    "From Consumer to Creator Mindset" - With Anthony Dzamefe, CEO of Caveman Watches

    This week on the podcast, i am speaking to Anthony Dzamefe, CEO of Caveman Watches - Ghana's first watchmaking brand. Anthony started as a human signage at the airport but he says he was hungry for more. We spoke about how his mind works and what sparked the idea to build and sell his own brand of watches instead of selling other brands. Anthony highlights the lessons he's taken from his environment and how they have shaped his approach to life and business. On mentorship he says, more than choosing a mentor, you have to be chosen by the mentor too. He offers practical advice on how to deal with mentors based on his experience. Anthony also challenged me to think differently about this podcast on something we discussed called the "survivorship bias".  If you are a budding entrepreneur, this is an episode not to miss!

    "Reflecting on Meaningful Friendships and Purpose" - With Mordecai Storm Olupot, Founding Partner, Stormgold Consulting

    This week's episode is a bit unusual. I am speaking to one of my closest friends about a recurring theme in our conversations - friendships and purpose. There is the saying that you don't get to choose your family, but you get to choose your friends. I believe so strongly that the friends we make and how we individually understand purpose and pursue it, define so much of the outcome of our lives. In a nutshell, this episode feels like eavesdropping on a conversation between two really good friends.
