Hi, I’m Sam,    

 Hi, I'm Sam,  It is very important to keep at the back of your mind that a lot of things we do in life are only subjective to others. Just like you can't like everything you see or everyone you meet, that is also the way it translates to us. A lot of us feel bad when someone can't seem to like us or anything we've done but want to reserve their right to like and dislike things; do you see how that doesn't make sense? We scroll through social media giving our unsolicited opinions on people's fashion, products, ideas, and lives but we feel bad and complain when people do the same to us.

 Hi, I’m Sam and welcome to another interview session with Maduako Chioma Judith, An Artist, Founder of F.A.W Place (Food, Art, and Wine) and one of the best Sip n Paint curators in Nigeria. Let’s dive in! INTERVIEW – ART BY JUDITH

 Hi, I'm Sam, Well, I don't think anyone initially goes through life thinking they're not loved, a couple or more things may have made them start to think that way and in most cases, if not all comes down to action; how people act towards us or things we can't get ourselves to do or stop doing; just like God showed us love by sending his only son to die for our sins (John 3:16). Often you hear people say "Show me that you love me" and not "Tell me you love"; words of assurance is still very much valid but it only holds water for individuals who keep and stand by their word and not for people who say one thing and do the other and of course before you can tell if someone would keep their words the person must've shown you through actions that they do.  

Hi, I'm Sam, It is normal for every Christian to have a base scripture; although the passages change with inspiration from the Holy Spirit during different seasons of your life; it is not compulsory but I do think it is very necessary. Your base scripture is how your Christian journey is shaped and helps you make decisions and know how best to interact with God especially, then with your interaction with people, whether someone of similar faith or not.

I n sharp contrast to the Western modeling landscape, Nigeria, like many other African countries, has yet to attach a direct value to this profession. Despite regularly delivering amazing clothes, fashion creatives, entrepreneurs, style strategists, and designers frequently lack the finances to fairly reward fashion models for their efforts. For most models, it is best defined as a "work very hard, earn very little" scenario.

  In the dynamic world of fashion, we have witnessed the ascent and descent of numerous brands, each fueled by a burning desire to see their designs grace international runways or adorn the shelves of prestigious boutiques worldwide. While flamboyance might catch the eye, it's the meticulous attention to detail woven into each piece of fabric that transforms it into a meticulously crafted work of art. To carve their place in this competitive arena, fashion designers and house owners must prioritize every crucial step on their journey to the top. Beyond crafting awe-inspiring designs, they recognize the pivotal role played by casting directors –

  In the journey of nurturing and raising our children, we often find ourselves at a crossroads where the roles of each parent are not equally acknowledged or embraced. It's a true reality that child training has historically been perceived as the responsibility of mothers, leaving fathers to be providers without fully engaging in the crucial aspects of upbringing. The repercussions of this disparity are profound.
