About

Hi, I’m Eniola and I built a career by accident. Now I help early-career professionals do it on purpose. I studied Law in Nigeria. Dabbled into tax, then content writing. Now I work in policy and advocacy on Parliament Hill. In between, there was a lot of uncertainty. I moved to Canada and started over. I spent months not knowing what I was doing. Honestly, it took me years to figure out what I wanted to do. But looking back, I realize I was setting myself up for success the whole time. The volunteer work. The two research jobs as an international student. Speaking up in class when my whole body trembled. Building New Roots from scratch. None of it was particularly planned, but it all worked out. Now I help you navigate your career with more certainty than I had starting out. I share tips on career strategy, workplace insights, and the unwritten rules of career growth. I’m not handing you a blueprint. Think of me as a friend who helps you understand how careers actually work so you can build one you really like. If you're early in your career and figuring it out, hit follow for weekly career insights.
