Why did I Start Gold Circle Podcast?
Gold Circle Podcast is rooted in the history of Ghana, the Land of Gold, once known as the Gold Coast. For many years the Dutch ruled parts of Ghana and called it de Goudkust which also means the Gold Coast. I grew up thinking this name referred to many places along the coast, but it was Ghana that carried this identity. For me this history is personal. I was born in the Netherlands, but my ancestors were taken from the Gold Coast to Suriname. My life moves between these worlds. Gold is part of my story. It represents value, opportunity, memory, and the legacy that connects Africa with its diaspora. Gold Circle is the place where these worlds come together. Through deep conversations with leaders, creators, entrepreneurs, and visionaries from the continent and the global diaspora, we build bridges of knowledge and understanding. We explore culture, creativity, innovation, and the power of returning to our roots. This podcast is a reconnection. It is a space for truth, growth, and possibility. It is where our stories form a circle that continues to expand. The Academy is a space where together we can reclaim the space and share our creativity and resilience with the world in the form of entrepreneurship! What do you want to get out of being in this group? Is it courses, discussions with each other, business opportunities, investing together, learning to create content... Whatever it is, leave it in the comments and with this academy we can facilitate those needs!
