What happens when a serial entrepreneur takes a leap from Nigeria to Canada and builds business bridges across continents? You get Chris Chime—a man of grit, grace, and plenty of entrepreneurial spice. In this powerful episode, Chris walks us through his journey of growing up Igbo (business was in his blood!), starting a pest control company from scratch, pivoting to logistics in Canada, and maintaining integrity while managing cross-continental ventures. We talk about cultural transitions, immigrant hustle, starting over in a new land, the Nigerian community in diaspora, and what it means to make peace with the 80/20 rule—even when your employees are “corporately stealing.”Gems on mindset shifts, knowing when to pivot, and trusting the process await you. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, immigrant, or dreamer, this one’s for you.

Join us as we launch our March series spotlighting entrepreneurs who are driving a new era of growth, innovation, and African ownership. In this episode, we sit down with Akaego Okoye—lawyer, business strategist, and founder of African Business Stories—for a deep dive into the realities of building, scaling, and sustaining businesses in Africa. She unpacks common misconceptions, explores the power of regional trade, and explains why an "Africa First" mindset is critical for sustainable growth and self-sufficiency.

Throughout our conversation, we highlight some of Africa’s biggest success stories, from Botswana’s free education model and Kenya’s fintech revolution to Rwanda’s thriving startup scene and Nigeria’s leadership in local content policies that ensure African ownership in key industries. Akaego also breaks down Africa’s aviation and infrastructure challenges, from long-haul travel delays to inefficiencies in cross-border payments, and discusses how solutions like the Pan-African Payment and Settlement System (PAPSS) and Lobito Corridor could revolutionize trade across the continent.

Beyond business, Akaego shares the hidden currency of success: networking, relationship-building, and storytelling. She reflects on how meaningful connections have shaped her career, how visibility empowers entrepreneurs, and why African women in business must take up space and own their narratives. She also delves into her pioneering work in business aviation, playing a key role in launching Nigeria’s first private jet terminal and reshaping corporate air travel in Africa. She emphasizes the importance of streamlined infrastructure and better connectivity for economic growth and trade across the continent.

As Africa reclaims its economic identity, this conversation unpacks both the challenges and opportunities in intra-African trade, infrastructure gaps, payment solutions, and business ecosystems that prioritize African entrepreneurs. Tune in now for a robust conversation on Africa’s next chapter!

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 사랑하는 이의 자살 후의 삶|The One with Debra Blaylock - Beyond the Shadow: Life After the Suicide of a Loved One: Episode 22 (2024)

TW: This episode discusses suicide and grief.

In this powerful episode, we sit down with my dear friend, Debra Blaylock, who courageously shares her journey of grief and resilience following her husband's suicide, which took place just before the COVID-19 lockdown. The timing added layers of isolation and loneliness to her already immense sorrow, complicating the healing process. This episode aims to explore the immediate and prolonged aftermath of such a tragic loss and to share, in Debra’s words, how “the pain never leaves; it’s transferred down to the family.” Debra talks about the invisible nature of pain—how it can quietly consume loved ones and leave a permanent impact on those left behind. She reflects, “You have to realize you are not a person; you are just involved,” encapsulating how grief reshapes one’s identity. Debra stresses the importance of recognizing the signs of distress, having open conversations about mental health, and seeking support when needed. Her story is a poignant reminder that although the pain may be overwhelming, there is always hope, and no one is ever truly alone. She leaves listeners with the crucial message: “There is always hope, and you are never truly alone.” This conversation sheds light on the silent struggles many face and offers hope and guidance for anyone navigating a similar path. If you or someone you know is struggling, please reach out. Together, we can break the silence around mental health and be a source of light and support for one another.

정체성의 다리|The One with Dr. Kelechi Ibe-Lamberts - Cultural Alchemy: On Being Black Transnational: Episode 18 (2024)

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents:정체성의 다리|The One with Dr. Kelechi Ibe-Lamberts - Cultural Alchemy: On Being Black Transnational: Episode 18 (2024) 

Dr. Kelechi Ibe-Lamberts has such an extraordinary personality and rich experience. I had the most incredible chat with him. He’s not just a clinical associate professor at the University of Illinois Chicago School of Public Health—he’s the powerhouse behind the My Black is Transnational podcast. Talk about impressive credentials!

Born in Lagos and sent on a plane to the U.S. at just 8 years old, Dr. Ibe-Lamberts was raised in Chicago, embodying the essence of juggling multiple identities. Imagine a home filled with Christian, Muslim, and Ghanaian influences! As a 1.5-generation Nigerian-American, he gracefully balances these vibrant cultures with humor and poise. His journey is nothing short of inspirational, and we shared laughs and deep insights, leaving me with a fresh perspective on navigating cultural identities. What’s even more fascinating is his personal life—he’s married to an African American woman, and together they have three children. Their family is a beautiful testament to cultural blending, and Dr. Ibe-Lamberts’ reflections on raising a bicultural family are both heartwarming and insightful.

From mastering grocery shopping as a young immigrant to his current work fighting health disparities for refugees and immigrant communities, his story radiates resilience and passion. One of the most touching moments was hearing him describe being "Kelly" in Chicago while reclaiming his true name, Kelechi. It’s raw, personal, and deeply moving.

Let’s not forget his incredible family journey—how his second mother and distant father shaped his life. His shift from aspiring MD to embracing public health with a focus on transnational issues? Absolutely fascinating! This episode isn’t just about cultural integration; it’s about how love, respect, and persistence create something extraordinary. Don’t miss out—hit play and join us on this remarkable journey!

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 역경 리더십|The One with Dr. Otito Iwuchukwu - Navigating Academia and Workplace Challenges as Women of Color: Episode 17 (2024)

Imagine a conversation where wisdom meets sheer dynamism—precisely what I experienced recently with the remarkable Dr. Otito Iwuchukwu. This isn’t just any chat; it’s an exploration into the brilliance of a woman who redefines what it means to be a powerhouse!

Dr. Otito and I go way back—six years of friendship and mentorship, and she’s been a rock in my academic journey. Our chat was nothing short of exhilarating. Her journey from Nigeria to the U.S. is like something out of a movie, filled with grit and determination. When she arrived at Temple University to discover that her degree program would no longer be offered, most would’ve panicked, but not Dr. Otito! She reinvented her academic path and made it work. Talk about resilience!

Another jaw-dropping moment was when she tackled a difficult committee member during her Ph.D. journey. Instead of giving in, she trusted her intuition and prayed—yes, that committee member left! Divine intervention, anyone?

Dr. Otito also shared her insights on navigating subtle exclusion in professional settings, the art of knowing when to leave an unsupportive workplace, and the power of documenting interactions to protect yourself. Her advice on dealing with unconscious bias and creating safe spaces for communication was pure gold. Let’s not forget her wisdom on work-life balance. She emphasized that joy in work is crucial and that finding fulfillment should be the goal, not endless grinding.

This conversation was packed with powerful insights and those “aha!” moments we crave. So, if you want to be inspired and empowered, don’t miss out! Tune in now and soak up Dr. Otito’s incredible wisdom. Trust me, you’ll thank yourself later!
