“For the last three years, I have been enthusiastic to leverage on my START & IMPROVE YOUR BUSINESS skills a discipline that M_OliveS Mentoring Consultants helped to upscale when they offered training to Business Mentors who had been contracted by Capital Strategies Kenya Ltd in cooperation with KCB Group a bank to train ans mentor youth for MSME ,2024_2025 program.

Besides, it has been through MoliveS that I have been able to integrate my counseling and mediation skills to offer therapy sessions to those within my reach through church programs ;for instance have been helping the vulnerable in the society at KAG CHURCH _NYERI

This fine Wednesday, we recognize Coach Ann Gathegu – a woman whose journey reflects resilience, purpose, and transformation.

Testimony – Coach Ann Gathegu:

“When I joined the 7-week mentorship program at M_OliveS Mentoring Consultants , I was already walking a deeply personal journey of rebuilding my life after loss. I was a widow, a mother of three daughters, and a professional woman navigating grief while trying to remain strong for everyone around me. What I did not fully realize then was that I was standing at the edge of transformation.

The mentorship program did more than equip me with skills: it gave structure, language, and confidence to the purpose that had been quietly forming within me.

Through the GROW Model, I learned how to guide conversations with clarity and intention. It sharpened my ability to help widows move from emotional overwhelm to practical action.

Through Active Listening, I discovered the power of presence. Many widows do not need quick solutions; they need to feel seen, heard, and understood. The program deepened my ability to hold space without rushing healing.

Through Appreciative Inquiry, I shifted from focusing only on what was broken to helping women rediscover what still remains: their strength, resilience, skills, faith, and capacity to rebuild.

And through Emotional Intelligence, I learned to navigate not only my own grief triggers, but also the complex emotional landscapes of the women I now serve. I became more aware, more compassionate, and more intentional in my leadership.

These tools did not remain theory.

They became the foundation upon which I wrote my book, Grace in the Ashes, a deeply personal and practical guide for widows learning to rebuild their lives emotionally, spiritually, and financially.

In Grace in the Ashes, I combine my lived experience as a widow, my professional background as a Certified Public Accountant, and the coaching skills refined through the MoliveS mentorship program. The book walks widows through the seasons of devastation, desperation, exploration and ultimately creation, helping them move from survival to purpose.

Today, I use the very tools I learned to help widows:

• Clarify their goals

• Make sound financial decisions

• Process grief with emotional awareness

• Rediscover purpose after loss

The mentorship did not just shape my skillset, it strengthened my calling. Through grace, structure, and intentional guidance, I now help widows rebuild their lives with confidence and hope.”
