  Navigating and surviving medical school from a Doctor's perspecctive 19.07.2026 1h 8min

  Medical school is often described as one of the most demanding academic journeys, but what is it really like from someone who has lived through it?In this episode of the Dear Me Podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Dr. Adewumi Ayomide, a Dentist, mental health advocate, and graduate of Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU). Together, we had an honest, insightful, and enjoyable conversation about her journey through medical school—the highs, the challenges, the lessons, and the realities that many people don't get to hear about.Whether you're an aspiring medical student, currently studying medicine or dentistry, or simply trying to find your footing in university, this episode is filled with practical advice and encouraging insights to help you navigate the journey with more confidence. We discussed what to expect before entering medical school, how to cope with the academic pressure, the importance of protecting your mental health, and the mindset that can help you succeed even when things get difficult.If you've ever wondered what medical school is really like, how to survive the demands of studying medicine or dentistry, or you're looking for guidance as a university student, this conversation is for you. My hope is that this episode answers some of the questions you've been asking and reminds you that while the journey may not be easy, you don't have to walk it alone.I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I enjoyed recording it. Don't forget to share it with a friend who is aspiring to study medicine or dentistry, someone currently in medical school, or anyone who could use a little encouragement on their academic journey.To reach her:Email: aayomideaadewumi@gmail.comPhone: 09023099504Follow Dear Me Podcast on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dearmebyomowumi?igsh=MTkyNmxpOXFjOWd1bw==Email us: aboutdvoice@gmail.com

  When life gets tough! omething to keep you going 26.04.2026 11min

  We all have periods in our lives when we are not 'our usual selves'. Periods where some words of comfort and reassurance would go a long way; however, unfortunately, everyone seems to be very busy these days with their own issues and finds themselves doing so little to pay attention to the needs of others.In the spirit of loving and looking out for each other, I created this episode to remind you that you are worthy and that you should keep going.Details in the audio!Click to listenEmail: aboutdvoice@gmail.comPhone: +234 810 872 3801

  How to achieve any goal you set 05.04.2026 22min

  Most people don't have a goal-achievement problem. They have a goal-selection problem.Before you build a system, you have to ask the harder question — is this even your goal? Did you choose it, or did you absorb it from the people around you, from social media, from what everyone else on campus seems to be doing?In this episode, we go deep on two things: how to vet a goal before you give your life to it, and how to build a system that actually carries you to the finish line. We pull from the frameworks of top performers and the most important books written on this subject — from James Clear, Cal Newport, Greg McKeown, Carol Dweck, Steven Pressfield, and more.You'll walk away knowing how to filter your goals by origin, resonance, and real cost. How to close the clarity gap between a wish and a real target. How to anchor your goals to identity so motivation stops being the variable. How to design an execution system built on discipline, not feelings. And how to face the resistance that shows up every time you try to do something that actually matters.Email:aboutdvoice@gmail.comWhatsApp: +234 810 872 3801

  Linkedin | The stereotypes | What to do 15.03.2026 14min

  For the longest time, LinkedIn felt like one of those platforms many people admired from a distance but were too intimidated to step into. Maybe you’ve heard that it’s too serious, too polished, or only meant for people who already “have it all figured out.”If you’ve ever felt like you don’t quite belong there yet, you’re not alone.In this episode, I talk about everything LinkedIn, the myths, the stereotypes, and the quiet fears that keep so many people from showing up on the platform. More importantly, we begin to unlearn those ideas together.I share how you can start your LinkedIn journey in a way that feels healthy, authentic, and true to who you are, without the pressure to be perfect.Phone: +234 810 872 3801Email: abpoutdvoice@gmail.com

  An Honest Conversation 22.02.2026 13min

  In this episode, I sit down to share an honest reflection on what it really means to be a student today. Yes, books and grades matter, but if all I do is bury myself in textbooks, I risk missing out on the bigger picture. The world is moving fast, surgeries are being done in more advanced ways, accounting and finance are being reshaped by technology, and health data is changing how we understand medicine.I talk about why it’s so important to step outside the classroom bubble: read the news, follow articles, and pay attention to what’s happening in your field and beyond. If I want to stay relevant and realistic in this age of constant advancement, I have to make time to learn from the world around me, not just from my syllabus.This episode is my call to students: let’s balance our studies with curiosity about real life, because that’s how we’ll remain impactful and prepared for the future.Email: aboutdvoice@gmail.comPhone: +234 810 872 3801

  Becoming that ADULT 22.02.2026 15min

  I am sure that there are some adults that we look up to in person or on social media and wish to be like, or that we love to listen to a lot.A lot of times, it feels like these people just understand us so well, although they are afar more often, or that we just find them intriguing.The question is, how did they become such kind of adults? How can I ensure I also become one?Phone: +234 810 872 3801Email: aboudvoice@gmail.com

  Knowing and preserving your identity | It matters that you know this 11.01.2026 17min

  In this episode, I take you on a thoughtful journey into a quiet but dangerous issue, one that slowly creeps into our lives and erodes our sense of identity without us even realizing it.Not knowing who you are is more than confusion; it is a loss that affects how you think, live, and relate with the world around you. When identity is unclear, purpose becomes fragile, values become negotiable, and direction is easily lost.This episode explores why understanding your identity matters, how it shapes your decisions and relationships, and why it is something that must be consciously preserved and intentionally passed on. We discuss the subtle ways identity fades, the consequences of living disconnected from it, and the responsibility we carry to define and protect who we truly are.If you have ever questioned your sense of self, felt disconnected from your roots, or wondered what truly defines you, this conversation is for you.Phone/Chat: +234 8108723801Email: aboutdvoie@gmail.com

  THE AI TRAP: Why Young People Are Using AI Wrong — And How to Unlock the Power No One Told You About 23.11.2025 22min

  What if I told you that the real reason AI isn’t helping you is not because AI is weak… but because you’re using it in the weakest way possible?What if you discovered that the same AI that gives you shallow answers on social media could actually plan your future, rewrite your habits, improve your grades, teach you any skill, and help you think at a higher level, if only you knew how to talk to it?In this episode, I’m exposing the hidden gap: young people are surrounded by AI everywhere, yet most of them don’t know how to use it beyond typing a casual question and accepting whatever pops up.And that tiny mistake is costing you time… opportunities… and the chance to get far ahead of everyone else your age.I’ll show you the exact things you’ve been doing wrong, the mind-blowing power you’re missing out on, and the simple shifts that can turn AI into your personal coach, study partner, career guide, confidence booster, and creative engine.You’ll learn the one skill that separates those who win in the AI generation from those who get left behind, plus the detailed prompts and tools that can transform the way you learn, think, create, and grow.If you’ve ever felt like AI “isn’t that helpful”… this episode will completely change your mind, and open a door to a level of help, clarity, and personal power you didn’t know you could access for free.This is the episode that will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about AI. And by the end, you’ll never use it the same way again.For questions/comments/collaboration: +234 810 872 3801Email: aboutdvoice@gmail.comTo drop an anonymous comment, kindly use this link https://www.secretmessage.link/secret/69233fc42a0dd/
