Talk No Dey Cook Rice Podcast
When we were younger, we all said we would be pilots, astronauts, and "big people" when we grow up. Here we are, "in the future," and we can clearly see how it is almost impossible to achieve those big dreams.
What happened? Did we just sit aloof, expecting life to turn out great?
This is a leadership podcast where we document honest, in-depth conversations with young Ghanaians shaping culture, business, governance, and industry.
At a time when many believe success only exists outside the country, we are intentional about telling powerful local stories. That's why every episode goes beyond surface-level conversations to uncover the mindset, decisions, and real-life experiences of these great guests.
The Podcast is a peer mentorship program. Simply getting young people who are doing exceptionally well for themselves to mentor other young people who want to do big things,
If you’re looking to grow, think differently, and build something that matters, you’re in the right place.

Talk No Dey Cook Rice Podcast
AI Expert: Why Most People Will Be Left Behind - Julian Owusu
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Today’s guest on Talk No Dey Cook Rice didn’t start in boardrooms or business strategy sessions.
He started in the ring. From boxing and football in South London to chasing a football career in Ghana with Eleven Wise, Julian Nana Owusu has lived multiple lives — and each one has shaped how he sees the world today.
But right now, the world is shifting. Fast. Technology is redefining value. Entrepreneurship is reshaping economies. And many people are still waiting for someone to come and save them.
So in this conversation, we sat down to unpack what’s really going on — and what you need to understand if you want to stay relevant.
Julian is the founder of BuildTheCompany, and someone deeply invested in helping people execute at a higher level. In this episode, he shares why AI is no longer optional, why visibility online is critical, and why the future will favour those who build — not those who wait.
He also gets honest about leadership. The pressure, the responsibility, and the loneliness that often comes with it.
We spoke about:
* Why waiting for government might be the biggest mistake young people are making
* How AI is quietly changing the rules of the game
* Why you can’t afford to be anonymous on the internet anymore
* What leadership really feels like behind the scenes
* Why entrepreneurship is becoming the backbone of the economy
We also spoke about his definition of success, the role his family plays in grounding him, and the quiet but powerful influence of Mensah Otabil on his life and business thinking.
These are not always comfortable conversations — but they are necessary.
Because the truth is simple: Nobody is coming to save you. The question is… are you ready to build?
