In this limited-edition podcast, I delve into heavy topics that have often been sidelined in the African society, particularly Ghana where I live. In these 7 episodes, I have conversations with people living with first-hand experiences of issues ranging from bi-polar disorders to Africans indulging in sham marriages abroad in hopes of finding a better life. My goal for this project is for people to find hope in their dark corners, to instigate paradigm shifts and to share the heroic stories of a few people in their own words.
