Esther Kazungu is a Digital Content Creator known for her humorous digital content that touches on politics and social issues.

My biggest regret is not travelling more. I always thought I needed a lot of money to travel, but I found out you don't. 

Every time someone asks me, 'How is marriage?' I always don't know how to answer. Like, what kind of answer are you expecting? What do you want me to say?

What I have learned about marriage is that it can humble you, but it takes a lot of compromise and meeting each other halfway.

I met my husband (James Kibunja) in a dance class. He was part of the crew. We started talking, developed a friendship, and now here we are.

Ooh, yes, I am very romantic, but behind closed doors. I feel so shy in public. My husband and I don't do PDAs (public display of affection) and stuff like that.

The best gift I have ever received from my husband has to be food and chocolates. That's the way to my heart.

I am not a flower person, flowers aren't my favourite gifts.

My husband is the biggest spender. When it comes to money, I am a miser.

If I could level up one aspect of my life by decreasing another, that would be decreasing my appetite for food and increasing my appetite for more knowledge.

In a past interview with Nation, Kazungu pointed out, "One major challenge with content creation is that it requires consistency and good mental health. If I am not OK, I usually take a break because it affects my creativity.

I have been accused of doing more South Africa-themed skits than local ones, but hey! I have been creating Kenyan content since 2016 but only got local recognition in 2020 when I started doing the South African ones.

If social media users would post the low moments of their lives, I don’t think social media platforms would be as popular as they are now. But, again, users would be mentally healthy, content and at peace.

Adding, "The most fearless thing I have ever done is speaking up on injustices and topics other people wouldn’t talk about on their platforms."
