Figure out your purpose and passion and align with them. Don’t be afraid of tough questions like, “what makes me happy?” And… Never apologise for following your dreams https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/1654116374171-UW4T265BT5YKH5MYYC5F/unsplash-image-Jxi526YIQgA.jpg Home - Which doors will you walk through? ‘What was it like in the MasterChef UK kitchen?’ This is a question I get asked all the time. And my answer is …. some dreams come true because we dared to dream; others come true because we dared to embrace an unexpected opportunity. The MasterChef opportunity was unexpected but it was the most exhilarating experience of my life and I am glad for the day that I walked through the door into the MasterChef kitchen. 2022 has been a year like no other because of MasterChef UK. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/eef3e552-8f74-4df0-b0cf-2d61bf31a9cd/white+dress-1-2.jpg Home - When I was ten... My dad bought me a Polka Dot Dress and three decades later, it became the title of my first book. “Flying High In A Polka Dot Dress” started out as a dream, nurtured by my parents and today it has become my reality. Polka Dots were part of my journey in the MasterChef UK 2022 kitchen. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/2c138394-64a2-476f-8651-8595c749156f/85269FAA-1BA7-432C-86B8-10802278AD10.JPG Home - Improve yourself at every opportunity Two books that my father bought for my brother and me when we were both under the age of ten were: ‘A Guide To Confident Living’ and ‘The Power of Positive Thinking’ by Norman Vincent Peale. I remember flipping through the pages and wondering why there were no pictures in the books. Something about the titles struck me and I concluded that for my father to buy the books, ‘confident living’ and ‘positive thinking’ must be very important. I have tried to live my life demonstrating both values. To be your best self, you must be willing to keep learning, unlearning, relearning and growing. That is why I am passionate about continuously improving myself and helping you to do so. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/78a0cead-366b-4524-af38-1737c79c3607/PurposefulMe+Logo+2.JPG Home Purposeful Me https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/1653604391178-E6YWC5RPSD6OL77K1JXH/Yummy%2BBy%2BDesign%2BLogo%2B2.jpg Home Yummy By Design https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/3a2dab24-5ec4-48a9-aad3-791e2c3e7f1d/Book+cover+1.jpg Home Flying High In A Polka Dot Dress https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/5c89fb75-e820-49ac-85bc-a299b7305788/The+Purposeful+Life+Project.jpg Home The Purposeful Life Project https://www.olayemiadelekan.com/books-1 daily 0.75 2022-06-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/1655030567599-X4YT30SKSS4MV63Q9F4A/IMG_2142.jpg My Books https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/1655031113586-H9HMKBH0TH9TVYQXGZVI/The%2BPurposeful%2BLife%2BProject%2B-%2BBook%2BCover.jpg My Books https://www.olayemiadelekan.com/get-started daily 0.75 2022-08-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/1655193568710-GMO7WXU7UOVIKBLBY6CR/Yummy%2BBy%2BDesign%2BLogo%2B2.jpg Get Started https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/1655791558343-Q5386BIVCMVDU8M7FKA0/PurposefulMe%2BLogo%2B2.jpg Get Started https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/1655791606896-F44S0FZIPKOYPDZZXX3E/PurposefulMe+Logo+2.JPG Get Started https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/1655791891964-0NOFUQXLI3D1AF196QVR/F309FD21-65F9-447D-9FCC-E878C6257162.jpg Get Started https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6286b396f76f666c3d324710/66fbbc5d-1243-43ef-991e-7c45c33c4743/MC+kitchen.jpg Get Started https://www.olayemiadelekan.com/get-started-1 daily 0.75 2025-05-13 https://www.olayemiadelekan.com/get-started-1/p/relationship-with-youothers-6gk34 monthly 0.5 2024-04-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ced8e1d5fd4c700018dd761/1560190004400-XTA0DF0S9WOZJUG994C8/Stocksy_txp824ffa5crXt000_Original_845035.jpg Get Started -
