How do you stop negotiating with yourself when life forces you to walk away from what you're building?

In this episode, we meet Ghanaian entrepreneur and creative professional Yaa Boateng, who takes us through her journey from graphic designer to creative director and eventually a creative entrepreneur as the co-founder of The Storytellers.

Yaa opens up about navigating career pivots in the midst of grief, building resilience, and the importance of mentorship and global representation of the African creative industry. She also shares why she is committed to giving back through SIBI Africa, an initiative empowering the next generation of African creatives.

If you're interested in applying for the 2026 SIBI program, applications are open now. The deadline is December 5, 2025.
