In this episode of Creatives Like Us, Celestine Ekpenyong, a storyteller, poet and aspiring motivational speaker, sits down and talks with your host Angela Lyons. He takes us through his vibrant journey of creative expression, from childhood reading ambitions to publishing his poetry after three decades. He shares his personal insights on the power of storytelling, embracing one's cultural roots and inspiring the next generation through his work and public speaking ambitions.

We talk about his debut poetry collection and why 2025 became the year he finally stopped saying "next year." He even reads two poems live in the studio, including the deeply moving Remember Me, written as a love letter to his family.
