<![CDATA[At the Edge with Anwulika Okonjo]]>At the Edge is a horizon-scanning conversation series with visionary thinkers building at the edge of what's possible across disciplines and sectors. Each episode explores not just what we're creating, but who we need to become to shape the futures we're reaching for.

This isn't polished expertise or tidy conclusions. These are live, intimate conversations where Anwulika and her guests think together in real time— making their meaning-making visible, staying with questions that don't resolve neatly, and examining the intersection of inner development, leadership, identity, culture, and systemic change.

Guests share their personal growth arcs, the unfinished questions they're sitting with, and the big-stakes decisions they're navigating. You'll hear them pause, shift their thinking, and hold complexity without collapsing it into easy answers.

Most of us make decisions every day - about our careers, how we spend our time, what we pursue -without realising we're operating from economic frameworks we inherited rather than chose. Frameworks about what's valuable. What counts as success. What's legitimate. Who gets to decide.

These frameworks aren't neutral. They shape everything from whether you take that job to how nations justify their actions on the world stage. And when you can't see them, you can't choose consciously.

In this conversation, they explore:

  • How to recognise when you're making decisions based on inherited scripts versus conscious choice
  • Why the frameworks shaping your personal decisions about work and value are the same ones operating at systemic scales
  • The capacity required to see frameworks clearly enough to choose between them deliberately
  • What indigenous and African epistemologies teach us about value, legitimacy, and human potential
  • The relationship between individual self-authorship and collective self-determination

This is an edit of a 2-hour Live conversation between Anwulika and Dr. Udochi-Amolo, originally recorded with the members of Ijeruka on March 13, 2026.
