Misunderstood : Teaser

Philip Ogola, a digital humanitarian, talks about being misunderstood in life. He emphasizes the importance of being present for your child, not just with material gifts, but with emotional support and love. He encourages men to have conversations about vulnerability, breaking the stereotype that speaking about emotions is weak or unmanly. He believes that vulnerability is a strength and wants to use music as a tool for inspiration and validation. So my name is Philip Ogola and I just want to speak as a digital humanitarian. You know, I've lived a life of being misunderstood all my life. And as a parent out there, the best gift you can give to your child is just being present. And not just being present with presents, you need to be present with your presence. You know, have your child, affirm your child, validate your child, tell your child you love them. And if you're a dad out there, if you're a man out there, if you're a young lad out there, let's have this conversation. We've let women have this conversation for a very long time without us talking because when we speak we are considered weak, when we talk we are considered, you know, like not manly, you know. So I talk about vulnerability and to me vulnerability is a strength. And I want to use music. I want to use music to inspire me. I want to use music to validate me. So let's test this out.
