  • Episode 69: "I am NOT Jesus, I will make sure they pay"
    In this episode, I sit down with *Dorcas Comedy World**, known on Facebook, and **Dorcas Braids by Kings LLC* on TikTok and Instagram. From gossip to braids, Dorcas has built a unique business and social media brand as a *"gossip braider"* in the United States—often braiding his clients while casually smacking on Trident Gum! 😂 But behind the humor and creativity is a much deeper story. We talk about: ✨ How Dorcas got into the braiding business and created the "gossip braider" brand ✨ The inspiration behind his unique approach to entertaining clients while braiding ✨ The bullying, harassment, and threats he experienced from members of the Cameroonian community—even before he publicly came out as gay ✨ Growing up without knowing his biological father ✨ His childhood, upbringing, and the experiences that shaped the person he is today ✨ Identity, resilience, acceptance, and finding the courage to live authentically ✨ The journey from pain and rejection to building a successful business and creating a platform for himself. This is a conversation about *more than hair, gossip, or social media.* It is about identity, survival, courage, family, community, and the power of becoming yourself unapologetically. *Watch, listen, and let me know what part of Dorcas' story resonated with you the most.* 🎧 *You Can Be Anything Podcast — Episode 69* 👉🏾 Don't forget to *LIKE, COMMENT, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE* to the channel! #YouCanBeAnythingPodcast #Episode69 #DorcasComedyWorld #DorcasBraidsByKings #Cameroon #Cameroonian #GossipBraider #LGBTQ #ComingOut #Authenticity #Resilience #Entrepreneurship #AfricanStories #CameroonianCommunity #YouCanBeAnything

  • Episode 70: From Dreams to Impact - Meet Stephanie Tum | Actress and Producer
    She left a steady job in 2017 to bet everything on film. Today, Stephanie Tum's production company has built a slate of more than fifteen films that you can watch on YouTube. In this episode of The You Can Be Anything, I sit down with actress, producer, filmmaker, and entrepreneur Stephanie Tum, founder of EMBI Company Ltd and the Embi Charity Foundation, based in Bamenda, Cameroon. Beyond the screen, Stephanie founded GirlsAndHygiene to champion menstrual health education and BreakTheStigma to open up honest conversations about mental health. She is also a mother of two, building businesses across film, television, and cosmetics. *In this conversation* We talk about the leap from a stable job to building a film company from nothing, the making of her most personal and acclaimed work, what it meant to see The Planters Plantation represent Cameroon on the world's biggest stage, and the advocacy she's built around menstrual health and mental health. She also speaks directly about the killing of women in Cameroon, with hard, practical advice for anyone who feels their life may be in danger. *A few moments that stayed with us*
    • "A red flag is a red flag. There's no excuse for it. Leave, leave, please." — Stephanie's message to any woman who senses danger in her situation.
    • Her call for women to build financial independence and their own "escape fund" — because when the moment comes to leave, having nowhere to go can be the difference between safety and staying.
    • Her appeal to the people around a woman in danger — partners, siblings, friends — not to blame her, mock her, or pressure her to stay.
