Hello friend.
How are you?
It’s February. Time really does fly, doesn’t it?
How was January for you?
January was a great month for me.
I stretched myself. I put structure in place for my life and business. I secured new clients. I launched a podcast. I maintained ‘routines for greatness’. I had some good relational wins at home and at work. It was good all around.
And you. I’m grateful for your attention. You are a kind reader from the internet who signed up to follow along my journey.
About that journey…
I sometimes feel guilty for being too broad. For not being streamlined enough in the value I want to share with you.
But then I realize that what piques your interest is not as much what I’m building as it is the journey itself, and this fun lad behind it all.
I flatter myself. But I do want to take the opportunity to clarify what this is going forward.
The Three Pillars
Being a multi-hyphenate is a blessing and can be a curse. A lot of the clarity I have experienced in the last few months has simply been about putting structure in place for all that I am.
I’m glad to share that structure with you now, especially as relates to this newsletter you signed up for. I now have three newsletter publications:
The Charm Within: This is my primary personal newsletter. The name “The Charm Within” is something I came up with as a teenager to describe my muse. Through this newsletter, I share my journey with you, including updates on my projects: the music, the podcast, the books and more. If you are receiving this email, this is the podcast you have signed up for.
Your Next Chapter: This is a newsletter dedicated to my coaching practice. As you likely know, if you found me through LinkedIn, I run a coaching business aimed at helping career misfits step boldly into their next career move. I will be writing specifically to my clients and prospects. If the subject material interests you, please subscribe here.
Honest Believer: As you may be aware, I am a person of faith. Honest Believer is a dedicated to sharing Christian commentary especially from my growth journey and perspective. I believe that’s what we all must strive to be—honest believers. I’ll explain more what that means to those interested. If that’s you, subscribe here.
Full disclosure:
I may have, based on my specific knowledge of you, already placed you on some of the other lists. You may not need to bother subscribing to them.
I also may not have done that—especially if you came here from LinkedIn.
If you want to reply and let me know what content interests you, that would be a great way for me to ensure I send only what you want.
You can reply with 1, 2, 3 or just say The Works, which means all three!
That’s all for now, dear reader.
Structure precedes scale. I hope this inspires you to put some structure to your goals.
I will try to maintain a weekly cadence going forward. I may also email twice a week, if that’s alright with you. I enjoy writing to you, and I do have lots to share.
Until then, let’s win together.
Yours truly,
Taiwo.
PPS: to be sure we stay connected and my emails don’t end up in your junk folder, here are two things I’d highly appreciate:
- Please mark this email as “Not spam”

Either of these would help the mail server know you do know me, and gave me permission to reach out.
