The Quirk Mini-series is a new program where we highlight the unusual abilities we possess. These unusual abilities might stem from a unique physical or mental situation that we live through. We believe that these conditions privy us to some experiences, perspectives, and opportunities that others do not have access to. We want to put these out there. Through 'The Quirk', we are reimagining conditions that are out of our control.
In this second episode, we speak with three scholars, Elsie Ogianyo, Kenechi Emmanuel, and Oludayo Oluwatosin, and we talk about the virtue of Resilience and Grit. As usual, this episode also includes a 10-second 'behind-the-scenes' at the end.
