This Little Feeling

This Little Feeling

I don’t know what this is. I don’t know if it is hope, or fear, or a mixture of both sitting on my tongue whenever his name crosses my mind. But it feels like something is shifting. Something I didn’t anticipate. Something I wasn’t ready for.

And God… I’ve tried to fight it. I’ve tried to talk myself out of it, breathe myself out of it, busy myself out of it. But I still find myself checking my phone like a 16-year-old girl waiting for a message she pretends not to care about.

Soft Power

Chapter 11: Soft Power 

There are women who hustle and then there are women who attract. She became the latter, not because she stopped working hard, but because her energy began doing the heavy lifting.

She no longer chased validation or survival; she embodied worth. Her presence whispered power; her silence drew in what she used to plead for and it all began the moment she started treating her entire life as the masterpiece.

Becoming Her Own Mother

Chapter 10: Becoming Her Own Mother

So she began tending to herself the way a mother tends to her child. With patience. With consistency. With presence.

She started feeding herself love in small, steady doses, choosing meals that nourished her body, not punished it. Choosing silence when the world demanded noise. Choosing sleep over endless scrolling. Choosing softness over performance.

The Return of the Inner Child

Chapter 9: The Return of the Inner Child

From that moment, she began to design joy into her days with the same precision she once reserved for multimillion-shilling projects. Sunday mornings turned into dance breaks in her penthouse, Sauti Sol, Tiwa Savage, Beyoncé, her barefoot rhythm echoing against marble floors. Thursdays after six were art nights on the rooftop, where she painted without rules, poured wine into her favorite glass, and laughed at the chaos of color.

Happy 7th Birthday to My Son, Adriel

Happy 7th Birthday to My Son, Adriel

Adriel, my son, my sunrise,
I bless your hands,
that whatever you touch will prosper.
I bless your voice,
that it will carry wisdom, truth, and joy.

I bless your steps,
that every path you take will lead to good things.

Now I Know What Safety Feels Like

Now I Know What Safety Feels Like

Safety feels like conversations that don’t end in confusion.
It’s knowing I can speak my mind
without being punished for my honesty.
It’s when someone looks me in the eye
and means what they say,
not just because it sounds right,
but because it feels right,
in their tone, in their timing,
in the way their energy never betrays their words.

It Wasn’t Love, It Was Safety

It Wasn’t Love, It Was Safety

I think I understand now,
why love never felt enough before.
Because I was never looking for romance;
I was searching for refuge.
I wanted to be seen
without being judged.
Heard
without having to raise my voice.
Held
without having to earn the right.
I wanted to exist
without being on guard.

Why Do I Love Like This

Why Do I Love Like This?

It’s almost embarrassing how fast I feel things.
How I can go from “hello” to “I wonder what their childhood was like”
from “thank you” to “do they mean it?”
from one small act of kindness to
“maybe this is the beginning of something.”
And I ask myself, again and again:

Why do I love like this?

Motherhood as a Millionaire Strategy

Chapter 8: Motherhood as a Millionaire Strategy

During career week, Adriel introduced her: “My mum plants beautiful places and makes gifts that make people cry happy tears. She’s very rich, but she still picks me up from school.” The room laughed. She blinked back tears. That was her brand: powerful, present, and deeply personal.

She had one unshakable belief: “My son will never associate abundance with absence.” She didn’t hide wealth from him; she included him in it. He came with her on business trips...

I Didn’t Heal to Start Over, I Healed to Start Living

I Didn’t Heal to Start Over, I Healed to Start Living

It’s strange how once you stop begging for the bare minimum, life stops handing you discounts on your worth. Opportunities started arriving that matched my healed self, not my wounded one. People started treating me the way I treated myself. Money started flowing in ways it never did back when I believed I wasn’t worthy of ease. And suddenly, without forcing anything, I was living a reality I once thought I had to suffer to earn.

Something Soft Woke Up in Me

Something Soft Woke Up in Me

I like the way your presence makes my day feel less heavy.
I like the way I find myself smiling at nothing hours after we talk.
I like the way the universe used you as a reminder instead of a test.
I like that you gave without trying to own.
I like that I didn’t have to perform strength around you.
I like that something in me softened instead of bracing for impact.

I did it, vinaywa

I Did It

May this printer never lack purpose.
May every page it prints be wrapped in prosperity.
May every project it completes
bring in clients that align with my growth,
that honor my craft,
that remind me I am worthy of overflow.

Let this be a tool for expansion,
a magnet for miracles...

My Mind Chose Silence So I Could Live

My Mind Chose Silence So I Could Live

So no, I don’t remember everything. But I remember enough. I remember what it taught me. I remember how long I lived in fear without knowing that was what it was. I remember the numbness. I remember the silence. I remember the exhaustion of being the strong one, even when I didn’t know why strength felt like survival instead of identity.

So today, I honor the missing years, the blank pages, the sections my mind sealed shut. I honor the forgetting...

Taking the Rose-Colored Glasses Off

Taking the Rose-Colored Glasses Off

I don’t need the rose-colored glasses anymore.
Not because the world is ugly, but because it’s finally beautiful in its actual form.
Flawed. Human. Honest. Unpredictable.
And real enough for me to show up fully without pretending.

I’m not rushing into the next era.
I’m not declaring a new chapter.
I’m just here, breathing differently, seeing differently, choosing differently.

This is What Alignment Feels Like

This is What Alignment Feels Like

I’ve been receiving upgrades in places I didn’t even know needed renewal.
Opportunities. Peace. Clarity. Self-worth. Boundaries that don’t shake anymore. Love that doesn’t hurt. Joy that isn’t borrowed.

And the thing that breaks me most in the best way?
I don’t even know how I got here.
I just know that I didn’t give up.

The Night Before Everything Shifts

The Night Before Everything Shifts

Tonight feels different...

And now here I am, sitting in this soft, golden stillness, the night before buying my printer. The night before I stop asking and start printing. The night before I hold in my hands something I once begged for. Something I once thought was out of reach. Something that represents more than just a tool for work, it represents a new season.

Blessings in Disguise

Blessings in Disguise

Today didn’t just test my patience. It tested my pockets, my emotions, and my ability to stay calm when everything seemed determined to go sideways. What started with a wrong number ended with a lesson I didn’t expect…

So yeah… maybe today really was a blessing in disguise. A rough, expensive, draining kind of blessing. But a blessing nonetheless.

The Soft Rebrand

The Soft Rebrand

Every inch of my life is getting an upgrade.
The way I walk,  slower, but louder.
The way I speak,  softer, but sharper.
The way I carry myself,  like a woman who knows she’s the prize,
because she is the prize.

And it’s not even about what’s happening around me.
It’s about what’s happening inside me...

Marry the Man Who Loves You More

Marry the Man Who Loves You More

Marry the man who looks at you like a prayer answered slowly,
the man who doesn’t need to be convinced
why you deserve softness, or loyalty,
or the kind of love that doesn’t give and take with conditions.

Marry the man whose love speaks louder than your overthinking,
whose consistency silences the noise inside your chest.

If I Had a Wife

If I Had a Wife

If I had a wife,
I’d be further by now.
Not because I’m more capable,
but because history has proven how easy it is to climb
when someone else is holding the ladder steady.

If I had a wife,
I’d have it easy.

And Then, The Blessings Came

And Then, The Blessings Came

So I speak this out loud:
More orders are coming.
More abundance is flowing.
More answered prayers are on their way.
I am no longer surviving, I’m expanding.
My hands are blessed. My business is blessed.
My voice is heard. My work is seen.
I am in overflow now.

The Bloom After the Leap

The Bloom After the Leap

I loved the way clients’ eyes lit up
when they saw their orders,
how they would whisper “this is perfect,”
and rush away,
excited to place it in the hands
of someone they loved.

I lived for that exchange.
Their gratitude became my fuel.
Their joy became my profit.
And the money followed too,

Closing Page

Closing Page

Maybe that’s the real lesson here. That healing doesn’t always come from closure, or from them finally saying the right words. Sometimes it comes when you’re too busy living your own life to keep checking the door for their shadow...

This is my closing page. This is where the story of him ends, and the story of me continues.

Luméa Scents kenya

Luméa Scents

In the middle of life’s busy seasons, we all crave little moments of peace. A candle flickering softly in the evening. A handwritten affirmation that reminds you to breathe. A custom journal that holds your private thoughts, healing, and dreams. That’s what inspired me to create Luméa Scents...

The Richness of Arrival

The Richness of Arrival

She doesn’t rush. She invests in fabrics that love her skin: linen, silk, wool, cotton. She wears perfume not to attract, but to anchor herself. Scents that smell like abundance, warm, layered, unforgettable. She moves her body not out of punishment, but out of devotion. She doesn’t chase it, she attracts it. She doesn’t hoard it, she multiplies it.

Maybe I Lived Before

Maybe I Lived Before

Maybe I was a powerful rich woman in another life. Maybe that’s why I hate chores, why I crave quiet, why I roll my eyes at anything cheap or chaotic. Or maybe I wasn’t. Maybe it’s just the way I’m wired, this strange cocktail of personality and taste.

Matching Energy

Matching Energy

I’ve realized something about myself.
I don’t always want to be the bigger person.
Sometimes I want to be the mirror.
Sometimes I want you to taste what you served me.

I'm matching energy.

I Will Return With Myself

I Will Return With Myself

Sometimes I think about vanishing the way animals hibernate, not to punish, not to run, but to gather the broken pieces, to let the body do the work of mending without apology. To close my eyes and let the cold teach me slow repair. No calls, no explanations, no friendly messages typed and deleted, only the slow drip of self-care like sap rising...

The Secret is Consistency

The Secret is Consistency

We start. We stop.
We dream. We doubt.

We say: it’s impossible.
We say: it doesn’t work.
We say: maybe it wasn’t for me.

But the truth?
The truth is, most of us quit
midway through the race.

The Cost of My Devotion

The Cost of My Devotion

And to anyone who mistakes my devotion for weakness,
may you learn quickly:
a woman who knows her worth
is the most dangerous kind of free.

Because when she loves you,
she builds you.
But when she leaves you,
she rebuilds herself twice as strong.
