I remember standing in my small boutique in Nairobi’s CBD, staring at the racks of unsold clothes. The rent was due in three days. My suppliers were demanding payment I didn’t have. I had dreamed for years of running my own fashion store, but reality was cruel, days would go by without a single customer.
It wasn’t that my clothes weren’t good. I sourced trendy pieces, priced them fairly, and even offered discounts. Still, customers always walked past my shop to the one across the corridor. I started wondering if something was wrong with me.
The worst part was the shame. I had borrowed money from my elder brother to set up the boutique, promising I’d pay him back within a year. Two years later, not only was I broke, but I was also thinking of closing down and going back to the village.
One afternoon, after a particularly bad day, I broke down and told my cousin about my struggles. She looked at me seriously and said, “Sometimes it’s not just business mistakes. Some people don’t like seeing you succeed. I know a man who can help, Dr. Bokko.”
At first, I brushed it off. I had always believed in hard work and didn’t want to rely on anything else. But that night I lay awake, thinking of how much I had tried and how much I had failed. I felt cornered. The next morning I called Dr. Bokko.
His calm voice on the phone surprised me. He didn’t promise instant miracles. Instead, he asked me to describe my journey, how I started the boutique, when things began to fail, and what I felt deep inside. I told him everything, even my growing suspicion that someone close to me might not want me to succeed.
Dr. Bokko said, “Your path is blocked. It is like a locked door, you keep pushing, but it won’t open. We can unlock it, but you must be ready to follow instructions faithfully.”
I agreed. I had nothing left to lose.
He guided me through a cleansing process, explaining that it was important to remove negative energy that might have been planted by jealous competitors or even by accident. He then performed a business-boosting ritual meant to draw in positive opportunities and genuine customers.
Within a week, something shifted. I noticed more people stopping to look at my displays. By the second week, I was making enough sales to pay my rent and restock. I couldn’t believe it.
By the third month, the boutique that had been on the verge of closing was so busy I had to hire an assistant. I expanded my inventory to include shoes and handbags, and my loyal customers started recommending my shop to their friends.
Today, when I open my shop in the morning, I feel the joy I once dreamed of the sound of customers chatting, the cash drawer opening and closing, and the sight of my business finally thriving.
I share my story because I know there are others out there like me, hard-working people who feel as if an unseen wall is blocking their success. Sometimes it’s not laziness or lack of effort; sometimes it’s the energy around you that needs to be cleared so that your hard work can pay off.
Dr. Bokko didn’t just give me hope, he gave me back my dream.

If you’ve tried everything and your business still struggles to rise, don’t give up. Seek the right help and give yourself the chance to turn things around, just like I did.
