The Thriving Immigrant – Details, episodes & analysis

Adebanke Falade, also known as Banksofcalgary, struggled with self-esteem issues as a child. Growing up, constant comparisons prevented her from recognizing her own strengths. Through healing, she was able to overcome this and went on to write and publish her book Unashamed. Since relocating to Canada, she has built a strong online community for new immigrants, helping them connect with valuable opportunities.

In this episode, Banke and I discuss:

• Growing up with constant comparisons
• How she stopped doubting herself
• Why she wrote Unashamed
• Why she created her online community to support immigrants
• And much more.
