I am 40 years old this year, and I grew up in Kibera Laini Saba. I am a graduate. I have hope! I will be better!

Fulfilling our dreams,also went for diploma at 47,today a master in Jesus name,I am 64 years

I was in a toxic marriage for 7 yrs an i thank God i quit before i ran mad Now my babies are grown up, nimekuwa shosh n i thank God very much

This is an excellent interview. All form of abuse is urgly and must be stopped. Abusers are merciless and ruthless. Call them out and stop them. Expose the bruises, it's the only way to cure and wellness.

Kagoni ndirekire form 4 2016 ndina 50years after the death of my husband and I'm still making

Wow,learnt alot about her,she has not revealed more about her spouse ,what an intelligent woman.She looks younger than her age .kudos mum.

Lessons I have learned (1)Do not let any obstacle hinder your dreams.(2)sacrifice for a positive agender pays.(3) Hard work is the only key to success.(4) Submission is good but do it wisely.(5) Education is for us all,regardless of one's age.(6) Always invest in your family because of your old age.Finally but not the least make God your best friend and always learn to forgive even the unforgivable.Thank you mum and Monicah.Mum you are a strong woman and you're going far in Jesus mighty name!

I have just come across this interview this morning. Shockingly I went back to school 2 weeks ago to persue my diploma and then degree in my early 40s. I almost gave up but this interview has inspired me.

Very inspiring story from mum You have motivated me ,and you have given me the reason to go back to school ,and i attain my degree and if its Gods will even PHD,i did Form 4 in 1991,i attained grade C in a Provincial High which i joined with 427marks,,but being the first born in a family of 7,in a poor background i never continued with college.before end of this year i will have to join University by Gods grace Thanks alot Monica Kagoni for such an encouraging testimony

Ooh my God.. I knew the story but barely half of it . This is my aunt...mama macharia..as we know her.. my heart goes out to you.

I went through emotional abuse for more than 20 years. Today am free but it wasn't easy

If there’s someone who is happy about this interview is madam wakiama 🙏🙏

Listening to Dr. Penny I see my antie.... Married to a psychopath, going through so much, and she has a good pay

Ngarana Dr you are a fascinating woman. Hearing you reminds me that God is never late. You Inspire me. Congratulations❤

I left an abusive marriage 10 plus years ago i realised the law of life is greater than the law of marriage

She looks younger than her age despite going through all the abuse God's grace is sufficient for sure

Dr. Penny you are so youthful and beautiful. Quite inspiring: intellectually and emotionally.

The most important thing I have learnt from her which I have also held on is seeking the blessings of my children from their father. And for that reason I forgave my husband too .

Thanks Monica for interviewing our mom. Like she said im a great follower of you and we can't wait to see you in America

The way I have given up at only 26🥺🥺🥺I have changed my mind now.

Best show ever kweli live this life now because tomorrow is a promise and promises don't always fruition

Your introduction said it all " andika kioneki giaku kihengere-ini na number nene nitondu muthenya umwe wa mithenya nigigakinyanira" every woman should listen to this inspiring story ♥️

Those brains could not have gone to waste. She's too intelligent

Mûtura muoyo ndagaga, I love this

I already love this woman. I love people who choose to live a better and become better person and not pity themselves. Change and transition is an individual decision. Dr. Penny you are a great inspiration.

God this is what happened to me , after 27 yrs of marriage God help women like me

Am 21 yrs old ... Monica am a big fan of metha 😊..what was striking for me from Rev Dr penny is whatever you may have lost or taken away by the devil will surely be repaid heavily by God , all the sacrifices our siblings do for us especially firstborns is worth n God will pay it n lastly is that she acknowledges that life is too short n we are here for a while so we shouldn't be ungrateful for whatever reason ❤❤❤❤

These are the kind of women who should mentor the current so called modern woman. Unfortunately they are very few. She is very sober, realistic

What an inspiring story! Many women in abusive marriages have been set free today!

I love this woman. She's the epitome of strength ❤❤

Such profound lessons from Rev./ Dr. Penny Njoroge; 1. forgiveness, 2. it's never too late to accomplish dreams, 3. seeking the blessings of God and those He has placed on those seats of honor and blessings, regardless of what we know or think of them! May the Lord help us!

There is one thing Dr. penny said and I've always known to be true.. if you have good parents and they tell you don't marry someone please don't marry that person. I've studied so many women in my life who had ok parents, and they refused to heed to their parents' warning/advise. Some of these women are now dead.. Kuna pahali wazazi uona mbali. Thanks dr.penny for sharing your story. Indeed the roots of toxic/abusive marriages have been in Kenya for so long!

I'm so inspired by Dr. Penny, one day i shall testify in Jesus mighty name.

wow, this woman has really inspired me, though in my late thirties with zero resources i can actually study again, God bless you mum.

Dr Penny is such an inspiration. Acknowledging her vulnerbility yet showing her strengths. Lets learn from her.

This lady is so inspiring. I can listen to her all day. May God continue to enlarge your boundaries Dr. Penny. Thanks for persevering.

Oh Dr penny, I'm also getting healing from church I'm believing that my God is guiding my children to recover

mama you are blessed❤, the gals have found a mother in you, like Ruth did in Naomi. My prayer too..alot of lessons from this talk. Tears when you talk on depotation😢.

I know this lady & she is full of wisdom,great at events especially women conferences

Very inspirational. I remember its just recently a certain priest was reprimanding women in either Bungoma or Kakamega, one of those two, telling them that they shouldn't complain about their husbands coz they've got 6 more chances to marry and i protested. Why then should we have Holy Matrimony if that's the case? I feel as much as both genders may go through abuse, the society is to blame. This is why; when men cheat, they are validated mostly quoting the bible that David n Solomon had many wives but when a woman wants to leave the same man she is said to be foolish and demishing her own home. Therefore, can we stop with the double standards and solve this problem before the marriage institution becomes extinct. That phrase "GOD HATES DIVORCE" has caused many to endure hell in their marriages silently coz their is no where to run to.

Ngai wooooi.mimi sikufika hapo but kuna time my xhusband enjoyed me with my salo but nikasema never again.weuh mimi nikikuja metha ya kagoni nitajiiturura although i healed long time ago

Turned 35 doing a diploma I thought I was too old but hii degree I will definitely do it!at 36 she has inspired me

Men carry our children blessings Forgiveness and let go. Love yourself .

I am so encouraged by this story, I have changed my mind set, nothing is impossible, I would like to meet Dr on a personal level. It's amaizing

What a powerful powerful story!! I have learnt a lot. Once again I am grateful that my late father treated us well.

I lost my 24years old marriiage and was broken into million small pieces😢 bt whenever i listen to this kind of stories i feel whole again thanks alot kagoni

Hello am new here , cushite i understand kukuyu i can relate to your story mum , we say when there is hardship at the end come ease.

I couldn’t help but shed a tear listening to the struggles Dr.Penny and her family went through to acquire what so many take for granted; education. Reminds me of my late grandmother who ran away from her home to get education. Although she didn’t manage to go to school, she ensured that her children & grandchildren get educated. Dr. Penny your story inspires us to dream big and to honor the sacrifices made by our loved ones.

Îî, Monica rûu nî rûgano rwega mûno rûrahe andû aingî mwîhoko kana nî kîrîgîrîro? Mûgeni mwîhorereru ûtarî na matûhûhû. Kîrathimo kûrî ûrîa wothe ûkûmûthikîrîria.👍🏾

Hi Kagoni, we've been told to come here by Lynn but I don't understand Kikuyu, kindly provide subtitles if possible. Continue doing a good job

I have learned that when marriage is not working, mother in law should not demand my kid ati alee coz am still alive and I am their mother. So, if her son is a dictator/narcissist in the marriage, let me go with the kid's later, i myself will reconnect them to their dad lakini si hii ufala ati watoto niletewe nitalea it's a BIG NO.

I looked forward to watching the live show but I got held up at work, Such an inspirational talk I have been So broken in what I thought was marriage from the man to mother in law but got the freedom and working on my vision so hard, may God remember those who are going through such.

Wow....I am just applauding this courageous and beautiful hearted lady. Truly, it takes God to stand up and call out abuse especially in the face of societal judgment. So many are suffering. My personal takeaway is you can rebuild and be restored at any age. I feel encouraged and inspired. I pray for God's love and favor to adorn her and her family in every step ❤

A brilliant and inspirational mind there. Pole for what you went through . Your story is a testimony and has strengthened me.

Wololo!!! Chinekee! Here I am almost giving up. Thanks Daktari. Back to my drawing board.

This story have encourage me... after 10yrs I have decided to go back for my degree...am very optimistic to pursue till PHD I HAVE TO PURSUE IT HELP ME GOD

This is very true. We see red flags in courtship but we ignore, i also was naive and have suffered the consequences

What a testimony ! May the Lord help us to forgive. Rev Dr Penny has a big heart. Live long mummy.

The Sacrifice She Did Is Now Being Paid In Double Portion By God. It Is True That Whatever You Sow Is What You Will Reap. Dr. Penny Much Love❤❤❤❤

Don't understand the language and love to hear the story, please English translation will do justice to many.

I thank God for you Rev. You are speaking to me now. May the Lord preserve me and help me to accomplish his purpose

The depth of this lady, confirms unspoken pain of so many and choice that many felt obligated to conform to. I have a lot of respect for her. I choose to unlearn what makes us hurt, I picked my way and that which was in alignment within me and the God I love and that who loves me. No one deserves the pain she endured. God wants you to be peaceful and happy, then be a beacon of light to others.🤗🙌🌟

Waooo! 👏👏👏👏The truth about marriage and why we take long to leave has been let out..... Very brilliant lady.... You make me understand my mother, myself and many others. Thank you 🙏🙏

deeply inspired most variable lesson the power of forgiveness

An episode full of wisdom. Glory to the Almighty. Tell the righteous that it is well.

May our CREATOR continually Protect, Provide and Guide Dr Penny. Grant her Inner Peace, everlasting JOY.❤❤❤

So refreshing and gives a lot of hope. Shosh you are very blessed indeed,at 76 years,you look very young and vibrant. Your knowledge and motivation is admirable

This is my mom's story. My mom's properties were taken from her after 35 years of abuse. My dad was taken by those who look for wababas she sits there consuming my moms sweat and sleeping on my moms bed

What a Resilient and Marvellous Woman, you are amazing, keep on inspiring 🙌🏿🙏🏾

Thanks...areal therapy for those in pain n agreat lesson about forgiveness for me . thanks more years n grace mum

You can Forgive someone but have nothing to do with the abusive man Children can respect him and do everything and still he will bless whoever he wants (Nûage kūmarathima)

Very inspiring It takes the hand of God to say enough is enough and leave and move on The fear of what people will say has made women hold on in abusive marriage while others are killed or made disabled

What an inspiring story..I have learnt the power of forgiveness and that God is a God of second chances...

This story is just but the best. I love her vulnerability. It has come at a time alot is going on in my mind. Thank you Monica. Thank you Dr Penny. With God,it's possible

Very inspiring testimony form Dr Penny, you a wonderful woman, a woman of substance God bless you
