Notas del episodio

Nigerian-born artist Ayola shares how walking away from a decade-long career in the pharmaceutical industry allowed him to reconnect with his true self. After years of professional success but growing emptiness, Ayola made the bold choice to leave Canada, return to Nigeria, and rebuild his life as a musician — confronting identity loss, financial fear, and the cultural expectations that equated stability with success. Now, as a touring artist moving between Africa, Canada, and the UK, Ayola unpacks what it means to live a life that actually feels like your own — one that values creativity, purpose, and trust in the unknown.
