Ihuanaya gets real with us on her personal journey as an academic to finding her love for creative writing over the years. She talks to us about her affinity (9:24) for love-themed anecdotes and expression, even across her writing, alluding to the inherent desire to open your heart to love and be loved even when you have been hurt in the past. She also gets vulnerable (17:21) with us about her fears of writing fiction coming from a poetry background, her inclination to shy away from the spotlight, and valuing friends and family who push you to reach for the stars. We also discuss (26:34) her new book, "The Heartbeat of Christmas Magic," and her anxiety throughout the process of writing and publishing her first book. Enjoy the episode!Key Takeaways:1. We have to start being intentional about love and existing in love.2. Having a community of people who believe in you sometimes more than yourself is critical to your success in life.3. We have to be willing to chart new territories and test our capacity at some point.Listen Now On:Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, Pocket Cast, Goodpod, Google Podcasts, Afripod, Jamit, and all DSPsConnect with Us:Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠NkemCreatives⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter/X: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@nkemcreatives⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Nkem Creatives⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@nkemcreatives⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Resources & Mentions:Order the Author's Book on Selar: ⁠The Heartbeat of Christmas Magic⁠Guest’s Social Media (Instagram): ⁠@nanyaerondu⁠Episode Credits:Episode Host: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Anita Chinwendu Opara⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Audio Producer & Writer: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Daniel Odia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Podcast Manager: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Daniel Odia⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Show Owner: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Nkem Creatives⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Nkem Creatives brings you insightful conversations that celebrate African storytelling and literature.
