There’s a Yoruba proverb that says, “The wealthy person who hoards, hoards their peace as well.” In today’s world, “wealth” is often measured in digits, possessions, or how many zeroes show up after your name. But according to Ifa, wealth isn’t just about accumulation—it’s about circulation. Ifa teaches that when we hoard what we have,…
There’s nothing peaceful about chasing success that doesn’t feel aligned. Many entrepreneurs start their journey with good intentions — freedom, flexibility, impact. But over time, the pressure to “keep up” can replace the original purpose with pure survival mode. Ifa reminds us: “Àṣẹ without ìwà (good character) is chaos.” You can have strategy, followers, or…
The Crossroad Between Survival and Integrity We’ve all been there — stuck in a job that drains us, where silence feels safer than honesty, and paycheck feels heavier than peace. Leaving a toxic workplace is never easy. It challenges our sense of loyalty, our courage, and our character (Ìwà) — one of the cornerstones of…
When Life Feels “Off” Ever had a season where nothing feels right — you’re restless, comparing your journey to others, or feel stuck despite trying? Ifa teaches that these aren’t random emotions. They’re spiritual signals from your Ori (inner consciousness) showing you that you’ve drifted from your path. Recognizing these signs is the first step…
October is a month of transition. The days shorten, the air cools, and nature begins its slow preparation for rest. In times of change, it’s easy to lose focus, become overwhelmed, or fall into old habits that don’t serve us. Ifa reminds us that destiny unfolds step by step — but only when we are…
Purpose Is More Than a Job Title When most people hear “purpose,” they think of career: doctor, teacher, entrepreneur, healer. But in Ifa, destined purpose (ayanmo) runs deeper than a title or job. It is about alignment with your Ori (inner head, spiritual consciousness) and the character (Ìwà) you bring into every area of life….
Why Habits Need a Regular Check-Up Habits are the building blocks of character (Ìwà). They shape our daily lives more than willpower or big goals ever could. But here’s the truth: even strong habits slip without review. That’s why a habit audit matters. Just like a financial audit reveals spending patterns, an Ifa-inspired habit audit…
The Power of Small Wins Most people chase big milestones — promotions, debt-free living, finishing the book, running the marathon. But in Ifa’s wisdom, it is not the huge leaps that build character. It is the small, consistent wins that prepare the ground for lasting growth. Celebrating these micro-moments matters. Why? Because acknowledgment turns effort…
Why Community Shapes Growth We all want to grow, but growth rarely happens in isolation. Even with discipline and determination, there are days we fall short. That’s where community — Awujọ in Ifa — becomes essential. In Yoruba wisdom, Awujọ represents more than gathering. It is the web of accountability, encouragement, and shared responsibility that…
Motivation Will Not Save You We’ve all felt it — the burst of energy that comes with starting something new. You wake up excited, make plans, and even post about it. But then, motivation slips away. The excitement fades, and the habit crumbles. Ifa teaches us a deeper truth: motivation is temporary, discipline is eternal….
