  • To Adelle Onyango my absolute Idol. 🤩

    When Adele left her job at kiss 100 . I felt like we (Kenyans) would never have so many deep conversations but this is a great outlet especially for someone like me. But the main reason for this comment is that want to cohost with Adelle so badšŸ˜©šŸ¤ŒšŸ¾. I just want to hopefully work with someone as genuine as interesting as deep and understanding as Adelle . Aki nothing but love for this show . Look how far you’ve come omg 🄺🄺🄺. Please don’t stop šŸ’ā¤ļøā¤ļøā¤ļø

I Did Everything Right. So Why Isn't Life Working? | Legally Clueless Ep 388
Q: What was your first memory of being labeled the 'number last' in school, and how did that affect you at home and in class?

The Freedom Of Choosing Yourself | For Mannerless Women
Q: How did you reclaim your body and sit comfortably in it given the loss of traditional guidance, and how does your art help with that?
