14% into You Become What You Think by Shubham Singh and it's already doing something to me. Here's what landed and why I needed it right now. 📖

I picked up You Become What You Think by Shubham Singh recently and I’m only 14% in and it’s already doing something to me. 📖 That percentage sounds small. But some books don’t need to be finished to start working on you. Some books find you at exactly the right moment and the first few chapters are enough to sit with for days. This one landed on a chapter called Life’s Only Constant Is Change.…

The Real Cost Of Building Online In Kenya Nobody Talks About Honestly | Gikonyo Leah

Let me tell you what building online in Kenya actually costs. Not the motivational version. The real one. 🌿 This week the real cost was data. Again. It’s always data. You have a content calendar, you have the posts written, you have the energy to show up and then your data runs out and suddenly the whole plan is sitting in your drafts waiting for bundles you haven’t figured out how to pay for…

Learning To Speak Kindly To Myself | What My Daughter's Bike Fall Taught Me | Gikonyo Leah

Yesterday afternoon my daughter fell off her bike. We were heading to shop with my cousin and her son from her place Milana on her bike, me walking alongside, on our way to get some matumbo for lunch. (If you’re not familiar, matumbo is a Kenyan delicacy we eat with ugali and sukuma wiki. Absolutely delish. 😋) She wobbled, lost balance, and went down on the street. And before I even thought…

The Silence Season \ Rejection, The Wait & Choosing Not To Settle | Gikonyo Leah

I almost said yes to a job that would have cost me more than it paid. This week I found myself deep in a conversation about a job listing a marketing internship at a resort. On paper it touched my actual skill set. Social media, content strategy, the things I’ve spent years building. So part of me lit up. Maybe this is it. Then came the details. The location. The commute. The pay or lack of it,…

When God Is Quiet But Still Working | What Joshua 1:9 Said To Me This Week | Gikonyo Leah

I launched my first digital product this week. 🌿 It’s called the 30 Day Biashara Content Starter Pack 30 content ideas for Kenyan small business owners who don’t know what to post. I built it, designed it, uploaded it to Selar, set the price, and pressed publish. And then I waited. And the silence after that? That’s where I’m sitting right now. That inbetween space where you’ve done the work…

Single Mum. One Day At A Time. What This Week In Kenya Actually Looked Like | Gikonyo Leah

I want to talk about what “one day at a time” actually looked like this week. Because it wasn’t cute. It wasn’t aesthetic. It was me standing in my kitchen calling another mum asking should we take them to school today or is it going to be another one of those days? 😳 If you’re in Kenya right now you know exactly what I mean. The Maandamano. The fuel prices. The streets. The Utumishi Girls High…

Cycle Syncing Saved My Sanity & Here's What I Actually Did Differently This Week | Gikonyo Leah

My period is in 2 days and my body has been sending me memos all week. 📩 Not asking. Sending. Very firmly. The memo says: slow down. clean the house. get the environment right. rest is coming and you need to prepare for it. And the version of me from a year ago would have ignored every single one of those memos and pushed through on coffee and willpower and the general chaos of life. The 2026…

What 4AM Has Been Teaching Me Pillar: Faith & Intentional Living | Believing

What 4AM – 5:25 AM-Ish Has Been Teaching Me And It’s Not What You Think | Gikonyo Leah I want to be honest about 4AM because I feel like the internet has made it into an aesthetic and it’s really not. 😅 4AM – 5:25 AM-Ish for me starts with resistance. Every single morning. My body doesn’t leap out of bed full of purpose and alignment. My body says why are we doing this again and pulls toward…

I Finished A Book Today & It Hit Different Pillar: Personal Development Unfiltered | Becoming

I Finished “How To Be A Female Player” & It Stayed With Me Longer Than I Expected | Gikonyo Leah Okay. I finished a book and I need to talk about it. 😅 How To Be A Female Player: The Fundamentals by Butta Fly Jonez. 17 pages. Literally 17 pages. And it took up residence in my brain for days after I closed it. I want to be upfront this is not a book I’d hand to everyone. Some of it I agreed…

What I'm Actually Building & Why Pillar: Real Entrepreneurship Journey | Building

What I’m Actually Building & Why It Feels Messy And Intentional At The Same Time | Gikonyo Leah I want to talk about Blu.ke today. Not the elevator pitch version. The real version. The version I think about at 4AM – 5:25 AM when everything is quiet and honest. Blu.ke right now feels like something I’m building from the inside out. 🌿 It’s not just a brand. It’s not just a business. It feels…

Proverbs 16:3 Is Not Just My Closing Line | It's My Whole Life | Gikonyo Leah

I want to tell you something honest about my anchor verse. I didn’t find it in church. I didn’t find it in a devotional. I found it at the end of 2025 when I sat down with an AI, planning for 2026, and I asked to give me a verse I can walk into this year with. Because if I’m being real, every new year scares me a little. The curiosity of it. The unknown of it. Another year under the sun what…

I Read My 2018 Blog & Didn't Recognise Her | Gikonyo Leah

I went back and read every post I wrote in 2018. And I sat there for a long time afterwards. Not cringing. Not laughing. Just feeling something quiet and heavy and tender all at once. I started this blog in March 2018. I was 20 years old, in school, working, in a relationship I thought was my whole world, trying to figure out YouTube, calling my little community the Slay Love Gang 💕 and…

Hi, I'm Leah. Let's Start Over. | Gikonyo Leah

I started this blog in 2018 when I was just putting thoughts somewhere because I didn’t know where else to put them. It’s 2026 now. I am not the same woman. So let’s start over. 👋🏾 Hi, I’m Leah. 👋🏾 I started this blog in 2018. I was younger, messier, and honestly just putting thoughts somewhere because I didn’t know where else to put them. If you scroll far enough back you’ll find posts that…

The Quarter That Tried to Break Me / March 31, 2026 | Leah Gikonyo

I’ve been sitting with this post for three weeks. Not drafting it. Just… sitting with it. Trying to figure out what to say and how to say it without it coming out wrong or sounding like a pity party or making me seem like I’m falling apart. But today is the last day of Q1 2026 and I woke up to a rejection email, my period just started, and I figured if not now, when? So here goes. The real…
