How To Find Your Purpose in Life with Vee Kativhu

[@drveekativhu]

I loved this!! Thank you for having me!!

[@ChloeCara]

The way you speak with so much passion, vigour and conviction even after being asked very blunt and honest questions by Ali is SO admirable. He was right when he said you were like a modern day Tony Robbins 🙌🏽

[@excusemequeencomingthrough7684]

My Queen was slaying this interview ☺️

[@ruthbwalyamusange]

You're amazing Vee 💛

[@junglemami6941]

I love you sis love your channel and your energy I support you through it all 🤎👏🏾👏🏾

[@susannyika9359]

you are an inspiration to my daughter

“You just have to give yourself a chance in this world man..” - Vee Kativhu 🥺

[@rawhomemade1815]

Vee is not only to able to empower Blck young people with the message "YES YOU CAN" but she is also empowering a 45 yr old woman like me who is still persisting with her dream to achieve education!! The world needs more V's!! xxx

[@marilis12]

not only black people, I'm 36 years old caucasian and I'm still learning from her. She is brilliant!

[@ilhamtalab5005]

Can we take a minute to appreciate the blunt and honest questions Ali asks in his interviews! I wouldn't have kept watching if he was asking the typical 'nice' questions. This is cool!

[@aliabdaal]

Ahh thanks ☺️

[@TemiDansoArt]

Vee is so inspiring! Another great episode

[@bees0la276]

I am 32 minutes in and I have chills, goosebumps and tears in my eyes. As someone that was told 'No' all through my Uni and high school, I understand what she's talking about. I also proved the Naysayers wrong by getting the highest CGPA in my year and getting the Vice chancellor's award. I must say, it's a great feeling. Now when I tell people in the UK about my CGPA they don't get it, they don't understand the opposition I had to face to even get it. I started to look at it the same way they look at it but hearing Vee talk about validation of the Bs in a class of Es just made gave me a boost. I need that book!

[@RarosueAmaraibi]

Vee!!!, I love how you responded to the comment about “maybe blacks are not smart enough.” You we’re so calm and spoke with wisdom. Love you.

[@LaureninGermany]

The two KZbinrs who helped me when I went back to do a Masters after a long break. I had to learn to learn again, and you both helped so much, as well as being adorable (yes, you, too, Ali!) And I started my channel because of Ali after a while, because I realised KZbin is just such a fantastic thing. It definitely helped me pass my first two semesters.

A mother with a “let them fly” attitude is a great thing to have. Edit: Or a father for that matter.

[@patriciag1111]

"Find ways to throw as many parties as you can" ... heck yeah!! I didn't know this was my life motto. Thanks Vee and Ali!! (And the rest of the people who made this happen, including that sad teacher that told her no).

[@yjleonce]

She instantly made me feel better. One of your best interviews 😉🥂

[@thankunext1625]

She is very real and such an inspiration. Dropped everything to listen to this. So glad yall were able to connect 👏Go Vee!

[@misskaykayRSA]

When you grow up with plenty, you don’t realise how much some people have to fight for what they have. I appreciate Ali’s humility and honesty in realising that not everyone grows up wealthy❤. The attitude of gratitude is important 🥺

[@fdoctor79]

This is by far my favorite podcast! Thank you, Ali, for having V on your podcast. Her journey (thus far) is soo empowering and inspiring. Continued success with your and V's endeavors!

[@estherbaffour2993]

wow Vee is so bright, intelligent and loving. She needs a documentary of her own because wow

[@Wndrlnd9]

I fell asleep listening to KZbin and woke up at 7am with this playing. Holy moly. It’s like the universe knew I needed this. TY!

[@TheMarmite09]

Loved this. She’s so level headed for someone at her age and to have achieved so much despite her difficulties is so inspiring.

[@graciakinyanjui6937]

Am.here after Vee got her honorary degree from University of Bradford. Congratulations 🎉gal Dr Vee so proud of you

[@ChristinaAaliyah]

One of my favourite KZbinrs! I resonated so much with her book, I'm so glad you managed to get her on the podcast! ✨

[@skap9159]

I've just sat here and bawled my eyes out for the majority of the episode...it hit home 🙏✨

[@garimasharma4812]

Jade sobbing to her mother's words is so pure😭❤️

[@theswissgardenvlog3189]

Great conversation, loved watching you both. By the way, watching this makes me think about my study/career years here in Switzerland. She describes the situation the way it's often experienced through the eyes of a black student in an environment/institution where black people are not "expected". So much more to say but she says it best and everyone out there looking to really understand, solve diversity problems anywhere in the world should watch this interview. All those who are being held back by cultural barriers in any aspect of society should see this as an example of what is possible today with hard work and determination.

[@paulinal8366]

This is the best and most well-spoken and, at the same time, most natural and honest conversation I have ever had the honor to listen to! Absolutely grateful for both of you Ali and Vee!!!

[@edensaief7918]

Pyramid method is GOLD. There are actually so many gems in this. We can’t always predict our path, but having those daily input goals that contribute is something I’ll take away from the podcast 😎

[@flyy1226]

Vee is amazing. Going to revisit this talk everytime I need to be uplifted. Thank you for sharing you story and magic with us!

[@soumiaaliliche7736]

The best episode so far you can notice how enthusiastic she is ❤️❤️

[@monasautes4665]

Vee is a true inspiration, she really forces me to work harder! I love her.

[@bouchrahoumeur6742]

She is so bubble and cute and I enjoyed every sec of the talk, I want to meet her mom lol, I so like the mindset, I was on the brink of giving up but she reminded me how to be grateful, thanks Ali 🌼

[@greatedobi]

This is literally my best episode in deep dive Could feel all the energy exuded, perfect episode

[@ShakiraQwabe]

This is such a deeply inspirational story for all of us here in Africa. A lot of us who had professional parents share this story. Some of us, we never joined our parents in England but know the pain of not having any parents for our formative years. Yes, the trauma has turned us into activists and academic over achievers. We are incredibly proud of you Vee. It’s actually quiet sad how when some of us make it to post grad as African scholars, we meet a whole bunch of challenges (my story is quiet insane on its own lol. No undergrad, to doing my Masters in Architecture at the best university on the continent). I am grateful to Vee for keeping me company through it all. May she continue to be blessed. From- Shakira Q

[@Abramsimene]

Its not about the vision or reaching the goals, it what happens to the “Visionary”. ❤️

[@milcahonline]

Here to rewatch and it's one of my favourite podcasts episodes ever.

[@rhahavyb]

these report cards do not provide context for what these students actually had to go through to obtain that grade - what an amazing insight, I fet so dumb for not even considering this before, this is so important for people to hear

[@aedennnxx708]

I love everything about this podcast so much. Ali, I want to thank you for starting this podcast and putting so much effort for something that has literally been life changing for me. This interview, with Ali’s straightforward raw questions and Vee’s authenticity, drive and optimism is too too good

[@michaelglassockcoaching]

Another banger Ali, grateful to have found your channel 👍🏾 Bought a kindle two months ago and I'm now on my 9th book today!

[@zuzilezungu5899]

I am of Vee Mom's generation, I thought black struggles would end with us, but it looks like there will be no end of this!

[@dracocaelestis6370]

what a extraordinary, lovely young lady. not only is she inspiring young black women, but people like myself too. thank you for this great interview.

[@DaliaAboSheasha]

This episode was so fantastic and thought provoking. Thank you so much for sharing your whole self with us Vee Kativhu and thank you Ali Abdaal for conducting such a thoughtful interview!

[@DrPatrickKingsep]

Hi Ali and Vee, such useful content for so many people. I find the clients I see often talk of a 'lack of purpose in life. What a wonderful purpose Vee has! Its very inspiring. Thank you

[@mangoesyum]

she has such a beautiful spirit

[@dailyredapple]

Saw the clip of this on Instagram while I was mindlessly scrolling. Came to watch the video and started cleaning my room. Most entertaining and productive 2 hours I had. She’s so full of sunshine and positivity it really radiates through the screen and into my mood. Thank you so much for this!

[@megangardner_science_and_art]

This is one of the best chats I’ve listened to on KZbin 👍👏🏽💜 Inspirational and just a lot of wisdom throughout. Great video. Thanks.

[@Vanessa_TK]

Wow. Love this interview!!! Vee is such an inspiration and I just love her. Such a wise young lady ❤

[@HeyRadhia]

Thanks for this amazing video. Love Vee- her outlook on life is so refreshing and inspiring. I honestly took so much from this that I'll be using in my own life ❤️

[@TheMscandy123]

I've been following vee for awhile now, i never really see this side of her, at least not this much. Thank you for showing us more of her as a person!

[@shivaaniselvan1305]

This doesnt even feel like 2 hours..waww..fruitful gain!!🤯🔥🔥im constantly blown away🌌🌠

[@prentonc]

Absolutely loved this. As a South African, it’s amazing how much greatness isn’t materialised because of opportunity. Well done Vee! @Ali, would you consider highlighting people from backgrounds that we would never come across? Give back almost to the lesser known talents?

[@sarasalgado8574]

Love her! She gives Miranda Bailey vibes!!

[@LucyMungaBrands]

Lovely episode. I listened throughout to the end. Couldn't stop it. Vee is such an inspiring girl and an encouragement to the young and bright. I'm a mom and I loved it. A few takeaways are that I need to borrow a leaf from her mom. My daughters will love listening to this as well. Thanks for sharing.

[@sacharymateo1710]

i love this one! you are amazing vee! i bought the book, will start reading it today, thank you for doing so much about girls education, you inspire me to do the same!!

[@successareeveso]

Vee!! This is beautiful, Congratulations to you and Ali thanks for sharing her story.

[@vnctkenny]

omgggg I love the airlines mask analogy that is brilliant, I'm glad this came on my recommendation great video as always!!

[@gc6497]

I can't wait to listen to this, looks very very inserting ! edit: I didn't know I could cry for a Barbie ! love you guys. Great episode

[@vnctkenny]

1:12:57 I'm actually going through this right now, Vee thank you so much for saying that, my friends, and cousin always think I'm wasting my time and life just because I have other goals other than medicine cause if I drop my "supposed goals" I might wasting my youth, just because I wanted to do something else other than medicine, It's not that I hate my degree but I gotta be honest if I have to choose I would love to have a job where I can stay away from caffeine, I can sleep at least 7-9 hours a day, I can have a weekend like it should be where I'm not getting constant anxious about calls coming, emails, or sudden schedule shift, which medicine unfortunately is that kind of place, sure it's a great place that you help other people but when you are at your lowest who's gonna help you even you have no idea is this heavy/worth enough to get help as it should or am I not trying enough to solve my own problem. It's toxic sometimes but that's life and I wanted to do more than just being a doctor, the stress sometimes is unbearable

[@MonikaDaddarwal]

40:15 , you have still impacted the lives of so many, Ali. and in such big ways.

[@ThirtySomethingDiaries]

I had to watch this interview. I've always wanted to study at Oxford...not history though, Law. I studied law at the University of the West Indies in JAMAICA instead and for the first time...visited Keble College at Oxford for an Advocacy Training course in August 2022. It was excellent! I hope to do my masters there one day. Cheers Vee...excellent interview...I shall go over to your channel and subscribe.

[@moses2716]

I always consider youtubers are influencers, I was learning a lot from Ali Abdaal and Now I found Vee Kativhu, I really liked this video especially part about finding purpose

[@mvuselelo8917]

Inspiring and easily spent 2 hours 10 minutes and it gave me a good mood to do my work.

[@marufhasan5767]

Vee is very soft minded person, i love her attitude. ❤

Great interview! Vee's energy and positivity is so infectious!

[@razabadass]

Thank you Ali, Vee and behind the scene related people! Raza :)

[@martinso.a.777]

How come I just joined only now. I thought I've followed this dude intoto))). Feeling late but glad I came

[@angelagardener1234]

I enjoyed this and love the story as and the Patricia Bright video which has really interesting conversations but this video is really long. I expected to watch the video like Patricia's on the Break Social which was a good length but Ididn't want to switch off and had me wanting to watch more videos. These video are for people who don't have anything to do or going no where. But for busy people like myself it's far too long and I lose interest after a hour. However, Vee has accomplished so much and I absolutely hear her on many different levels and it's something that I may consider from my Youth Education Project which she may be of some help. I love goals and goals to give me direction and a target to hit where a positive outcome arrives at what I wanted 😊

[@LifeShortStories2022]

Love this!!! The deep talk, knowledge, and 2 hours and plus KZbin video.

[@Kirollus]

Vee is amazing. What she said at 18:00 is too real and so important

Sometimes i think people forget the sacrifices black minorities have made to enable so many other ethnic minorities to ride on the coat tails of equality. Thank you Vee for breaking barriers

Favourite episode yet! Can’t wait to get my hands on the book 🙌

[@karenvickery6070]

Talking about keeping young girls in school made me sad. When the 2004 tsunami hit they said a lot more men survived and they were worried about young girls being married off to these men because they had lost their wives, I decided to sponsor a young girl in Thailand to hopefully prevent that. After about 5 years of sponsoring her I got a phone call from world vision who I sponsored her through and they were all excited and said they had exciting news for me, and then they said she recently got married. I just started screaming and crying NO NO NO and they were confused on the other end of the phone and asked why I was so upset and I said because she’s a child! She only just turned 13 years old that month and they ended up telling me she got married a few months before, so she was married at 12! I had all these people from world vision ring be back and talk about how distressed I was for her and broken hearted and how sponsorship didn’t help these girls at all, all they could say was they couldn’t interfere with the culture aspects of those in other countries. The lesson I learnt was some places will never be good for young girls and it’s heart breaking, so we can only do our best to make sure it doesn’t happen closer to home.
