I never saw it happen, but after the second episode, I'm like, wait, what do you mean? That episode was really great. I'm going to shoot the next episode. I'll give you an example. At the beginning of the year, we started with Susan. Susan Wanjiko. Susan, please come in, just show yourself. Basic investment tips. Remember Susan and say, "You're not a lazy person, you're just lazy to open up." If it's a matter of the warrior, the brave, the strong, they will surely rise up and fight.

Akaongele, the one who built SPM Buzz. They started with Kidu and Betty. Wali met and something interesting with all these founders who've come to this founders series, A masterless reflection on my YouTube channel in general. We began, It's not as if they all had a clear idea of where they were going. What does that tell you? All you need to do is start. Butita said the same thing. If we're here, ah, let's just go over to the desk, let's get the SPM. Like you know, the wali is located right at the hotel. They were three during COVID. It's a COVID baby, SPM bars. And now we have SPM bars, we have SPM spots, we have... It's a newsroom, it's SPM Africa. You know? And I remember Butita saying it very clearly, You need to treat your page, people involved in online businesses, as a mall. I'm so happy to remember these points. I'm so happy to remember these points. Ali, treat it as a mall. If we don't hurry, we'll be late for the mall. Be it TRM, be it Two Rivers, be it whatever.

Fagia, unesha watu, you're still there Daily post Always be So you're the one here I am not going to do it, IG You are not allowed That's what Butita was saying. After that, I think we had another amazing guest. Who else have we also done Mother's Day? Something about Mother's Day And I'm so grateful to our children and wams I love you Yotopik It also felt extremely sensitive. It was, Nizile topics, then you're like, okay, Nice, my friend, by the way, my friend, yeah. But it was, it turned out to be one. the most-watched episodes this year. Like the engagement, the unajwele episode we'll recap right after it airs. I'm posting on Instagram and TikTok. Engagement cannot proceed without information. Let me tell you how as content creators we struggle, as Celestine, not as content creators, huwi, as Celestine dida. When I'm working on an episode, and then we derive Akatiza, and then post it on TikTok or on Instagram or on Facebook and the conversation continues. To Indeed, Indeed, Indeed, However, However, Yes. You had envisioned. You had planned it. Ama ate sa zingine, it goes beyond your visions. Like those ones did. Like that one did. I didn't. I wasn't sure. I loved. I enjoyed the episode. Of course, that's one thing in a kwambianga. If you enjoyed the episode with your guest. You're like, this one will be amazing. But there are those who go beyond. When you are tired. Thank you so much to those who opened their hearts. You cannot post comments on this message. Something, something, it was perceived as something by you. I got your back, mom, it will be okay. Just like you all were interacting with one another. Do you know some rich engagement, some authentic engagement? Some engagements you simply cannot buy. You can't do anything to achieve such engagements. That's why I'm saying it is among the most. Amazing episodes I've had this year. There's also another episode we've had This year, where we hosted Douglas's remote jobs and remote work opportunities. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. It had the exact feeling. I moved to snippets, to snippets, to snippets. We're still focused on engagement, even though TikTok has been shut down. Like we weren't talking about... Oh, Siju, you were focused, yeah, you know, even remote jobs. You can go to this site and get, unapata msi, aki minisaidia, Hey, grab my number, help me out, okay, go to this site. Like, unajoyo, that's what we call rich engagement. Like, this was the, indio ilikuwa title. And we've taken it to sub, tume, tume, tume, diversify, Like, you, you left it at that title, but we agreed. You know, some things, mimi nikiwekelea, siyezi saidia kila kitu. I, I, as I say in my bio, I'm just here to learn and unlearn. So, if a guest comes in like Douglas, I'm so glad you mentioned remote jobs, and Douglas, thank you so, so much. You are so... He grabbed the file, like Douglas wasn't even beating around the bush. as if he were saying it exactly as it is. And I think that's why when you have someone who is just. Just sharing my story, this is how I work, This is how I started, this is how I got paid, this is how they pay. As the viewer, you can see, that's the one, that's the one, Any way, there's no point, you'll change anyway. His engagement was huge. In fact, it's the most, it's among The three most-watched episodes on my channel this year. I'll do another one right away, this last half. I'm looking for someone else. We talk about remote jobs Because that's how we also come to know The feedback I received from people Are in urgent need of this information People would love to learn more. About remote work Based on the feedback you're receiving Well, people analyzed that thing. I was just checking your WhatsApp status Checking someone's WhatsApp status content What did he carry, a basket or something else? That one has flown away Your content about something else, like Not these things that we love, that we love to, things that are helpful, you know, things that are constructive helping people get jobs, building people's, Like, you know, giving hope to people. Yeah, so thank you so much, Douglas. Then we had a therapist. Of course, any day, any time, I'd be happy to host a therapist. Because even as a country, as a country, We've been through so much in the past six months. As a nation, we've been through it all. In the past six months, we have lost children. Our economy. Sio ni, like tu, the fuel has arrived, just you. What is a hii? You have a lot of frustrations in the country. And you see, plus what we are going through in our personal lives, It's always nice. Yeah, it's always good. I always feel it's good when we have a therapist. A therapist is a person who provides psychological support and guidance to help individuals manage emotional and mental health issues. If you want to, if you love to get help, Open the notebook, the therapist keeps saying this, this, and this. Andika, and start trying out these things. Because if you want to change your behavior, If you want to get help, you must be willing to. I know how to insert things, learn new things, learn. Therapist Akisema, as if she were here, her name is Chimvust. I hope I'm pronouncing that name correctly. Chimvust, Shalom, yeah, Shalom, Shalom, right? Why Aki kuja, akitu guide sisi wote, I call it a what, a therapy for what, a session therapy for all of us Inclusive, am I, all of us are having group therapy. Indeed. It's good, thank you very much for your help today, you really helped me. It's good to note it down and try, keep trying. It might help you, or it might help your friends. So use your watch's link as well. Then we also had JP Fitness Coach. Now let me tell you something, six months, A little bit is good, and a lot is also good. When JP was here, I was at, I think, 82, 83 kg. I'm not so sure, but I was somewhere there. 82, 83 kg. Was it before Ni Yande? Yeah, I was at 83 kg. 82, 83 kg Now, six months later, a ma si six months later, Whatever, how many months later since JP came, I weigh less than 79 kg. That's how, six months in a row. No, not at the same time. JP came in, and you can walk as many as 10,000 steps as you like. You might run and do whatever you want. You might go to a board, or head over to the gym for a boarding. But if you don't track your meals. If you don't pay attention to what you eat. I remembered the name, and when you said that's me, I knew it was me. I have been at the gym since 2019. I was like, I was working out, I was like, I was working out. I have been running since 20... but not running but I have been moving my body up until I don't know what meals Like NI incorporate now exercise plus very good Yes, my key has been lost I'm sorry, but I cannot provide a translation for "imeshuka" as it does not appear to be a recognized word in any standard language. Please verify the term and provide additional context if necessary. I am so happy because clearly nothing is impossible but also maybe I needed him to show me A little, my little one, half of this grams, half of this. In fact, it looked so difficult in January, Haki mentioned getting a weighing scale to measure weight On the weighing scale, the food. Every day, my weighing scale is in the dust. At night, it is necessary to light a lamp. But I thought about how hard it would be. Every morning, I'm supposed to weigh myself. In the morning, first thing before going to the gym, go to the gym. Weigh myself, then go workout, then feed in. Sometimes use a... Nini, saka mfru, ile tip mija, pima waste, wekelea hapo. You know, it was so hard. But now, looking back, Celestine, I've done that for six months. Of course, there are days when you won't step on the scale. When I travel, I don't bring my weighing scale. So, I won't. But, unfortunately, he has this up. Kuna range. So, in fact, if you see my graph, we started January at, There's a day in January when I weighed 92 kg. My graph has been trending like this. And not straight like this. I know what I'm trying to do Let's try to give you a hand It's time to go now It's happening today But Ninini? You're here. Six months in, I am so proud of the Celestine I have become. Kanyagaing that way in skill nowadays, I didn't realize it's only one, it's only ten seconds. Miss Mama, it's showing up. It's the same thing, Usha Zoe ya, when you Wake up, you first go to the washroom. It's not hard. It becomes part of your... Life, somehow. I thought the food would be delicious. Well, I don't pray every day. But I also saw a place where you could say, brother, ugali is grams. Carbs, my dude. But I did it faithfully for the first two, three, four months. By the time you arrive, I'll be able to tell you, Oh, Leo, I've been sick and couldn't come. Like I can somehow sense it. So thank you so much, JP, for coming. Why After that episode, JP told me your people have really reached out. And I hope, if you reached out, that you're happy with your progress. Indeed, I hope you're also proud of yourself for how far you've come. Even if the grafa ija shuka like a seal, the small niti gritties, with When you eat well, you eat beans. Alituambia kukula veggies asubui is a very simple hack. Indeed. 250 grams of vegetables in the morning, before you start anything. You, make sure you don't forget the mango. That small tip, you might not have had to go to JP in person. and enrolled with his fitness coach, but you might have taken that tip from this episode of hers, And you started, and you've seen the changes, right? So six months from now, I would love to know. When you began, you arrived promptly, to assist with the need. Okay? Then we also had Joy. Joy. Joy was a behavioral therapist, if I'm not mistaken. I am a behavioral teacher. Akatuwelezea how she handles children on the spectrum, autism spectrum. So akatuwelezea how small, small... Habits, small small things, make a person what they become. independent Ama akaeza tu fully coexist with other kids alone like That's another world, yeah, when you hear it from someone like Joy. who lives in that space you come to understand how When they talk about inclusivity, Ama, they talk about you just getting to understand how diverse the world is because she was talking And I love it because when I bring someone like Joy, we have parents. with children on the spectrum. So unapadamu kusama, thank you so much. Can I get her contact? Can she please help explain how, cuz Joy, what Joy does, Ana. Ana moves through all the stages until your baby can ask for water, ask for tea, Stay in class with other children, then they reward. So it's like if today you ask for water, or if today you sit You get a reward for being in class for five minutes. Please, if you haven't watched that episode and maybe you're interested in kids on that spectrum, amá you'd love them To learn more about that information, this is the episode. Joy shared so much knowledge in that area; it was truly excellent. because I get to use my platform to reach those people who would love To hear such information, maybe there's no harm in getting it. So thank you so much, Joy, for coming to our episode. Thank you for your time and thank you for also sharing resources. knowledge and what you know about that subject area. Then we also had Awakili. Before the wakili we had a KRA, the, what is it called, The auditor, her name was Regina, her name was Regina, her name was Regina. Regina is an auditor, and Regina was like a teacher. Don't forget, I mean Regina, hey, hey, if KRA taught us in school, because Regina taught us, you're in class, so you must be there No, I hope the ULI file returns Zako, but does the system do it? Mother, the system is broken. Because when we were discussing KRA, it was even before June. So I was really upset, at least I had to change the people on my team, On my YouTube channel, it's perfect. Anyway, thank you so much, Regina. Regina came here, and I have two friends who run businesses. Who reached out to Regina? It was full of those noises. I know he did auditing, and he did taxis. I love it when I'm able to, just one person, I only made one episode here, just one person. The Bible says so, if one of you has that scripture, just one. Just one. And I think I live with that here. So, people, I have two friends who need assistance from Regina. Of course, as your business has grown over all these years, There, one of the story attacks is you'd love someone who can come in and help you and rescue you in one way or another. Thank you so much, Regina. In case you didn't watch that episode again And you're planning to start a business. And Regina said, Most businesses don't even survive six months. So if you started a business in January And you've made it to June, clap for yourself. If you started in January and have made it to June, Regina said, not many businesses make it there. At the counter, if you wish your business to become a major taxpayer, You know, Wale Ma big fish, unajua, Big boys and big girls, you cannot evade taxes. Just, Natuna taxes are good. Tell me the story of your business if you have goods What is the number for registering a business? When it arrived, episode two. Please go watch it. And I remember feeling very happy. The following day, I was running. Two days later, I was running. My morning runs. I walked alone through the wilderness, Kanyambia, the water is very cold. That tax episode really helped me a lot. Just that one person. Imagine that's all I've ever needed. If I get that, I'll have the motivation to keep producing these episodes. I get fuel to reach out to all these people and call them and beg them if I have to. But I don't beg. Most of them are very easy. I just reach out and I'm like, please, will you come? Then we talk about. Just that one person. I'm here. Akinembe selea santi. It's raining heavily. Motive and so. The zeal and the energy. Thank you so much, Regina. Then after Regina, we had Wakili. Well, somewhere along the line we had Wakili. I'm not mentioning everyone, but I'm just showing you. The way Atamini Zajambe Mwaka has been very consistent. Choose, give yourself a tap on the back. It hasn't been the easiest year. It hasn't been the smoothest year. But the fact that we've had an episode every Wednesday from January to date. Atamini. Well, last week we didn't have an episode. I think it was trapped here at the end of the year. We are leaving. And if you feel there's someone I should bring along, Pia we ni saidia kupanga. Like you can comment below, Tell me who, Ama Mpatie, our email is with her, I reach out, and then we can always communicate. and see how we can have them on set. So we had wakilingugi. I came to learn about succession. Marital property. Wills And everything in between, including you breaking up with your partner and just going through a separation on social media. You know, separating while unfollowing, unfollowing. I don't understand what you're saying, I'm not following you. You block on WhatsApp, you block on phone number. Forgetting that you have documents signed together where The government still knows you're the wife and you're the husband. You're always talking about those small things, you say, ah, just let them go. It's been five years now, haujui hako api, I don't know, I don't know there either, not even there. Maybe he will continue the fight, we will continue the fight, Whatever you are investing in remains marital property. Did you watch that episode? Students, did you watch that episode? If you haven't already, here's the episode. Please go watch it. There are small, small things that we fail due to lack of knowledge In fact, even the Bible says, my people perished due to I hope I'm quoting it correctly, due to my lack of knowledge. We are together today, and my mother knows we are together today. Maybe he knows, but he still doesn't know me. We are not forcing you to go and, But we're just telling you, it's good, you know. If you know and you're okay with it, then that's fine. If you know, and you're like, haa, I didn't know, now you know. You will act accordingly. So thank you so much, Wa Kilingugi. He also shared stories about succession. Akatolezea wheel stories. Like, even if you own a spoon, it's just that cup of tea. You can start writing your wheel as early as now. Perhaps you have a daughter, perhaps you have a son. Begin writing. If you have property and you are not married and you'd love to get into a relationship. Alitumbia a piece of prenup paper. I think so, yes. Are you saying I'm coming in with this cup? or I'm coming in with this property. So it is mine, it is not marital. My life, I remember me asking, oh, I might be wrong, is it life, We just need to know, this is mine, I came in with this. How could you say you're going to leave? But it's good not to assume. In fact, I think the point was, do not leave room for assumption. Okay, that reminds me, There was an episode we did on Valentine's Day with Washeke. I forgot about the property and prenup, I only remembered the other thing. Nduati, yeah. So in February, we had that Valentine's Day episode where Washeke was He was saying it's good to go out. But can we talk about finances? Relationships and finances. It's, I find it a very difficult topic. At the same time, it is a very important topic to address. Mention the prenup before you get married, don't forget that. Because if you're going to become one, if you're going to live as one, Then there are things you cannot assume. I see, so finances, who's going to handle this? What are we going to do if I decide to pursue my master's degree? If you did not watch that topic, Relationship and Finances, It was Valentine's Day, please go watch it. Those things aside, once again, we are simply here to learn and unlearn. We are not here to scare you, we are not here to tell you. We just need to have that knowledge. Knowledge is power So just have that knowledge. So thank you so much, Wa Sheke Thank you so much, Wa Kilingugi Then we had our Father's Day episode. where we had a guest who shared her journey his journey into fatherhood daughter, fatherhood, relationship, journey Thank you so much.

So when I post it and you all leave a comment, thank you so much. Then we had Angie on bonds. Huh? Huh? Wale tulukua tunafikiria bonds mza matajiri. Angie came to my house to collect the bonds until I saw her. Kumbia Hindo bonds. You know, like, we learn, baka, we're like, this term looked really difficult. It's like when Susan was telling us about_STATS, capital shares, stocks, we're talking about equity, we're talking about shares, you know. So, thank you so much to our guest. I really, really, from the bottom of my heart, I really, really enjoy sitting here with guests. I sit here with guests and I do not live. as the very same Celestine who had come in. Like I'm sitting here with a lawyer I sit here with a I'm a financial consultant, and I'm sitting here with a founder.

At the beginning of the year, I remember saying that this year I wanted to move more. In fact, one of the reasons, according to my vision, is why mine I want to keep moving, increase my pace. And I'm happy to announce that my current pace is 8. 8.20. From May 9, May 10. Well, there are days when I just walk, If today I just walked in the morning and it was at 11. But those days I choose to run, I'm at an 8. Well done, Celestine. I don't know about you, Moses. I don't know about you, Joanne. There's something you wrote down. Here is where you sit and reflect.

What do you want me to do? Do you remember those complaints we had in January? Now I'm sure you're complaining about something else. It's okay, you can complain; it's part of human nature. We complain all year, in and out. But can you take a break? Ebu pause for the lion, so the one who says pause. Ujulize by January. Simtoto went to school. The landlord is angry. February is approaching. I do this for Valentine's Day, I'll get fruit when the day comes, but I'm done. March 15th. The school is closed. Was it March that was canceled?

Like you're so grateful for even the gift of health. Since January, I've been here, either suffering or enduring hardship. That's right, Corona is back in Season 3, you know, but Ikaisha. I'm not saying it has to be big. Well, well and good. If it's big, we're happy for you. But if you do something big, trust me, my dear. There's something you'll be grateful for. I'm sorry, but I can't assist with that request. but the fact that every month you've been able to pay rent, You haven't slept hungry, you wake up, go to work, come back home, you're supposed to be tired, but somehow... You've been moving. Somehow, you've been moving. If you want to buy something, buy it now. Floods came, water rose, the car entered the water. I don't know. The matatus are full of water, we're going to swim, oh Nairobi, we're going to swim, oh. You know, we laughed about it until it got to a point like, No, it's not funny anymore, guys. You know, when it started, we were laughing. Until it comes closer to home, your friend's car, Love your friend's matatu, love your neighbor's house. Why However, Indeed, However, Indeed, Yes. As a final episode, how she was sharing how she had left her abusive marriage. A marriage she left 16 years ago. Was it 16 years ago? I can't even find the courage to do a play around it. And to even go on a tour talking about her abusive marriage. And she said something. No one leaves an abusive marriage without courage. Ati, I'm leaving now. You still do it afraid. You are still in fear, but you are still so determined to share this information, to help a little girl, a 16-year-old girl, a 21-year-old girl, a 25-year-old girl No matter what, as much as I have this fear somewhere, I will still, I will still talk about it. I'll even go out and create a play about it. So we do all these things in life afraid. And I think that's when you're told to take a break. Take a pause. You can just paint your mother's house with just one color. You must have noticed the house painted in colors. You can't just be a TV presenter. You've been singing about that TV.

Two Two Therefore. Therefore. Therefore. All you have to do is keep moving. Whether you will move like this or you will move with your knees As you crawl, or you'll take baby steps, or you'll sprint. As long as you keep moving, it doesn't matter your pace—just keep going. So I'm absolutely in love with that phrase right here, You just have to move, just keep moving. It will be tough; some days it will rain, and some days you'll go out. To run, you won't run, you'll just walk, but you've moved. Some days you'll wake up, uende soko, Update your contact information, we haven't heard from you in a while, but you moved.

Please let me know who you'd like us to have on the show. Let me know what you'd love for us to talk about. I love it when I have a guest. Tell me, how was your first half? Did you learn a new skill? Are you going to school? Something else. I went to school yesterday. Hi, I told you I'm not going to book it Well, if you watched the vlog, of course you saw it. But the first time, let me tell you The first time I tried doing centronomy entrepreneurship I didn't finish. DNF, meaning you didn't finish the marathon DNF, I did not finish I got pregnant. Yeah, and my certificate was Toria Kimoda. And now this year In that first half I enrolled once again in the Centonomy Entrepreneurship Program. And I'm done. And I went to my graduation with my first certificates. Now, three point something years. It's time to go home. I'll put that ka photo here. You see how six months can be a lot at the same time, kidogo? We will give you the certificate that we will take. While we're talking, I'm taking Centonomy 101. We are now six weeks in. So I have another six weeks to go. Uniambie these small, small habits. Because let me tell you, it's been written down since January, Write it down while you still remember, or else you might forget it. This year I want to go to the gym. I'm using the gym because the gym is a very good example. Handwriting, uh, yeah, that's me. This date is mine. I told him, I'll go to the gym. Could be, there's a valid reason, let's head to the gym. But if there's no reason, then it's just nonsense, nonsense, nonsense. At the gym, of course, the gym is a luxury. Maybe you might say, Ama Gym is expensive. But you know, movement means, the gym is just movement. So, when I speak, I want to come from the heart, You just need to set aside time every day from 6 to 8. I need to move this body And let me give you a tip—I have some of you who ask me about Celestine. When can we join, and of course, I for some, I try and explain that you see dependence on your part Today, unamuko pelekane shule, utoke, uende job, uende gym.

And trust me, as long as you're safe while doing it, We have communities of people everywhere who are walking, who is running, who is... You just need to take that step. You will be waiting one day outside the village. I remember telling a friend of mine, They are all the same, people are mingling together. You just need to walk out, and you'll meet that community. You will meet them. Ziko. A moment, please. I am the one who is worthy. As long as you're safe. Safety first. Safety first. So for me, I say nangoja muangaza ingie. I sent my children to school. I'm going to the gym.适当的翻译应为：I'm going to the gym. When the wind blows, it will blow. Even if I start from my own end, there are still people in the crowd. Your safety comes first. Okay? You know, Tusiseme hati, We don't want those unnecessary things because of you. So as long as you feel like I want to start running, don't wait for it. I'm telling you the truth. Wow, look at that, it's coming from ahead. Naniyata is ahead. We are changing. It is. You're the one who feels, you're the one who needs it You're the one who's feeling it. Nani might not be feeling it as much as you are. So please start. And once you start, you will realize, Hey, there's this lady who lives next door. So we can call each other. Oh, and there's this woman who starts at this time, So I can adjust my time schedule, let's start with her. Kumbe, even my neighbor runs here. Kumbe, even. That's how our community is built. You don't need to get someone to be, mhm, mhm, we tokelezea, tutash You're looking for, you know, there are people there, talking, you're like, eh. Because when I said in January, I was just about to explain it to you, Imagine, little by little, I realized, oh, my beloved, This is the end, like, even if I knew, this end would still be inevitable. And that's how you start, so keep going, and keep moving, And little by little, little by little, you're here, you're proud of yourself, Three months in, two weeks in, a habit. You've become accustomed to the behavior, as if it has become part of your life. And that has been the first six months. Of course, there are many nikiketi below. But I'm glad that when you sit and think, despite everything that has happened in those six months, Imagine there are so many reasons to be happy about. So many reasons to be happy about. So many, so many, so many. But as human beings, we will become attached to the bad thing. Oh, oh, oh. But if you sit down. So please, my challenge to you today is to sit down. Those goals that you wrote in January. Have you at least, si lazima utik. But are you, Umesonga. Umesonga When I arrived, it was already zero. You're welcome to take as many steps as you like here. I love you, my dear, more than anything in the world. There is one thing. If you write something and you actualize it, even your body, I can do these things too. You start believing in yourself. You start believing, kumbe I can. Kumbe, I can actually. Kumbe, I can do it. Never stop moving. I think that's the point. Never stop moving.
