Unbroken Podcast with Richard Akita

You can do everything right. You can wake up next to the same person for 30 years. But if you're not intentional about keeping the passion alive, you'll end up living alongside them instead of living with them. In this deeply personal, beautifully vulnerable episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Rami Osafo, veteran broadcaster, DJ, and radio legend, for a conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about what it means to stay married for 30 years, how a stammering, painfully shy teenager became a voice on the radio, and the uncomfortable truth that after three decades you can still wake up and wonder who is this woman in my bed. Rami holds nothing back. He breaks down why keeping passion alive after 30 years requires intentionality because complacency pushes you into a groove that's not always a nice groove, why his answer to how do you manage 30 years with the same woman is honestly I don't know it's the grace of God, and the one prayer he prays all the time: help me to understand this woman better even after 30 years. He reveals why his wife is like the peace of God because she passes all understanding, how sometimes she will do things that make him think where is she from what's she doing in my bed and then he looks again and it's his wife, and the moment he realized that left to his shyness and stammering and lack of confidence he might never have married her. He also explains why she went back to her friends the day they met and told them I've met the man I'm going to marry, how his proposal was sitting down a year into the relationship and saying so are we going to get married and she said oh I thought so, and the one person who pushed him to finally get married after five years: his mother of blessed memory who said you keep saying you don't have money but you start we'll find the money from somebody. This isn't just a love story. It's a masterclass in understanding how radio forced a stammerer to become a better speaker, why the first day at Joy FM in 1995 he hardly spoke because his hand would shake so much before touching the mic button that people would think he was an alcoholic, and how the microphone forced him to speak better because it's only you and the microphone and the people listening can't see you or hear you but they are listening. Rami dives into why he's been DJing since he was 18 and is still doing three or four gigs a year not for money but for passion, how the reward of seeing people come up and say I haven't heard that song for 30 years is what keeps him going, and the uncomfortable reality that in secondary school if a nice girl walked into the classroom during a free period his prayer to God would be please don't let her speak to me because if she said hello my name is Ama he'd be stuck trying to say his own name. He also tackles why he loves to read especially fiction because there's too much wahala going on in the world, how movies and music are his escape, and the one thing he tells people when they ask him to describe his wife in one sentence: my wife is like the peace of God because she passes all understanding. If you're married, wondering how to keep the passion alive after decades, or asking yourself whether happiness is something you chase or something you build through intentionality and prayer, this conversation will give you the clarity, the language, and the courage to stop living alongside your partner and start living with them.

You can do everything right. You can work yourself to the bone. But if you're the only one carrying the weight of provision while your partner sits back and says my money is my money and your money is for the home, something is broken. In this raw, deeply practical episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with a traditional chief and community leader for an unfiltered conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about what it means to provide, why the old model of men providing everything is collapsing under the weight of modern reality, and the uncomfortable truth that provision is no longer the sole responsibility of the husband but a joint effort that requires both partners to show up. This guest holds nothing back. He breaks down why the idea of the man being the provider has shifted from men providing everything to both partners contributing, why some men are just not responsible and leave everything for the woman to do, and the one phrase that's destroying marriages before they even begin: my money is my money, the man's money is for the home. He reveals why it depends on the upbringing of the woman, how his wife was told during their marriage that when you get money you bring it home but when there's any debt your husband is there to take care of it, and the moment you realize that women keep money better than men because the day to day affairs you're on set. He also explains why he tells his daughters I'm not going to kill myself and leave everything for you, how he's giving them education so they can be independent and help their husbands build a home instead of waiting for their husbands to provide everything, and the one thing every father needs to teach his children: if you want to be independent from your husband then take your school serious and get a good job. This isn't just about money. It's a masterclass in understanding why some men are scared to see their wives rise more than them, why if you marry a professional and ask her not to work then you need to provide, and how when the woman is working and the man is also working it becomes a partnership. He dives into why women are more studious with money and build on the capital while men take the money and see a girl they've been chasing and give her 500 before they even get home, how if you take 10 women and 10 men maybe two women might come back failing but seven men will come failing, and the uncomfortable reality that the woman has to wake up early morning make sure the kids are ready walk the children to school come back get the man food to eat and go to work while the man sits somewhere pushing draft and chatting with his friends. He also tackles why it gets to a point where the woman is also a human being and she will say it to you and that will build your ego and then there's fighting, how we as fathers should lead by example in our homes, and the one truth every man needs to accept: provision is done jointly now. If you're married, wondering whether your value as a man is tied to how much you provide, or asking yourself why your partner says their money is theirs while expecting you to carry everything, this conversation will give you the clarity, the language, and the courage to stop killing yourself trying to provide alone and start building a home where both of you show up and do what is necessary. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎙️ ABOUT THE HOST Mr Richard Akita is a multifaceted relationship and life coach, author, entrepreneur, and corporate trainer with over 30–35 years of experience in management and personal development.

You can do everything right. You're just one person in a relationship. And whilst you're thinking north, the other person is dealing with all kinds of demons in their lives. In this raw, deeply challenging episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Kofi Watting, lawyer and ordained minister, for an unfiltered conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about what makes a marriage last, why biblical submission goes both ways, and the uncomfortable truth that divorce was never God's original idea but a concession to the hardness of human hearts. Kofi holds nothing back. He breaks down why Ephesians 5:21 says submit to one another before it tells wives to submit to their husbands, why respect is among the top five needs of men according to Dr. Willard Harley's His Needs Her Needs, and the one thing most people miss when reading scripture: Paul gives three verses to wives and eight verses to husbands because there is more responsibility on the man. He reveals why husbands are commanded to love their wives as Christ loved the church and wash her with the word, how intimacy requires transparency so you can wash your spouse with words of affirmation and truth, and the moment you realize that your children are watching how you treat each other and learning through observation what a good marriage looks like. He also explains why don't let the sun go down on your anger is not always realistic, how at least acknowledging there's a problem before you go to bed and agreeing to deal with it later can save your sanity, and the one question every couple needs to ask: which is easier, wives submit or husbands love your wife as Christ loved the church? This isn't just marriage advice. It's a masterclass in understanding why infidelity is the easiest ground for divorce because scripture supports it, why God allowed Moses to grant divorce because of the hardness of your heart, and how you can always forgive and rebuild trust even when it feels like the worst thing that ever happened to your marriage. Kofi dives into why the serial cheater was probably like that before you met them and you knew it and married them anyway, how the things that attract us in the beginning are the same things that become a distraction, and the uncomfortable reality that the life of the party who makes everybody laugh becomes the spouse flirting with everybody after marriage and he hasn't changed this is exactly who you met. He also tackles why some people show up when it matters even though they have bad behaviors or bad morals, how the person who has checked out completely hardly comes home and doesn't take up any responsibility, and the one thing you need to do when you've been faithful and done everything and this is the payback you get: say God take over I'm done fighting I'm done trying and watch God do his own thing. If you're married, wondering whether there's hope when one person is being intentional and the other doesn't want to know, or asking yourself at what point you say enough is enough, this conversation will give you the clarity, the language, and the courage to stop waiting for perfect and start building a marriage where both of you surrender to God, communicate your feelings, and work together to hit the potholes without parking the car and saying I'm not driving anymore.

You can do everything right. You're just one person in a relationship. And whilst you're thinking north, the other person is dealing with all kinds of demons in their lives. In this deeply personal, profoundly insightful episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down for a raw, unfiltered conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about what it takes to sustain a marriage, why parallel growth matters more than staying the same, and the uncomfortable truth that love alone will never be enough when the children leave and it's just the two of you sitting in an empty house. This conversation holds nothing back. It breaks down why both partners must grow even if one goes down the route of education and the other chooses business, why the goals must be the same and the values must be the same and communication must be 360 degrees, and the one thing most couples refuse to accept: the glue that held them together was the children, and now they have nothing in common. The discussion reveals why you should never wait for your children to completely leave before you reconnect, how spending time together away from the kids while they're in boarding school is an opportunity to patch things up before the gap becomes too wide, and the moment you realize that travel forces couples to have real conversations because when you're away from home and away from domestic responsibilities it's just you and I and we're forced to talk. It also explains why some people wait too long to address the gap when one spouse rises and the other stays behind, how it's easier to bring your partner along while you're climbing than to go back and try to raise them from the ground up after you've already made it, and the one question every successful person needs to ask themselves: am I being kind to my first love? This isn't just marriage advice. It's a masterclass in understanding why the empty nest stage is when a lot of couples break up, why a little bit of independence is healthy so you're not overly dependent on your spouse, and how having your own hobbies and pastimes brings fulfillment without threatening the marriage. The conversation dives into why husbands should love their wives as Christ loved the church even though the church is full of sinners, how you can do everything right but still need the grace of God because you're just one person and the other person is dealing with demons you don't even know about, and the uncomfortable reality that don't let the sun go down on your anger is not realistic because some issues are not resolved in a few hours or even a month. It also tackles why your children are watching how you respect each other and how you treat each other and that's the legacy you're building, how a boy who sees his father being abusive will take that into his own relationships, and the one thing every couple at the empty nest stage needs to do: invest in the relationship almost as though you've just started all over again. If you're married, preparing for an empty nest, or wondering whether doing everything right is enough to guarantee a good marriage, this conversation will give you the clarity, the language, and the courage to stop waiting for things to fall apart and start building a marriage where both of you grow together and create memories that last. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎙️ ABOUT THE HOST Mr Richard Akita is a multifaceted relationship and life coach, author, entrepreneur, and corporate trainer with over 30–35 years of experience in management and personal development.

You can do everything right. You're just one person in a relationship. And whilst you're thinking not, the other person is dealing with all kinds of demons in their lives. In this raw, deeply challenging episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Kofi Watting, lawyer and ordained minister, for an unfiltered conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about what makes a marriage last, why love alone will never be enough, and the uncomfortable truth that compatibility, resources, and shared values matter more than feelings and attraction. Kofi holds nothing back. He breaks down why love without the necessary resources to maintain a family can put the family in very difficult situations, why Janet Jackson was wrong when she said the best things in life are free because love is not free, and the one thing most couples refuse to discuss before marriage: compatibility. He reveals why some marriages are transactional where somebody is looking for a sponsor and they see a man who has all the money in the world and they see a father figure who's going to bring the entire family out of poverty, how age gaps and interracial marriages come with expectations that must be discussed during the courtship period, and the moment you realize that the young lady engaged to a much older divorced man will face constant accusations and insecurity because he feels threatened by younger men. He also explains why many of us are on our best behavior whilst we're dating or courting and it's only when we say I do that the hidden parts of us are revealed to our spouse, how these habits were always there before marriage and didn't just appear after the wedding, and the one thing every couple needs to do before they walk down the aisle: go through a courtship period where you have serious conversations about the future, financial habits, and love languages. This isn't just marriage advice. It's a masterclass in understanding why lust blinds us during courtship, why after you're married for a year or two you know exactly who you're married to and it's easier to articulate the issues of contention, and how inviting a neutral third party can save your marriage because there are people who don't see any wrong in what they do and will not listen to their spouse. Kofi dives into why you should agree on a referee for your marriage even before you get married, how referees don't come into the game to back one side but to ensure fairness, and the uncomfortable reality that some lawyers were married to individuals who helped them through law school and then once they became lawyers or politicians they realized these people were not suited to them and they left them. He also tackles why it's easier to bring your partner along while you're upgrading your skills and climbing the career ladder than to wait too long and then try to raise somebody else from the ground up after you've already made it, how by that time you're already mingling with a certain class of people and you may have already identified people that you think are more suitable to you, and the one question every successful person needs to ask themselves: am I being kind to my first love? If you're married, wondering whether love is enough to hold you together, or asking yourself how to navigate the disparity when one spouse rises and the other stays behind, this conversation will give you the clarity, the language, and the courage to stop relying on feelings alone and start building a marriage where love is supported by resources, compatibility, and intentionality.

Love is not enough. You can do everything right. You're just one person in a relationship. And whilst you're thinking not, the other person is dealing with all kinds of demons in their lives. In this powerful, deeply vulnerable episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Kofi Watting, lawyer and ordained minister, for a raw, unfiltered conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about what makes a marriage last, why love alone is never enough, and the uncomfortable truth that shared goals and shared values matter more than attraction and feelings. Kofi holds nothing back. He breaks down why a good marriage is built on shared goals and shared values, not just physical attraction, why intimacy must be 360 degrees including financial transparency and emotional honesty, and the one thing most couples are hiding from each other that destroys intimacy before it even begins: their finances. He reveals why in a lot of our homes spouses are hiding financial assets because they tell you you're going to make too many demands, how some people get married or are courting and yet they still don't know how much they're both earning, and the moment you realize that being naked before each other means more than just physical nakedness. He also explains why sharing his deepest fears and insecurities with his wife doesn't belittle his stature as the head of the home but strengthens their bond, how his wife encourages him before a difficult court case by saying I know you I trust you just go break some legs, and the one thing every couple needs to hear: communication and honesty are the foundation of everything. This isn't just marriage advice. It's a masterclass in understanding why love alone is not enough, why you need resources and compatibility and intentionality to keep a relationship going, and how spending time together before your children leave is the key to surviving the empty nest stage. Kofi dives into why couples should have serious conversations about the future, financial habits, and love languages before they say I do, how these habits were always there before marriage and didn't just appear after the wedding, and the uncomfortable reality that many couples wait until their children leave before they realize they've grown so wide apart. He also tackles why travel helps couples reconnect because when you're away from home and away from domestic responsibilities it's just you and I and we're forced to have conversations, how the emptiness stage is an opportunity to invest in the relationship almost as though you've just started all over again, and the one thing every parent needs to remember: your children are watching you, they are watching how you respect each other, how you react, how you treat each other, and that's the legacy you're building. If you're married, wondering whether love is enough to hold you together, or asking yourself why your spouse doesn't know your deepest fears, this conversation will give you the clarity, the language, and the courage to stop hiding and start building a marriage where both of you are naked and unafraid.

Your daughter needs to see how a man should love her. Your son needs to see how a man should lead. And your marriage needs more than love. It needs boundaries, emotional intelligence, and the courage to stay out until 6 a.m. if that's what keeps you safe. In this deeply insightful, wildly entertaining episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with John, Ghana's self-proclaimed enjoyment president and owner of Soho, for a raw, unfiltered conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about fatherhood, romance after 14 years of marriage, and why the most relevant people in Ghana don't go home until sunrise. John holds nothing back. He breaks down why fathers must invest time in their daughters or risk them falling for the wrong kind of man, how he sends his daughter flowers on Valentine's Day so she knows what it feels like to be admired, and the uncomfortable truth that if you're absent in your daughter's life any man can come and show her his idea of being loved. He reveals why changing diapers and warming milk at 3 a.m. is not abnormal but necessary, how emotionally drained partners lead to marriages that go haywire, and the one thing every father needs to teach his daughter: how she deserves to be dated. He also explains why he takes his daughter on dates, how his wife threatened him to send flowers before some boy does it first, and the moment his daughter found out it was him all along and asked why he was doing it. This isn't just about fatherhood. It's a masterclass in keeping romance alive after 14 years, why boundaries and emotional intelligence are the foundation of every lasting marriage, and how reflection is the key to responding instead of reacting. John dives into why he hosts his wife and her Wesley Girls friends at Soho for comedy nights, how he stays out until 6 a.m. not because he's reckless but because armed robbers operate between 11 p.m. and 4 a.m., and the one rule he gave his wife: if you're going out with your girls and you're not coming home before midnight stay where you are it's safer. He also shares why Soho is not just a party spot but a networking hub where business leaders, ministers of state, and high commissioners hang out, how you can lay the groundwork for a business deal on Friday night and sign the paperwork on Monday morning, and the one piece of advice he gives Richard before his first visit: sleep for two to three hours before you come you will need it. If you're a father wondering how to raise confident daughters, a husband trying to keep the spark alive after a decade, or someone who thinks going home at 3 a.m. is safer than staying out until sunrise, this conversation will give you the clarity, the language, and the courage to rethink everything you thought you knew about love, safety, and what it means to enjoy life while building something that lasts.

You can do everything right. You're just one person in a relationship. And whilst you're thinking not, the other person is dealing with all kinds of demons in their lives. In this powerful, deeply vulnerable episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Kofi Watting, lawyer and ordained minister, for a raw, unfiltered conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about what makes a marriage last, why love alone is never enough, and the uncomfortable truth that the things that attract us are the same things that become a distraction. Kofi holds nothing back. He breaks down why a good marriage is built on shared goals and shared values, not just attraction and feelings, why two introverts can stay together and two extroverts can clash and both can make it work if they choose to, and the one thing most couples are hiding from each other that destroys intimacy before it even begins: their finances. He reveals why in a lot of our homes spouses are hiding financial assets because they tell you you're going to make too many demands, how some women suffer economic abuse not because their husbands are withholding but because he doesn't have it and he's doing his best, and the moment you realize that this man who comes home every day and is trying is the best husband you could ever have. He also explains why when you say I do that's when love actually opens your eyes, why you start noticing all the things that irritate you after the wedding and not before, and the one question every couple on the verge of divorce needs to hear: hold it. This isn't just marriage advice. It's a masterclass in understanding intimacy beyond the physical, why being naked before each other means financial transparency and emotional honesty, and how Adam and Eve were naked and not embarrassed because intimacy is 360 degrees. Kofi dives into why he left the Catholic church to join his wife's charismatic church so their children wouldn't be confused between the noisy church and the orderly one, how sharing his deepest fears with his wife before a court case doesn't belittle his stature but strengthens their bond, and the uncomfortable reality that the person who is a serial cheater was like that before you met them and you knew it and you got married to them anyway. He also tackles why the things that attract us are the same things that become a distraction, how the life of the party who makes everybody laugh becomes the spouse flirting with everybody after marriage, and the one thing people refuse to accept: he hasn't changed, this is exactly who you met. If you're married, struggling with transparency, or wondering whether love is enough to hold you together when everything else is falling apart, this conversation will give you the clarity, the language, and the courage to stop hiding and start building a marriage where both of you are naked and unafraid.

You said I do. You didn't listen to anybody. Now you're married. So what do you do when you finally see who you're really married to? In this raw, deeply practical episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with a seasoned relationship expert for a conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about navigating marriage after the wedding, what to do when your spouse outgrows you, and the uncomfortable truth that love alone is never enough when the children leave and it's just the two of you sitting in an empty house. This guest holds nothing back. He breaks down why after you're married for a year or two you know exactly who you're married to, why it's easier to articulate the issues of contention when you've been together long enough to see the patterns, and the one thing most couples refuse to do that could save their marriage: invite a neutral third party. He reveals why you should agree on a referee for your marriage before you even say I do, how referees don't come into the game to back one side but to ensure fairness, and the moment you realize that the person who doesn't listen to you will listen to someone they respect. He also explains why many couples wait too long to address the gap when one spouse rises and the other stays behind, how it's easier to bring your partner along while you're climbing than to go back and try to raise them from the ground up after you've already made it, and the one question every successful person needs to ask themselves: am I being kind to my first love?

He dives into why lust is before you say I do but love actually opens your eyes after the wedding, how you start noticing all the things that irritate you once the lust has been taken off, and the uncomfortable reality that during the empty nest stage a lot of couples break up because the glue that held them together was the children. He also tackles why you should never wait for your children to completely leave before you reconnect, how spending time together away from the kids while they're in boarding school is an opportunity to patch things up before the gap becomes too wide, and the one thing that forces couples to have real conversations again: travel, because when you're away from home and away from domestic responsibilities it's just you and I and we're forced to talk. If you're married, wondering how to stay connected when life pulls you in different directions, or asking yourself whether it's healthy for your spouse to grow independently, this conversation will give you the clarity, the language, and the courage to stop waiting for things to fall apart and start building a marriage where both of you grow together. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎙️ ABOUT THE HOST Mr Richard Akita is a multifaceted relationship and life coach, author, entrepreneur, and corporate trainer with over 30–35 years of experience in management and personal development.

Sometimes you want to be with somebody, but the list will scare you away. So now women don't marry who they love. They marry who can afford them. In this explosive, deeply provocative episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Bernard Kojo Pencil, actor, media personality, and Bible scholar, for a raw, unfiltered conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about bride price, dowry lists, marriage expectations, and why so many young men are walking away from the altar before they even get there. Mamaba holds nothing back. He breaks down why the modern bride price system has turned women into products to be bought instead of people to be loved, why some lists are so outrageous they include cars and houses, and the uncomfortable truth that when men see what's required just to say I do, they run. He reveals why Ronald did his wedding in his living room, how even Ronaldo could afford a luxurious ceremony but chose simplicity instead, and the one question every parent needs to answer: are you trying to marry off your daughter or sell her? He also explains why marriage was never meant to be this expensive, how the greed of man turned a simple token into a commercial transaction, and why most women today are not marrying the men they love but the men who can afford the list. This isn't just about bride price. It's a masterclass in understanding why your money belongs to both of you, why hiding your salary makes you a business partner and not a wife, and the shocking reality that there is no currency in this world rated as female money. Mamaba dives into why women were created as helpmates and not housekeepers, why a woman's gift can make her richer than her husband and that should never be a problem, and the one thing every woman needs to hear: when women make money, men should not become their enemy. He also tackles why men are afraid to admit they're struggling, how women insult men the moment they borrow money from them, and why most men would rather go to strangers for help than ask their wives because putting your hand in the mouth of a lion will definitely get you bitten. If you're planning to get married, wondering why the list is longer than your savings account, or asking yourself why your partner hides their money while you pour everything into the home, this conversation will give you the clarity, the courage, and the language to stop treating marriage like a shopping list and start building it like a partnership.

Living with someone is not the same as living alongside them. One is a partnership. The other is just coexistence. In this deeply personal, beautifully vulnerable episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Rami Osafo, veteran broadcaster and radio legend, for a conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about what it means to stay married for 30 years, the difference between laughing at your partner and laughing with them, and how to prepare for an empty nest when your children are the glue that held everything together. Rami opens up about the one piece of advice he wishes he'd known at the beginning of his marriage: the difference between living alongside a person and living with them. He reveals why happiness is not a destination but a product of doing the right things, why serving God must come first before serving your partner, and the one thing every man should aim for in the bedroom: pleasing her, because what pleases her will inevitably please him too. He also shares why he still buys Valentine's Day cards after 30 years, the particular shop in Accra where he browses for the perfect words, and why electronic cards will never do it for him no matter how expensive paper ones become. This isn't just a story about staying married. It's a masterclass in intentionality, love languages, and why date nights matter more now than they did in year one. Rami breaks down the weekends they used to spend in hotels just lounging by the pool and talking, how his wife has recently started pushing for institutionalized date nights and he's finally responding, and the moment she suggested they visit the Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Park because they've been living in Accra and never been there. He also explains why words of affirmation is his love language and why the first person to express it has to be him, how he used to stop at supermarkets on his way home to buy chocolate or flowers just because, and the uncomfortable truth that he loves his children a little too much and doesn't know how he'll handle it when they're all gone and it's just him and his wife sitting in the hall asking when the next date night is. If you're married, preparing for an empty nest, or wondering whether happiness is something you chase or something you build, this conversation will give you the language, the courage, and the roadmap to stop living alongside your partner and start living with them.

He couldn't speak without stammering. She insisted on kissing him before he left the house, even after a fight. Thirty years later, they're still here. In this deeply personal episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Rami Osafo, veteran broadcaster and radio legend, for a conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about overcoming your weaknesses, building a marriage without a manual, and what it really takes to stay together when life throws everything at you. Rami opens up about the day he got offered a radio job at Joy FM despite being a stammerer, the first show where he could barely speak, and how the microphone in front of him forced him to become a better speaker. He reveals the moment his hand would shake so badly before pressing the mic button that people thought he was an alcoholic, the grace of God that turned his greatest weakness into his greatest strength, and why he believes radio saved his speech and possibly his life. He also shares the night his wife proposed to him, the April 1995 wedding that came before his radio career, and the two months after marriage when his wife got pregnant and everything changed. This isn't just a story about overcoming a stammer. It's a masterclass in doing life together without a roadmap, why most men don't remember their wedding anniversary but Rami does, and the one thing his wife insisted on that kept their marriage alive through every disagreement: kiss me before you leave. Rami dives into the night their daughter screamed for an hour and both of them ended up in the spare room leaving the baby to cry herself to sleep, why the problems of life made them stay longer instead of tearing them apart, and the violent arguments that never led to sleeping on the couch but turning your back in the same bed instead. He also explains why they didn't make a conscious decision to stay for the long haul, how life just unfolded and they responded together, and the moment he got down on his knees and thanked God for becoming a father then stood up and asked, which part of me is father like? If you're building a marriage without a manual, struggling with a weakness you think disqualifies you, or wondering whether love is a decision or just life happening, this conversation will give you the clarity, the courage, and the permission to stop waiting for perfect and start building with what you have.

Marriage is not about two families. It's about a family that came from two families, void of control from either one. In this powerful, deeply insightful episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Dr. Kelly Daniels, family advocate and relationship consultant, for a raw conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about who's really in charge of your relationship and what it means to be mature enough for marriage. Dr. Daniels holds nothing back. He breaks down why in-laws can ruin your marriage if you let them control instead of influence, why dating someone still controlled by their parents is not a red flag but a billboard, and the uncomfortable truth that if you keep seeing your partner's father or mother's influence in every decision they make, you're dating them and not your partner. He also reveals why marriage is not for boys and girls but for mature males and females, why maturity is the restriction of discipline in exhibiting the best version of yourself regardless of the pressure, and the one question every woman must answer before she says yes: can I look up to this man? This isn't just relationship advice. It's a masterclass in understanding leadership, submission, and why a woman can earn more than a man and still look up to him if he has financial superintendence. Dr. Daniels dives into why you don't marry a man out of empathy, how a man can lead financially even when he earns less by showing discipline and priority with what he has, and why a woman governing a nation should still be under the leadership of her husband not in policy but in the reflection of his impact on her life. He also tackles why most couples fail because they haven't worked on themselves individually before coming together, why your values must align even if your maturity is high, and the one thing that makes two people stay together and grow together: a mutual goal bigger than both of them. If you're dating, engaged, or wondering why your relationship feels like it has too many voices in it, this conversation will give you the clarity, the language, and the courage to build a marriage that belongs to you and your partner alone.

A helper is not a housekeeper. A leader is not a dictator. And love is not what you think it is. In this deeply insightful episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Dr. Kelly Daniels, family advocate and relationship consultant, for a raw, unfiltered conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about attraction, love, and what it really takes to build a marriage that lasts. Dr. Daniels holds nothing back. He explains why love should come with a caution label, why a lot of us fall into selfishness before selflessness, and the uncomfortable truth that an average man strips a woman naked the very instant he sees her. He breaks down why at the onset, everyone is inside that thing for their selfish reasons, why love is not sustained by feelings but by wisdom, and the controversial statement that there is no right person, only a person who best fits who you are. He also reveals what a man should look for in a woman and what a woman should look for in a man: a man should go for a helper, a woman should go for a leader. And that's how they stay together. This isn't just relationship advice. It's a masterclass in understanding the difference between lust and love, selfishness and selflessness, and why most people fail before they even start. Dr. Daniels dives into why a helper is a woman who has gotten mastery over herself before attempting to help a man, why a leader is a man who has a sense of mastery over his purpose and is chasing it regardless of the helper, and why submission is not weakness but a woman bringing her power to the feet of the man so he can lead her in the original plan he has for both of them. He also tackles why women are so powerful they are a force that needs structure, why most women think they can help a man when they've not helped themselves, and the one question every person needs to ask before they walk down the aisle: have I evolved into a maximally productive being? If you're single, dating, or preparing for marriage, this conversation will give you the clarity, the language, and the courage to stop chasing feelings and start building foundations.

You don't love who you want to marry. You love who you are married to. In this provocative, deeply insightful episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down for a raw conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about love, attraction, and the difference between falling for someone and committing to them for life. This episode breaks down the uncomfortable truth most people refuse to hear: you don't love the person you're dating, you're attracted to them. Love is not what brings you to the altar, it's what you build after you say I do. The conversation dives into why most proposals are based on excitement instead of homework, why you should never agree to marry someone at the peak of your attraction but rather at the pinnacle of your mastery over the person, and the shocking reality that if you commit to loving someone before marriage, you're locking yourself into managing their flaws forever whether they change or not. This isn't just relationship advice. It's a masterclass in discernment, teachability, and knowing the difference between a weakness you can empower and a character you need to flee from. The guest explains why helpers are stronger than the ones seeking help, why you should marry someone determined you'll stay even if they never change, and the one question every person needs to ask before they walk down the aisle: is this person teachable? The conversation also tackles toxic attachments, why daddy's girls and mommy's boys are red flags you cannot ignore, and why more than 80% of flamboyant proposals never turn into the marriages they promised. If you're dating, engaged, or wondering why your last relationship didn't work, this conversation will give you the clarity, the language, and the courage to stop chasing feelings and start building foundations. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎙️ ABOUT THE HOST Mr Richard Akita is a multifaceted relationship and life coach, author, entrepreneur, and corporate trainer with over 30–35 years of experience in management and personal development.

She's a young woman who wrote a book about men's wounds. And she believes men should NOT ask women for help. Here's why. In this provocative, deeply insightful episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Ophirbia Kwansa, published author, ghostwriter, and social emotional learning facilitator, for a conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about masculinity, healing, and who men should turn to when they're broken. Ophirbia just wrote For Him: The Man Becoming, a book that speaks directly into the wounds, pressures, and private struggles of men. And she's unapologetic about it. She reveals why God gave her the assignment, the moment her father set the standard for what healthy masculinity looks like, why most men are raised by enablers who tell them nothing is ever a big deal, and the shocking reality that when men ask women for help, they often get mothered, pitied, or worse, dated. She also explains why wounds give you both a scar and resilience, how men blur the lines with every woman they meet and miss out on their intelligence, and the one phrase every man needs to hear: you have the power to decide what your wounds become in your life. This isn't just about men's issues. It's a masterclass in self assessment, relearning broken narratives, and why admitting you're wrong is not weakness but strength. Ophirbia breaks down why men don't understand the impact of their presence, how the absence of a father creates a void that predators can see, and why most men are stuck in their minds because they don't know their purpose beyond provision. She also shares the controversial take that most women don't know how to speak to the leader in a man, why showing is better than telling, and the one chapter in her book that reveals why your life is not just about you. If you're a man who's been told to keep quiet, bottle it in, or man up, this conversation will give you permission to heal. If you're a woman trying to help the man in your life, this will show you exactly where you've been getting it wrong. And if you're raising a son, this is the roadmap you didn't know you needed.

She was bald, broken, and fighting for her life. He saw all of it and still asked her to marry him. In this deeply moving episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Christy Trina, breast cancer survivor, advocate, and homemaker, for a conversation that will redefine what you think you know about love, commitment, and what marriage vows really mean when tested by fire. Trina opens up about the day she was diagnosed with breast cancer at 36, the moment she called a man she barely knew because he seemed to understand what she was going through, and how she moved in with him for treatment without even knowing he was a doctor. She reveals the steroids that made her unrecognizable, the nights she couldn't sleep, the moment she looked in the mirror and asked if she'd ever come back to herself, and his response that changed everything. She also shares the painful decision to have a total hysterectomy, how she mourned her unborn children by writing them letters, and why she believes crying is a form of prayer. This isn't just a cancer survival story. It's a masterclass in vulnerability, self love, and what it means to be loved at your absolute lowest. Trina breaks down why she never wore a wig, how she learned that caregivers carry invisible scars too, and the one thing her husband asked for in their marriage that most people overlook. She also explains why she believes everything happens for a reason, how her father's words about finding someone who will cry with you suddenly made sense, and why she wouldn't change a single thing about her journey even if she could. If you're facing illness, supporting someone who is, or wondering whether love can truly survive the worst, this conversation will give you hope, clarity, and a roadmap you won't find anywhere else.

He says wives should buy Christmas hampers for their husband's side chicks. And he means it. In this explosive, deeply controversial episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with John Michael, social worker, community advocate, and self-styled President of Enjoyment, for a conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about monogamy, marriage vows, and what African men really want. John holds nothing back. He explains why African traditions were never monogamous and how Western laws imposed population control disguised as morality, why he believes side chicks carry burdens wives refuse to, and the controversial statement that your husband can cheat AND still love you to bits. He also reveals why most women already know their husbands have someone else but turn a blind eye as long as respect remains, why sex should never be a chore or reward, and the shocking reality that when you're "too tired" for intimacy, someone else isn't. This isn't just about infidelity. It's a raw examination of polygamy, polyandry, open relationships, and whether modern marriage can survive ancient instincts. John dives into why leaving your husband for cheating is like leaving your country because it rained, the three things any man considering polygamy must have, and why enjoyment is the glue that holds everything together. If you're married, thinking about marriage, or wondering why your partner stepped out, this conversation will give you answers you didn't know you needed and perspectives you've never heard before.

She dreamed of marriage as a child. It was her escape. Years later, she walked out, rebuilt herself from the ground up, and turned her pain into power. In this raw, deeply vulnerable episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Natalie Anang, studio executive, wellness enthusiast, and Bible study facilitator, for a conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about healing after heartbreak, the energy of trauma, and what it really takes to rebuild your life when your dream falls apart. Natalie opens up about the childhood fantasy that led her into the wrong marriage, the moment she looked in the mirror and didn't recognize herself anymore, the day she received her divorce judgment and it hit harder than she expected, and how she lost memory of the trauma as her brain tried to protect her. She also reveals the three things she negotiated with God while in pain, the factory and SUV that came to pass, and why she believes divorce or trauma has an energy you can either waste in bed or channel into building the life you've always wanted. This isn't just a story about surviving divorce. It's a masterclass in making pain pay, redefining marriage from fantasy to purpose, and choosing to fix the girl before the marriage, not just the one after. If you're healing from heartbreak, rebuilding after loss, or wondering whether it's possible to dream again after everything falls apart, this conversation will give you the roadmap you didn't know you needed.

Her first salary was bigger than his after six years of work. Most men would feel threatened. But PG Sebastian made a decision that saved his marriage and built his wealth. In this raw, deeply personal episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with PG Sebastian, relationship coach, certified family counselor, published author, and corporate professional with over 2,700 clients under his belt, for a conversation that will challenge everything you think you know about provision, ego, and what it really takes to survive a long distance marriage. PG opens up about the trade-offs he had to make when his wife earned more than him from day one, the 30 days apart and 12 days together routine that tested their covenant, raising three kids alone while his wife worked miles away, and the one statement his wife made in the kitchen that changed his entire approach to marriage. This isn't theory. This is a counselor who lived what he preaches, and the results speak for themselves: two houses by age 40, a thriving family, and a marriage that gets stronger every year. If you're in a long distance relationship, struggling with ego, or wondering whether provision is really just the man's job, this conversation will give you a roadmap you won't find anywhere else.

She handed him her entire salary every single month - while his business made nothing for almost 3 YEARS. In this episode of The Unbroken Podcast, Richard Akita sits down with Cosmos Owusu Adjei (Chief Cosmos), founder of SPH Properties and one of Ghana's sharpest real estate minds. What started as a mentorship became a masterclass: Chief went nearly three years without closing a single deal, survived on what he and his wife called a "survival budget," and built a thriving property business - without losing his marriage in the process.

She knew him for over 20 years. They dated for 3. Days after he reassured her "we're fine," he hung up the phone and sent one text: I'm done. In this deeply vulnerable episode of Unbroken, psychologist and bestselling author Vachiwa Glover opens up for the first time about being discarded - and why, 18 months later, she still hasn't fully healed. This is not just a breakup story. Vachiwa breaks down the psychology most people never hear: the difference between a breakup and a "discard," why heartbreak can be genuine trauma, why you don't need to make your ex a villain to heal, and why forgiveness must start with YOU - not them. Whether you're going through heartbreak right now or supporting someone who is, this conversation will change how you understand healing, closure, and your own mind.

Is love enough to build a lasting relationship? In this episode of The Unbroken Podcast, Richard Akita sits down with entrepreneur, writer, and One Man Thousand curator Kodzo N Doamekpor for a raw, faith-driven conversation that challenges everything you think you know about soulmates, love, and marriage. Kodzo makes a bold claim: your soulmate is NOT a person — it's an ideal. From the "anima-animus complex" to the real meaning of the biblical "helpmeet," from submission and headship to his controversial relationship "hack," this conversation goes places most relationship talks never dare to. They get into why love alone won't save a marriage, what it really means for a man to lead a home, his journey from pornography to celibacy, and why singleness is a gift — not a waiting room. Whether you're single, dating, or married, this one will make you rethink how you approach love, purpose, and partnership.

He's Going To CHEAT — And It's NOT Wrong" | The Enjoyment President What happens when the man who gets PAID to party sits down to talk about love, marriage, and the hard truths nobody wants to admit? In this episode of The Unbroken Podcast, Richard Akita sits down with John Michael — social worker, development consultant, and self-styled "Enjoyment President" — for one of the most honest conversations on relationships we've ever recorded. We get into the controversial truth about long-distance relationships and why he believes a partner left alone for 9 months "will find someone." We unpack why your dream partner becomes a real (and very human) person after the wedding, the social media lie that quietly ends relationships, and the father's role that decides how his daughters will be loved for the rest of their lives.

Is provision really the man's job? In this episode, a Ghanaian chief reveals why 7 out of 10 men come back broke - and why women handle money better. On this episode of The Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Nene Tetteh, a chief and a real estate developer, for a brutally honest conversation about money, marriage, and the pressure placed on men to provide. From his unique position as a community leader who hands out money to struggling families almost every day, Nene shares what he's actually witnessed about how men and women handle finances — and the numbers are uncomfortable. They unpack whether "a husband must provide" still holds in the 21st century, the controversial "her money is her money, his money is for the home" mindset, and why so many men tie their entire identity to being the breadwinner. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎙️ ABOUT THE HOST Mr Richard Akita is a multifaceted relationship and life coach, author, entrepreneur, and corporate trainer with over 30–35 years of experience in management and personal development.

In this powerful episode of unbroken podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Rami Baitie - corporate trainer, veteran radio personality, lifelong DJ, and a man who has been married to the same woman for 30 years. Rami opens up about the truth nobody tells young couples: that lasting marriage isn't about chemistry - it's about intentionality, grace, and the daily decision to live with your partner, not alongside them. From being a painfully shy stammerer who couldn't even say his own name… to becoming one of Ghana's most recognised radio voices… to being chased and proposed to by the woman who would become his wife - Rami's story is unfiltered, vulnerable, and brutally honest.

In this raw episode of Unbroken Podcast, host Richard Akita sits down with Kofi Boateng - a lawyer, ordained minister, and 23-years-married husband — who dismantles the dangerous fairytale that love alone can sustain a marriage, revealing the brutal moment when "I do" stops being romantic and starts being real, the uncomfortable truth that what attracted you to your spouse is the exact same thing that will eventually distract you, the shocking reality that in many Ghanaian and African homes spouses are hiding financial assets from each other because "she'll make too many demands," and the painful epidemic of women filing for divorce not because their husbands cheat or beat them — but because he simply doesn't have enough money, even when he comes home every night, works hard, never lies, and is by every other measure "the best husband you could ever have."
