Today's episode was birthed from a conversation with the wife and it got me thinking that this is truly almost a utopia/dystopia happening right before our very eyes. The concern is that most of us are oblivious to it. Take a listen to this episode and be sure to share this with your community!!! We all need to be nothing short of, aware of the thin line Social Media treads between Influence and Indoctrination. #pop #podcast #social #media #socialmedia #culture #community #utopia #dystopia #awareness #anotherone

On today's episode and in our current economy, I don't have to inform you of the seemingly increasing inflation rate. Trust me, whether we like it or not, it is advantageous to some...So my advice to us as a community is to make a conscious effort to increase our value. Remember and know this, Yesterday's price is not Today's price, Yesterday's date is not Today's date and Yesterday's value is not Today's value. With this piece of information let's encourage each other as a community to do better than the day before. I hope you enjoy today's episode and be sure to tell a friend to tell a friend. #culture #community #pop #podcast #new #episode #economy #infaltion #bank #gold #account

On today's episode we review one of our favorite movies. Not all time per se but it's making its way. Not sure how many in our community grew up on Indian movies but it was almost cultural growing up in Ghana. Hi Nanna is a lovely movie that depicts how true love never gives up even through unforeseen circumstances. The movie also depicts how our goals and dreams are never too far out of our reach. "Hard work pays no matter the cost." Without giving too much away...hope you take a listen to today's episode and enjoy it enough to take a gander at the movie. Enjoy!!

Wow is the year seemingly flying by....well as you already know it is another Tuesday and we are yet again releasing another great episode for you lot. On today's short episode we talk about the famous office lingo "Apples to Apples." Comparison is one of the most innate human nature that is crippling. As much as some of us try to avoid it, it keeps creeping its way back. Let's make a conscious effort to discover who we are as individuals and lives to the best we learn to know how. And there's no better way of optimizing the performance of life than looking to the Creator Himself. Get a drink, set your chair back and take a listen. Hope you enjoy and tell a friend!!! #pop #culture #community #applestoapples
The most appropriate way to best describe a life of a creative is simply as ambiguous as it is explicit. Walking that thin fine line is the mastery of a creative. It definitely takes time and realization of one's self. The term "Creative" is now popular in culture...almost like a buzz word and I believe most creatives do it because they feel most alive when they are walking in their God given gift. On today's episode our host speaks to his creative gift and abilities and how he realizes the purpose behind it all. Hope you enjoy the listen and tell a friend to tell a friend. #pop #creative #culture #community

Sit back, relax and I hope you enjoy today's episode as much as the team enjoyed creating it. #podcast #pop #creative #miccheck #arisingup #generation #life #selflove #selfworth #rediscovery
When was the most recent time you had to sell someone on an idea...be it a bros or girls trip, a purchase you desire or simply detailing why you are the best candidate for a said event??? It may not be as far back as you think and this is because I believe we sell ourselves more frequently than not. On today's episode I sit down with my author friend, Rose Francois to discuss how humans tend to sell themselves in most interactions and how not to sell ourselves short. Check it out and I hope you enjoy the episode as much as we enjoyed creating it. #plusonepodcast #sales #everything #time #money #podcast #miccheck #pop #culture #community
On today's episode I visit the studio once again after a short month of vacation...Yeah you heard me right a whole month spent in Ghana, my motherland. My mind, body, soul and spirit is always refreshed being home. I shed light on Ghana and the current state of the country and the path to development from the crazy Uber rides, the outrageous gas prices and poor leadership in general. Ghana is now top of the list when it comes to vacationing and you don't want to miss it whenever you have an opportunity to visit the motherland, Ghana. Trust me it would be well worth it. Hope you enjoy the episode and tell a friend to tell a friend.
