- THE SITDOWN UKMy name is Tope Chiedozie - I created and run a brand new LIVE Q+A event called: THE SITDOWN provides a platform for entrepreneurs,personalities and celebrities to share their story and connect with their fans in an intimate and informal space. The SITDOWN is an event that takes place every 3 months ,where I interview guests and help them to unpack their life stories. Stories that we hope will inspire and empower others around them. The event welcomes audiences from the guests core following and gives them the perfect opportunity to come from behind their screens and 'comment sections' to engage and ask the questions they've always wanted to ask. "The Sitdown slogan- Real Lives, Real Conversations - represents our desire and determination to change perceptions and bring real life issues to the forefront. We provide our guests a platform to truly speak on what it’s like behind the scenes, in an honest, yet informal setting." -Tope Chiedozie (Creator of The Sitdown) Feel free to check out the highlights here: https://youtu.be/pQCcxO08PRI You can also check out our instagram: @thesitdownuk
