You know that one thing you’ve been praying about for a long time?That one decision that, when it finally comes, has the power to shift your entire life? Yeah… that one. Well, the decision I was waiting for—finally came through. It’s hard to explain what it feels like when something you’ve been holding your breath for suddenly arrives. It’s a mix of relief, gratitude, exhaustion, and disbelief. You want to celebrate, cry, and sleep all at once. ( I didn’t sleep!) But what caught me off guard was not just the breakthrough itself—it was people’s reactions to it. Every person I told said something alongRead More →

I’ve been “waiting” for a decision for what feels like forever. And if you’ve ever been there—caught in that in-between space where nothing seems to move—you know how heavy that can feel. The questions. The doubt. The wondering if maybe… you missed it. If maybe something’s wrong. Maybe you’re blocked. Cursed. Forgotten. Here’s the profound truth I learnt in the wait: This isn’t a curse. It isn’t a blockage. It’s Divine Timing at work. We often mistake the space between prayer and answer for absence or indifference – a frustrating delay. But what if we reframed it? This waiting period isn’t punishment. It’s not stagnation. It’sRead More →

There’s a Swahili saying I’ve come to live by:“Tenda wema, nenda zako.”Loosely translated, it means:“Do good, and go on your way.” It sounds so simple, almost too easy to say — but in reality, living this truth is one of the deepest forms of inner freedom. Do Good Without Waiting for Applause Life has taught me this again and again: You can pour love into people, show up for them in ways big and small, and still — they might never return the gesture. Some won’t say thank you. Some will even forget. Some will act like it never happened. And yet, you did good.Read More →

When their “spiritual help” feels like a curse. We’ve all been there: You’re in a season of waiting—a visa delay, a job hunt, a health journey, an adoption process or a door to finally swing open after you’ve knocked and knocked. But in the midst of all this, there’s often another battle quietly brewing—one that feels less like spiritual warfare and more like emotional warfare:The unsolicited spiritual solutions from overzealous believers in your life. You know the ones.The cousin who sends you a YouTube sermon link every week about “unlocking your destiny.”It’s stressful enough… until Aunt Linda texts you again about the “prophetic pastor” who can “breakRead More →

It happened again. That sickening lurch in the pit of your stomach when you realise your kindness has been twisted against you. Someone I knew, someone I thought was a friend, spun me a tale of hardship. My instinct, as it always has been, was to help. I reached into my pocket, driven by empathy and a desire to ease their burden, only to discover later it was all a carefully constructed lie. They weren’t a friend in need; they were a scammer exploiting my trust. Again. This isn’t the first time. I wear my heart on my sleeve. I trust easily. I give freely. For me, generosityRead More →

There’s a kind of heartbreak many couples carry in silence — one that’s rarely talked about openly, yet weighs heavily behind closed doors. It’s the heartbreak of trying to conceive and not seeing those two pink lines month after month. If you’ve been here, you know how raw, personal, and exhausting it can be. And if you haven’t, then this post is especially for you, too. To the Couple Walking This Path: If you’re reading this and you’ve struggled to conceive, I want you to know: you are not alone. I see you. I know the weight you carry—the monthly hope followed by disappointment, theRead More →

There’s a truth I’ve come to embrace lately. A quiet but powerful reflection that’s been sitting with me in the stillness of my thoughts.. When someone speaks ill of you behind your back, it doesn’t reflect who you are. It reflects who they are. Let that sink in. We live in a world where whispers can be louder than actions, and where judgment often walks ahead of understanding. People will talk, they will form opinions without knowing your heart, your struggle or your intentions. Sometimes, the ones you trusted the most might be the loudest voices when you back is turned. But here is theRead More →

Moving to the UK from Kenya as a young adult heralded the start of a transformative chapter in my existence. The initial period was marred by homesickness so severe it took a physical toll, necessitating a journey back home to recuperate. This setback, however, was merely the prelude to a narrative of resilience, growth, and self-discovery. Embracing Change and Overcoming Challenges Upon my return to the UK, imbued with renewed vigour, I embarked on both an academic and personal voyage that would define my very being. Transitioning from the comfort of my parents’ home in Kenya to assuming independence in the UK was nothing shortRead More →
