What does it mean to truly come home? In this episode of Rethinking Freedom, we sit down with Nannette Atuahene — the first in her lineage to be born and raised in the United States — who made a permanent move from California to Ghana in 2022, returning to the homeland of her parents.As we mark this 250-year moment for African Americans, we explore freedom not just as a legal status, but as reconnection — to land, to lineage, to self. Nannette shares her journey across the ocean, what “returning” really means, and how her coaching work helps African Diasporan professionals live life by design rather than by default — expanding their mindset, skill set, and relationships beyond the West and onto the African continent.We also break down the numbers behind the growing wave of African Americans relocating to Ghana and beyond, and what's really driving the movement.TOPICS COVERED●Freedom as reconnection — reclaiming what was severed by the Middle Passage●The journey from California to Ghana, and what “returning” means●The data behind the Blaxit movement●Life by design: mindset, skill set, and relationships●Practical pathways for the diaspora — citizenship, land, business, and cultural ties●A call to action — one tangible step toward reconnectionABOUT NANNETTE ATUAHENENannette Atuahene is the first in her lineage to be born and raised in the U.S. In 2022, she made a permanent move from California to Ghana — the homeland of her parents.
