WHAT I’VE BEEN BINGEING

Ghanaian-Australian Lillian Ahenkan (aka MTV host Flex Mami) is a DJ, MTV presenter, social media influencer, model, podcaster and CEO/founder of ReFlex The Gam. Flex, dubbed by actor Jameela Jamil as an ‘inspiration’ and the beauty icon we need right now, tells us what’s she been enjoying.

WHAT I’VE BEEN COOKING:

Of all the things I excel at, cooking just isn’t one of them.

It’s not because I don’t have the skill, I think it’s just resting dormant waiting to be unlocked.

Thanks to Instagram I was influenced to buy an airfryer which has added so much value to my life. Cooking hot chips at home whenever I want is a luxury I didn’t know I needed.

WHAT I’VE BEEN WATCHING:

I’ve been losing hours to The 100 on

Netflix.

It’s a very exciting TV series about space, utopias, dystopias and colonisation but done in a very soapy teenage-style which makes for easy watching.

WHAT I’VE BEEN READING:

If by “reading” you mean “starting, getting distracted and stopping” then I’ve been reading a lot of selfdevelopment books. Company Of One is the most recent! It’s about business, choosing to stay small rather than scaling for scaling’s sake.

WHAT I’VE BEEN LISTENING TO

I’ve been listening to my own podcast Bobo And Flex. It’s all about accessible and interesting conversations about dating, philosophy, psychology and identity. Would recommend.
