    This: once you let go of the expectation of how things ought to be you become delightfully inundated by something else. Not the thing that you thought you wanted but the thing you actually need.

    So relatable. My best line was how you recognized how institutionalized we become after making a career. And the entitlement that comes with Education . Great speak 💥💥💥💥

    I am just in my first steps of coming out of my comfort zone. I am one creative person who has wasted over 7years wallowing in self pity, frustrations and regrets. Thank you Nthiga for this

    I ignored this soooo many times only to watch and see that it is exactly what i need.I ignored it becasuw i prejudged, i remember you from Nairobi Half Life and thought what could a seasoned Kenyan actor living the life possibly know about broken dreams. The floor, not just the rug, has been knocked off from under me and been trying to rebuild slowly. Thank you so much for sharing your story, it is an inspiration

    This I can relate too 💯, with the same breath I can also tell you God changes things, when you are down & out surrender to Him & praise Him, He'll surely come, I am waiting & He's been good

    I really enjoyed listening to this. Being institutionalized, as you put it, is the biggest pandemic we have to overcome. And yes, not knowing what to do when the rug is pulled from under our feet is not always a bad thing, it provides room for introspection which most of us never really have time for. Great speech!
