When it comes to losing weight, dieting is by far the most popular strategy. Intermittent fasting is becoming increasingly popular, but what exactly is it? Intermittent fasting is more of an eating pattern/cycle than a diet. Intermittent fasting advises you WHEN to eat rather than WHAT to eat. You only eat at certain times of the day and fast the rest of the time.
In this week's episode, we are joined by Margaret Gatwiri, a nutrition therapist, who discusses Intermittent fasting, the benefits, how best to go about it, the science behind it and finally the dangers it may have to people with certain conditions.
Karibu, and we hope you'll enjoy

This week's episode was a spillover from last week's episode, we explore If you really want to find meaning, do you embrace activities that connect you with something greater such as connecting yourself with the pursuit of knowledge by working toward a college degree, committing yourself to the care of others through volunteer work, dedicating yourself to the expression of love through raising a family, or any number of other endeavours or should meaning preceded you taking up said endeavours?

following the #IMFStopLoaningKenya #StopGivingKenyaLoans #IMFloan and other such trends on social media, it is clear to see that a lot of Kenyans are unhappy with the way government finances are being spent. Looking for a scapegoat, many Kenyans chose to air out their frustration on his excellency, Jayden himself, and accuse him of being a bad president.
In this week's episode, we try to determine if Jayden is truly the evil mastermind Kenyans make him out to be or he's just a victim of circumstance and if the Kenyan economic apocalypse we keep fearing is real or vastly exaggerated.

The two favourites have been Telegram and Signal, apparently for offering greater privacy.
