“Losing my mom changed my mindset about life”- Osas Ighodaro reveals.
Nollywood Actress, Osas Ighodaro has stated how losing her mother made her more easygoing and less concerned about other people’s impressions of her.
In an interview, the actress discussed a shift in her life philosophy that made her more free-spirited.
“I know a transition happened for me because I used to be in my head a lot and I used to worry about what people thought about me a lot. But when I went through the experience of losing my mum in 2020, I realised how much she gave to so many people and she didn’t take care of herself.”
She emphasised that losing her mother taught her to value her self-expression and self-love over worrying about other people’s perceptions. Ighodaro claimed that changing her mentality allowed her to enjoy life and everything it had to offer, and she has been happier since.
“I said ‘Wait a minute? I’m not going to end up like that. I’m going to live my life and I’m going to the the best that I can be and I want to represent her legacy to the best of my abilities. It’s been free since then, I’ve been living life and being happy and enjoying every moment; whether it’s good or bad. You either learn from it or enjoy it and that’s how I live my life.” The actress explained.
“A lot of people come up to me and say ‘I love your dancing,’ and that’s part of the freedom for me. I used to be so self-conscious before but who cares at this point, I am a thespian but I’m also someone who loves life and loves to travel and enjoy herself and dance,” she concluded.
