The Warriors

He knows my clinic, He knows my phone number, If he wanted to lose the weight he would have done this in 2020. But he is not ready because he is not ready to stop eating the bad foods he eats. He knows if he comes to me, I will ask him to fix his diet, something he is not prepared to do. He is also looking for a psychiatrist who will prescribe him tonnes of useless antidepressants. Change or Perish. #FoodFriday

Hello Warriors, Good morning. #FoodFriday

It is a wrap! My sons of Friends School Kamusinga perfomed a scintillating stage play during the Kenya national Drama Festival. For the first time in the history of this fete, their play perfomed a record 4 times at the national level including at the state concert hosted by the President at Sagana State Lodge. Once again, the young man in a white pair of short emerged the best actor of the festival defending the trophy he won last year. The Play is titled THE PRESCRIPTION written and directed by Amerix. It has been a tough 3 months for me. The young men have learnt a lot. For me, drama is not just showbiz but a whole package of mentorship. These young men have learnt soft skills - Time management - Project management - Teamwork - Public speaking - Conflict resolution - Emotional control - Discipline These soft skills will transform their lives and be reflected in their academic perfomance. #BetterTogether
