Meet Ekua.PM (also known by her initials EPM). She hosts a podcast called Afrolit, highlighting the stories of metropolitan Africans, like herself. Ekua's also a media personality, a DJ, and co-founded her own collective called The Faro, known for curating fun cultural experiences for the public and private sector, having worked with Africa Fashion Week, OkayAfrica and Global Citizen.

Rich and Ekua sit down and have a joyful discussion about her journey and upbringing, the differences between East and West Africans, similarities in the ways immigrants parents raise their kids, and what it means to be a "Third Culture Kid".
