Tings and Things

Jonathan Mbaya & Simba Tsumba

Tings and Things is hosted by Jonathan Mbaya and Simba Tsumba, two lifelong friends. Our Podcast transcends borders and strips away all the filters from the perfectly edited and curated lives we have become accustomed to online. As a duo, we manage to open up a platform to have real conversations that touch upon what it means to live and learn, alongside occasional guest appearances from some of the most dynamic people across industries and our Tings & Things family. We found that through our travel and adventures, our struggles as young adults were not unique to us. Tings and Things was designed to share those experiences since those were not being discussed by traditional media outlets, and alongside our back and forth banter and undeniable chemistry, we have found the perfect formula to exhibit the everyday stories of life in an everyday conversational way.

Protecting yourself from activity that drains your energy and makes you feel tired can be key to improving your productivity, happiness, and success. However, more than anything else, our habits are what mostly zap our energy, and make us less productive, and unhappy.

Ah yes, this is definitely a call to action and not one of those toxic ones you find on the dark corners of Youtube. So often we flirt around with the idea of things, and this leads to casual interaction without any real or defined purpose. For the past 18 months or so, a lot of you have exposed yourselves to new things and there has certainly been a spark, why not empty the clip and see what’s on the other end?

The truth is, as I’m sure you know, the older we get, the more our bodies change. But sometimes we forget that this also means we need to adjust our self-care habits. We’ve spoken about it before *insert episode* but life is a linear journey and we have been learning more about ourselves and we decided to come back to this.

Toxicity is a real thing and it's something we all do, whether consciously or unconsciously. Quite often, it’s our little, harmful routines that break our success, not the lack of good ones. We wanted to unpack some things that we used to do and some that we are still working on and hopefully it will help you make some positive changes in your life.
