Beyond being a medical doctor, Githinji is a family woman. She is married with two sons. Apart from her career, family is the only other thing that has shaped how she lives her life.
Her life has a few definite routines. She wakes up around 6:30am. Often, the two boys would have been up as well and would come into her bedroom.
“We then cuddle for 10 or so minutes. Afterwards, we pray and set the day in motion,” she says.
Githinji then proceeds to her ‘mini gym’ in the house – made up of basic tools like a skipping rope. “I exercise for one hour. I do a little bit of weightlifting, a little cardio workout, I box and do a few stretches.”
