Greetings all, I know this will be of interest to many here *Will the real Njeri stand up?* Launching tomorrow on Valentine's Day 2024 at 2:30 pm, the #UtuNaUzalendoKE Podcast brings you the first part of a candid conversation with *Njeri Mwangi.* Beyond being a wife and partner to Activist *Boniface Mwangi*, Njeri is many other things. Tune in as she delves into these multiple identities in a fascinating conversation with *Mwalimu Mutemi wa Kiama.* https://youtu.be/VUwXEW_B_dA?si=brW8eOy5gfCK1T7D Welcome to the "*Utu Na Uzalendo" Podcast*, where we transcend the ordinary and venture into the heart of true Kenyan narratives, unearthing the real but untold human stories of the people who shape our societies quietly. This Podcast series aims to amplify changemakers we at *Mzalendo Halisi Foundation* perceive as *Wazalendo* embodying the true values and philosophies of Utu Na Uzalendo. *I am because we are.* These are the Kenyans who are challenging the dominant Kenyan leadership vernaculars every day by creating and advancing new ways of showing up as active citizens and leaders. These are Kenyans who "wamejituma", because of a sense of duty and empathy and a desire to advance the larger Common Good of our society and humanity out of a sense of duty. We aim, in the process, to hopefully inform and catalyze alternative imaginations of an active citizenry that embodies and exemplifies the *Utu Philosophy* (I am because we are) and a leadership espousing a different set of values that focuses more on service and giving to others rather than taking from fellow citizenry.
