Communication is a very important aspect of every successful relationship

You combine writing, counselling and speaking skills together, what is actually your passion?
Yes, I am a writer, counsellor and speaker, who has also gained over 17 years work experience across several customer service and human resource roles. However, my passion is helping people; particularly women to discover how to live purposeful and successful lives. I have been blessed with opportunities to speak at women retreats, youth conferences and marriage seminars. I love sharing practical Biblical principles because I believe all we need to have a successful marriage and even life can be found in the Bible. I recently published a book on marriage.

As an author, what inspires you to write?

I get my inspiration from the Bible and from the world around me. I could be reading a Bible verse and get some insights from it or I might observe something around me and write it down. I’m constantly learning.  I believe that there is always more to learn and as I keep learning from the Bible, nature, people, events and so on, I keep getting inspired.

What motivated you to write a book on marriage?

I believe the society will be better if marriages work – we would have happier and more productive people and avoid all the negativity that divorce brings to families and the society at large.

I wrote this book to help provide a resource for would-be wives and wives. This book; The Marriage Recipe, provides the reader with practical Biblical tips that when applied will help women improve in their marriages.

What are the things you think people should consider when choosing their life partners?

There are several things to consider when choosing a life partner, the most important factor I think is compatibility. By that I mean, you should be able to answer the following questions in the affirmative; Do you share the same beliefs and priorities – about God, marriage, family, finances and so on? Do you have life visions and interests that can coexist? For instance, if one partner’s vision is to become a missionary to an unreached people’s group, the other should either share that vision or not have one that is opposed to it. Do you have chemistry; are you sexually attracted to each other? Are you able to communicate with one another? Communication is a very important aspect of every successful relationship. You shouldn’t marry someone you either can never understand or who never understands you.
