"✨ You stop waiting for permission.
"✨ You stop dimming your own light.
"✨ You are a WINNER.
"✨ You are POWERFUL.
"✨ You are HIGHLY FAVORED.
"✨ You are BLESSED.
"✨ You walk in PURPOSE.
"✨ Your FAITH turns pain into POWER.
"…because you are backed by the strongest FORCE of all!
"So wherever you are today, feel free to sing like Paul & Silas…. Because NO ONE can sing your song louder than you!

Who is Anita Erskine?
The daughter of the late General E.A. Erskine, a former Ghanaian soldier and politician, Anita was born on December 3, 1978, in Jerusalem, Israel.
After completing her basic and secondary education at Christ the King and Ghana International School in Accra, she proceeded to Canada to study for a Bachelor's degree in Cultural Studies at Trent University. She later bagged a Master's degree in Communications Management from McMaster University.
She began her TV career in 1998 by hosting the Bold and Beautiful Omnibus Talk Show on Metro TV. She has not looked back since that time and has risen in the media and communications space. She has worked for Viasat 1, Starr FM, and MNET as a broadcaster. She has also emceed/hosted many high-profile events, including Qatar Africa Business Forum 2024, GUBA Awards 2024, Black Star Awards, GITEX GLOBAL Fintech Surge, and AfCFTA’s Biashara Afrika.
Apart from her work as a broadcaster and communications professional, Anita Erskine has had stints as an actress, including an appearance in Yvonne Nelson's Single & Married.
Despite her relatively impressive performance in the movie, she told The Spectator in an interview that she did not see herself an actress because she did not have enough commitment to it.
“I will leave that to the professionals because, as serious as I see acting, you need people who will commit all their time and attention to it.
"Write it boldly, I’m not an actress and will never be, and I’m not a dancer, but I’m a communicator, a writer, poet, and singing is one thing that I will sooner or later add to my repertoire,” she reportedly said.

YEN.com.gh exclusively spoke with mental health expert Counsellor Syeram Avotri to share his expert opinion on how public attention on a media figure’s weight loss impacts their mental health and self-image.
"Public attention on a media figure’s weight loss can have both empowering and challenging effects on their mental health and self-image. In a body-conscious society like Ghana, where appearance often influences public perception and professional opportunities, such transformations tend to attract heightened scrutiny. Positive feedback may boost confidence and affirm personal goals, but excessive commentary, whether praise or criticism, can place undue pressure on the individual to maintain or justify their new look," he said.
