The Underdog Fight

In this episode, Trueman unpacks the raw power of being underestimated. He argues that the best time to swing hard, take risks, and break through is when you're the underdog, because when no one expects you to win, every step forward is already a victory.

With his usual blend of insight and fire, Trueman draws a bold line from underdog resilience to the spirit of entrepreneurship, urging young people to stop waiting for perfect conditions and start experimenting now. Whether you're building a business, chasing a dream, or just finding your voice, this episode is a rallying cry: the fight is yours to take—and there’s no better time than now.

That one rant about entrepreneurship

We are back babyyyy!!!!

This isn’t one of those “5 tips to build your dream startup” kind of chats. It’s the unfiltered, off-the-cuff, can-we-just-be-honest-for-a-sec type of vibe.

If you’ve ever rolled your eyes at the word “startup” or questioned why everything suddenly needs to be an app or a product made from plant fibres, this one’s for you.

Let’s talk.

50% Truth 50% What I Want

Information will always be one of the greatest tools that people can use to get what they want. By being able to manipulate the truth, people often take advantage of people. As young people, it is important to learn to identify what's true and what's false and to also understand that the way we do everything needs to change.

In this episode, I give a few thoughts on what I will call the 50-50 rule of information.

Enjoy!

It is really up to us.....or not!

How many times have you heard that 'It is up to the younger generation......' I think for the most part every generation is just pushing the responsibility of changing our continent to the next generation. In as much as the young people in any era are or should be instrumental in changing the continent, by continuing to push down the ultimate responsibility will do no good. 

In this episode, Hama calls today's generation to action!

Generational Wealth

Building generational wealth for the average African is nothing but a dream for many. Because of the ceiling we put on ourselves, we are unable to see beyond and to see the bigger vision. In this episode, Trueman gives an intro to how we should shift our perspective on generational wealth and some key points we can consider. 

Ultimately, generational wealth is about choosing a path, sticking with it and being patient. 

Special mention to: Mkonto, Benjamin and Anesu for the key points!

Propaganda to Properganda

This episode was inspired in part by King Kandoro's YouTube show called Properganda with Kandoro.

Propaganda is a thorn in our leadership structures in Africa (and even across the world). Propaganda destroys lives, businesses, and relationships because fundamentally, these are lies. This episode, in part, is a call to action to young people to be a fresh set of leaders with a hunger for difference. Be leaders who do not depend on prying on how gullible people are and hence create false narratives that exaggerate your work. 

As a set of new leaders, let's do the right thing: WORK!

If you want to be corrupt, listen to this first.

This episode was inspired by the shocking levels of corruption within our African States. The greatest tragedy of Africa is having a few individuals up the ladder comfortable with plundering resources meant for everyone and thus leaving more than half the population in extreme levels of poverty. As the young people we need to realign our thoughts and uproot the individualistic mindset that so long I am well and catered for then the rest don't matter because the rest do matter. Shared prosperity is way better than prosperity from cheating and taking unethical shortcuts!

Where does Ubuntu stand in Leadership?|Interview
Ubuntu was/is a critical part of our culture. In this episode, Trueman has a chat with Moses Machipisa in which they deconstruct Ubuntu and discuss ways in which Ubuntu can be reignited in leadership institutions and also how we can start that journey from the grassroots. As Africans, it is imperative that we have a new generation of leaders who are more concerned about the people they lead and this episode is highlighting exactly that.  Don't forget to share!!

What is politics and should it be a taboo to talk about it?

In this episode, Trueman shares a bit on politics and stresses the point that youth participation in politics is key in Africa's development. This is a follow up to the interlude: Wake up Africa in which he blamed African leaders and Africans in general for the situation in which we are in. 

Did you at some point believe that politics is a taboo to talk about? Do you still believe it is?

Inconsistency: Who is keeping the leaders accountable?
Accountability is the cornerstone of leadership, yet a lot of people do not pay attention to it. In this episode Trueman breaks down how having inconsistent systems often stems from having lack of accountability in organisations and governments. Accountability structures are a must in any and every organisation and as future leaders there is need to stress on that.  Please listen, share and give me feedback.
