Not the sexiest photo of me you'll ever see, but one for the career books! What's something on your career bucket list? One thing of mine was to do something with CNN. And...done! 😊🙌🏾✅ ________________________________________________________ I recently produced some features for @CNNAfrica. Two of them: #CNNMarketplaceAfrica and The Profit Point, will air tomorrow, Friday October 12th at 15:15 GMT. Criss-crossing Lagos, chasing down interviews + footage was NOT easy (I went to Apapa twice...nuff said àbí? 😩), working with @luckyyusuf and @peter.rudden on stories featuring #TheLaCaseraCompany, #Kobo360 & @maxdotng, among others ________________________________________________________ I learned a lot, and I'm excited to watch, and for you to see them. Please tune in if you can! Repeats on Saturday 15:15, Sunday 6:15 & Monday 16:45 (GMT) So, what's on your career bucket list? And how do we feel about my factory-chic look 😂? #LamideWorks #LamideonTV #PersonalGoal https://www.instagram.com/p/BozhjWTg7NN/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1f3wy7hrk368k

What DON'T/WON'T you talk about? And why? ________________________________________________________ Some of my favorite interviews have been with people whose lives and experiences/journeys I found interesting and wanted to share with others. But there have been questions I didn't want to ask, and topics that were hard to broach. About loss, about intensely private things, or questions *I personally* wouldn't want to answer, but had to ask because it's my job. Doesn't make it easier, though! If you've ever seen Iyanla Vanzant on "Fix my Life" - her own is 😳. I don't know how she does it, I could never! 😂 ________________________________________________________ So, in the spirit of Monday musings aka gbeborun Monday, what questions won't you answer and why? ________________________________________________________ Picture taken on set for #CMTrueStories 📸: @kooldolphinpictures 👗: @jeweljemila, styled by @motunrayo_john #StyleMOJ 💄: @tmtbylayinka #LamideonTV #LamideAkintobi https://www.instagram.com/p/Boq8_VXghZ8/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=l980g4moykvn
