This is such a timely read .Evelyn’s story is living testimony .Now more than ever,the girl child in Kenya and in Africa needs the message of hope carried in this book.That yes it is possible to reach for and grab the stars .That they can be whatever they put their mind to. That they do not always need a godfather or a stepping stone to achieve their goals,besides what they already readily have,a dream.That they can dare to dream and it will happen. I hope and pray the book may reach as many of our daughters as possible.

Breaking the Barriers: Empowered Girlchild is an inspiring book that shines a light on the challenges and victories of girls who are defying societal constraints. It promotes the belief that true empowerment starts with shattering stereotypes, questioning cultural norms, and viewing education as a powerful tool for change.
The book illustrates how confidence, mentorship, and equal opportunities can transform young girls into the leaders of tomorrow. It encourages readers to recognize every girl not as fragile or secondary, but as a source of strength, capable of transforming their communities.
With heartfelt stories and actionable insights, the book urges a collective effort to parents, teachers, and society alike, to foster environments where girls can flourish. Ultimately, it’s more than just a book; it’s a rallying cry for equality, dignity, and freedom.
Congratulations Evelyn,great inspiration.

Evelyne Mwakina’s memoir, “Breaking the Barrier” is an important contribution to our body of knowledge; it is a story that will not only inspire the girl child, but any child; it is a story of a girl born and raised in poverty who was able to overcome childhood hardships, excel in education, and pursue a stellar career in the Kenyan public service at the Kenya Broadcasting Corporation rising through the ranks to become the national broadcaster’s Corporate Affairs Manager; it is a memoir I recommend to everyone; Khainga O’Okwemba

Everyone knows Evelyne’s professional credentials are impeccable, but this book shows you the why. It’s one thing to see her expertly manage a corporate crisis; it’s another to read about the young girl from Taita who had to fight for her seat at the table before she even knew what the table was. The determination she shows in here? I see that same fire in her every day at work. We’re incredibly proud, but honestly, not surprised. This was always in her

In her book Breaking Barriers, Evelyn demonstrates that it’s possible for women to realize their full potential. If one has Faith in God, honours and respects God, family and self then the sky is the limit. A great motivation for women and girls to keep the Faith so they too can grow and reach great heights in true humility.

Everlyne has literally placed her lamp on the table according to requirements of the scripture which contrasts the action of hiding the lamp inside a basket or under the bed as explained in Luke 8:16, 11:33 and Matthew 5:15.

Her light now shines through her book aptly titled “Breaking the Barriers,” which in my view I regard as a vicarious action that will endure for generations to come, always holding up the mirror to the target population of young girls and women who continue to search for inspiring personal testimonies and life accounts of heroines like Everlyne Mwakina.

Every man and woman who have little girls growing up in their family must have this book readily available in their home library.

I know Mwakina’s work will bring forth much fruit, through the sharing.

Hopefully, this will also inspire other faith driven writings by both the young and the old, who have been waiting on the wings for an inspiration.

Breaking Barriers By Evelyn is a deeply inspiring and motivating account of her journey from abscurity to the woman of substance she is today! Her quiet but ambitious pursuit to maximize her God-given potential has been adequately captured in the pages of this work and challenges the reader that who she has become can also be attained by anyone who will follow her inspiring example as recorded on the pages of her book. I highly recommend it!!! Rev. George Opiyo, Dallas, GA, USA.

I enjoyed the read particularly seeing the journey of her life from the point of little material resources but in the midst of so much family and human capital and resources. The beauty of a big family and how a member steps in and out and makes contribution in the journey of another.

It was interesting to see how the determination and focus to do better and be better was a driving force to achieving success; and also how having Jesus Christ as the centre of the journey has made it all possible.

Thank you for sharing your Journey!
