- Beldina Kirito might never set foot in Karen Estate again.
She claims that the residents there made her life a living hell after realizing she was the new business owner in town.
Her mistake, starting a Six Million fine dining restaurant in a residential area.
Today, she is servicing loans left, right and centre.
She opens up to Lynn Ngugi on how an agent tricked her into thinking she could open a business in that estate, having to close down the restauraunt and finding the strength to start again

Belinda is a great baker she has taught me so much through her TH-cam channel . Lord I fell her like it happened to me
Oh Beldina, you speak for a lot of us. Business in Kenya is not for the faint hearted. I love your resilience. Thank you for holding up even when you could have easily given up.Thank you for being the guardian angel in this field.
That fine Dining belonging to Beldina in the heart of Karen in her own property this time!!! I am coming to dine and hang out with you girl!! You are your father's daughter and Nothing or no one can stop that. Our daddy Yahweh loves you. You are an inspiration and a Force.
Keep going Beldina, there is no room for giving up in achieving your dream. We fail forward..to achieve great things..
Only God who can protect you from the enemy, mummy continue chasing your dreams, this is one of the many battles face,just continue trusting God ONLY 🙏 ❤
I lost 3m on a land that I bought from scandalous real estate company.I got stressed , and depressed.I realized that being stressed and depressed won't change a thing .Woke up, dusted myself and started afresh .Not yet there but now on a right track!I thank God!
I needed this today.Thank you
You are strong...mimi i cant move on unless i got the money thru corruption....i will deal with them 1 by 1 by the time im done.....itarudi yote na interest juu....
Can you please name the real estate firm.......So sorry for your loss
@@shioshoMuddy kenya hakuna juatice...who will help you??
Hugs
This woman is resilient, smart, business oriented, a mother and a wife. God bless women 🙏🏾
This is one reason I'm afraid to invest 😂 just saving
There is a reason you found the premises empty in the first place. It looks like the former hotel owners were chased too and the landlord was not transparent. I know resident politics. If the residents don't want you, it is impossible to succeed.
A river cuts through rock not because of its power but because of its persistence, go girl and happy life comes after you tie your life to a goal not to people wish you the best and keep moving....
Thank you so much Lynn for giving me a chance to share my story and Inspire someone at the verge of giving up. I have strong faith and hope I shall for sure rise again.
Thank you so much team Lynn for your Much love and words of encouragement
Blessings 🙏
May God see you through. Thank you for coming out to encourage us 😘
I am inspired. May you find strength to find your footing and may you excel
soon you will rise again my former class teacher..remain strong 💪🏾
I admire your resilience
Infact I'm encourage by your story 😭😭
Oh Beldina teacher...I trained my wedding cakes master class with Beldina's delicacies, at the time I had been frustrated after being jobless two years after my graduation. The only work that I got is cleaning and clearing bushes in a certain project. I love baking so I knew it's time to turn the hobby to an income. I talked to her and she allowed me to pay the tuition fee in installments then start classes afterwards. I know I trained with the best 🥰 and now a proud owner of mimo'scakery 🥰. So resilient, so selfless, you will rise again teacher 💗
Such beautiful words.
How much is the school fees please
@@agnetahkuya183 kindly get in contact with Beldina's delicacies pages, they have the contacts there you can chat better with them because there are different classes wether beginner or master course.
Thank you for your reply I will
Everytime I watch this kindof stories I learn that the biggest flex you can have as a person is to stop this pitty parting games, sympathy and wanting people to feel sorry for you ,always straighten the crown once you feel it falling off and keep moving, thanks to you Lyn for this stories it's the impact for me, not forgetting I love the lady's energy 6millon and still she had to smile all through big up to her, and the circle around her
Strength of a real Woman. You score a distinction in patience and persistence. Great lady
With all the pain behind this life ordeal, the best I carry home is to be resilient and intentional with whatever life presents. The mystery of the seed, when it's buried to die, it revamps and bores more fruits. Thanks, Lynn for bringing such an inspiring person on the show.
The best comment 💯.
This story just came at the right time now that am stressed cause of my business 😢😢 I pray for better days ahead.
Thanks Lyn.
God is still on the throne,,,no matter what u are going through
Me to! Don't give up God is in controll
Me too,2 months old,no giving up
Hugs
6 Million 🤔 Jesus😭😭😭😭
Beldina revisit the Karen dream tena.,This time get friends who can fast and pray with you. Cry to God like you’ve never done before. Let Lord God fight your battle. Listen baby girl don’t use your understanding. Let God do this or let God speak on your behalf
I totally agree with you.
This young woman is going places. I'm so impressed by her efforts.
I love how aggressive Beldina is and so full of Energy, thank you Lyn for creating such a platform for us to learn.
Psalm 49:20
"People who have wealth but lack understanding are like beasts."
May God give you back that which was destroyed/ ruined.
Lynn you inspire me a lot and l promise you one day l will be walking in your shoes,from Grass to grace you are my motivation every single day through ua life story to the woman u have become.may God continue blessings you forever Lnny
I can feel the pain in her voice. The biggest mistake she made is starting a business with loans.Start small and then grow from there.Wish your the best , keep dreaming and best is yet to come.
A big shout out to the good friends who stood by her side. May their cups of blessings be filled till they overflow.
Manze this Kenya they judge people how they look they don't know what the person can do
I hate safaricom from deep down inside yaani they closed my company with no reason yaani no reason and that was my first company na Mimi ni mwanafunzi I try ends meet kampuni hata haikukaa 3months sikuwa nimemaliza kulipa loan like January has been hell to me I hate safaricom 😭😭😭 for killing my dream
Manzee I had more than 100 youths wenye walikuwa wanafaidika from this company
Worst thing is when I went to the office no one wanted to help me I decided to give up
😭😭But I will never forget how kenyans rich people judge people and decide to close someone is business with no reason probably no reason 🤔🤔🤔 I regret saana
Waaaah. This lady's zeal is on another notch. I love her. Thanks Lynne for giving her a platform. She has inspired me.
My goodness,talk about "the iron woman" the resilience, the aggression,the strength, she's a gem,,,may the Almighty do great and wonderful things in your life. What an inspiration
One day those same rude residents will worship the ground you walk on.They are not the only ones entitled to money and money is a visitor. It's comes and leaves. Be strong.You are an inspiration.what they didn't know is they can chase you away but they couldn't take your skills set and your blessings.
All high end estates do this. Never invest in those areas until you clear with them. You will lose money for nothing. As a matter of fact most gated communities are very strict about allowing outsiders to carry out business in their areas.
i love you
True Isaiah 60: 14
O how I jump as I hear you Plaxedes that they will worship the ground you walk on. Particularly when I know who’s child you are. I love your courage Bladina. You have such an amazing husband. Stick together and you will see what The Lord Will Do.
Gal u have moved me. Im encouraged. Your unity with your husband has humbled me. God bless u. I need such a supportive spouse we walk together
Lynn is an amazing soul very rare to find her channel is the best in 254
Ya'll say goals? Beldina is goals just by herself! Yaani, from the attitude, graciousness...this is why she is so blessed!
I'm in awe ❤ the fact that she and her husband have remained steadfast and true to "for better for worse" restores my hope in marriages. That's my true takeaway today.
We come in hoping to learn something but we reap lessons plus blessings at LMS.
We are on our way Beldina.
When i sit back and reflect on how we 'average' Kenyans suffer doing business it's not a show in the park.It is hard..daily you even walk in town and see how the CITY COUNTY officers carry people's property it frustrates my heart.We will be there one day.We are not giving up anytime soon.Big up Beldina
Darling, Karen ni motto ya kuotea mbali.
It hurts that kuna mitaa you cant do your biz Just because u need to know who is who in that particular community and they have a final say . see how the lady lost everything just bcz watu around hawakutaki na hawakutambui hii upuzi aki
@@nellymatalanga5033 Honestly, most gated community estates have rules only that officials get bribed to look the other way. The case in Karen is understandable and that's why it's glory still lives, property value is high etc you can't let all kind of businesses mushroom within residential areas and expect sanity. This led was misled by agent & Landlord, she also lacked viral information on the area. I don't think residents are to blame.
@@joanmiksabel3598 I get u unfortunately most gated rich communities are owned by foreigners and afew locals who's family wame kuwa rich kitambo .we all know mtu ametoka chini akiomoka tu and wants to be on the otherside they look dwn on him/her. As in hata awe na hela kivipi being accepted ni atumie nguvu n alot of cash then at the end of the day she/he loses everythng . Just wondering tht plc had aka hotel the woman just wanted to do the same thing na fine dining nt disco n kelele bt thy never accepted .anyway walimtia harasa there's little she can /could do #sad
@@nellymatalanga5033 wow! Your way of looking at things is sad. Kenyans are majority everywhere mummy safe for un/ngo''s expatriate dominated areas. Furthermore, also a hotel in a residential area can pose insecurity.. and if its their rules as residents then must be respected. Her only mistake which she has at the end accepted is "lack of due diligence" which a commercial lawyer would have provided. The properties in Karen are damn expensive and security is one of the reasons. Accept reality. Let them enjoy their wealth!!
Todays show is full of lessons😍😍: Never give up in life. "You must tell yourself, no matter how hard it gets, i'm going to make it.
Exactly Doreen, no matter how hard it gets, you are going to make it:)
Amen and Amen
Amen
Amen
Those Friends the Lord bless them and keep them. Offering kind hands to each other purely we can do more.
Shame on every resident that stopped this dream
I hope that everyone who aided in the destruction of the hotel will live forever...
Funny how the rich live in fear.... such a terrible state of life.
Surely, every estate has its rules. Sometimes researching shouldn't be ignored. All said, the agent and landlord knew about, she was the only victim.
Woishe the pain in her voice, i cant hold tears. May God of restoration be with her
Oh Beldina I am listening to you n am seeing myself,I gave my hubby million of shillings to do business, he changed the initial plan along the way..he lost everything am left paying the loans unfortunately my marriage went down I couldn't stand
Her story has really encouraged me and inspired me. She is a very hardworking and resilient woman.
To me the lesson learned is that trusting and believing people by the word of mouth could cost you sooner or later esp if it involves hard earned money . I wonder whether the business that folded prior to Beldina was because of the same residence pressure group. The landlord ought to be sued for crime of omission and fraud. City bylaws are very clear on what business can be set where. But in kenya because of corruption people are able to be hoodwinked..."lipa chai nifunge macho" later system catch up with and things might not work in a person's favour. Or we fail to investigate in fear that others will steal our business idea or opportunity. A fellow was convinced and bought our plot fraudulently including a fake title deed thinking the liquidators at the land office will live for ever. Now, we're in court to determine the rightful owner. Corruption is a cancer that has sickened Kenya to the bone. Govt systems(Justice, lands,transport,edu,health,security, commerce,labour,agriculture etc) have failed hardworking Kenyans when a person considers how govt officials collude to sell purported govt documents to make a quick buck. Sadly they say "Ignorance is not a defense in a court of law"
Zoning laws is where the catch is. Did the property owner complete the process of conversion from residential to commercial? Perhaps her lawyer should look into this. I suspect the owner is hiding some information. I'm truly sorry Beldina.
As sad as it is, it's would be good to find that out, so sorry about it.
My thought exactly…
It's fitina. Si u heard there is another wedding facility nearby...why couldn't they rezone this facility as well
@@thecargotsold that other facility has no issues with commercial usage. Remember she said her landlady said that meetings had happened to convert the property to commercial use. But the legal document confirming the same is unavailable. The landlady knew this all along.
She ought to sue her stupid lawyer!
Oh my God! This is exactly what i am going through today. I was so low this morning from loosing in a business i had invested so much. 150k loan and other loans where suplliers are on my neck and i thought i just want to disappear. But when my friend sent me this link to watch this, good Lord, this is so what i needed. Beldina, God bless you. You don't know how much just by sharing your story has done for me. I had give up all hope and now i have that fighting spirit in me awakened. May God's favour trace you. We shall overcome.
We share the same... It's very tough
Beldina your resilience is in another level… How I wish the systems that govern the process of opening such business are well laid out to avoid that happening to others in the future.
Interaction ya lynn na guest is soo inspiring look at her dressing code when it's going to the village she dress to that level ❤️❤️
Hello madam Belinda ,am one of your TH-cam student ,I enjoy your baking class ,may our God continue to blessed you.thank you so much Lynn for bringing her .
Wow wow the interview is so lit,,, this woman is so passionate, aggressive, focused in short she is an inspiration to many.. Lesson learnt never give up,,, no matter what,,, what do people bring others down as if the world belongs to them woiye,,,
This lady is a jewel.. she has a great destiny.. when God is entrusting you with something he has to refine you... Only vessels of honour go through fire
Those residents wa Karen that did this will pay na machozi mingi. Wivu ni mbaya. Keeping someone working so hard from rising up. Wacha zenu zianze kuporomoka one by one. Mungu halali. Malipo ni hapa duniani
It's pure jealousy simple.
This woman is so strong❤.
Have learnt that you forget the past that makes you cry & focus on the present that makes you smile
What an interview with a purpose.
I feel so encouraged to face the world.
Wow. Beldina you are very and I repeat very courageous. All the best.
You are strong Beldina and you will definitely own that hotel!!!Thank you for this eye opening conversation for me...I hopeto own a business too
That smile when I see a new episode ☺️❤️❤️💖Congrats Lyn
Wow we needed this interview. Good job Beldina, you are an inspiration. Thank you Lynn! Excellent work as always.
I have learnt alot from this lady,never wallow in ur worries, stand up and think of what you can do to change the situation...kuddos mama
I can’t finish watching this😭😭May God bless you Sister and return More of whatever you lost.
Ooh,this came at the right time in my situation ,so encouraging and educative
Beldina. A real motivation and inspiration to my wife. #the cake business.
I somehow understand her pain. Stay strong girl. I feel like I could cry and roll on the ground for the world to hear me out. It is unfortunate that the world is extremely unfair. But again don't worry dear. You will pick up. You are not dead. Things will be fine.
Am proud of you Beldina and I admire your resilience. May God keep showing up in all situations in your life, because even the strength to push the way you are, comes from Him. All the best.
The kind of interviews I wouldn't want to miss. Very encouraging and informative.
What an Amazing Lady - Bless Her 🙏
This lady might not know it but she just changed me...ill never be the same again after all ive picked up from this story....this is a real proverbs 31 woman...
So true
I was also caught up in some nasty loans last year during covid. Lost a lot of weight from sleepless nights. The story is relatable
God will restore it in 2022
Currently drepessed no sleep... I stare like a zombie lost alot during covid, marriage at rocks..No jobs forthcoming and yet have 2 small babies.. Have just given up on life 😢😢
My teacher and mentor in baking you will rise again. We pray that the future brings joy
This lady is so strong and resilient,thanks for sharing
I want to sit one day where Beldina has sat and share my story of success and encourage someone...aaah big up Beldina 😊Am changed!
Encourage me
I've learned alot from this story,,,,,,Beldina is a good communicater,,,,she's has an amazing soul
May the Lord restore everything that was taken away. Beldina you are a victor.
Very inspiring.. with this story I have learnt the art of two people doing things together, being deliberate to conquer the giants in their lives and with this is a sure bet things must work..such spirit can only be found in an enviro where one has a supporting system which is lacking in most of us,I have been challenged.
Thank you Beldina for sharing so openly. We have learnt so much from you.
Your interviews are very inspiring madam Lynn 👍
Such a pure soul. This lady will go places.May God keep you!.
Always ready @1000hrs. Me here to watch this new episode of LNS, Dress code on point and both the host and the guest are lovely 😍
Thank you so much Mouline:) We appreciate the love and support
Yaani Karen can bring so much frustration to such a beautiful soul. God will judge them accordingly. You can't instill so much pain and go scot-free.
Those Karen 'people' should relocate to another planet outside this world. Who are they to frustrate our sister like this ? Shame on them.
Wah! Quite an inspiring story!!! Beldina YOU ARE GOING FAR!! I believe you've encouraged many business men and women! Keep up the faith!
Waoh, what a strong lady we have here. God bless you and your family and may your dreams come true.
Woow I love this girl ..how resilience she is ...best interview ever ..am encouraged
It was not all about your business but seems like the owner of that place is being g fought so that he/she gets disappointed ,frustrated and sell the place. Someone is after that home and doing anything by all means to get it. Karen has so many businesses ,restaurants within the residence that yours was not the only one . You suffered because of the war against the owner . GOD will lift you up
The owner was not honest, you mean all this rules he doesn't know.
@@paulysutsiey649 agents too
Exactly. If she put God first, she could have won the battlefield. Also sometimes defeat is there if the owners, the agents, are demonic oriented so that war needs a stronger power. These may don't know....
@@shixsshixs4191 Dod you even watch this video!!!? Prayers were held and the launching done by pastors. Stop bringing God into this matter. Such regulations on gated Community is normal. Karen is not where you just come in and do what you want not to mention many other upmarket residential areas. Look at what Kilimani & Lavington has turned into? Sometimes it's better to be reasonable than just condemn.
@@joanmiksabel3598 that is how I have reasoned. I have not condemned like you put it. Read my text to understand well.
Am so encouraged, Beldina you are great 👍 thanks Lynn your shows are very inspiring 😀 ❤ 👏
Pole, sana dada. Your reflections are deep, yes from noviciate to knowledgeable you will do it.
This has been very helpful.
Thanks Beldine and Lynn.
Nice show
This is amazing advice to all awesome hand working people I'm so blessed
Big up Beldina! You have really encouraged me👏👏👏A story of resilience
This really unfair,
Imagine our fellow Kenyans saying Kenya inawenyewe.
Some of us are just like tenants in own country.
God intervene please.
What a hardworking soul
It's real challenges come to strengthen us..You really impact lives mammy
To those who kill others dreams we just leave them for God.thank you lynn i will visit her shop coz we neighbour dagoretti.from mogadishu here getting you very well lynn.
The lessons i take home with me after this episodes is worthwhile.much blessings lynn....Beldina is much a go getter i wonna be such a woman
This woman is FIRE!!! I love seeing strong Kenyan women that refuse to give up. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. Mami, you are a SIMBA!!!!! I have saved this video. Thanks Lynn for this interview.
I WENT TO SHOOT MUSIC VIDEO IN A RICH RESIENTS AND A KENYAN LIKE ME,MU MAMA ,SHE REPORTED US TO THE WATCHMAN THAT WE ARE RECORDING HER FENCE,IMAGINE TO OUR SUPRICE AN INDIAN FAMILY TOOK US IN THEIR BIG APARTMENT AND TOLD US TO SHOOT VIDEO INSIDE FOR FREE,THEY PROVIDED ELECTRICITY AND ALL WE NEEDED,THATS WHEN I KNEW OUR OWN KENYAN PEOPLE ARE THE ONES SPOILING THE LOVE WE HAVE,MAY GOD HUMBLE THOSE RICH PEOPLE WHO HAVE NO HEART
I am greatly inspired. She is just one of a kind, very smart woman
Here for some motivation... thanks for inspiring me 💕💕💕
Ingekuwa wazungu owners gova na residents hawange complaon. African is just exhausting!
Wow ... ...this is an example of proverbs 31 divas... And am highly motivated through her experience.....May God continue to expand you
...This is so timely thank you @Beldina for the great business advice and this too shall pass you are so resourceful
I love this lady.... God bless her and together with the family

Beldina you shall get to where you wanted to be. Iam so humbled to have met you at the saloon in waithaka and you have such a nice soul. May God grant all your desire and dream. All the best Beldina Keep Pushing.
Be very intentional in your pursuits.Thanks Beldina..My cake teacher... Strength mamma... strength..
Communicate and seek for help , that's the best, thank you Beldina and Lynn much love💞💞😘😘🙏🙏🌹🌹
Your first mistake was to into contract when the owner notified you that the area was not officially gazette for a hotel. The owner scammed your money. Always make sure the area is gazette for business before u get started. This is a prime area where residents have a big say as to what business goes around. Their main concern was not just the noise but the traffick and all the human activities of in and out.
I have had the pleasure to meet Beldina and out of my interaction with her she's amazing and one who inspires.
Ghai! Am crying 😭😭 of sh250000" thousand"I lost in business thinking I have lost alot🙆🙆 Lynn I tell you am not crying any more if someone can lost millions and still strong
I also lost 400k 3yrs ago and I’ve never overcame it but thru this story hopefully I’ll pull through
Hehe.. I lost almost 500k in a high end movie shop n gaming spot wacha tu.. I hit rockbottom, like all friends vanished
Hee beldina you are Amazing and strong woman.....am learning not to let myself sink thank you girl God bless you n increase you financially. 😊 LNS thanks for bringing her 🙏 💕
The worse thing is betrayal from ur own pple. God will restore all what was lost Beldina. Keep ur head up, for the haters, remember....what goes around comes around.
You both look amazing ❤🌻🔥
Nooo you can clearly hear her that she was lied to and also didn't carry due diligence before moving in. Even Hostels for university students in karen is 15-18k a month, paid quarterly not monthly.. Those residents are the landlords are mincing millions! Have frustrated investors constructing Hostels in the area because will put them out of business. Students intervened for qwetu to initiate their project. Ni wabaya sana. Its not just insecurity, selfishness. How about the Hostels they own in the area!!!?
Amen
Rich people and their stupid bureaucracy, kujipenda unconditionally hii dunia ni ya mungu sio yenyu ...God will restore you back he will plant you deep that no one will be able to up root you again
The challenge was big but you have overcome and going far. What the enemy intended for bad is turning to be a blessing in disguise only time. Thanks for sharing.
My gal Belindah....I follow you in your page and I learn alot about baking....you are so motivational ❤️❤️... looking good with our Lady Lynn
