AnChi talks about her journey to stardom
AnChi’s journey as a content creator has been nothing short of inspiring. From humble beginnings to becoming the Creator of the Year, she has proven that hard work, determination, and passion can take anyone far.
According to her, she went through several trial and error processes but rather than give up, she chose to build a dedicated audience during those challenging times.
Today, she is a proud award winner and her success is undeniably a proof of the power of staying true to oneself.
She said:
“My journey began with humble experiments, trying different content styles and formats, learning through trial and error, and gradually building a dedicated audience.

Overcoming Challenges as a creator
Like any successful creator, AnChi has faced her fair share of challenges, especially during the start of her career journey.
From finding her niche to balancing her work and personal life smoothly, she has had to navigate numerous obstacles.
However, she never let self-doubt or fear hold her back, and her determination paid off in the end, leaving her with a smile on her face.
In her words:
“I encountered my fair share of challenges. It all started with deciding on the type of content I wanted to create and predicting how people would react. When I first began, there weren’t many voices discussing movies or shows, making it a niche and still growing community in Nigeria and Africa.
“This led to a lot of trial and error as I experimented to see what worked best. Along the way, I faced moments of self-doubt and struggled to carve out my unique voice onan increasingly crowded platform.
“Additionally, balancing my work and personal life, while getting brand deals, collaborations, and gigs, proved to be a significant challenge.”
Words of wisdom for aspiring creators
As AnChi looked back on her journey, she had some valuable advice for budding creators who also desire to become a force to reckon with.
She emphasised the importance of staying authentic, being patient, and never stopping learning.
In her words:
“For all the budding creators out there: stay authentic, be patient, and never stop learning. Embrace your individuality and don’t be afraid to experiment even failure is a stepping stone to success. Remember, every setback is just preparing you for an even greater comeback. Keep pushing forward and trust in your creative journey.”
