Episode 10 - Why Ghanaian men cheat
I think its possible not to cheat, if you’re ruthless with breakups.
As long as you’re happy to walk away from your main person, there shouldn't be a need to cheat. But the problem comes when you don't want to give up your main partner even though something is missing, or your culture believes that your ability to cheat is a reflection of your manhood.
So I'll be discussing why men cheat, why cheating is allowed and why Ghanaian culture prefers an unhappy marriage to a divorce.

Episode 9 - Art and cultural capital
I love to self-reflect and asks questions I have never heard. In order to have a better understanding of the world and the people around me.
Something that I've noticed is the difference in the artistic expression of developing nations compared to developed nations - specifically Accra v London.
I find the fears and ambitions of a nation is reflected in the artistic expressions of its culture. Since people living in developed nations use art to self-reflect and meditate because they want their life to slow down. Whilst people living in developing nations use art to inspire and motivate because they want their life to change.
So I invite you to join the discussion and share your ideas of art in developing nations compared to developed nations.

So here is a deep dive into sexism.
