Welcome to 2024 and to our very first episode to start the year right to help you on how to pursue those dreams and goals you have set for yourself.
Today we had Owen Rampha in our studio. Owen is the current General Manager at Yarona Fm, a local radio station here in Botswana.
He is infact one of our legendary radio broadcasters in our country and absolute honor to have to interview him. We tapped into Owen's life and professional journey -an absolute refreshing one to listen to as he shared extensively on the importance of knowing your calling in life and doing everything to ensure your pursue it.
The importance of fighting for the life and career you desire, by writing it down, visualising it daily and most importantly acting on it, is one of our takeaways from Owen's journey. His life is a testament of this.
We were mostly blown away by how multi talented he is - his sales strategy skills, broadcaster of note, music manager, radio station manager, DJ, researcher, teacher, trainer, an avid reader just to name a few.
We spoke about his journey on radio and how it transitioned to him leaving radio all together to end up in consulting.
The consulting business that had him relocate to Zambia to rebrand a local radio station there and taking it to new heights. - Major career highlight. The effects of 2020 Covid -19 restrictions on his business that left him unemployed and ended up in farming and how he ended up back on radio managing Yarona FM again.
We also touched the current challenges he is facing at Yarona FM and how he is tackling them.
This is a story the ups and down of a professional career in entertainment - how to be creative to diversify your income.
I hope you get to learn from this powerhouse as much and we did- an absolute must watch if I should say so myself. Happy watching and happy 2024.
