It's been a while we had a chit-chat about life on this space.

Hope you guys are doing well. 

I've been wanting to do this post for the longest time now. But life has been lifing. 

It's been challenging to keep up with writing updates weekly so I thought it would be better to change it. We will now call our weekly updates Life Lately so that I can post them when I'm ready or able to. That said, here we go with life lately. 

Busy and overwhelming these past weeks. If you didn't know, I am a social media manager and strategist for social impact (I work with non profits and charities). I am building my professional and personal brands and it is energy and time consuming. It's something I enjoy doing and like any other job it can be overwhelming. These past weeks have been survival mode for me and I'm on a mini break now to avoid burnout.

I'm making the most of the second half of the year. Evaluating and improving. also praying more and trusting God for the best because He is the Almighty God and I can only trust Him for all my needs. 

I'm taking content creation even more seriously on this blog and my YouTube channel and will be more intense about creating content to inspire and inform ambitious women to become knowledgeable, as well as financially and emotionally intelligent. The tips are really practical and honest with a details of what I do for my self growth. 

The determination to do this intensely for the rest of the year came from my desire to make this last part of the year count and also since I shared the trad wife post on YouTube which got more views than usual in a few hours. Watch the video here. 

Life lately has been full of eye opening experiences especially career wise and much retrospection; I've been exposed to work experiences that will definitely help me in the future as a social media manager and strategist for social impact. There are fresh ideas to explore and I'll be doing that on my career page Kaolosphere. 

I'm excited for the rest of the year and if you you are also determined to make the next 5 months count then say 'I got this!' in the comment section. 

Wishing you a wonderful week ad see you in the next empowering post. 💋

On her list were the traditional wife creators who own monetized accounts which I agree with because they teach women to be traditional wives but they have accounts that make them money and give them a certain degree of independence depending on how much they make.  

At the end of her post, she asked her audience to mention other scams if they knew any. A lady mentioned women working cooperate jobs which makes them feel broken. My first thought after reading her response was 'There are women who love and enjoy the cooperate world so why say that?'. Then I saw that below her response, someone said what was on my mind to her and she responded saying that what she mentioned was her experience. At that point, she was told not to generalize but to talk about her own experience. 

That post made me think about the number of posts that I have come across where some women said that; a woman who works is operating from a masculine energy because women are not meant to work. 

Honestly, I didn't even know if I should agree or disagree with that statement when I first heard it but over time I realized that I strongly disagree. 

There are many independent women who are very feminine just like there are housewives who are not feminine at all. Femininity is an energy a woman carries and applies in everything she does. So a woman can work, earn a living, be independent and still be very feminine because her being feminine is not determined by the fact that she has a job or she's working.  

With this trend of women wanting to be dependent on men, I wonder if there's a consideration for the risk of losing it all in case things go wrong. I know some kind men take good care of their wives and family without even complaining but it's always an advantage when a woman has her own money. Not all women married to or dating men who are providers have the freedom to express themselves or do what they want, And if the man is abusive it makes it even ten times harder to leave when you are dependent on him. To make depending on a man financially work for you, you have to make sure you save from what he gives you and you also have valuable properties in your name so that you can have something to fall on or to start a business in case things go sour. 

It's true that by nature men are providers because that's what makes their ego grow but we now live in an era that requires women to work for their own survival and safety. Times have changed. Not only is life more expensive than before, but life is more complex because everything is being sold compared to before when people could rely on nature to provide food and shelter for free. 

If you are blessed with a good man who is a provider, don't let it stop you from working or saving up or investing because there could be rainy days though we don't pray for it. 

Don't let trends fool you because if there are consequences you'll be the only one to bear it o. Ok.

Hope you are doing well. Today let's retrace my journey on Youtube. I must say I have grown on this platform despite not being very consistent with creating content there. I think I've had more of seasons on YouTube. So here are the various seasons I've had.

It's been an interesting journey on Youtube looking at all these stages and hopefully I can come back in a few months to share another remarkable growth and milestone with you guys. 

Happy Sunday. Hope you are doing well today. 

Today is the second day I'm waking up to blogging on my laptop and it feels so amazing. For the past months, I've been creating content on my phone. My laptop and desktop got bad at the same time making these past months challenging for me to work and create content. I love working on my phone but there are some things which are easier to do on a computer. Also there's a wider view I get while working on my laptop or computer which makes me feel creative in a different way. 

While working yesterday I was excited to open my blog and other pages I havent seen on my computer for a long time. When I got to my YouTube channel, I was able to see my videos together and I realized that I've had quite a journey of growth on YouTube. I will talk about the highlights of that journey in my next post.

This morning while blogging. I still have to repair the keyboard of my laptop but I'm so happy and grateful that I can use the external keyboard.

The old feeling of being a blogger is comming back since I started blogging on my laptop. And I love the feeling so much! Also I get less distracted on my computer because i have motifications from apps like instagra and facebook. And the feeling of "just pressing my phone the whole day" has reduced lol. 

😊

Hope you are doing well. 

I haven't been consistent with the weekly recaps so here is what happened these past few weeks.

I haven't hiked for more than a month now but I've been working out seriously at home and lost some more weight. I feel proud of myself and I shared more about it in my latest youtube video.

Also, I've been taking my skin care seriously and I added a few fashion items to my wardrobe. 

For what's new, I explored new short hair styles and started gardening again. Yay! I'm really excited about seeing my plants grow.

There's been more desire to clean up and organize some spaces in my home that I hadn't cleaned in a while. 

That's what I've been up to lately and just to add that I'm actually writing this blog post on my computer and I'm so happy to be able to do this after such a long while. My computers all got bad and I'm glad I was able to get at least one of them repaired. All this while I've been blogging on my phone. Though I love blogging on my phone, there's a different lovely feeling when I blog on my computer. 

So guys tanks for reading my post today and let's catch up in the comments with your thoughts and what you have been up to lately. 

We hiked Mt Fébé & Ngoa-ekele. I have separate videos of these experiences which are each unique

Hello everyone ,

It's been a while since I last shared an update, but here's a quick recap of what's been happening in my world lately:

I've been having a great time enjoying the delicious mangoes of the season. Sadly, it seems like the mango season is almost over, and it went by too quickly!

I tried something new and absolutely loved it - hiking! It's been an amazing experience that not only keeps me physically fit but also strengthens my mind. I shared my first hiking experience recently here in the blog. Despite feeling sore after a few hikes, meeting like-minded people on the trails has made it even more enjoyable.

By combining intermittent fasting with my hiking routine, I've seen positive changes, especially in losing some belly fat. I shared more about my fasting journey in a recent YouTube video, so check it out and support my channel if you can!

With the academic term coming to an end, I'm thinking about fun activities to keep the kids entertained during the holidays. I'm also looking forward to a break from early morning school routines.

Dealing with a recent cold was tough, especially right before a hiking trip. It left me feeling tired and unwell, but I'm optimistic about the week ahead and excited to see what's in store.

I appreciate all your support and encouragement as I navigate through these experiences. Your positivity keeps me motivated to keep moving forward towards my goals. Remember to share your own stories and adventures with me - I'd love to hear about them!

Wishing you all a fantastic week filled with progress, happiness, and success. Let's continue to support each other as we strive for our dreams!

Stay healthy, stay active, and cherish every moment.

Thank you for being a part of my journey. Let's make the most of this new week together!
