Kinda like making a commitment. "Ahh Ciku, you write one ah! Better stick to your words!" So here goes everything! My kiddos I'm blessed… Continue reading The only way is forward

That work-life balance
The Balance Is something a lot of people are gunning for. Myself included. But I'm beginning to question whether it's something for organizations to sell.
