I want my Owner's Corner

As I pulled away from the numbers staring right in front of me, one thing was certain, driving was not an option.  I had contemplated this trip for almost two weeks and for the life of me I could not quite place my finger on what was silently gnawing away at me.

 Voila! my Eureka moment.

I wanted someone else to do the driving while I relaxed in the "Owner's Corner."  In Nigeria, this phrase describes the owner sitting in the back of the car while being chauffeured typically by their personal driver in their own private car. Okay, I may not have a personal driver, but I can pay to be driven and not feel guilty. My mind was made to enjoy myself.

WHY NOT? - Life No Get Duplicate. and we have a shirt for that!

Take a closer look at this shirt and read it out loud. Phonetically, it captures the Nigerian Pidgin phrase, “Life no get duplicate”.

We only have one life.

We only have one chance to make it great.

Let’s do exactly that. We want to challenge each person that wears this shirt to go out into the world and make every single moment count.

We want you to smile more, share more, love more, and we want you to remember that life is a precious gift so let’s treat every day with the reverence it deserves.

By combining three different styles of names, Dupe (Yoruba), Lee (Asian), and Kate (English), we can drive our core vision of global community universality home even more.

We are all experiencing a unique and wonderful experience both individually and together and by coming together to learn, explore, and advance we can truly appreciate the gifts around us while empowering each other.

Let’s take each day as that gift and let’s make it better for those around us.
