Curiosity isn’t just for children — it’s a powerful force that keeps a man’s mind alive, sharp, and open to growth.

In this eye-opening episode of For My Sons, Papa O explores why curiosity is essential for men who want to lead, learn, and leave a lasting legacy. Using a thought-provoking Yoruba proverb — "Learning never ends in a child’s mind" — Papa O breaks down how a curious mindset fuels innovation, strengthens relationships, and prevents you from becoming stagnant.

Discover why curiosity: ✔️ Sparks creativity, reinvention, and lifelong learning ✔️ Helps you challenge your echo chambers and expand your worldview ✔️ Strengthens your character by encouraging humility and openness

Hear unforgettable stories, from Nigerian "stool-down" punishments to the dangers of chasing novelty without purpose. Learn practical ways to stay curious without falling into the traps of distraction and overload.

Action steps you can take this week: • Write down three topics you’re curious about and explore them. • Ask someone from a different background a meaningful question — really listen to their answer. • Try something new that humbles you and stretches your growth.

💬 Yoruba proverb of the week: "Learning never ends in a child's mind."

Whether you’re a father, a leader, or a man striving to build a powerful legacy, this episode will inspire you to keep asking questions, keep growing, and keep your mind young.
