Episode #150 with Deborah McLeod

Hosted by Akin, The Swinging Palm Trees Podcast is built around a simple, profound question: what’s your favourite quote? This isn’t about famous lines in isolation, but about the people and stories that give them weight. In each episode, Akin sits down with remarkable individuals, delving into their identities and the unique lived experiences that have shaped them. The heart of every conversation is the guest sharing that personal mantra or saying which continually inspires them, acting as a compass through life’s journey. These dialogues become more than interviews; they are intimate explorations of culture, personal growth, and the shared human condition. You’ll hear stories that are at once educational and deeply human, touching on society, self-improvement, and the quiet journals of our lives. The aim is for every discussion to leave you feeling genuinely enriched, offering new perspectives on wellbeing and resilience. It’s a space for thoughtful reflection, curated with care by host Akin and executive producer Ashanti Omkar. So, find a moment of quiet, press play, and perhaps you’ll discover a new phrase to carry with you. Keep Rising & Thriving, Aṣẹ!
