Janet Mbugua opens up on quitting the bottle

A well-known media figure and mother of two, Janet Mbugua, recently gave insightful advice on her YouTube channel on making decisions for oneself, avoiding excessive pressure, and encouraging those who are battling addiction.
She expressed her excitement at achieving a key milestone — abstaining from alcohol since December 2021 — in an open conversation.
The TV girl stressed the significance of realizing that giving up particular habits or behaviors can be difficult.
She urged individuals to avoid applying undue pressure to both themselves and other people when making important decisions.
“I don’t drink, and December will mark two years since I made that choice. It’s a decision I believed was right for me. It’s something I may choose to return to in a year, a decade, or perhaps never. However, I am not imposing any unrealistic expectations on myself. Making a decision like this can be difficult, but in life, everything can be challenging. It’s about choosing your battles,” Janet shared.
During the discussion, Janet also cautioned against tempting individuals who are striving to overcome specific addictions.
Drawing from her own experience, she urged empathy and understanding.
“I’ve lived a life where I can compare what life was like with that decision and life without it. When you’re trying to cultivate discipline, it may not come naturally to everyone. Sometimes we desire things that come effortlessly to us. To those who have chosen to quit drinking, please refrain from pressuring them to take a drink. You never know what they had to overcome to make that choice. Let them be. When I say I don’t drink, it’s not a flex; it’s merely the reality I decided for myself.”
Janet also discussed the difficulties in sticking to a regular fitness schedule.
She discussed the need of persistence and learning to deal with life’s unforeseen setbacks while revealing that she works out at home owing to time constraints.
“Reaching your fitness goals or any personal goals takes time and dedication. Sometimes, life throws curveballs that force you to adjust your plans. The key is to keep going, even if it means adapting your workout routine to your current circumstances,” Janet noted.
Janet lit the screens for her presenting skills on television, where she anchored prime time news on Citizen TV.

VIDEO: Panic, laughter at President Ruto’s near fall as he planted trees

President William Ruto found himself on the edge of a fall on Monday at the National Tree Planting Day celebration at the Kiu Wetland in Makueni County.
The unexpected event, which lasted for a few seconds, occurred when the President bent to place soil around the base of the recently planted tree.
His gumboot-clad foot sank into the muddy, water-filled depression where the tree had been planted as the ground, softened by the previous rains, betrayed his step.
The President was a few steps away from his aides, who moved quickly and urgently to break the possible stumble as the President struggled to restore his balance.
