Welcome to The Sacred Darkness with Makena, where we embrace chaos, one shadow at a time. This isn't your typical self-help podcast.

Why Can't Failure Be An Option?

This episode explores a painful pattern: successful people taking their own lives because they can't reconcile 'failure' with their identity. I tell the detailed story of Kimiti Wanjaria, who at 29 was named to Forbes Africa 30 Under 30 for his ambitious real estate project. But between Forbes recognition and project completion lay seven years of mounting debt, court cases, and mental anguish. When he finally went home to his parents saying he'd 'hit rock bottom,' he was planning a comeback. But the shame was too much. He died by suicide at 39, the same year his beautiful estate finally went to market. This episode asks: Why can't failure be an option? How do we redefine success so the journey doesn't destroy us? And how do we build the safety nets that keep people alive during their seven-year struggles? If you're in the middle of your own 'failure,' this message is for you.

When the System Spits You Out: A Love Letter to the Lost

What happens when you fall off the conventional path? There's a ceremony for every milestone—graduation, engagement, promotion—but silence for the moments of struggle, failure, or choosing a different route. In this episode, Makena shares a personal story of leaving employment and plunging into seven years of what felt like chaos, shame, and being "stuck in quicksand". Discover why the space where you feel lost, broke, or behind is actually your sacred swamp—your chrysalis. This is an invitation to stop running on shame fuel , embrace the dark, and start building an internal support system that validates your worth simply because you exist. Setbacks aren't punishments; they're portals. Stop trying to get back on the conveyor belt and learn to redefine failure.
