What do you hold onto when the path you’ve chosen suddenly closes?

In this episode, Nollywood star Bucci Franklin opens up about the hard truths of his journey: how a denied visa ended his Hollywood plans, the realities of starting out with little to lean on, and why his only option was to believe in God.

He shares what it means to walk the creative path with conviction — from finding his footing in AY’s Crib, to making his mark with films like Rattlesnake and The Waiter, to his method approach in bringing Oboz to life in Netflix’s To Kill a Monkey. Bucci reflects on the discipline behind his craft, the courage to turn down opportunities that didn’t align, and his decision to embrace sobriety as part of living and working with integrity.

This conversation goes beyond acting. It’s about faith as a compass, resilience as a practice, and the creative journey as the place where identity, discipline, and purpose collide.
