YUMMY MUMMY REVEALS COUPLES THERAPY SAVED HER MARRIAGE

Content creator Joan Murugi popularly known as Yummy Mummy has shared how couples therapy saved her marriage.

Speaking at a TV interview, she said they has been able to resolve a lot of their issues through therapy, “Him and I have very different approaches to conflict. I am an extremely confrontational person and for him, he will just not say anything. It has taken a lot of therapy and a lot of communicating for us to get to a point where I told him, when you withdraw from me and withhold communication it hurts me and he was like well if you come shouting I feel disrespected, so its work in process,” she said

Adding, “But we are getting better, before we would go for two weeks without talking to each other. But our therapist told us not to let the sun set before we solve our issues even if we stay up the whole night. Couple’s therapy has saved my marriage. You can always call someone in the family but they will always be one sided. A pastor is good but you can’t talk to them about everything. For me therapy is an open space where you can objectively have your issues sorted out. Save your marriage and go for therapy.”

The content creator also opened up about her decision to permanently keep her husband, Zack Munyi off social media, revealing that it was a mutual agreement. “In the past two months we decided that he is no longer going to be on my platform anymore and I deleted every picture of him on my page and people thought we had broken up. It was just a decision that we made because for me, I show my life but for him we decided that he can support me but from behind the scenes and we didn’t want it to affect his actual work,” stated Joan.

She also explained why she changed her brand name from Yummy Mummy to Murugi Munyi. She says she was forced to switch from Yummy Mummy because she missed some advertising jobs because of her association with motherhood content. “Yummy Mummy grew much bigger than I had expected and at some point I wanted to change to my actual name because I felt it was boxing me in and a lot of people and brands used to see me as a mum but my content is a lot more than that,” said Joan.
