Handling Ignorance with Strength and Wisdom | For My Sons - Episode 15

Yoruba Proverb: "Ọgbọ́n bí igi òròmọdì, kò sẹni tó lè yí ká."

Translation: "Wisdom is like the bough of a tree; no one person can fully embrace it."

Ignorance is everywhere – in workplaces, schools, online spaces, and sometimes even within our own families. But real strength isn’t about shouting the loudest. It’s about knowing when to respond, when to teach, and when to walk away in peace.

In Episode 15 of For My Sons, Papa O explores:

✅ The power of responding over reacting

✅ How great men like Nelson Mandela and Frederick Douglass used wisdom to confront ignorance

✅ Why protecting your peace is essential for legacy-building

✅ Practical steps to raise sons who model self-control and quiet strength

🎧 Listen now to learn how to master calm power, guard your energy, and live as an example of strength for your sons.
