    Claudia Lumor: Building Glitz Africa, Finding Your Calling & Entering Politics

    18/09/2026 | 1h 25 mins.
    In this episode of The Peswa Podcast, we sit down with Claudia Lumor, founder of Glitz Africa, for a wide-ranging conversation about entrepreneurship, purpose, calling, leadership, politics and the journey of building something that outlives you.

    Claudia takes us through her journey from working in banking in the UK and Ghana to building Glitz Africa into a major platform for African fashion, media, creativity and storytelling.But this conversation goes far beyond Glitz.

    We explore what it actually means to have a calling, how to recognize what you may be called to do, and the courage required to answer that call when it takes you away from the path you originally planned.

    From building a brand from an idea to understanding purpose, ambition, failure and service, this is a conversation about what you are here to build—and what you do when you finally realize it.If you're trying to figure out your purpose, build something meaningful, or understand what it takes to move from idea → calling → execution → impact, this conversation is for you.

    Watch, listen and join the conversation.Subscribe to The Peswa Podcast for more conversations with entrepreneurs, creators, leaders and people building the future of Ghana and Africa.

    Your Decisions Affect More Than You — Eric Gugua on Ambition, Suffering & Family

    11/09/2026 | 49 mins.
    In this episode of The Peswa Podcast, we sit down with Eric Gugua for a deeply personal conversation about identity, purpose, ambition, suffering, family and the price of becoming the person you were meant to be.
    Eric takes us through his journey of building Saneside and Beyond Creatives, and the lessons he has learned along the way about knowing who you are—and deciding early what you want your life to stand for.
    We talk about why it is important to define yourself before the world defines you, and why some of the most meaningful things you can pursue will inevitably demand sacrifice, pain and suffering.
    But the conversation goes deeper.
    Eric opens up about growing up through difficult circumstances with a single mother and how those experiences shaped the person he became. He reflects on the weight of individual decisions and a sobering reality many people don't think about enough:
    One person's decision can put an entire family under attack.
    From entrepreneurship and creativity to family, identity, purpose and the hidden cost of making consequential choices, this is a conversation about what it really means to build a life that matters.
    If you're trying to figure out who you are, what you want to achieve, or whether the struggle you're experiencing is worth it, this episode is for you.

    Beyond Conversation is coming to Accra.

    "Grief Took Away My Creativity" – Hayet Rida: The Story Behind KHOI, Love, Loss & Starting Again

    21/08/2026 | 52 mins.
    In this deeply personal episode of The Peswa Podcast, we sit down with Hayet Rida, founder of KHOI, to talk about creativity, entrepreneurship, failure, reinvention, love, loss and the difficult process of learning how to keep going.
    Hayet's journey to building KHOI was anything but conventional.
    A creative strategist and longtime content creator, she turned years of experience in advertising, branding and community-building into a sculptural accessories brand that has grown from an unexpected opportunity into an internationally recognised creative business.
    KHOI began in 2022, after a failed jewelry collaboration left Hayet with thousands of dollars worth of packaging. Instead of seeing the setback as the end, she turned it into the beginning of something of her own.In this conversation, Hayet opens up about grief, love and what it means to continue living and building when life doesn't go according to plan.She speaks honestly about the emotional reality of loss, the pressure to keep functioning, the role of work and creativity in processing difficult seasons, and what she has learned about resilience, vulnerability and moving forward.This isn't just a conversation about building a jewelry brand.It's a conversation about building a life — losing part of it — and finding the courage to keep creating.
    This is one of our most vulnerable conversations yet.Watch, listen and share your thoughts with us.
