In this episode of Stay By Plan, Afi and Eleanor sit down with Kodzo Nyanyuie, founder of the Good News brand.

What started as a conversation about building a clothing business quickly turns into something deeper.

Kodzo shares his journey of creating a brand rooted in purpose, from running a streetwear line to helping others print and build their own merchandise. But beyond the business, he opens up about the role faith has played in guiding his decisions, shaping his mindset, and keeping him grounded through the process.

They get into the realities of starting and running a merch business, finding direction when things don’t go as planned, balancing ambition with personal values, and what it really means to trust the process.

This is an honest, thoughtful, and down-to-earth conversation about purpose, business, and belief. ❤️
