She says, she knew nothing about marriage and if she knew, she should have waited a little longer.
However, a beautiful blessing came from that marriage. A son she will treasure forever. Then, she reconnected with her high school sweetheart after 20 years and today, they enjoy a beautiful marriage and are raising a wonderful blended family.

Patiently waiting for my day @LynnNgugi
Lynn, I am proudly Ugandan.. here in the UAE. I enjoy yo show, this particular one, I just want to believe God is communicating to me. I hv been or still in a toxic relationship,coz I hv not been sure if this my high school classmate really means it! He just found me a through Facebook and he confesses he has been looking for me after 20years now... So I just feel this story is telling me to watch out for the same! Oh God help me! I love yo show❤❤❤❤❤
My regret as well is to get married in my 20s . I didnt know better. But I now know better and God is making things beautiful for me again.. I am starting life again in my 30s after a divorce with 3 beautiful children. My case was more of emotional, mental abuse coupled with neglect carrying the entire family's burden and reached a point of no return where I broke down completely. Still recovering but I thank God for how far He is brought me. Thank you Jesus. I know I will find love again and experience the life God has always wanted for me.
We are many,getting married in 20s is the biggest mistake a lady can do to herself. Pushing on
I don't think you made any mistakes in your 20s, my dear .Sometimes life has to take curves, and there is a reason for that. Also, blended family is not easy .Not all that glitters is gold.
I'm regretting too and I feel tired. I just turned 30. Got married(cohabitation) at 22 and I have 1 kid, a 7yrs old girl.
Haki it's sad me too l regreat l wish l knew but now l thank God penye Niko young girls listen please learn
It is well.
Difficulties in your life do not come to destroy you but to help you realise your potential and power
I wish I can understand this coz atimes it feels like God literally forgets people.its like u living in some karma.
it was a good story..never pressure anyone to marry.stop looking at us past 30 who are not married and no children like we are weird.Let God write our love stories.We also need to heal from traumas so that we avoid treating people badly
I'm glad to have walked with her since 2016. I can attest there's God who answers prayers. Thanks gal for making Jesus famous through your story. More marital bliss ❤
Hallelujah
Hello Lynn,
I've been a consistent listener of your videos, and I've noticed the recurring theme of gratitude when you say, “I do not take this for granted.” It's a powerful expression that resonates with your audience. I wanted to offer a few alternative variations that you might find useful in conveying a similar sentiment:
1. “I truly appreciate this.”
2. “I don't take this lightly.”
3. “I am grateful for this opportunity.”
4. “I value every moment.”
These variations could add a touch of diversity to your message while maintaining the essence of gratitude that you consistently convey. Keep up the fantastic work!
Best regards,
Bernard
Good. But mazoea yanatabu. Might take a little longer if any.
Good thoughts... Borrowing these too 😊
I did at 19 one daughter, but it never lasted and my baby passed away since I wasn't even capable of raising her, the year 2004, my mum passed away in January my daughter may, i never wanted anything to do with marriage again. Now am 39 getting married next weekend in Europe... ukipata the one marriage is a beautiful thing.
Congrats
Seems like no African man wanted you with your kids so you went for a mzungu who will not ask you questions 😂😂
Congratulations
No matter how many times you fall you can always bounce back and rise again
I can relate with your story madam, I also divorced at 26. A very young and innocent girl. Abused and heartbroken. Thanks for raising my hopes, I will also get my life partner may God hasten him wherever he is
It doesnt matter the age you get married at..the problem comes in when you marry the wrong person...but its never too late to start over again and rebuild yourself from scratch😊
But it gets even worst when u marry very late and still get the wrong partner.
Very true, the age doesn't matter and true that marrying a wrong person late is even worse. It gets late for you to heal and rebuild yourself....
I am a victim of that, I married at 29, it didn't work out. I had to first take care of my two children and was delayed to find love again....
At 50 now, it's when I am open for love again Imagine!!!😂😂
You’re absolutely right.
The problem is marrying wrong
@@YvonneNjeri-cb7ywyes
More painful 😢
@@YvonneNjeri-cb7ywyou can say that louder Dear.
I did a cohabiting at 19 married at 20 , divorced at 23 got married again at 25 however lasted for 14 years , I would advice younger sisters please never marry young, never seatle for abuse thinking they will change you lost yourself in such relationships. What I know today I wish I did before, No regrets Everything happens for a reason and it’s for good to those who love the lord.
So inspiring,some of us gave up on love after being disappointed by the people we trust so much,When I here stories like these ones i still believe that there is a God of a second chance
Sure gal
One day one time i find true love sai wacha nisumbuane na economy
Wish she broke down the challenges, many of us got married on our 20s, still stuck in lonely marriages but hanging on, some divinely so.....others lack of better options...l feel her story is all about another chance bur l don't hear triumph.
Maybe will share mine one day, been in 28years of am abusive marriage worsen after losing a job 2016...l am I my early 50s holding strong.....l trust God to make a beautiful story
Triumph is her getting her health back and getting someone who is mentally physically financially and emotionally supportive. She would probably have died from depression or disabled if she had stayed.
My dear run..,at 50 someone needs peace of mind
My take home is no matter how many times you've failed never give up.
Stories that take us to the next level, learning and relearning
She respects the ex husband by not exposing him.This is exactly my story ,his relatves covered him saying a family cannot be broken etc yet they know his behavior so well. Addded to it if the person is narcissistic its worse
Sure I second you
Kila mtu hutetea wa kwao😂😂😂 this is crazy I remember ooh no
Enyewe kuna mungu even one one morning I can work away in peace
I want to attest to the fact that how old you are when you get married isn't usually the problem. So please give yourself some grace.
I got married in my early 30's but it still failed. The person you get married to makes all the difference. Alcoholism complicates things even more. Thats what ended my marriage.
she means she entered it young and with no education. Being young means you are easily manipulated and naive. At 30's or above you do it knowingly and if it fails it means one was not keen on red flags
True
I tap into this lady's calmness....halleluyahh
Very true you can always bounce back . God first. Am a witness of myself, from a very abusive marriage with my 3 kids oh my Jesus to.............. God is Faithful . .
I just love her courage not giving up on love and she is happy now and fitting there.
God of 2nd chances
Hi lynn ..am soo encouraged by his beautiful lady..i have also been separated for 5 yrs now av been emotionally abused...physically abused and i alsodecided to end my abusive marriage..am now leavin happily with my four children as a single mum..
Don't worry, we are many.
On the other hand the guy remarries and lives his life after destroying our hearts and minds.
I'm really happy that she's brought up the issue of parental expectations for their children to take care of them. Please, let's not put that pressure on them. Kid's here in America are working endlessly to take care of their parents instead of focusing on education to secure their future. I remember my mom telling me and my siblings that they didn't want or expect anything from us. That took a lot of pressure off us. Eventually we all went onto successful careers and businesses and when mom got sick, we took care of her selflessly. She had money but we didn't want her to spend it on Healthcare. Please let's learn to let our kids build themselves up without too much pressure and obligation
I already love your parents. I want to be such a parent, even better. Black tax is killing some of us out here😢. But the good thing is that I am aware of the black tax and other burdens put on children's shoulders and I must end it.
@@nancymaina-qualityeducation Amen. I'm doing the same with my daughter. I've told her that her money is for her to keep. In fact, we are the ones who will leave her an inheritance
And there is siblings' expectations too, one thinks you will carry all their loads. I have learned to say no without feeling guilty. The best thing I did was to set my goals and budget before putting anyone else first. Off course healthy boundaries help too.
@@martha4577 you are very smart. When my siblings were working on projects, they would come to me for money, even though I hadn't built myself up yet. I had to eventually say no. It angered them but they finally got the point
Ain't nobody gonna say how this lady has a beautiful smile...
Yes she does ❤❤
She's absolutely gorgeous!😘
@@LynnNgugidid she tell you that she’s also a great Mwalimu and has co-authored some very important Books that are used daily. Sorry I won’t mention exactly which ones. ❤❤❤
You got a gem, Parto is such a good hearted guy. The only friend I've kept for over 20years
As long as you are not the problem in your first marriage,God will vindicate you and give you a second beautiful chance to relive your life.God is faithful.most men think that once you have two or more kids you are done and they can treat you anyhow.let me tell you emotional neglect is the worst thing that can happen to you in marriage.
True

Sooo true
I went through the same thing my sister. It brings me solace I was not alone. Emotional abuse is severer than physical abuse. I also opted out. God is still God for me and moving on with my life.
This happened to me too. I got married simply because I was pregnant with his child. I didn't realize he was an alcoholic until we moved in together 😢. It was a living hell, I didn't know how irrational, irresponsible and demeaning alcoholics can be. I carried the entire load but when I decided to leave, everyone, including his family and mine were pressuring me to stay. They were more concerned about him than me and my daughter. They assumed I would be okay since I had a good job, but they didn't take into account the suffering I had endured for 7 years. That relationship traumatized me so much, I've not dated for years and I never want to remarry.
Do not let it dampen you. find healing know yourself, go for counseling or therapy, and renew your strength. God knew you before you were born and has good plans for you.
I feel you have been there
God will see us
I understand you well. 😢😢😢
My story oh God! have mercy on me it's sickening 😢😢

Wow ,thanks Lynn for bringing this episods they do help allot ata tukiwa far from home
I almost went through the same thing in my life! Carrying all the house responsibilities because the man is crazy and didn't have dreams! I went through depression, neglect, abuse, thinking things will change for more than a decade....I wish walked out immediately I saw red flags, in their family I was blanded Mkikuyu, and bad woman, I lost everything in my life. It is a very inspiring story.
Team Lynn u inspire me everyday
I love their business concept. A good team indeed that's why they are compatible and are succeding
My classmate back in high school thanks for sharing the inspiring life journey with a bigger audience. God bless you in the new year with great achievements ❤
I love this conversation. For sure some parents think their kids are their retirement. That is too much pressure for them. Best thing is to give them a chance to want to help after establishing themselves.
She have a powerful inspiration
Very nice story and inspiring business, thank you for sharing
Every time I tune in here I get so much inspiration and it keeps the girl in me to go that extra mile. Hey gal you can only make it or make it
Your name tells a lot,Our God is always faithful

Following,soon God will find my best friend and hubby.
Thanks for encouraging us Lynn God bless you
Nice interview, encouraging 😊
Beautiful
I like the blushing each time she talks about her hubby ❤❤❤❤
One of the episodes I resonate with.. Brought back so many emotions 😢😢😢... Happy I also got out of it...There is still hope.
That was good advise to Ms.Lynn Bernard.Alternative expressions .❤
Good to listen to a story from a person I know.
I'm so inspired,I will have to start again
Such a beautiful story 🥰waaao. I have enjoyed it and learned a lot. I am now dreaming about Smart curtains … Good job pal n congratulations to you both! You are a beautiful girl inside out. 🥰your story has inspired me a lot.
Great show ladies, watching from South Africa
You are very unique person educate your children to take care of themselves thank you so much ❤
Lige is for the living....weuh! Beautiful story,i have been encouraged.
Walking out should be normalized, it should be a national sensitization campaign. Right now, we are dealing with this as my cousin spent this Christmas in a coma in ICU, and is currently cold in the morgue due to spouse battery. This matter is very infuriating knowing that the perpetrator is still freeee and her young kids have to reconcile with the trauma of being witnesses to this evil and additionally grow up without a mother just like that!!😢😓
😭😭😭😭so bad….Me l walked out of that abusive marriage with my two beautiful girls 10 and 4yrs.But,God has been so Grecious to us👩👧👧
Pole sana
Peace peace to you and the entire family
Pole, may God take care of the kids. Very painful.
This story really has given me hope in life
Watching 💖 💞 well done Lynn
Esther my darling classie..May God take lead in your life forever..He's that faithful.. Your hubby is a gentle man..God bless him.
To lynn congrats and may God take you to higher levels.

Woow God of another chance,was about to use the shortcut way buh let me kip on waiting on God's timing
Love is beautiful❤
If your friends leave, don't let them back in. That season is over. You can forgive but move on far away from them. The devil doesn't play games. Trust me those will show their claws again at some point.
Wow !i love how she has anchored her faith in God .I trust in this God of a second chance
There’s hope at the end of it all
Happy holidays 🎉🎉 Lynn ❤❤
