Welcome to the Strug Kitchen! So, this is a slow cooker recipe based on one I found online, on The Recipe Rebel’s…

In light of the announcement of Free Senior High School policy initiative by the current administration of the Republic of Ghana, I would like to commend His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo on this bold step towards a brighter and more equitable future for Ghana. This article, however, shall attempt to assess the viability and implementation of this initiative as well as provide a platform for discussion on the best way forward as a nation.

Ever said yes when you really wanted to say no? Unfortunately, many of us, including myself, fall victim to this.
The real question here though is, how do you say “no” without offending the other party or in the worst case losing your job?

There’s quite a disconnect between the preparation we receive in school for life after school. If ultimately the purpose of school is to prepare you for the job market, it shouldn’t just prepare you to work but also prepare you to navigate the politics of it. We should learn skills such as salary negotiation, what to expect for an entry level job for your field, and everything else. However, this is most often not the case and so we have no choice but to roll with the tides.

So, you think you’re ready to move out, huh? But chances are, you have absolutely NO IDEA what’s waiting for you out there. So here’s a step by step walkthrough of what to expect when leaving your parents’ house to make your own home.

You probably read the title of this and thought, “What on earth is self-care?” Chances are, you already do know what it is on some level, and are doing it anyways. In that case, good for you! But if you aren’t, sure take a few minutes to read and see if it applies to you.

We’ve all heard about the need to invest. It’s supposed to provide benefits ranging from financial stability to obscene wealth. As a young adult in Ghana, you have probably figured out that even if you save a significant portion of a small income it will not magically transform into mansions and luxury cars down the line (and if you hadn’t, you’re welcome). Here’s a beginner’s guide to some of the best ways to invest your money in Ghana!

Tired of living with your parents? Do you have plans to build your own house in the future? Are you curious about what it requires? Whether you decide to take out a mortgage or put your own money into it, building a house is a huge challenge.

If you’ve decided to take the leap and build your own place, here are a few things you should know.

For many young adults in Ghana, there comes a time when you finally get to move into a place of your own. Perhaps you are a year or two into your professional career, and you’ve saved up enough to rent an apartment. You’re probably very excited at the prospect of this very grown-up move, but the pinch of paying rent makes it bittersweet. Yes, you might dislike paying some of your hard-earned salary to your landlord, but you will love feeling independent, even if you find a house to rent together with a roommate or housemate.

If like me you’ve tried every weight loss gadget or gizmo out there you know there’s no miracle cure for shedding the fat or more importantly feeling your absolute best. You’ve counted your macros and calories, bought that ‘goal outfit’ and tried every fad diet your Instagram feed has compelled you to double tap.
