If you’re going through a difficult season in life, struggling financially, emotionally, professionally, or even trying to figure out your next move, understand that you are not alone. Talk to someone. And when I say talk to someone, I don’t mean approach someone with an expectation that they must give you money…, wait first I’m going somewhere, don’t turn every conversation into a financial request. Sometimes, what you need most is not money but perspective, direction, sound advice, a different way of looking at a problem, or simply someone who can listen without judging you. Somewhere in your circle, there is probably a confidant someone with sound judgment, experience, wisdom and the capacity to engage in meaningful conversations. Reach out to that person. Be honest about what you’re going through. Explain your challenges, your fears, your limitations and where you feel stuck. Don’t be afraid to be vulnerable. However, remember something important, the person you’re approaching may also be dealing with battles you know nothing about. Nobody has life completely figured out. Having a successful career, running a business, occupying a leadership position or appearing financially comfortable does not mean someone is without personal struggles. This is why you must learn to separate seeking counsel from seeking financial rescue. Established people do not necessarily help by handing out money. More often than not, they offer ideas, connections, strategies, opportunities, experience and perspectives that can fundamentally change how you approach your circumstances. A meaningful conversation with the right person can introduce you to an opportunity that money alone cannot buy. One thoughtful suggestion can save you years of making the wrong decisions. One professional connection can open a door you didn’t even know existed. And sometimes, all you need is someone who can challenge your thinking, tell you an uncomfortable truth and help you see possibilities beyond your present difficulties. Don’t make every relationship transactional. Don’t measure people’s willingness to help you by how much money they are willing to give. Learn to value intellectual generosity, mentorship, guidance and access to knowledge. Of course, there is nothing wrong with asking for financial assistance when you genuinely need it. But don’t make financial assistance the only language through which you seek support. Sometimes, the best thing you can receive from someone is not money in your account, but an idea in your head that changes the direction of your life.

I saw different videos of young mothers dealing with severe case of depression or do I call it mental breakdown. See if you’re in the middle-lower class Nigeria like me, do not have more than 2 kids. No human can take care of more than 2 children with no inhouse help without running stylishly mad. Like real madness , one mom said she dropped pressing iron inside the freezer and placed frozen chicken inside the laundry basket, while still looking for the blender. 😪
