TMI will definitely be global one day. You ladies are just God sent, you are so deserving of the Award. I love you guys so much. Keep doing what you are doing. Therapy for free.
What I've learned from my dad is to be PRESENT! My dad was a stay at home parent while my mum had a small job and would basically provide fee and other stuff while my dad would go to the garden and ensure we had the basics (mboga & mahindi for unga, tuviazi etc. But even in that, my dad dropped me and my siblings to school on a bike every morning and picked us up without fail, he made sure we were showered and ate when we came home in the afternoon. He taught us outdoor games, chezaad football chobo with us until mum came home jioni and we'd all have dinner together Hadi kesho we start over.I don't remember ever asking my dad for money but his everyday presence made soo much difference in my life. I love my parents forever!
Oh wow...I equally have an amazing dad but no stepmother, after my mum died he never remarried. but I guess he is okay with that. I hope he is happy with whoever he meets or whoever dates him.
I learnt many thing from my dad but one thing I learnt is that men can be very hands on with their children if they want to. My dad was very intentional when it came to us kids. He bathed us, helped us find our socks in the mornings when we couldn't find them, took us to all our doctors appointments. He would come home early from work, earlier than my mum to make sure we have bathed and had our evening tea. My dad was goals for me. The way my dad paid attention to my needs was off the charts.
I learned from my dad that God fearing men exist... Men that treat their wives well.. Men that actually love their wives and families.. That gave me hope and I started praying for a beautiful family.. and indeed God answered my prayers..🙏
I learnt from my dad that there is no reward for being a people pleaser... He keeps going above and beyond for people who don't even deserve it but no one is ever looking out for him unless they want something from him...This only made me realise that the world will use you if you let them...I've had to learn how to set boundaries
My father has taught me that I can achieve anything I set my mind to doing. Also, being a traditional man, I was shocked when he once told me that love is never reason enough to sit in an abusive relationship or marriage. I am not married or anything but the feeling of having a safety net in him is a blessing I don't take for granted. ❤️
My Dad has taught me What it means to truly be an active listener,He gives support responses instead of shift responses,he listens with the intent to understand even when He doesn’t agree with you,He is my biggest cheerleader,I have seen what loving unconditionally means through my relationship with my Dad. My Dad is one of the evidences that constantly remind me that God loves me.
What I learned from my dad is how tragic it is to refuse to face yourself. That you can be flying high one moment and lack 50bob for food or airtime the next. That burning bridges the minute you're inconvenienced costs you a great deal in the end. Living a life only for yourself is a pathetic little existence no matter how materially successful you may be. Work on yourself. Nurture relationships. Lay down your pride. Live simply and justly
"Our character is what shows up not our feelings when relating to other people" should definitely be printed on a t-shirt.. that's so profound and has made me shift my perspective on what I'm currently going through in life
Such a great topic. My dad passed away 20 years ago when I was 7. But to this day I feel myself intrinsically surrounded by his love and protection. Even though in the physical sense I've been painfully reminded of his absence when people take advantage of me not having a father figure around to protect me, I am always learning from this process that love is boundless, that there's so much of it to nourish me (first and foremost) and share with others that are worthy of it. When my dad was here I felt his love, protection, acceptance and care, and I move knowing I'm enveloped in all of that. His physical death doesn't get in the way of me (and my family) feeling his presence everyday. I miss him though, wish he was still here.
This has made me appreciate my dad soooo much more. My elder sister is a bit ungrateful and Extremely short sighted so I grew up with a negative view of him. But sitting back and looking at him from unbiased eyes, I love him a thousand times more and I'm extremely grateful to have him. May he live long because I need him till my evening days
My dad taught me that you can try again and the second time around can be so beautiful..beyond your wildest dreams😊 He has also taught me the value of hard work
I have learned from my day how children should be loved. I am 26 but we talk almost everyday because of how much he loves my siblings and I. I wish my kids get such a parent alongside myself. Super proud of that man!
Lydia, I totally relate. My mom moved to America when I was 10 and I didnt get to join her until I was 15. Those 5 years were HELL for me. I was super attached to my mom & didnt really know my dad like that. We had to go live my dad which I am grateful for bc it allowed us to rekindle our relationship. The fear of abandonment that comes from a parent leaving is intense. This is a topic I think needs to be unpacked. Ive never heard people talk about it in depth.
Mine was a whole 17 years! The trauma and abandonment issues I have and working through are still present today in my late 30s. This conversation is so necessary!
I feel you! It’s sad that such are thrown to us at a very young age. We end up feeling unsafe, unloved or even abandoned at some point. Later, the lessons during the journey makes us super grateful that we had to experience all that… Sending you love Laurette. ❤️
One thing my dad has taught me is that there is still good, pure hearted men out here. He loves everyone without expecting anything in return. He never speaks ill of others, respects everyone and also helps mum in chores and he is 60 years. I love that man. I'm looking for his twin to marry
The greatest breakthrough for me is knowing that our parents are humans who are flawed like any one of us. That made me appreciate my parents sacrifices for me more...despite how flawed they are as humans, they chose to give me the best they could.
My Dad never failed to remind me, to always give my best in whatever I do be it sweeping corridors or managing a firm and that giving respect isn’t status based in society.
I have learnt patience, kindness, hard work and integrity from my dad. I have also learnt to change and be flexible to situations; like you can be a better person in your finances, relationships, work, health, etc. You can change for the better. I also learnt that making your bed is the first accomplishment of the day. My dad has taught me about hope and having faith that things get better. On that issue of addictions and if it is willpower, it is not about willpower, we all have that but it will not help. It is about discipline, the courage to drop that bad habit, to take up the responsibility to fix it. Drinking is first a choice that can be fueled by so many factors, and then habitual consumption becomes an addiction. The combination of so many things; depression, anxiety, grief, failure, etc. makes it harder. And then it becomes a disease, you can not function normally without alcohol. Some people do not make the effort because they have given up on themselves. The ones that come out of it have hope, they believe their still some tiny hope somewhere, and they low-key wish things can be different.
My dad was an alcoholic and violent when we lived together. Like your dads, he was a well educated man,working, but choose destroy his life with alcohol. He is still working in Nairobi in a University but i have not seen him for 24years as i did not live in Ke so i cut the relationship. Only now i am able forgive. I love this topic so much cos i am able to think of what my father taught me as opposed to what an evil man he was. Thanks and love you both.
I have learnt alot from my dad but the most prominent one is ... plan while thinking of the worst possible scenarios, be kind and take extra steps... go ahead always opportunities are always close but not where you are currently
One thing I've learnt from my father is if there's an opportunity for your kids to have a better life away from you let them go. When my mother passed my father remarried and my mother's family decided to take my sister and I with them to Canada my father agreed and now he reaps the blessings.
I thank God for my dad,he is just the best and very supportive He took in my cousins when the mum died and provided all heartedly without discrimination. He Tought me how to hustle and make myself busy n to always take care of myself. We have travelled to different places together just to put food on the table and educate us. I can't wait for the day I spoil him silly again. He has sacrificed alot
I really enjoyed this episode because I get to learn from those who had their fathers around. 💯. We mostly talk about having an alcoholic father, but having an alcoholic mother who is also the only parent😭.
What I've learnt from my dad is that caring for other family members has no gender, as he always got us ready for school when we were kids and made our breakfast. He is still quick to help even when we are adults, despite the fact that he has always been the bread winner. My dad takes long to judge and forgives quickly. He is the number one cheer leader of any family member as long as, what they are pursing is legal.
To have to leave your kid in quest for a better life for both of you is one of the most heartbreaking decisions a mom has to make .Sometimes its either stay home and have an okay life, or be away for a while and make it better .I hope some day, our children will understand. This conversation hit home.
I discovered your channel when you were in episode 9 last year and your channel has really opened my eyes to alot of things around me as a young lady (22yrs) ..thank you so much for what you do☺️❤️you deserve the wins 😚....what I learnt from my father :" 1.a man who loves you will go to great lengths for you , if he wants to ..he will 2. Humility is not stupidity... May he continue dancing with the angels
My dad taught me that making your spouse and kids your best friends makes life very easy. Sharing meals as a family creates bonds and memories that last a lifetime.
My dad taught me nothing coz he disappeared even before i was born, but now i have learnt that a dad being in his child's life is the most precious thing. I have made peace with ill never know him and i dont even wanna know him. Ghost should just be ghost
I have learnt from my dad , being kind and staying truth to yourself will finally cause chaos hatred from outside environment ,but that how they get triggered sooo keep insisting being firm 😍
Wow, you guys have just been dropping gems. I had to get a notebook and a pen. I just got to the realization that because I got married young and I had not gotten to deal with my trauma, I have most definitely passed on my trauma to them. I kinda feel guilty but I pray that as they grow older I will be giving them the skills they need to overcome. I guess that is the best I can do for them now that I think the damage is already done.
Whenever men disappoint me, I look at my dad and be like,good men still exist and the quote "girls look for their father's in their partners" that's true cs I always say if I find my dad incarnate in my love life, I am gone. Thank God that amazing man, his actions talk more.
Very informative session. I love you ladies 🥰! My dad died when I was around 8 years old. I can't remember pretty much about him. But I remember him loving me so much! He was always there! It has taught me to love people whole heartedly but with boundaries too. Lydiah should venture into socialiogy and counseling coz she has a gift of thinking deeply into issues. Just a btw girlfriend 😘
Hello Khatunyi, Thank you darling. Sorry for your dad’s loss. He must have been a loving man.. may He keep resting well and gracing you with his love. 🤍🤍🤍
One thing I have learned....crammed....and maybe it is a PTSD issue but alcohol is something that will never step....in my mouth.26years and I cant even taste.i fear to turn out like that human being....good lord...
My dad is best father heavens offered me🥰I have learnt from my dad that respect is very vital in life and no one owes you anything in life whatever you want you work for it and you never entitled to someone 🥰and I love it 💯
I don't have any lessons from both parents my mum left me when I was 3months old at my father's ushago home ' to go get married' my dad has recently started talking to me this year may, coz I was blocked guys. The wounds and questions I have to for both of them 🙄 I have been raised by my shosho. But since I became a mum ndio nimeaza kukua affected like how could they just leave me and live there lives as if I don't exist 🤔 why??
My Dad has always celebrated me! As a kid, he would tell me I have the strength and beauty of the queen of Sheeba (sp?). He’s always believed in me, and held himself to a certain level of respect that I just cannot mess with. He’s not perfect but God knew he is just what I need. Love you Dad
Hey guys thank you for the topic Am going to subscribe i love the fact that you are talking about fathers because we women never recognize and appreciate men enough TYSM😍
Wow! This was so triggering but also very eye opening about my relationship with my dad. Thank you for having this conversation in a mature & healthy way. ❤
RIP to my dad. He passed away in 2008... From him I learned that --advise and support yo children's dreams --house chores can b done by both men and women and u as a parent shd find time to do chores with yo children. --parents should create a friendship/bond with their children
Honestly, i used to find Murugi Munyi quite the snob and I didn't like her as much. But this episode has made me change my perspective about her and i have realized that I judged her badly and i didn't even know her.(more work to do on myself) This is the episode she has been most vulnerable and she has swept my heart away. you deserve all the best in your life Murugi..
Aaah! Tons of lessons. Love the episode. Yeah this is everything i learnt from my late dad....I know that your life decisions not only affect you but those around you, especially family. ❤❤❤
My dad taught me that I am the very best thing that happened to him. Through each interaction I ever had with him and still have with him, he has reinforced the fact that I am PRECIOUS. The kind of self confidence this has given me cannot be put in words. He is the best dad in he world.
What i have learned from my dad : - advices for u as a parent. 1- do how u gona conquer the world if u can't conquer your room 2- be #present for your relationship for your kids showing up is important 3- trust but verify
Two things I learnt from my dad: Things will get rough and tough but you can always get back up. The need to have boundaries between siblings. I wil not be a sister in law or meddle like his sisters did
In Kikuyu there is a saying, "weka wega ni wee weika. Weka oru ni wee weika" (my spellings could be wrong). But it translates to *when you do good,you have done it to yourself. When you do bad, you have done it to yourself*. That is something that my grandmother told me all the time and I live by it.
@TMI Podcast KE I discovered your channel about a month ago on Utube. I have been binge watching/listening since. I do a long commute. Basically, every day, I get into the car and say in my head, we're Munugi and Lydia😄.I put on a Utube upload and listened to the conversation all the way in my long commutes. It is so refreshing! I smile, I laugh, I'm in awe, I hear and feel the possibilities of living a great life when you are true to yourself and ready to embrace and celebrate the light within you. Yesterday, a Utuber asked on her Community page if we listened to podcasts and which. I name your Utube podcasts, and some acknowledged my thoughts on my recommendations of your channel. Be sharing and telling everyone about you. I shared this episode with my brother, and it was a light bulb moment for him. Your conversations are appreciated and valid. More Blessings 💕 💕💕
My dad always said that cheap stuff is expensive😂So you need to manage your expenditure because if you are always chasing cheap things,you ought to spend more to replace it or maintain it
My dad taught me that as a woman, it is my responsibility to protect my husband's wealth against my relatives for the sake of my children's future. Dad, out of his love for his wife, wasted a lot of cash raising his inlaws only for us to have to depend on scholarships to become doctors. Now that am married, I encourage my husband to save and invest for himself and his children and he is not allowed to send my relatives money without my consent. He does the same for me against his family. It's a boundary we're both very intentional about. My family my responsibility. My husband will not pay for sijui my kid sister's varsity tuition fees. I'll do it!
Ndio nafika. You look beautiful without makeup. I think falsie lashes takes away a womans eye aesthetics, if there is something like that. You both look good
Love the "no makeup" look. Have learnt alot - perhaps one day I'll heal, for now I block his memory & avoid talking about it in detail to every Tom, Dick & Harry (not really succeeding). I'm still leaning more on neutral negative.
Wait pose, hit the like button, if I could subscribe again I would, and here to say "come on Fresh Faced beauties" Yassss! You ladies are glowing from inside out as always and I Love it!!! Gotta do my skincare routine tonight!! Now back to the video.
woow, Murugi today is spewing wisdom, and Lydia too I love their perspective on love and hurting those we love. Alafu ata Leo nimesubscribe,been your follower for long
Feels nice. Throughout I tried very hard to find positive traits of my dad but there is none. All interactions I have had with him have been toxic toward me. We've met only a handful of times since I was 8yrs old. Maybe I have to dig deeper, nobody is that "bad".
I am among the first one thauzand 🤣 subies . I have to admit Wednesday is my best day of the week. Even if things in the office could be tough sometimes but at least I am assured I have a fun podcast to listen to.
Murugi is so pretty. Was triggered the entire episode because I can't relate but at least I got a heads up on how to pick my children's father. if there will be children that is.
TMI will definitely be global one day. You ladies are just God sent, you are so deserving of the Award. I love you guys so much. Keep doing what you are doing. Therapy for free.
Aww! Thank you so much Carol! ♥️
What I've learned from my dad is to be PRESENT! My dad was a stay at home parent while my mum had a small job and would basically provide fee and other stuff while my dad would go to the garden and ensure we had the basics (mboga & mahindi for unga, tuviazi etc. But even in that, my dad dropped me and my siblings to school on a bike every morning and picked us up without fail, he made sure we were showered and ate when we came home in the afternoon. He taught us outdoor games, chezaad football chobo with us until mum came home jioni and we'd all have dinner together Hadi kesho we start over.I don't remember ever asking my dad for money but his everyday presence made soo much difference in my life. I love my parents forever!
Oh wow!! This blew us away… Lots of wisdom and love in the simplest of gestures.. We salute that gentleman. 🫡
Thank you for sharing! ❤️
Thank you TMI!!!!♥️♥️♥️♥️😚🥺
Yoohhhhhh....this is soo deep ..
So sweet ...
Thank you for sharing ... this was so heartwarming ❤️
One thing I learned from my dad is good men still exist, he is such a nice man. I absolutely love it for my stepmother, she earned herself a KING🤴
Oh wow...I equally have an amazing dad but no stepmother, after my mum died he never remarried. but I guess he is okay with that. I hope he is happy with whoever he meets or whoever dates him.
Awww! How precious is it to learn from your own? 🥹 We salute that gentleman! 🫡❤️
@namoshiegoldndalamia thank you, love & light to you sweetheart 💕
I learnt many thing from my dad but one thing I learnt is that men can be very hands on with their children if they want to. My dad was very intentional when it came to us kids.

He would come home early from work, earlier than my mum to make sure we have bathed and had our evening tea. My dad was goals for me. The way my dad paid attention to my needs was off the charts.
OMG! This is true! 💯 It’s in the little gestures that turn out to be great memories! What an awesome dad! 🙌🏾❤️
One thing I learned from my daddy is no matter how deep the pit you fall financially, there's always room for you to pivot again.
Great lesson right there! 💯👌🏾
My dad too 🔥🔥🔥the guy never stays down.
One thing I learnt from my dad is you don't always have to tell your story, the truth will always come out. May his kind soul rest in peace!
spot on! Dad was right. May he Rest In Peace.
wooooo chileeee , thats a good one
I learned from my dad that God fearing men exist... Men that treat their wives well.. Men that actually love their wives and families.. That gave me hope and I started praying for a beautiful family.. and indeed God answered my prayers..🙏
Learning from the best indeed. A loving man is a great foundation to the family.. we celebrate your dad. ❤️
Thank you
My loving dad taught me that calmness is learnt. You dont have to involve yourself in everything. Just know but react when really necessary.
How cool is that? A calm mind is a peaceful one. Thank you for sharing. ❤️
My Dad taught me nothing. But I still love him with all my heart. May he continue resting in peace.
There’s lessons in silence dear.. Look around and you will find them.
"People can love you and can still hurt you.. Because they're human"... That hit deep.
❤❤❤
I learnt from my dad that there is no reward for being a people pleaser... He keeps going above and beyond for people who don't even deserve it but no one is ever looking out for him unless they want something from him...This only made me realise that the world will use you if you let them...I've had to learn how to set boundaries
Sad truth! 😢
My father has taught me that I can achieve anything I set my mind to doing. Also, being a traditional man, I was shocked when he once told me that love is never reason enough to sit in an abusive relationship or marriage. I am not married or anything but the feeling of having a safety net in him is a blessing I don't take for granted. ❤️

This is beautiful. 💯 Thank you for sharing your lesson. ❤
What I learned from my dad is how tragic it is to refuse to face yourself. That you can be flying high one moment and lack 50bob for food or airtime the next. That burning bridges the minute you're inconvenienced costs you a great deal in the end. Living a life only for yourself is a pathetic little existence no matter how materially successful you may be. Work on yourself. Nurture relationships. Lay down your pride. Live simply and justly
Love this! 💯
Pure wisdom… also the beauty of life it’s in the uncertainity of it! 🥲❤️
"Our character is what shows up not our feelings when relating to other people" should definitely be printed on a t-shirt.. that's so profound and has made me shift my perspective on what I'm currently going through in life
Right? Thank you Debra for listening. Love! ❤️❤️❤️
Such a great topic.

He is truly your Angel.. May he rest in peace. 🙏🏽🤍
This has made me appreciate my dad soooo much more. My elder sister is a bit ungrateful and Extremely short sighted so I grew up with a negative view of him. But sitting back and looking at him from unbiased eyes, I love him a thousand times more and I'm extremely grateful to have him. May he live long because I need him till my evening days
My dad taught me to always remain humble…I was blessed with an amazing father who will do anything to take the hit or hurt before his family.
My dad taught me that you can try again and the second time around can be so beautiful..beyond your wildest dreams😊
He has also taught me the value of hard work
Awesome! Dad was right. ✅
We only bend never broken and hardwork does pay! 💯

We need to appreciate them regardless. ❤

I relate so much, my dad was the same n This made me want to think of the things I learned from him rather than focus on the bad🥲
❤❤❤
My dad has taught me to be selfless and to be a reliable person.long live that Man ❤️❤️
Long live dad! 💯❤️
I have learnt alot from my dad but the most prominent one is ... plan while thinking of the worst possible scenarios, be kind and take extra steps... go ahead always opportunities are always close but not where you are currently
So profound! Thank you for sharing your lesson. ❤
This is my absolute favourite episode! Witty, brilliant, raw and truth. You ladies have reached a new level of vulnerable. Good job!
Thank you Mukuna ❤️
One thing I've learnt from my father is if there's an opportunity for your kids to have a better life away from you let them go. When my mother passed my father remarried and my mother's family decided to take my sister and I with them to Canada my father agreed and now he reaps the blessings.
Dad meant well.. ❤ He must be a happy man right now. 🤗
I thank God for my dad,he is just the best and very supportive
He took in my cousins when the mum died and provided all heartedly without discrimination.
He Tought me how to hustle and make myself busy n to always take care of myself.
We have travelled to different places together just to put food on the table and educate us.
I can't wait for the day I spoil him silly again.
He has sacrificed alot
My standards in men are high because of my Father ❤ He's great in many ways that I wouldn't be able to exhaust here.
Awww!! Learnt from the best! He must be an honorable man. ❤️
I really enjoyed this episode because I get to learn from those who had their fathers around. 💯.
We mostly talk about having an alcoholic father, but having an alcoholic mother who is also the only parent😭.
Even with no make-up on, the gworls stay gworling! Literal star in my eyes right now! 🤩😍
Thank you hun! ☺️❤️
My dad has being teaching me ,how to think abt the future and be hardworking and he is so loving in his own way
What I've learnt from my dad is that caring for other family members has no gender, as he always got us ready for school when we were kids and made our breakfast. He is still quick to help even when we are adults, despite the fact that he has always been the bread winner.
My dad takes long to judge and forgives quickly.
He is the number one cheer leader of any family member as long as, what they are pursing is legal.
To have to leave your kid in quest for a better life for both of you is one of the most heartbreaking decisions a mom has to make .Sometimes its either stay home and have an okay life, or be away for a while and make it better .I hope some day, our children will understand.
This conversation hit home.
My father taught me to be bold enough to go after my dreams even if I'm scared. He followed his dream after 5kids!
Wow! An amazing dad he is.. 👏🏾❤️
Lydia!!!! Listening to you is therapy and a learning point; always. Thank you 😊
Thank you hun! 😘❤️❤️
My dad constantly teaches me the difference between humbleness and self depreciation.
My Dad once told me its not weakness being a woman. I was always trying to match up to my brothers.
And you know what? Daddy was so right! Own your womanhood. ❤
I discovered your channel when you were in episode 9 last year and your channel has really opened my eyes to alot of things around me as a young lady (22yrs) ..thank you so much for what you do☺️❤️you deserve the wins 😚....what I learnt from my father :" 1.a man who loves you will go to great lengths for you , if he wants to ..he will

Welcome aboard!❤
Loved this love you!!!! Doesnt matter how long or often i hear you talk your never boring!!!
My dad taught me that making your spouse and kids your best friends makes life very easy.
Sharing meals as a family creates bonds and memories that last a lifetime.
Love that!❤
My dad taught me nothing coz he disappeared even before i was born, but now i have learnt that a dad being in his child's life is the most precious thing. I have made peace with ill never know him and i dont even wanna know him. Ghost should just be ghost
I have learnt from my dad , being kind and staying truth to yourself will finally cause chaos hatred from outside environment ,but that how they get triggered sooo keep insisting being firm 😍
Thank you for sharing your lesson. ❤
Wow, you guys have just been dropping gems. I had to get a notebook and a pen. I just got to the realization that because I got married young and I had not gotten to deal with my trauma, I have most definitely passed on my trauma to them. I kinda feel guilty but I pray that as they grow older I will be giving them the skills they need to overcome. I guess that is the best I can do for them now that I think the damage is already done.
Thank you for watching. ❤
Take it easy on yourself, sure you’ll do well.
Whenever men disappoint me, I look at my dad and be like,good men still exist and the quote "girls look for their father's in their partners" that's true cs I always say if I find my dad incarnate in my love life, I am gone. Thank God that amazing man, his actions talk more.
❤❤❤
What I've learnt from my dad is that determination and consistency are everything. You can do a lot with the two
Facts! 💯✅
Watching TMI in my messy room😉😉 knowing I learn nothing or was tought nothing from my dad, Thanks ladies.
😂😂😂 i think we should do an episode in our messy rooms as well… Thanks Christine ❤️
Listening to you guys is so therapeutic, definitely helps me feel better.
We are happy to hear… thank you ❤️
Very informative session. I love you ladies 🥰! My dad died when I was around 8 years old. I can't remember pretty much about him. But I remember him loving me so much! He was always there! It has taught me to love people whole heartedly but with boundaries too.
Lydiah should venture into socialiogy and counseling coz she has a gift of thinking deeply into issues. Just a btw girlfriend 😘
Hello Khatunyi,
Thank you darling. Sorry for your dad’s loss.
He must have been a loving man.. may He keep resting well and gracing you with his love. 🤍🤍🤍
One thing I have learned....crammed....and maybe it is a PTSD issue but alcohol is something that will never step....in my mouth.26years and I cant even taste.i fear to turn out like that human being....good lord...
One thing I learnt from my dad is that a man stands by his wife against either her family or his when they are against her 👌🏿
A man’s protective is really important.. Remember the song ‘Us against the world?’ ❤️
My dad is best father heavens offered me🥰I have learnt from my dad that respect is very vital in life and no one owes you anything in life whatever you want you work for it and you never entitled to someone 🥰and I love it 💯
Great lesson! 💯✅
This is your best episode yet..... wisdom...keep winning!!!
Thank you Eunice. ❤
I don't have any lessons from both parents my mum left me when I was 3months old at my father's ushago home ' to go get married' my dad has recently started talking to me this year may, coz I was blocked guys. The wounds and questions I have to for both of them 🙄 I have been raised by my shosho. But since I became a mum ndio nimeaza kukua affected like how could they just leave me and live there lives as if I don't exist 🤔 why??
My Dad has always celebrated me! As a kid, he would tell me I have the strength and beauty of the queen of Sheeba (sp?). He’s always believed in me, and held himself to a certain level of respect that I just cannot mess with. He’s not perfect but God knew he is just what I need. Love you Dad
You are a blessed child! ❤

RIP to my dad. He passed away in 2008... From him I learned that
--advise and support yo children's dreams
--house chores can b done by both men and women and u as a parent shd find time to do chores with yo children.
--parents should create a friendship/bond with their children
Honestly, i used to find Murugi Munyi quite the snob and I didn't like her as much. But this episode has made me change my perspective about her and i have realized that I judged her badly and i didn't even know her.(more work to do on myself) This is the episode she has been most vulnerable and she has swept my heart away. you deserve all the best in your life Murugi..
I always watch your episodes more than once....you are amazing,i love you guys...keep doing this and being authentic
Thank you Genevieve! We appreciate you. ❤️
who has notice that today term no make up, am happy to be hear
Aaah! Tons of lessons. Love the episode. Yeah this is everything i learnt from my late dad....I know that your life decisions not only affect you but those around you, especially family. ❤❤❤
So true! Glad you enjoyed. ❤
this is by far the best episode I have ever watched. thank you thank you thank you !!!
Thank you for watching! 🤗❤️
My dad taught me that I am the very best thing that happened to him. Through each interaction I ever had with him and still have with him, he has reinforced the fact that I am PRECIOUS. The kind of self confidence this has given me cannot be put in words. He is the best dad in he world.
World best dad! 🥇❤
What i have learned from my dad : - advices for u as a parent.
1- do how u gona conquer the world if u can't conquer your room
2- be #present for your relationship for your kids showing up is important
3- trust but verify
THE FIRST ONE AT EXACTLY 12:01PM. ADDICTED
If addiction had a name😊thank you for another great conversation ❤
Thank you Agnes! 😘♥️
Two things I learnt from my dad:
Things will get rough and tough but you can always get back up.
The need to have boundaries between siblings. I wil not be a sister in law or meddle like his sisters did
looking fabulous without makeup ladies 😻 I thought we would have an explanation of the no make-up look though
In Kikuyu there is a saying, "weka wega ni wee weika. Weka oru ni wee weika" (my spellings could be wrong). But it translates to *when you do good,you have done it to yourself. When you do bad, you have done it to yourself*.
That is something that my grandmother told me all the time and I live by it.
Grandma is equally wise and right. 💯❤️
Amazing healing conversation. Everything you both shared was so revealing and true. This is a must shared. It was invaluable.
Thank you Doreen. ❤
@TMI Podcast KE I discovered your channel about a month ago on Utube. I have been binge watching/listening since. I do a long commute. Basically, every day, I get into the car and say in my head, we're Munugi and Lydia😄.I put on a Utube upload and listened to the conversation all the way in my long commutes. It is so refreshing! I smile, I laugh, I'm in awe, I hear and feel the possibilities of living a great life when you are true to yourself and ready to embrace and celebrate the light within you.
Yesterday, a Utuber asked on her Community page if we listened to podcasts and which. I name your Utube podcasts, and some acknowledged my thoughts on my recommendations of your channel.
Be sharing and telling everyone about you. I shared this episode with my brother, and it was a light bulb moment for him. Your conversations are appreciated and valid. More Blessings 💕 💕💕
Premium gang🎉🎉
Love you ma ladies...i love how Lydia speaks my mind i want that courage to be that out spoken
May you receive it! Amen. 😊❤
Road to 100k.🥳murugi took the step..
You already know!❤
My dad always said that cheap stuff is expensive😂So you need to manage your expenditure because if you are always chasing cheap things,you ought to spend more to replace it or maintain it
Cheap is expensive! Don’t doubt dad! 😅❤️
I love the look today. I feel well represented😊
Me too
Yay! Thank you! ❤❤❤
My dad taught me that as a woman, it is my responsibility to protect my husband's wealth against my relatives for the sake of my children's future. Dad, out of his love for his wife, wasted a lot of cash raising his inlaws only for us to have to depend on scholarships to become doctors. Now that am married, I encourage my husband to save and invest for himself and his children and he is not allowed to send my relatives money without my consent. He does the same for me against his family. It's a boundary we're both very intentional about. My family my responsibility. My husband will not pay for sijui my kid sister's varsity tuition fees. I'll do it!
I think I was among the 1st 100 subscribers for sure!!!!!I am addicted to you guys!!! 🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️
Thank you ❤❤❤🎉
TMI and God be holding me up🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️
😂😂
My dad taught me not to make decisions with the first thought. Always think twice
Ndio nafika. You look beautiful without makeup. I think falsie lashes takes away a womans eye aesthetics, if there is something like that. You both look good
Lydia very natural was looking at her and was like what's missing nikakumbuka " make up"
Love the "no makeup" look. Have learnt alot - perhaps one day I'll heal, for now I block his memory & avoid talking about it in detail to every Tom, Dick & Harry (not really succeeding). I'm still leaning more on neutral negative.
I just love how positive your content is
Thank you. ❤️
Wait pose, hit the like button, if I could subscribe again I would, and here to say "come on Fresh Faced beauties" Yassss! You ladies are glowing from inside out as always and I Love it!!! Gotta do my skincare routine tonight!! Now back to the video.

I love their perspective on love and hurting those we love.
Alafu ata Leo nimesubscribe,been your follower for long
Thank you.. ❤
Very present every Wednesday,but today am here earlier...12:09pm....what work? Office time and Wifi.?
Feels nice. Throughout I tried very hard to find positive traits of my dad but there is none. All interactions I have had with him have been toxic toward me. We've met only a handful of times since I was 8yrs old. Maybe I have to dig deeper, nobody is that "bad".
❤❤❤
It is the natural beauty for me❤
😘❤
I am among the first one thauzand 🤣 subies . I have to admit Wednesday is my best day of the week. Even if things in the office could be tough sometimes but at least I am assured I have a fun podcast to listen to.
You're the best! ❤❤❤
Happy New Month 💐 Ladies
You both look refresh
Lydia putting pressure 😄
CONGRATULATIONS 🍾 🥂 🎈 to more🏆. More Blessings 🙏🏿 💕💕💕
Thank you! You too! 😘❤️
My dad life's showed the importance of Moderation.
Murugi is so pretty. Was triggered the entire episode because I can't relate but at least I got a heads up on how to pick my children's father. if there will be children that is.
😘❤️
