Went To The Hospital With My Eyesight, But Left Blind (part 2)

My apologies first of all because it has taken me almost a month now to update part 2 of Eve Kibare's story... but better late than never, right?? Have fun. And incase you missed our first part, check it out to get the flow of this incredible story🙌!!

Went To The Hospital With My Eyesight, But Left Blind. 

Eve Kibare is our guest today and all I can say is life is full of surprises. Today you might be having your eyesight, tomorrow you might be visually impaired.Be kind. Be gentle. Enjoy!!!

Big Brother, Storytelling, Reggae and Dancehall.

We all have a story to tell and we are all stories to be told. On today's episode we get to hear the story of one of the baddest female MC and radio host Kwambox. We get to hear how she entered the world of Media and why she believes the only tribes in Kenya are the haves and the have nots. This is a good one!! Please take a seat.

Mwikali Mary. 

Months after she interviewed me on Full Circle with Mwikali, she kept her word and I'm the one interviewing her on Hide Out podcast🤗 and I tell you what? The universe really has a way of surprising us🙌🏾. Enjoy!!

Catcalling. 

Catcalling is a form of harassment primarily consisting of unwanted sexual comments and has been normalized and disregarded as a joke. May is mental health awareness month and I'm sending love and light to anyone who has dealth with this kind of harassment 💚💚.

Poverty of Identity (part 2)

This is a continuation of Rix Poet's story on our previous episode. I hope this beautiful story helps you remember on this journey exactly where you left you. Enjoy!!

Rix Poet (part 1)

One thing about story telling is it will either leave you speechless or wondering what really happened next and Rix Poet is one of those people when narrating their story makes you feel like you were there when it all happened. "We've got to be bold about our own truth. Sometimes there is a price to be paid but our silence will never save us."
He says. I hope you enjoy this first part of his story and part two will be up later 🤗🤗!!

Things Women do that other Women Like. 

Whoever said "Women are their own enemies" should prolly hear this episode and come for a small pep talk because those were pure lies to be honest🙄🤗!!

Ainea Ojiambo

Back in the days when Makutano Junction and Tahidi High were the most watched local dramas in almost every home, Ojiambo Ainea was a common face on our screens. We all have a story to tell and today we get to hear his story on Hide Out Podcast. Enjoy!

2021 Recap

On this episode with Mutcy (potato lover😂) we are talking about what 2021 taught us. I must admit we both had lots of learning, unlearning and relearning to do, I hope you did the same. Thank you for always listening to HIDE OUT PODCAST the whole of this year❤️. Much love from me to you😘🥂.

Content Creation with Barbara Nyambura.

Content creation is the talk of town and when you're mentioning tiktok creators I'm sure the name Barbara Nyambura comes automatically on your mind. I got a chance to interview her on Hide Out Podcast and my God! This was a very beautiful episode. I hope we bless your Jamhuri day. Happy Festive season fam🥂.

MEN-tal Health

November is MEN-tal Health awareness month and I had two amazing guests Faith and Brian and we had an interesting conversation. Did you know what no shave November actually means? Well stay tuned.

Tetu Shani

Mufasa Poet.

We are coming in hottttt🔥 here on Hide Out Podcast and it's all about poetic October this month. Take a seat and just listen to this episode, utapendaaa👌.

I crowned a clown by playing wifey duties (Toxic Relationship)

Finally did an episode with my childhood Bestfriend Faith Israel and all this episode is all about is how she realized that she was in a toxic relationship and weeuuhh!!! This was a good one. Enjoy.

Suicide and all its insights.

Suicide is the act of taking one's life and can be triggered by mental health, relationship problems, marital issues, financial worries, death of a loved one. Suicidal thoughts aren't always "I want to die" they can also be I feel trapped, I feel like am a burden, nothing will ever get better, I can't bare this anymore. Suicidal people should be met at a point of understanding and love because all they need is someone to support them, show them love, appreciate them, show them some empathy and compassion. Finally did an episode with an old friend of mine Andrew Miller so please enjoy the episode❤️.

Hide Out at 1

Hide Out Podcast at 1🥳 and it has been quite a journey. One thing I've learnt is that God will always bring people your way for a good course and that everyone that crosses paths with you has something to teach you. To all those people I did episodes with thank you so much and to those we had planned but it failed another chance to try again is here. I'm so grateful for you and your beautiful heart. For being here, for listening, for sharing and for you just being YOU🌹. I pray that this new chapter we get to learn, relearn and unlearn things.

Grieving my Boss🕊️.

Grief means intense sorrow/intense emotional suffering caused by death, disaster, misfortune or loss etc. Mary Mwihaki shares her story of how she witnessed her Boss being shot to death. Grief is too much love with nowhere to go🕊️

One on One with Rapchasayantist!

I just interviewed Rapchasayantist on Hide Out Podcast and I must admit he is so cool and a down to earth guy!! Always keep in mind that "Information is power and there is power in a human voice👌🏽."

Love is Love🏳️‍🌈 (Real, Raw, Unedited)

If you're a lover of Kenyan movies I bet you've come across this movie Love is Love on YouTube ❤️.. This was a fun episode😅😅, I hope you get to laugh and wear your crown unapologetically. B proud. Be loud. Be you. Go subscribe to their channel and stay tuned for love is love prt 2🔥

Imposter Syndrome

Do you ever feel like everyone believes you're amazing at what you do but you don't see it that way?? Always remember that when great things finally show up, you deserve all that and so much more.

Trauma Bonding

Leaving an abusive relationship isn't as simples as walking out of the door or solving a 1+1 kind of questions. Trauma bonding is an emotional attachment which develops out of a repeated cycle of abuse, devaluation and positive reinforcement. People who haven't experienced abuse often struggle to understand why people remain in abusive relationships but you need to understand that nobody chooses abuse.

Let me tell you Maina, lack of clarity in life is frustrating!!

There's nothing as frustrating in life as lack of clarity and not knowing which direction to take. On this episode we talk about reasons as to why we as youths we lack clarity in life.

Toxicity (ft Mutcy)

We are all human beings and we are all flawed hence anybody can be toxic. A toxic person plus another toxic person results to repulsiveness. Always keep in mind that it's a "them" problem not a "you" problem. On this topic Mutcy and I discuss more about toxicity, how to recognize toxic people, how to deal with them and how to heal from them. Check this link out for more points about this on her blog https://wordpress.com/posts/muthokamutcy.wordpress.com

Twist of Fate.

How many twists of fate do you think are allowed in your life👽??

Boundaries in friendships/relationships

Boundaries means where something ends and another thing begins. Standing up for your self is not the same as wanting to start an argument. Remember your boundaries are the blueprints for how you want to be treated and you're not insensitive for how you feel. Brian Coverlagy is always a vibeeeeeee❤️ he's a good storyteller no doubt😂😂

Gaslighting

Sometimes it's not the physical violence or the verbal abuse or the lack of boundaries and inappropriate behaviour. The real damage is the denial that these incidents ever occurred. The erasure of the abuse is worse than the abuse itself.

Ghosting as a defense mechanism (part 2)

The worst part about getting to know someone then they ghost you are all the little details about them left over in your head with no purpose and no where to go🤥

Ghosting as a defense mechanism.

They say communication is a very important part of any friendship or relationship but what if someone hurts you so bad, do you still need to explain to them why you detached yourself from them? Join me and Brian Coverlagy of The Curve Podcast for more details pertaining this topic.

For the love of cameras📷.

They say pictures speaks a thousand words. Victor Mwenda Muli commonly known as "mullyeyes" narrates his story on how he came to fall inlove with the cameras and his passion for photography. Follow him @sauce_africa on Instagram and check out his amazing work.

Being content in the 'now'

It's possible to desire the 'next' but also be content in the now. Contentment is not giving up. Its about finding peace in who you are and finding joy in who you are capable of becoming.

Get To Know Me ft Mutcy👽.

You see how tables turn😂😂?? Yes please meet Mutcy. Initially this episode was about Mental Health but this girl had to turn it all round on me. All thanks to her Hide Out Podcast now sounds like a safe space for me too because indeed I got to answer some questions like who am I because I must admit I sometimes forget who I am😂😂😂.... So many people get to share their stories on your Podcast, but who gets to share yours🌸??

Embracing The New🌹.

There comes this journey which becomes the most important journey you shall ever come to experience. It will be a journey so hard to achieve but it will be the best journey you'll ever have to take. Whatever it is that awaits you on this other end it will require you to be strong and brave. Your circumstances may not have changed but you are no longer the same. You have grown in strength despite all your weaknesses. It's time to rethink how we are as humans, time to forgive, time to remember our maker, time to call those loved ones and genuinely mean that. Time to let go of the old and embrace the new. The universe is healing, so should we.
 Happy new year!!!     👽

Gender-based violence on the LGBTQ community (ft Evance Ogada.)

Everyone has a right to feel safe and secure regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. In the cases of men who do not act according to dominant masculine gender roles, the severity of the punishment for men who do not act according to expectations concerning male gender roles may be related to the perceived danger that their difference presents to normalized and dominant assumptions about gender. You are not alone. Whether you're a man or a woman. Whether you're somewhere in between or somewhere beyond, you exist. You might feel small and fragile in the faces of statutes, laws, stones, insults, a church-state and family that tries to deny your existence, but YOU EXIST🏳️‍🌈.
Merry Christmas from Hide Out Podcast and thank you so much for your support all through. God bless!!

PRIORITIES

Make sure whatever it is you're prioritizing is prioritizing you as well.

Sexual Coercion and Rape Culture.

Sex without consent is RAPE. Getting rid of the branches doesn't make the roots go away but addressing sexual abuse needs earnest attention and emphasis on how it is done. Awareness is needed.

Apology languages.

We talk about love languages alot but I'm realizing that many people don't realize there are apology languages. Understanding what people need from an apology is very important.

The Law of Attraction

It states that you're a masterpiece of your own life and whatever it is you're feeling is a perfect reflection of what's in the process of becoming.

Scars to your Beautiful 🌹

You should know you're beautiful just the way you are and you don't have to change a thing about yourself. We are scars and we are beautiful. There's so much beauty in being yourself. Don't let your BRAIN BULLY YOUR BODY!! #HideOut

Becoming Great.

Usiwaiogopa. Isipojipa leo, kesho itajipa

Conmen 🙄

Have you ever been conned?? Please send in your experiences and stories... I'll share them in my next episode

Apology languages.
