About this listen
“Doctors were on strike—my father died.”At 14, that tragedy pushed Dr. Ife to medicine. Decades later, he became a consultant psychiatrist, earned a PhD at King’s, and now serves as CEO of NHS Oxleas—after battling discrimination, self-doubt, and doors slammed with, “We won’t employ people like you.”⏱️ CHAPTERS00:00 – The Night My Father Died During a Doctors’ Strike05:00 – Boarding School at 9: Discipline, Labour & Lost Childhood10:00 – A Strict Father, Family Name & Pressure to Succeed15:00 – Depression at 14 & My Mother’s Sacrifice to Survive20:00 – Why His Death Pushed Me Into Medicine25:00 – Discrimination in the UK: “We Won’t Employ People Like You”30:00 – The Case That Changed My Career: Not Schizophrenia35:00 – Rising to NHS CEO: Faith, Resilience & No Gossip Leadership40:00 – Faith vs. Laziness: Why Christians Must Do More Than Pray45:00 – Mad or Bad?
