    Never underestimate the lessons learnt from a “failed” experience. You learn a lot more then you ever would with “success”.

    Maureen is an incredible woman - admired her since the day we did a story on her and her chamaa for CNN. Then going to Amadiva and being awed and excited that she was the owner. I know the future is bright for Maureen, She will do even more incredible things - I have no doubt about that !

    Thank you. I came to America a young twenty two years old armed with a whatever degree or certificate from KIMC. I was here to get a BA confident I would go back home. I had no doubt and my parents paid for the first year. Wacha maish ianze!! Lord! It got horrific. I seriously even thought about how to walk back to Kenya and surprise my parents. Totally given up. With now to go. When it rains it pours.. I got a DUI right at my gate and taken to jail. I don't even know what jail looks like.. You say you are a citizen of another country., you get a flight home So I said I was Kenyan whew expecting to go home. I was only worried about my poor unsuspecting parents coming to pick me up in jail uniform. Not the homecoming party anyone expected. No one came for me. I learned to accept my situation and just read to kill time. Things kept getting stranger. I got a job in the jail kitchen. Hiii! Am I dreaming?True story. We underestimate God and the message he is sending. If you truly are tr and things still fail. Listen. It's God saying this is not for you. God isn't ignoring you. He is there waiting for you to come to your senses and listen.

    Maureen, this is so deeply profound, sincere and heartfelt. You’ve blazed the path for so many people, and I have no doubt whatsoever that you shall be duly rewarded more than you ever dreamed. Take in this breath of fresh air, this new lease of life, knowing full well that what lies ahead is greater than what ever was. So so proud of you!! 💛💛💛
