I worked so hard for people who did not know my worth. I have never touched alcohol in my life | LNN

He is popularly known as Charlie in the famous TV series Mother in law who plays a drunk distraught son, husband, and father but in real life, Patrick Oketch has never touched alcohol his entire life
On this episode of LNS rebuilding, he walks us through the dangers of working in an environment that does not recognize your worth, how his wife stuck with him through thick and thin, quitting his job to starting all over again

Didn't get a chance to say hi as I was trying to search his face in my head cz he looked like a guy I know. It's only after he passed me did I remember that, oh gosh it's Challie of mother inlaw. My take home; I finally have the courage to resign from my job. I don't need a plan, the know how, just my God and a goal, to which I find it in God. Lastly, one day I too may be on Lynn Ngugi show 🙈🙈🙈

    Very good content, great insights to learn from Patrick and Lynn. Do not allow people to box you, do not be afraid to quit for growth. I met charlie once at alliance girls drama competition and I was afraid to say hello. He always looked drunkard on TV and very serious in real life. This story has taught me to NEVER judge anyone for what they physically look like or do. Our society is rotten where people judge before hearing you out. It is a shame for people to call you Mlevi on the streets. I have been called "Madiamba," "mukuru" and now "bonga points" People should stop judging others harshly!!
