We are back after quite a break. In this episode we catch up and dive deep into the shallow waters of what life has been since we bonded over at the Bones Podcast . also I graduated guys!!!! and so listen to my unemployed tales as we talk vision boards and goals for this new year.

On this episode, we delve into the previously proposed Reproductive Healthcare act 2019 by Senator Susan Kihika, and we get down to its particulars, and why there's a need  for this act of parliament. We debunk the narrative that motherhood is the crowning of all womanhood. Wehave a first book club meeting, that actually lasts so short you won't mind it.

Cheers

Hey Bones, I'll definitely find a better name for you lovelies, I have always wondered about my role in the climate crisis, and the intersection of this crisis, that is already with us, with the subject of human rights. In this episode we delve into that and I tell you of a vegan bulldog.

In this episode I share a conversation I had with one of the many people I look up to (Trisha Shetty), of some details I have found helpful in my journey as a feminist. A disclaimer is that I am not an educator, this talk is a compilation of my thoughts and my take on things as a learning and at times struggling feminist. Thanks , and do engage with us, leave us a comment , on whichever platform you get your podcast from and on our Instagram page too. Cheers!!

In this episode I let you in on a secret theory of the workings of my white blood cells, It is very serious business, wear your thinking caps into this one. I have so much time on my hands I tried a hand at being a eulogy critic, like how low can I go, very low I tell you,  to ensure that we all embrace the idea of life and our lives and all that we have to offer. This episode focusses on how we handle grief and loss, and how we celebrate our loved ones who have departed from this world, It's not a manual of do's and don'ts but a conversation of grace, love and resilience(of some kind). We talk of Janet Bett Karoney( The lady whose eulogy went viral because she wrote it herself) and a couple other things...white blood cells. Cheers!!

First off, apologies for the background noise, I really tried to work off of this episode but you know kids, even a software can't seem to know what to do with them. Today we talk FOMO, and I tell you guys about my 'Kipchoge' days, a whole runner and a track star, I can't even keep a straight face typing this. In this episode I talk what it feels like to see people doing things you thought you ought to be doing(turning to a grammar lesson guys) please dive in and send messages to our instagram @allmybonespodcast if either of those things resonate with you , tell me what FOMO got you doing or are you a staunch member of the JOMO, those that take pleasure in missing out. Cheers.
