Ryan Holiday's book 'Courage is Calling' is the first of his Stoic Virtue Series that goes over the four fundamental virtues.

We had the privilege of interviewing the co-founders of Art of Passion Apparel - A sportswear and casual clothing brand located right here in the Mother City. It was established in 2016 by Gerald Dube the Co-Founder. After having a few struggles navigating through teenage hood he got tired of being around negative crowds. The AOPA brand stands for Unity and Positive change. It aims to inspire people from all walks of life to become united. It also aims to inspire individuality and embracing our roots. This is what “sui generis” stands for, being of your own kind, in a class of your own, therefore we are all unique.
