How to do Everything? (Tips and Thoughts on Being Highly Productive)
It all started with the question, “How do you do everything, Miss Rica?” We run, workout, overland, join races, while completing tasks at home and for our careers, so they must be thinking we’re some kind if unicorns to achieve all these but you’d probably be surprised to know that we aren’t special at all. But what we do have is a philosophy in life that enables us to di teh things we want to do and have the kind of life we actually want to have. The best part about it is you can do these steps, too. It’s not even anything magical or hard to achieve — it only requires intentionality, coupled with discipline. So go ahead and dig into this brand new episode from The Bonis! We hope you come away empowered after listening to this! If you want to continue the conversation, make sure you’re part of our Telegram Channel and Chat Group. Join us here.

So, is DIVORCE right or wrong?
Long time no episode! Life happens — as you will hear us explain in the beginning of this podcast episode BUT we couldn’t let this topic pass. Especially since so many people are claiming this must or must not be followed by whatever qualifier — because I am a family man, Christian, etc. so we might as well talk about it and talk about the claims, too, and what we feel about them saying those things about why divorce must be enforced as a law of the land.
Wanna hear your take, too. So if you have time do join our telegram community and let’s chat there!

10/10 (The Ten Tensions of Parenting)
We turned ten years old as parents this year and we decided to recount things we’ve learned from being parents so far. They turned out to be ten pairs:
- Father and Mother
- Discipline and Grace
- Time and Seasons
- Dependence and Independence
- Physical and Spiritual
- Joy and Sacrifice
- Hard or Easy
- Future and Past
- Nuclear and Extended
- Qualified and Unqualified
- Nature and Nurture
This might be good for you all who are new parents, and all of you who are children. Might just make you understand the immense responsibility that comes with being a mom or dad amd how it is so easy to get it all wrong. Which in the end is the driving force behind why we were left without a choice but to ask help from God.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
Ps 139:14
In this podcast we talk about a bunch of topics that interest us. We’ll be uploading a new podcast every week where we talk about what we’re currently into, a topic of the day, and we answer some questions. Anything goes!
