You are here because you want to grow: To think better. Live better. Be better.
You’re looking for more than a piece of content or a course.
You want a community where growth is discussed and practised.
Where people challenge ideas, think critically, and are obsessed with becoming better.
As Trevor Noah’s mother, Patricia, taught him: “You cannot be around people who are moving and not wish to move.“
The Pawns VIP Community is where you find your people. Where you grow up, level up, and step up — together.
By joining, you become part of our mission to help 1 million people grow into their best selves.

We believe anyone can evolve beyond where they started. And that belief shapes everything we do.
But…
Growth is hard when you’re doing it alone.
Distractions pile up. Habits fall off. Progress stalls.
Worse, most advice online is either surface-level, contradictory, or more about building someone’s brand than supporting your actual journey.
But it doesn’t have to be that way:
Join a private community designed to help you actually grow.
Here, you’re not just consuming content — you’re surrounded by momentum.
As a member, you get:
- Access to real conversations — through group chats, audio, and video calls.
- Curated content — blogs, podcasts, and videos in the Needlestack.
- Accountability challenges — build habits like reading and exercise.
- A platform to share your story on our blog (under your own name).
- Growth-focused courses — personal and professional development.
- 50% off all paid community publications.
- Points when you invite others in.
This isn’t just a community. It’s a system for becoming who you’re meant to be.
Join now — don’t let “later” become “never.”

Things to Know
- We support your growth across five areas: building meaning and purpose, strengthening your physical health, sharpening your mind, deepening your relationships, and developing emotional resilience.
- We’re not a religious or political group. We respect individuals while challenging ideas and beliefs—including religious and political ones. If questioning beliefs feels offensive rather than productive, this may not be your community.
- You can ask questions, share ideas, or start thoughtful discussions anytime, but you must stay respectful within the community.
- Pawns will never ask you to pay into a personal account. Only make payments through our official website (www.pawns.com.ng) or to Pawns Digital Agency‘s account.
- Writing is at the heart of our culture — journaling, group conversations, and blog posts all help us think deeply and grow clearly.
- Don’t compare yourself to others. Everyone’s growth looks different.
- Be cautious. Not everyone here will be personally known to us. Avoid sharing sensitive details or sending money to anyone claiming to represent Pawns.
- Stay active. The more you show up and participate, the more benefits you derive from being a part of the community.
