith, effort, and why partnering with God requires movement, not passivity.If you’re in a season where something needs to change—this conversation is for you.Press play when you’re ready for the truth.Follow me on Instagram: @fiikayoPodcast Instagram: @withfikayoSponsored by BetterHelp.Get 10% off your first month here:https://betterhelp.com/fiikayoDon’t forget to like, subscribe, and stay for the story.#WithFikayo#EarlyLeadership#FightForYourself#QuietDiscipline#YoungAdultLife
