Be True to Yourself | #maztalks

It's time to do what you want! Don't let social pressures stop you from expressing yourself. Stand firm in your beliefs and be true to yourself, but don't let that stop you from trying new things or taking risks. The world is a big place and there is always something new to try out. Be confident in your decisions and live life for yourself!

Hard Adulting Truths I've Learnt | #maztalks

Again... I recorded this at 12:30 am. Of course "adulting" is difficult. Young adults frequently struggle with the adjustment to complete independence after being abruptly deprived of childhood comforts and assistance. Living away from their parents' houses removes them from the full range of structural and emotional supports that come with it and replaces them with the lonesome, wide unknown of the outside world.

Why I left the SDA Church - The Truth | #maztalks

It was challenging to record this episode. You all deserve to know, even though it wasn't simple to disclose my business. There are so many young people who have experienced trauma and must cope with it. This has been a part of my life since August 2018. Yes, I did reveal the culprits' identities, and I won't be removing the episode. I have received the best support from my family and friends, who have been fantastic. I've been crying about it all this week, but I'm now able to move on with my l...

Misrepresentation on Reality TV | #maztalks

Guys, I can't believe I recorded this at 4 a.m. After reading Dominique Samuel's tweet on TheShadeborough, I realised I wanted to share my thoughts with you all. As you are all aware, Love Island has begun, and there has been outrage about the misrepresentation of the United Kingdom. We see the same old stereotypes season after season.

Fresh Start | #maztalks

For anyone, each day is a new chapter. Do you find yourself in a loop in your life? Do you want to make some changes and start over?

Be Uncomfortable | #maztalks

We grow mostly by our ability to take risks by breaking outside of our comfort zones. However, we are often hesitant to take the first move. Comfort zones, in reality, aren't about comfort; they're about fear. To get out, you must first break the shackles of fear. Once you've done that, you'll discover that taking risks and improving as a result of them is something you'll like. Getting out of your comfort zone will be terrifying at first. But, as I previously stated, you don't have to leap out ...

BBL PANDEMIC! | #maztalks

In the last two years, there's been a rise in Brazilian butt lifts. Everywhere I look all I'm seeing is surgery after surgery. Every time I scroll on my for you page I'm loaded with young girls vlogging their BBL experience. I see young girls getting bullied for their body shape and it's upsetting. We need to embrace our natural bodies and love our imperfections. Surgery or no surgery you're the same person. Before you put yourself under the knife, do intensive research!

Leave Them | #maztalks

There’s no point starting the year on a lie. Every year we tell ourselves we’re going to change a, b and c. By mid-January, we have all forgotten about what our goals are. Let’s start the year off by looking at the people around us. As much as we want to be successful with our friends, sometimes we need to leave them be. You can not be carrying around dead weight. When you put more time into your craft and fulfilling your commitments, you’ll start to realise you don’t have time for the stuff you...

Growing up sda... | #maztalks

This episode is based on my experience growing up as a Seventh Day Adventist. I have been asked so many questions over the past couple of years and it’s time I answer them for you. This episode is not me bashing the church in any way shape or form. 80% of what I have said in this episode has been vocalised during my time in the church. Whatever church you go to you is up to you. This was not the church for me and there is nothing more to it. I’d love to have conversations with those who feel as ...

Here’s a quick survival guide I’ve created to help ease you into university. I’m finally finished my three years and I’ve learnt a lot. It’s time I share it with you all.

Pay Attention To The Signs | #maztalks

After speaking to a few people, I came to a realisation that we all lived similar childhoods. Even though our parents were present they were not emotionally and physically there. Teenagers go through a lot. They need someone to help them along their journey. Without proper support, these teenagers have mental health problems, eating disorders, and so much more. We must see the signs in our children or siblings so we can help them. Instrumental by Island Dre (Instagram @island_dre) Contact me: li...

Let the Music Speak! ft Prince TY | #maztalks

I had the pleasure of interviewing Prince TY. I love hearing people's stories and this one for the books. Prince TY is a composer, singer, and musician. Ghanaian-born, English-raised. He was the key drummer in his church growing up, so playing the drums and anything music-related came easy to him. Prince TY's has always been surrounded by individuals in the industry from a young age. It never dawned on him that he was destined to be an artist. Even his debut single was an 'accident.' The acciden...

How to network properly? | #maztalks

This is an episode you do not want to miss. Networking has always been a skill I have always had. Over the past few years, I polished those skills and I want to share them with you. In this episode, I discuss the importance and purpose of networking. As well as, how you can improve your networking skills. “The richest people in the world look for and build networks, everyone else looks for work. Marinate on that for a minute.” “The richest people in the world look for and build networks, everyon...

Being a Leader 101 | #maztalks

Being a leader is harder than what people think. They see what we do and do not think about what goes on behind the scenes. In this episode, I explain the traits of a good leader as well as my leadership experiences. Throughout my life, I have been in many leadership positions starting as early as year 9. Being in those roles have open doors for me as equipping me for life. Leadership varies from person to person people all over the world, and it also means different things in different circumst...

Spreading Awareness Effectively | #maztalks

Over the past few months, I have realised a pattern and it is time I address it. Spreading awareness about whatever you care about can go left if you do not use the tools required to spread awareness effectively. Nearly everybody will help any cause these days. If it's fitness, social causes, wildlife, or politics –you name it, a believer is there. Non-government and non-profit organisations, on the other hand, not only need donors, but also ongoing recognition in order to continue to raise mone...

Time to make sacrifices | #maztalks

The key to success is making sacrifices. We save our money and time for something more meaningful as we lose what we want right now. This brings us closer to our true goals. We really want something, not just something that we want at this time. Sacrifice is more critical than success and without sacrificing something you can't succeed.

Instant Gratification is killing my people | #maztalks

In the past year, the increase of people altering their natural looks to fit into western beauty standards has risen more than ever. More females are getting Brazilian butt lift surgery, some are taking substances such as Apetamin to put on weight. Regardless, the current generation I am in does not want to work for what they want. We live in a world whereby people would rather pay a lot of money for someone else to do the job rather than doing it ourselves. People who fall into the quick gratif...

Where do we draw the line?| #maztalks

Muyi and I discuss a tweet I came across last week. Where do we cross the line when it comes to money? Can we help others without using money? Why is it hard for black people to level up? Is it an obligation to look after your blood relatives when you become successful? Instrumental by Temi_montana (Instagram) Twitter: @Maztalks_ Instagram: @Maztalks_ Snapchat: Maazz.a
