Tea With Tay Podcast

A roller coaster ride of highs and lows, the last episode of the third season of Tea With Tay ends on a sublime note with PR & Comms whiz, Elizabeth Osho, founder and CEO of PR company, So.Me Solutions. On Tay's couch, Elizabeth takes us down corridors of opulence as she shares her childhood experience, growing up as one of the grandkids of the first female medical doctor in West Africa, Elizabeth Abimbola Awoliyi. It's however not entirely a rosy experience as Elizabeth had to grow up shuffling between two worlds; her father's and her mother's amidst psychological warfare with her stepmother. We're also taken on a wild ride from Ikoyi, to Ikeja, England and back to Lagos as little Liz grows into Liz Omoja, the TV presenter and recruitment officer with the red convertible and endless inches of hair and dwindling wealth. She then becomes Liz, the stargirl and online editor of Genevieve Mag before setting up shop as founder of PR Company, So.Me Solutions. Now a wife and mother to a toddler, Elizabeth shares how even in marriage and while running a thriving business backed by a man she loves, she'd encountered trials, battling infertility for over 5 years and constantly losing money to failed IVF cycles. A true reflection of the capricious nature of life, this season finale is a story of overcoming traumas to be a better person and just as highlighted in Elizabeth's book, "Who Do You Think You Are?" teaches the ability to fall 7 times and get up 8. This episode is for anyone who's scared to take on their next challenge and is in doubt of their abilities or needs a source of inspiration. This episode is for me & you.

As the third season of Tea With Tay begins to wind down, Taymesan is joined by electrifying soul singer, Timi Dakolo who shares with Taymesan how his journey into music began— surprisingly, by accident. Raised by his late grandmother much like Tay, Timi shares extensively on his colourful childhood growing up in Port Harcourt. In Tea With Tay fashion, we’re intimated on Timi Dakolo’s music origin story and how he grew up as the choir boy whose voice was too different to be appreciated by members of the choir to become the winner of the first ever West African Idols music contest. That win was however his first step on a long journey to stardom as Timi had to conquer his lack of knowledge in the art of making music, by learning how to write music, an act through which he graced the airwaves with several evergreen songs. On this episode, Timi’s humorous Port-Harcourt persona takes center stage and we meet the Timi Dakolo we never knew while being regaled with stories of life in Port Harcourt, how he defied the odds, his viewpoint on family as a family man himself as well as his latest album “The Chorus Leader”.
