Ep.69 Ola Ogunnaike: At Sawmill 40% of the Time

We continue our new grad series with Ola Ogunaike, an IIT grad now working as an engineer in Chicago. Despite having his own apartment, Ola reflects on why he spends nearly half his week on a couch at Sawmill (the post-grad housing) and how he found a "family of brothers" he never had growing up. He opens up about the challenge of letting go of his autonomy to join a high-commitment church staff and the humbling realization that he is loved for who he is—not just for his competence or what he can contribute.
