Almost five years ago, one of our bright beneficiaries, David, lost his mother after she travelled to the Upper East Region to seek medical treatment. He became an orphan. In the midst of that tragedy, he left Accra and disappeared from our scholarship programme. We did everything we could to bring him back. We had even identified a loving family that was ready to take him in so he could continue his education through our Student Training and Education Programme (STEP), but his family was not ready to let him return. We never gave up. In 2024, we heard that David had returned to Accra, so we travelled to Kasoa to look for him. We were relieved to find him, but his family was not forthcoming, making it difficult for us to stay in touch. Sadly, by the time we returned, he had been taken back to the Upper East Region. Then, just recently, we received the phone call we had been praying for. One of David’s cousins had brought him back after learning that he was being mistreated. At just 13 years old, David had been out of school for years and was being made to work on farms instead. Today, David is finally back. He may be behind in school, but he is not behind in potential. We are determined to help him catch up, heal, and build the future he deserves. As we prepare to support David’s return to school, he will need school fees, uniforms, books, stationery, personal items, counselling, and the care every child deserves to thrive. If David’s story has touched your heart and you would like to help him, we’d be very grateful for your support. Every contribution will go towards helping him rebuild his life and continue his education. Because every child deserves a chance. And at For The Future Ghana, we refuse to give up on children who need our help the most. If you’d like to support David, please send me a DM. 🙏🏽

“For a long time, I was a guest in our house” Thierry Henry speaks from his soul. He has depth. He’s a man in touch with himself. I recall some years ago, he spoke about how much he wanted to please his father on Steven Bartlett Diary of a CEO podcast. Everything he aimed to achieve was to please the voice that rang in his head, telling him to do it better. His father stood behind him while he built a career, probably saw the good many never saw. As a father, he also mentioned how COVID-19 changed his life. It was the point he chose his family. That was probably why he said at some point, he became a guest in his house. Men become guests in their house. There was a Reminisce Alaga interview I saw. I think it was on ISaidWhatISaidPod. He said there was a point he went into his daughter(s) room and asked when they painted the wall pink. His wife told him it’s been there for two years. He said that was the point he thought it important to rest on the tours and be with his children. At that point, he probably was a guest in his house. Men’s lives are not easy. Footballers especially — elite footballers most especially are like tour musicians. They’re often on the road. You’re playing away games round the country, spending three days or more away from home when you have continental away games. Gabriel Jesus spoke about the same thing in his recent interview with The Players’ Tribune titled “A Letter to My Family and my Arsenal Family”. He said football made him distant but his ACL injury brought him closer. “I wasn’t the husband and father that I needed to be,” he said. When his wife gave birth to his daughter, he said he only held her for one day. Brazil called and he had to go. And he was a guy who grew up without a father. For his child at the time, he was there now but wasn’t there too. “I always promised myself: When I become a father, I will always be there for my kids. “When Helena was born, I was not living up to that. I was there, but I was always distracted, you know? Always catching a flight.” That’s the tough decisions men have to make sometimes. At the point of growth and ascent, life will ask questions, and difficult decisions will need to be made. Hopefully, it will be one that won’t damage the future. The future one is securing.

ICYMI: Brad Jacobs, the founder of eight billion-dollar companies, makes an unexpected acknowledgment worth nearly $1 billion in his new book.. “I love David. I raised $750 million out of his David Senra audience, & I didn’t even have to pay him a fee,” & he laughed. He like slapped his knee & laughed." TLDR: The value of high-trust, high-signal media can quietly move hundreds of millions in capital. Credibility compounds over time. Read: How to Make a Few More Billion Dollars, Brad Jacobs David Senra, of David Senra & David Senra . . . I’m reading the book, not knowing this is about to happen, and he goes: “And then I found a different source of capital, which was two of the top 20 shareholders in the new company, came because David Senra profiled me on his Founders podcast.” And I’m like, “What? Oh my gosh.” So he had told me that in private, but then John, our mutual friend John Coogan (John Coogan), said "that was the best podcast endorsement of all time." So when I went to record with him in his house in Greenwich, we traveled with like a five-camera setup. It was like, we have an army that comes with us. And these aren’t business guys; these are just camera guys and podcast guys. And he goes, “I love David. I raised $750 million out of his audience, and I didn’t even have to pay him a fee,” and he laughed. He like slapped his knee and laughed. And I don’t know anything about investment banking, so I call a friend of mine. He’s like, “Oh yeah, that saved him quite a bit of money.” And so that’s what he’s talking about. It’s like, two people didn’t know who he was. They heard my episode on his first book. One put in $400 million. One put in $350 million and then joined his board. And they told Brad how they learned about him, and so then he put it in the book."

I've been waiting 10 years to ask someone these questions, and today I finally get to do that. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve been fascinated by American politics. Back then, I used to watch the elections, every interview and all the debates from my bedroom, trying to figure out why a system thousands of miles away felt so consequential to my life. So when I was given the chance to have a sit-down conversation with Vice President Of The United States JD Vance, I knew I didn’t just want to ask him about headlines. I wanted to understand the person behind the headlines. At the start of the conversation, I said to him: “To understand the people that are sitting in front of me, you have to get a picture of their early context.” And the reality is, I didn't truly know his context… What I really wanted to find out by speaking with VP is: How much of what people think they know about VP Vance is ACTUALLY true? Long before he entered the White House, VP grew up in a home shaped by addiction, poverty, instability, and a revolving door of father figures. I went into this conversation wanting to understand how a kid raised in addiction and instability became the Vice President of the United States. And then get to the bottom of what he really thinks about everything happening in the world right now with no questions left unsaid. We spoke about: - The childhood instability that shaped the way he sees people. - The conversation that changed his view of Donald Trump. - His return to Christianity after years as an atheist. - Whether he wants to be President one day. - The immigration debate that is dividing America. - Why doesn't he trust the UK Government? - Whether he thinks aliens exist… - When will a proposed ceasefire deal with Iran happen? - Navigating one of the most demanding jobs on earth while raising a young family. One of the things that I've come to learn is just try and meet everybody as I experience them. Regardless of where you stand politically, this conversation goes deeper than politics. And as a podcaster, having these conversations is important, as it goes beyond the headlines and shows you how the people in power actually think.
