I celebrate my birthday EVERY year. Every year is significant and important to me because life is a gift, time is a gift and the Giver is SO Good!
Here’s my ’23 reflections, lessons, nuggets of wisdom’ post and a small thank you at the end to you!

1. I love my season!
2. I am free to be everything God has called me to be.
3. There is a deeper call to intimacy. I am first a daughter of God before a servant.
4. Knowledge is great but knowledge ‘lived out’ is explosive!
5. I care less about what people think of me…in fact, it’s none of my business 😝
6. A giver never lacks!
7. God is working on my patience 😌
8. I live a life of favour.
9. My Praise is my weapon
10. My hope has never been cut off. Proverbs 23:18
11. An abundant life will continue to be my testimony in Christ.
12. Pray about anything and everything!
13. People will use you, disappoint you and shade you…still do you 👑
14. Family ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
15. Number 14. && Friends – Enjoy them, appreciate them, love on them.
16. Serve serve serve in any capacity!
17. Have a vision for your life!
18. Trust God even when it doesn’t make sense. Trust Him more when He says ‘no’!
19. Greatness can never come out of laziness. Work hard.
20. Compete with yourself. Be the best version of you! Outdo yourself.
21. They say that 21 is a milestone…
22. And at twenty-two everything na double double…
23. Two decades + 3 years and in the last 3 years my life have been totally built on these three things: Abba Father, Purpose and Love 😌❤️
His Mercy is greater than my mistakes. His word remains my truth. His sacrifice is the reason I live. His faithfulness is my assurance. His Grace is my strength. His love is my identity.
Happy Birthday to me!

Kanayo is a Multi-award winning, Author and Senior leader in education whose experience ranges from being a Deputy Head of Sixth Form, Head of Psychology and Lead Practitioner. Kanayo believes that these 3 elements are the driving force of her ministry and career. D.I.G; Drive, Integrity and Grace.
Having a psychology degree provides me with a broad scope to experience many industries and fields of work. Although, my main aim is to continuously learn and also to share my knowledge and experience with others, within and beyond the constraints of the psychology community. Hence my pursuit to teach!
Hopefully, the readers of this blog will find that it is infested with a scope of psychological knowledge, with the intention of conveying psychology in such a way that it is interesting and understandable to those who aren’t studying it as a discipline. In addition, you will find that I heavily cover various topics aside of psychology such as, Christianity because I am a Christian. I draw both passions together, Psychology and Christianity, observing how they complement and sometimes clash! This blog is where ‘Psychology meets Scripture’.
As well as teaching Psychology, I know God has called me to do something far greater in this world. My passion is for His Word and to encourage others to read the Bible, fall in love with it, but most importantly…fall in love with The Author! My role of teaching is not limited to psychology. I strongly believe God is stirring up the ‘teacher’ office of the Five fold ministry in me.
I’m a doctor by virtue, healing and performing heart surgery with words of encouragement.
I am extremely driven and passionate about getting everyone; both Christians and non-Christians to read, understand and live out the word of God. To achieve this, I’ve created online Bible Challenges, whereby people around the world via social media, read a book in the Bible, one chapter a day and share what they have drawn out from the text. I have numerous Bible challenges, all accessible from my blog (www.doctorkanayo.com) and the YouVersion Bible App where over 250,000 people have completed my devotionals around the world. One Bible Challenge at a time, I aim to change the skewed perceptions of the Bible being irrelevant and to show the true reality that the bible is ‘juicy’, tremendously relevant, fun and easy to read. My one prayer is that my teachings and writings from His word, will touch at least ONE person. That would be a serious mission accomplished to the glory of God!
If you have anything you would like me to blog about, do let me know by either commenting, or contacting me via my contact form.
Thank you for visiting my blog. With love, Kanayo x
