Late night on Max FM is the night time radio program that is a life saver, life compass, school of discovery and comfort zone for listeners of all ages. From teenagers to young adults to elders, no one is immune to life’s surprises when it comes to love (business and dating relationships) and life (self discovery and mentorship).
Toke Makinwa, the well-known Nigerian media personality, recently shared insights into her personal life. She revealed that she spent her entire 20s focused on one relationship.
In a candid conversation on the ‘Cocktails and Takeaways’ podcast, Makinwa reflected on her past. She admitted that those formative years didn’t bring her happiness.
Makinwa shared that, during her twenties, she focused intensely on a relationship with one man. As a result, she felt she missed the chance to fully explore her own identity.
She acknowledges that the experience contributed to her growth. As a result, she has become the person she is today.
Makinwa expressed dissatisfaction with how she spent that period of her life. She acknowledges that the experience contributed to her growth, and she has become the person she is today.
She expressed gratitude for how far she has come and how her journey has contributed to her growth. ‘If I could turn back the hand of time, I’m grateful that I’m where I am today because my experience has shaped me,’ she said.
Looking back, Makinwa offered advice to younger generations, particularly those in their twenties, emphasizing the importance of self-discovery before making major life decisions. She advises young people, ‘Don’t get married in your early or mid-twenties.’ ‘First, figure yourself out.’ Know yourself first,’ she advised.
Makinwa’s reflections resonate with many, especially those who have struggled with navigating relationships and personal growth during their youth. Her openness about her journey serves as a reminder of the importance of self-awareness and taking time for personal development before committing to significant life decisions.
