She tells Lynn Ngugi what makes her tick is her ability to take seriously all opportunities presented to her and work hard towards becoming a better version of herself
Here is her story on today's episode of Inspire Global

Wow! 👏
Wow...so encouraging
Huk up with Lyn and give us your story
Wow! This is so inspiring. I also grew up in Maringo and ended up being a graduate architect years later! Our past doesn't determine our path. Thank you for this!
It’s amazingly inspiring, empowering, guiding, counseling, Godly and spiritual!
Lynn, this is what everyone wants to listen to. It’s refreshingly therapeutic. It makes us recollect, redefine, re-engineer our passion, refocus and refresh our vision,goals and put God first.
It’s biblical. God’s favor and grace at an appointed time, glorifies God as our creator, provider and protector. All that depend on him get blessed in all ways.
Matthew 6:31-33: “Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”
Proverbs 16:9: “In their hearts humans plan their course, but the LORD establishes their steps.”
Isaiah 58:11: “And the Lord will guide you continually and satisfy your desire in scorched places and make your bones strong; and you shall be like a watered garden, like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.”
Congratulations!! Lynn, quite good word....Sister Hellen, you really made all through the Hand of the LORD!!
Hii ndo inaitwa from grass to grace~

@@carolynegakuo1093 lts very difficult to reach her.l thought if you give me her number it will be possible for me to talk to her
Ellen has a rich voice and very articulate .. I'd listen to this a million times
This lady Hellen is so authentic. She's made me some dresses in the past and I tell you she is hands on. Doesn't lie, picks up your calls, listens to your requests and makes it happen. She is genuine and loveliest designer I know. God bless you always. Am so happy to hear her story. She's a wonderful person.
Thank gal
This is very true
Very inspiring Story. One thing which I realized from the Story is that She is an awesome employer because for employees to own the Job and work extra hours, means that they are Happy and motivated in their work. Kudos 👍 Lynne 👌
Where is her shop located
Am a kitenge lover and would like her make one for me
One day, I will tell my story to the world. Am really inspired by your story Hellen. And definitely, we start somewhere. Time and trusting the process matters most. Thank you Lynn for covering her story 😊
Amen
Hellen your amazing and your taste is something else.
Kazi ni kazi😍❤️we all start from the bottom kabla tuomoke congratulations queen

U can become what you want if u believe in urself ,chase ur dreams , don't give up and also stay focused
That's very true i agree with you 💯
Amen, Amen 🙏
It's not easy, some people have tried all it takes but they have failed
This story has really touched me...it has reminded me of a guy who took advantage of me cause of my situation (being an orphan) fell into his trap cause i was seeking refuge. I'm now a single mom of 3 struggling for my kids. I feel one time will share my story
You are strong 💪 ❤️...Your 3 kids must be very proud of you...
Ai, my Lynn and nowdays you're bringing us story mzuri mzuri tu, I think we are learning more and more about business and no giving up in life
Welcome to( SWAK)Stingy Women association of Kenya,,,Tulisema pesa zetu hatupeani na Gari zetu tunajiendesheaa😂😂😂💔
Halafu miss Lyn,, waambie having a child is not your Ultimate goal,, wakitaka wakuzalie piaa🙃🥰
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ooh yaa
🥰🥰🥰🥰
"I am nothing without God." ♥️
We are nothing without him.
AMEN AMEN!!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Acknowledging God in every step one makes is the Key. Blessed by Helen's story.. she's really motivated me.
Lynn you are doing an amazing job as always.
I have been so inspired and encouraged. I'm out of words. Thanks Lynn and Hellen
This lady is pretty like Lynn Ngugi with great inspirational story. You two women are an epitome of Kenyan true-hard-work women. We have Kenyan women who truly merit their achievements through sheer hard work. Leave alone free riders/Kula fare category, Helen, Lynn and many others need genuine accolades. I affirm you ladies.
I cant be the only one forever amazed by Lynn's humility. Great episode as always
Am so happy for Hellen at some point we hustled together,fate made us meet we used to cry a lot together and am so glad God made us meet.Congratulations Helen!
Thanks gal, my time with you is truly treasured
That house is goals!!!!! Thank you Lynn for these stories. They're showing people what's possible when you don't give up!
Ni yake ama ni ya kurent ?
@Sarah Njeri...learn to fix another womans crown..so uas will b next...trying to tear her into pieces is lik trying to put her candle off hoping uas lights brighter...renting or her own...the House is goals🔥🔥
@@cecimwangi7203 what is wrong with asking if it's rented or not ? Crown inatoka wapi hapo ?
@@sarahnjeri105 we are saying the house is goals...rental or her own...
Its none of ua business to know whether ts rental or her own...thts the problem.
@@cecimwangi7203 yes like the Subaru was goals 🤣 you are right it's goals 🤣.
Very inspirational interview on so many levels. My takeaway point: Find a gap, fill it and leave the rest to God. May your business prosper Hellen to even higher grounds.
First of all shes soo pretyy ,the house looks so beautiful, third of all lynn good job and kama kawa your looking good , this story is so inspiring
Watching from Sweden and I am so inspired. Thank you Lyn! I binge watch your content and I never had any video I didnt learn from. Bless you.
She has given me hope to continue to achieve my dream. Great interview n interviewer. Change of mindset is key. Thanks for sharing your story. Congratulations to your achievements n many more to come. God bless you.
Having just walked out of a toxic ldr, I fully relate with this lady. Manipulation from the so-called boyfriends is real. Keep soaring Hellen, pure gold must go through fire❤️
Such an encouraging story, I hope one day i can make my own CEO.
Don't hope,belief that you will,life is a just employer,it gives you whatever you ask of it.pick a definite desire and start working towards it😉
True
Such a strong woman. Above all she recognises God in everything. A prayerful woman is a beautiful woman
The most beautiful story I've ever heard 👌😘 am also still down and I know one day God will bless me with my own job...... I started with 40k per month and am looking forward to be self employed..... may Almighty God grant me the grace of Wisdom, knowledge and understanding
She made me a cute jump suit... Wish I could afford her always coz she is so professional and her work assistants have a keen eye.
Lynn u are making me to laugh too, surely everything ni gharama 😁😁😁I remember I gave my first boyfriend 36k phone and left myself without 😂😂😂today I dare not. This story is so interesting and motivating❤️❤️. Thanks Lynn 4 good job u are doing.

We have similar experiences. I heard two miscarriages, last year and this year. Am still motherless.
I remember my first salary in garissa county was 10k. My rent was 3k, had two hse mates. Each contributed 1k. The hse had no ceiling, no tiles and shared pot latrines and bathroom.
I used to save alot and now am in a better place. I already have one title deed and I hope that before end of 2022, I’ll have two titles. Am so grateful to God. And yes you have to start from somewhere. Plus i have ocd
