I grew up in a cozy maisonette with my parents, living the high life until I was 17 and they decided to pull the plug on their fairytale. They provided everything a kid could want: food, shelter, clothing, and a maid who practically did my homework. Life was grand! I was the picture of perfection […]
In 2020, during the challenges of the Covid pandemic, I found myself broken, despised, and deeply depressed.

Kudos to Safaricom for recognizing the struggle of a mother queuing with a baby! As someone who has carried my babies through endless lines, I completely relate. In fact, I was ready to give her my spot because I know how tough it can be. However, now that I’m done with the pregnancy phase and […]
