Gospel musician, Mary Ghansah has lifted the lid on parts of her ambitions while growing up saying, doing music was never part of her career since she had many other things that she wanted to do.

Mary stated that she always wanted to be on an aeroplane, to fly around the world as a an Air Hostess and when her dreams were no longer possible she thought about being a nurse. She made this known on her 61st birthday as she reflected on her career choices and paths she has taken so far in life. 

“I wanted to be air hostess because I love to fly. My parents thought I would be a doctor. Yeah, my father especially, he has so much interest in that.

“It looks like it (music) is in the family. So, one day I realised that I was being called to do what I originally didn’t want to do because if you are doing God’s work in our days is like they are poor," she revealed on Hitz FM with morning show host, Sammy Forson.

After a mammoth 40 years in the gospel music industry, Mary said she would not have had it any other way because she cannot imagine how her life would have turned out without music.
