Thursday, April 2, 2026 • Duration 01:04:25

In this episode of Asset Avenue, we sit down with top-tier financial adviser and media personality Emmanuel Asuquo to dismantle the myths around wealth and reveal the psychological traps that keep people broke.

From his early days as the youngest financial adviser at Barclays to becoming a leading voice in UK financial education, Emmanuel shares the "brutal truths" about money that most people are too afraid to discuss. We dive deep into the concept of "poverty scars" the financial trauma from our past that dictates how we spend today and why earning a high salary doesn’t automatically make you wealthy.

20 Years in Finance Taught Me This: Your Degree Won’t Make You Wealthy

Season 1 · Episode 5

Thursday, March 26, 2026 • Duration 40:59

"If you don't have your health, you have nothing."

In this powerful and deeply personal episode of Asset Avenue, I am joined by my older brother, Dapo Olatunji. For the first time, Dapo opens up about a journey many don't see—the reality of living and working at a high level while managing Sickle Cell.

Dapo spent over 25 years in the finance and accounting sector, navigating the "Old Boys Club" and climbing the corporate ladder. But behind the professional success was a silent battle with his health that redefined everything he thought he knew about wealth. We discuss how his greatest assets aren't the figures in his bank account, but his "health and his tongue"—the power of his well-being and the power of his word.

From his childhood in Brixton as the "man of the house" to the realisation that the traditional accounting path has a "hidden ceiling," Dapo shares the raw truth about the "Pyramid Problem" in the corporate world. This episode is a must-watch for anyone who feels the pressure to provide while neglecting themselves, and for those looking for the courage to pivot toward a life of true legacy and protection.

In this episode, we cover:

The Sickle Cell Journey: Managing a chronic condition while building a high-level career.
The Brixton Blueprint: How being the eldest sibling taught Dapo the weight of responsibility.
The Corporate Trap: Why Dapo wouldn't study core accountancy again and the "ceiling" most people hit.
The "Old Boys Club": How the finance industry has (and hasn't) changed over 25 years.
Building a Legacy: Why wealth is ultimately about the life you protect and the family you provide for.

Thursday, March 19, 2026 • Duration 59:04

In this powerful episode of Asset Avenue, Hayley Mulenda (Author of Speak Up) joins Bola Sol to break down the raw, unfiltered truth about building a seven-figure speaking career from the ground up. If you feel like you’re "doing too much" or waiting for a seat at a table that doesn't exist yet, this conversation is your wake-up call.

Hayley reveals the "secret language" of high-performers, why she deliberately ignored the rules of corporate "etiquette" to build her own empire, and the controversial mindset shift that took her from £50 talks to global arenas.

In this episode, we discuss:

The Visibility Trap: Why being "too broke to not be visible" is a psychological barrier you must break.
Gatekeepers & Forgiveness: The reality of navigating elite spaces as a Black woman in the UK.
Building Your Own Table: How Hayley used unconventional tactics to get her voice heard when no one was booking her.
The Power of Proximity: Why your network isn't just about who you know, but who you serve.
Wealth & Wisdom: The non-negotiable habits of a seven-figure entrepreneur.

Hayley Mulenda is an international speaker, change agent, and the author of Speak Up. She has reached tens of thousands globally, teaching them how to turn their pain into a purpose-driven, high-earning career.

Listen, if you are struggling to save £5, angel investing on "vibes" is not going to save you. But if you are ready to stop letting the taxman and inflation eat your hard-earned cash, this episode is exactly where you need to be.

Today, we are joined by Debodun Osekita, investing coach and founder of Stock Pickers Academy. Debs helps everyday people understand investing far beyond the hype, fear, and social media tips.

More importantly, we unpack the heavy intersection of money, behaviour, and culture. Why do we seek validation through our spending? Why is contentment the ultimate wealth-building tool? And why is leaving your money sitting in a standard bank account the most dangerous financial decision you can make?

Season 1 · Episode 1

Thursday, February 26, 2026 • Duration 01:03:52

Welcome to the Asset Avenue podcast!

Asset Avenue sits at the intersection of money, identity, power and everyday life in the hopes it can help a global audience who were never taught how the system really works.

00:12 - Mr Money Jar's nickname originated when he hosted monthly financial meetups in Brixton, with attendees affectionately calling him by what would become his famous moniker. The organic naming reflected his natural ability to simplify money matters for everyday people.

00:32 - Stop consuming, start creating: why your passions and talents are assets waiting to be monetised — and how this unlocks wealth beyond the 9-5.

01:09 - If you don't own it, you don't control it. Why building assets is the only route to true financial autonomy and the "product in someone else's value chain" analogy that will change how you see your career.

08:50 - Reclaiming "Rotimi": the power of owning your identity and refusing to shrink yourself for palatability in business and in life.

12:36 - Beats on Fruity Loops, CDs, MySpace backgrounds and flyers, how Rotimi's teenage hustle during the UK Grime era revealed a creator mindset before he even knew what that meant.

15:55 - High-achieving and still not enough? How therapy in his 30s taught Rotimi to separate his self-worth from his success metrics and why this hits different in our culture.

24:10 - Why money alone won't save you: what watching wealthy people up close taught Rotimi about fulfilment, character, and the problems your brain invents when the bills are paid.

28:20 - The eviction notice he got on his lunch break that changed everything. How losing his home became the catalyst for building real, lasting wealth.

37:16 - From anonymous "Money Jar" to visible Black British financial educator, why Rotimi stopped hiding and what that representation means for the next generation.

49:37 - Raising children to be owners, not employees: why Rotimi is teaching his kids to think globally and create value in a world where traditional career paths are becoming obsolete.
