“I am 40, I am single, and I am childless.” I said it, and I didn’t die, and that always made me tear up. I used to wonder, how am I 40 and I don’t have a child? How am I 40, and I am single? How am I 40, and I am alone?
“Listen, if I am completely honest with you guys, if I had gotten married again, I would have been divorced. Because the lessons never stop. I am grateful for the journey, I am grateful for where I am at, and I am grateful that I am 40. “I look at my life like I am 40 and a boss, have built an empire, am one of the most resounding voices in Africa, have a love of family, and am in great health. I love what I do, and I am not waking up miserable, thinking that I am still here.
“You need to sit with your truth, and when you do so, you can’t shame the shameless.”
