Living and working in Lagos often feels like a constant tug-of-war between high-pressure remote jobs and the vibrant, time-consuming culture of local spots, like the barber shop, where the best networking and gist happens. As we strive for self-improvement and global productivity, do you think our unique social culture is a distraction, or is it actually a vital mental health hack for surviving the city? I'm curious if anyone has found a balance between the hustle of a viral career and the reality of staying connected to the streets.
