POD FAM 💚 This week, I’m sitting down with two powerhouses, Eche and Chika, the voices behind the Afropolitan Podcast, to talk about what it really means to come home. We get deep about identity, purpose, and the beauty (and chaos) of living between two worlds, America and Nigeria. From building community and unlearning scarcity, to redefining success and wealth on our own terms… this one is special.
