Let’s face it: the youth of today are no longer focused on the old promises of progress. They’re not out here fighting for better roads, cheaper housing, or an end to poverty in the traditional sense. Sure, those things matter, but they’re not enough. They’re striving for something far more powerful, good governance. A governance system where every decision is […]
MAYBE IT’S TIME
You notice it, that your presence in this world is special. The things you do and say can make a big difference in ways you might not even imagine. Think about a time you made someone laugh. That happy moment still lives in their heart, and they smile when they remember it. Maybe you once helped a friend when they […]
5 Ps
Life is a journey filled with challenges and opportunities. Whether in personal growth, career advancement, or business success, understanding the 5 Ps—Pain, Pleasure, Prepare, Process, and People—can be a game-changer. Pain is often seen as negative, but it is a powerful motivator. It pushes us to step out of our comfort zones and strive for better. Instead of avoiding pain, […]
REPLACEABLE
I was nine years old when my parents separated. My older brother, Francis, now Steve had traveled with my father to Kisumu, while my mother stayed behind in Nairobi with my younger sister, Ruth. They were supposed to join us in Kisumu for the Christmas holiday of 2004. I never understood why we did not travel as a family. Even […]
STOPPED PRAYING
He stopped praying when he opened his eyes and looked around him. He had been praying for shoes, but they had no limbs. He had been praying for more life, but they had their timers counting down with every beep of a machine. The realization hit him like a wave an eye-opening experience that shook him to his core. He […]
TOUGH ENOUGH
Over the weekend, I had an engaging session with a group of young men on toxic masculinity. The goal was simple: to redefine masculinity and strength beyond the narrow confines society has imposed on manhood. I started with an icebreaker, a story from a movie I recently watched, Lee, featuring Kate Winslet (yes, the star from Titanic). The film, set […]
DYE FOR YOUR SCENES
In a world captivated by the glamour of success, many have become spectators rather than players. The lazy generation clings to the coattails of successful people, drawn to the shine but unwilling to embrace the grind. Yet true success demands more, it requires ownership of your journey, the discipline to work for your achievements, and the courage to break free […]
DARK TWISTED FANTASY
Darkness is often feared, misunderstood, or fought against. Whether it’s a dark path, dark times, or even dark skin, society has long been conditioned to see darkness as something fierce and to be overcome an obstacle rather than a space for growth and reflection. But what if darkness isn’t an enemy to be defeated? What if it’s a passage to […]
EMPOWERMENT
Life is never without its challenges. Each of us carries experiences that are uniquely ours moments of struggle and triumph that no one else can fully understand. These personal journeys shape who we are, yet they often leave us feeling isolated, as if we’re navigating life’s trials alone. When the path ahead feels uncertain, taking the next step can seem […]
TIMING
In today’s fast-paced world, everyone seems to want instant results, just visualize something, and boom, it should be yours. But what happened to valuing timing? There’s a unique power in waiting for the right moment, when everything aligns perfectly and opportunities find you. I often call this “attraction,” the opposite of chasing. It’s about drawing things to you, rather than […]
