"I was able to reconcile with my father when I was two years old. My mother took him to live in Eldoret after my father's death, then started a business." "We lived with my mother for a time before she passed away when I was eight. My mother had control over all assets, including our marriage dowry."
Nyabate described how her mother's actions created lasting emotional scars, including a traumatic incident where her mother failed to return home after a trip, leading to the discovery of her death under suspicious circumstances.
"One day my mother said she would return, but she didn't. The next day we were told she had been found dead, apparently murdered." "This act alone led to the loss of our family land, money, and even our marriage dowry."

Nyabate also recounted how her mother's actions during a medical emergency left her feeling abandoned, despite the family's efforts to seek help.
"My mother's illness required immediate attention, but no one came to help despite our calls. I was left to deal with the crisis alone." "I carried the burden of this trauma for years, but I eventually found strength to pursue education and build my own business."
Despite these challenges, Nyabate has established herself as a successful entrepreneur, having founded her own company.
