- For many years, Joyce Gituro knew she would one day face the stereotype that comes with being a single mother , but she did not think her married friends would be the first one to walk away .
But today, she is absolutely unapologetic of the lows life has dealt her. She is making lemonades out of the lemons and living her life to the fullest .
Here is her rebuilding story on today’s episode of LNS

Lynn, your guest today is an incredible woman come day come sunshine. She lives a purposeful life regardless of what the people/enemies talk or gossip on her. I am her royal fan, both on the radio and her channel.
The most important thing about life is self-fulfilment not external affirmation. At the end of the day, either positive or negative things dont miss to be said. It's human nature.
Maybe to remind my sister Joyce that as we navigate life, priorities change both individually or in our friend's lives. Each phase you walk in life accords you new type of friends to help you experience or walk in tandem with that stage. It's not by choice but the circumstances. Consistency in relations is hard because as we scale the heights to our destiny, each one of us takes difference routes including those that you thought are much closer. Do not wrong them because some of them were not meant to last long according to God's plan. Maybe by staying toxicity could have happened too.
Granted, there are those that abandon you when you need them most but what if their staying was not the will of God? Just forgive them.
Again, in retrospect, Joyce, you may realise that it was good riddance after all. God's time is the best time and as long as you are at your best mental wellness, why bother that they left?
Single motherhood/fatherhood is not a sin but circumstances that human beings pass through due to many factors. You can't judge someone by their predicament or circumstances for each one of us has a unique life trajectory to pass. What is important is that the victim is able to surmount the challenges that come with those temporary pumps. Joyce, you were able to successfully navigate through to this day. That's what matters. I affirm you 💯 for coming out and sharing your story on Lynn's show today for many to learn that shining out there attracts many friends but when at your worst they disappear.
❤❤❤

Ooooo my God! I'm here for mama Jakes. Si leo nipewe hata ka likes😊😊😊
Single Mums have a backbone God❤️
Let's stop the culture of shaming.
Whenever I hear a woman mentioning prayer I always know her case is settled... Never underestimate the power of a praying woman.... I love you mom ❤❤...
🙌🙌
🥰🥰🥰
This true, am mother of very beautiful girl who was rejected I lost my way almost died I looked right,left,down without getting help😢, I decided to LOOK UP. I run to the CROSS WHERE I LAYED DOWN EVERYTHING IN THE THROWN OF GRACE ❤, God is amazing, if anyone ever meet ME mentioning the name of God evrytime 😂 Give my peace 😅😅. Love you Lynn one day I will visit you in person ❤
As a single mam my life is a product of prayers
The 1st question i ask a woman who has issues is, do you pray? Coz meeen prayers are everything
So ya'all ignore how beautiful Joyce is???😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
It's evident dear. Just burifu na figure ❤❤❤
Its true, mama jakes is such a beauty!
She is a shosh with make up...
Finally our Gituro in the house mama wambilianga wetu 💕💕💕💕
I remember this lady one Sunday as she was on radio citizen with plaster Eddy Ngaruiya, they prayed for me when I sent my prayer request as I was seriously sick in bed and for two years I could not attend to my church, with my faith I managed to recover slowly slowly and managed to reach my church and of course continue with my life where I could. God bless you so much Joyce, I love you from the bottom of my heart ❤❤❤❤
My kind of lady! Her story resonates with me so much. As a single mom of three beautiful kids, I have build my empire as a single parent and a single woman. God is sufficient.
Beautiful episode!
❤❤Amazing girl
My rhema moment: what I don't hide from God, I won't hide from man.... That is liberation. ❤
Hello team LNN
Thanks to all single parents for not giving up on your kids may God bless you in everything
Thanks darling 😍
Thanks darling God is always at our sides we Single Mothers God has our final say..❤❤❤❤❤listening at Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 always blessed in this show..Blessed LYNN your blessing to many and your going far in Jesus Name 🙏
ooh yes you can say that again, as single mothers we only have one agenda, praying earnestly for our children
Loved this episode. Joyce kept it real and raw and had nothing to fake. This type of honesty is bery rare in kenyan women. May she find the love that shes praying for. The victimization of single mothers is what makes most women die in miserable marriages. There is nothing wrong with leaving a relationship that does not serve you anymore.. kids or not.
Great discussion. I started listening in and shortly got into other things.
Thank God I listened till the end, you ladies are incredible, that kind of laughter...😂, no wonder you look so young.
As for Joyce, I relate with your story about 80%.
- I lost my marriage to a lady pastor (from the cult church)
- For over 17yrs I have been a single mom of 2 biological (son 19 in Form6 & daughter, turning 17 this month, in Form4) and 1 adopted daughter 21, now in university.
- I got abandoned by all my married friends, fearing to take their husbands and also their husband warned them against me.
- Got so much rejected, no respect in the community.😔
- Backslided for some time, though kept in church as if all was well....hmmm 🤔
- Dated the wrong person (narcissist) for some time 🤦, now out of that relationship.
- Back to Christ, repented and now moving on a happy, blessed daughter of the most high.
- I love taking my wine once in a while, but I take it from home, a few times during family parties.
- I belong to a number of groups, of which one of the groups I am the Chairperson.
- I love looking smart and I work on it so perfectly.
- I have been an iron lady, ( lioness) 😂 as you put it to my children...... Incidentally we are not so close with them😔. I went through a lot fending for them with little earnings, staying away from them for work for some days when they were young and somehow it has had an effect on them. We talk, yes, we share but not as close/warm as I would expect.
- I have gained my freedom in salvation of not seeking approval of the dos and don'ts from anyone. I read the word of God myself and pray a lot.
- I changed to a Pentecostal church from Anglican because the pastors welcomed me the way I was, did not condemn me, became my friends, helped me walk the rough road of rejection/failed marriage and they allowed me to serve in the church.... I am a servant in our church.
- At 50, I am open for love. Praying to God for a God fearing friend that will translate into a husband 😂...... One day while praying in my closet, I opened my Bible and God led me to Eccl 4:9-12... The heading was, It is better to have a friend, I have since started praying for a friend instead.
On the other hand (20%)
- Not yet financially stable...... Imagine still an employee, an HRM in a company.
- Not yet a grandmother, I know it's lovely carrying them, loving them 😂
- No personal business as a back up.... It's a long story, and part of it is spiritual BUT I will get there.
- I am very grateful to God for the far he has brought me and very hopeful that my tomorrow will be greater than today....
Wueh
Don't stop, don't give up keep that spirit of being strong woman
Single mothers are always strong❤❤❤❤
When you accept yourself the best status to be while financially okay

Your giving me courage
Beautiful woman. Am so inspired by the way she talks. I am a proud single mother to three beautiful kids.
Here I am at a crossroad as a single mother, then comes Joyce Gituro to give me a boost of confidence..thank you Lynn.
Mama Jakes, Wagituro she is such a vibe.She encourages us everyday na bible verses on her social media pages...❤❤
Its good to have Mama Jakes here,so inspiring ❤ misfortunes will introduce you your true friends,thank you LNN
I'm a strong single mom over 10yrs of 2 girls highly favored by God have scaled through mountains but here iam still a child of God who never gave up in life ,it has been a journey .Grace n Mercies of God am holding on to.Thanks wagituro for sharing ur story .
Am a single mom and this discrimination thing is real, I work as a real Estate agent and it happened that my daughter anasoma shule moja na one of the landlord's kid. After bibi kujua that they school together anasema the husband ndiye ananilipia fees. Am wondering, don't single mums earn? victimisation is too much.
when you hit rock bottom you may do things you never thought you may do but God’s grace is sufficient to bring you back to his love
I never knew that she carried such an inspiring story! Knew her through Jeridah.
Joyce, you are an incredible woman. You have done a very great job in raising your kids❤️. I love your friendship with Jeridah, may you two last and continue raising each other. Continue inspiring mama💙.
Been single is a blessing and ministry. Enjoy your singlehood and I hate when some married women put single mums down. They should remember they were once single.
A woman of God full of wisdom. My take home is prayer and being honest to yourself
Hard times makes us realize real from fake friends
1
Soo true my situation now
True, friends and relatives choose them wisely
Not all around you are friends last year I had a lady close to me and her husband got fired there life's was hard,,,cos I knew the family and their situation I had to give them capital to start a business ,,sema watu kunipa character development baada ya kusaidika,,,anyway it's life 😂
Say that again
That part of mentorship and listening to the voice of God ....has touched me to the core.I used to listen to her gospel show ,it helped me through some tough times .Thank you.
❤hukam saa ngapi n which station?
I am happy to watch and listen to this lady, such an inspiring story, happy to know this thing of freshers in campus might not come home some days.....you don't know how you have helped me. I resonate a lot with this story. Single mothers are children of God.
Her story is so inspiring, Joyce is a strong woman and a good story teller, I actually can listen to her the whole day🥰
God bless you mama Jakes

As a single mother, I used to feel inadequate about parenting my son, and one day the Holy Spirit convicted me reminding me that I get to partner with the God of the universe for ALL my needs! When I need wisdom, he gives it graciously, when I need strength, he doesn't hold back on that either!
Such an awesome testimony from Wagituro!!!
Get back your baby daddy into your Son's life and leave God out of this.
I call HIM my Chief -Co- Parent.
@@KathambiIsraeljaki your son might detest you in future for not letting his father co parent him
@@bongolove4748 a man is like an umbrella that shields his family from elements of life...if you ever see a woman walking under the rain uncovered, she definitely has a good reason as to why.
@@KathambiIsraeljaki God is truly a gentleman.
Best interview I've watched this year so far! It was a great show full of immense lessons
The most natural, organic and beautiful conversation ever❤❤ and Joyce’s laugh is so infectious 😍😍
My mentor is finally here,Wa Gituro you inspire me so much...am also a single mum and I can attest to everything she is saying.
The strongest words,commit and pray for your children.
I just love this lady she is strong and best Mum ever 😍😍😍
I stood with my friends when they went through nasty divorces and I've no regrets. And yes we're still very close years later.
That part of praying for your kids,thank you Mama Jakes ❤
I love this woman aki....your kids are so lucky to have you. Learning alot from you as a single mum
Only depend on God if you want happiness.Take it as a season. As a single lady I find i have nothing in common even with my very best friend. No haite, just that wakiongea za watoi na bwana i have nothing to say. I wish single people, widows and widowers would create their own groups since the married dont accomondate them, even in church. You would be very surprised how powerful you become and even make those others jealous! Lord remember to mix and match lone people and start with me. Tuombeane
That's very nice...
I support yoi
She has a strong spirit
Am single mum of two girls and am learn alot from you Joyce.....
Ohh Yes me too 👍
It is so nice to hear from her she is my role model. I separated from my husband and life still go on ... and what I have experience men date me thinking iam rich woman and i leave them ...since i have hard from you you now I know I'm in good place
That's was so owesome thanks Lynn for hosting this wonderful lady..wagituro you've done a good job, hapo kwa kwenda out you've talked to me, cos me is job church and home😂😂😂atleast tutoke tuonekane also a single mom of 2 boys..❤

Mama Jake's. You're the best. The best interview for single mothers to hear
Thank you Lynn for bringing Joyce today. She has a free spirit and I love all her perspectives on matters life. You have balanced it so well.
I love how she is jokingly talking of her living husband.

Mama Jakes AKA wambilianga was so excited to see her here ...I love her and jakes they just put a smile on my face
I feel my self esteem being boosted by this story of joyce ....so educative..ladies let's raise our bar....I ain't going to provide for any man,,,its should be the other way.thanks joyce I feel inspired
This Kenyan Journalist is wisdom personified. Love from Cameroon always at Mama Gituro.
You're such an amazing single mother madam Joyce,,may God bless you always,,being raised by a single mom,,l really do understand what our mothers do go through 😢 while trying to find something to put on the table 🙏🙏

Just stay single dear. You will mess your children with relationship. I wish I can join you abroad.❤
One of my best segments this year. God bless you Lynn , Your Team and Joyce Gituro.😊
ITS THE AUTHENTICITY IN HER WORDS FOR ME
I relate so much to mama Jakes alot,the stigma i faced especially from church members and people i called friends
Excellent interview Lynn quite inspirational. I have just got a prophecy that she will get married again
An example of a woman of integrity in the midst of turmoil
Joyce you've really inspired me as my fellow single mum,lemmi just struggle things will be okey.imagine what you are talking plain truth,mimi niliskia jirani akiambia mwenzake hata watu waking'aria mabwana zetu hawatapata coz bwana si easy going😢😢😢
My mother was so weak to leave her marriage, we childrens suffered the most. I admire all single mothers, are strong and powerful.
Joyce Gituro,I love how principled you are,iam writing this before I finish watching,I am a strong believer in the perfectness of our God,I thank God that you are deeply rooted in Him,May He complete your story with a beautiful testimony in His perfect will.May the desires of your heart be granted to you by Our righteous and just God,you will not remain the same.All things work together for the good of those who love the Lord.
Powerful
Wa Gituro Aka Mama Jakes & Lynn
Thanks for the awesome show.
My take home is marry your friend, when all is done , the friendship will still be there.Ata sisi masingle dad's we learning
Plus don't be too religious to fear Man than God.
Lastly pray, Faith n believe
This got me right on time as a single mother thanks so much Lynn.
Finally mama Wabilinga on set, always my role model. Thanks Lynn
Joyce you are not alone im single 58 one daughter never married i always pray the will of God be done in my life coz the bible says the plans of God will not be thwarted. If know God encourage your self in the Lord 1 Samuel 30:6 David encouraged himself
Gud luck we are many singles bt I blv my peace of mind is more important en if God blesses us with soul mates we shall be happy.. Ameen
Lynn story ya young single lady's wa getto can we have one😢....love your shows❤
I can't wait for the time where Lyn will be interviewed. I need her story too. Joyce please do this for me
I UNDERSTAND YOU MY DEAR, I HAVE BEEN IN THAT SITUATION BEING A SINGLE MUM AFTER A BREAK UP WITH THE FATHER OF YOUR KIDS ITS NOT EASY.....
BUT YOU KNOW THE KIDS ARE ALWAYS BLESSED AND ALWAYS GOD FIND A WAY FOR AT THE END.
I don't trust my friends, they will always leave you in your difficult times, the only friend I can trust isGod, he will never leave uno matter what 🙏🙏💯
Hi Lynn, thanks for bringing this beautiful lady.I admire her with the relationship she has with her kids. Its good.. Celebrating single mothers. I'm also a mama Jakes. 😊.. God bless.
Thank you for bringing Mama Wambilianga on the show.Quite inspiring!
Wooow I love mama jakes..thanks for having her..am a singlemom too..whatever she is saying is true..we are judged harshly..And yes we are going to be like open books not to fear men who will not give you eternal life
Thank you for this opportunity to learn we have a lot in common Joyce my kind request is if I can join the single women serving God group
Thank you, Gituro for sharing your story. Very inspirational .My pick,don't loose yourself in church.And to Lynn,you are God send to help us unwind n come out of our hiding depression
This was a beautiful show 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The energy was vibing - loved these two ladies, keep the good work. 🫶🏽💝
Thank you for bringing Mama Jakes❤❤❤
I like the way she's put it.
That verse of...." I know your plans".... and also about prayer.
I can listen to this lady whole day long. She is a vibe. Plus ako na Lynn imenoga sana. These two if they open a church I'm in😂😂
Ofcose the wine part with religious believes is contraversial to the hardliners, but it's nothing much compared to the candid, honesty and openness that came out vividly. That is Joice wa Gituro for you Mrs "call it as is" no sugarcoating. Indeed, the definition of inspiration is nothing else.
Arudi tena for 3 hours..... 🎉
Mama jakes is ❤,my role model,am a single mum and i pray may the will of God be done to ad me
I must watch this to the end, Mama Wambilianga❤❤❤
I have shared this chat far and wide, so much to learn from. Thank you Lynn and your team and my big applause to that honorable woman.
Joyce Wairimu wa Gituro, you have really inspired me on so many levels about my life in particular...I am rebuilding and restoring intentionally...Happy 2024
Lynn l have listened her past interview in other channels but in this one she looks more purposeful.
Today's guest has such a positive vibe,i love her personality and wisdom she has. Thank you Lynn for the wonderful content you give us very educational and insightful ❤.
My take home, Believe, Hope, Trust and above all, Pray.....be open n honest with God... Thank you sooo much, this has really encouraged me 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Mama Jake's you are a strong woman, you always inspire me as a single mom,,May God lift you day by day
