Posted on February 2, 2021February 2, 2021 by Pauline Syombua

Maureen Kunga recently took to Instagram on February 2 to open up about something we all go through: having insecurities about our bodies.

According to the lady, for years she tried to hide her smile thanks to her gummy smile. In the detailed post shared on her page, Ms Kunga went on to reveal how much she used to hate her smile as she wrote;

I used to HATE my smile ???? Hate it. Because my teeth are small and my gums show, and in Hollywood and all these other places where they try to set beauty standards for us, ALL you see is TEETH! ????

Embracing herself

But with time, Maureen has since learnt how to appreciate herself and so far; she has no problem with her smile. To prove this, the lady shared a never seen before photo where she captioned;

Only recently am I starting to learn how beautiful we really are when the emotions are genuine. And this is a VERY genuine smile ???? also shout out to the guy holding the umbrella. Because it was HOT! ????

Well truth is, nobody can love you better than yourself; and when these negative thoughts happen, it’s important to have compassion for yourself. Just know that you’re not alone in this battle.

You call it fat but we call it thick. As in, good thick that keeps tempting the eye to look! And boy has Maureen Kunga given her fans a reason to admire and at the same time envy her new curves as seen on recent post.

Well, turns out that Maureen Kunga did not continue with her weight loss program after the whole country was put on lockdown. Just like most, she spent her days in the house, probably handling both her job and singing career despite having not released any projects in almost a year.

However thanks to a detailed caption used on one of her photos; Ms Kunga went on to open up about losing herself in all the confusion of shutdowns and pandemics. Through her gram, the lady wrote;

In love with these pictures! Funny story, I feel like I’d lost myself a bit in the first few months of this year. Everything turned on its head, andwith pandemics and shutdowns and all the confusion I lost so much of who I was as a woman, as an artist, as a badass boss, as a friend…I forgot myself!

Back to claim her throne

Although the pandemic hit people differently with most ending up jobless and others homeless; Maureen Kunga remains grateful for the wake up call and lessons she has since learnt.

To commemorate this, Maureen opted for a photo shoot where she went on to show her bossy side; after reminding herself of who she is! She went on to conclude her posts saying;

This photoshoot was the first of many, because it really brought me back into a part of myself that I LOVE and I need to nurture! So, here’s to finding ourselves again, and putting ourselves back together!

Before the pandemic, Maureen had started working on her weight gain; and judging from photos taken in late 2019 – the weight loss journey had clearly been paying off!

“I was just killing myself slowly” Elani’s Maureen Kunga opens up about letting go of a pain she held on for years

Posted on November 19, 2019 by Pauline Syombua

Elani’s Maureen Kunga this past weekend made a very big step of forgiving one of her friends who had extremely hurt her in the past.

The singer opened up about this through her Instagram page revealing that for years now she held on to a pain that was slowly killing her.

Forgiveness is key to happiness

Although Maureen Kunga doesn’t reveal what happened between her and the friend who wronged her… it’s evident to see that this was a big deal since miss Kunga says she held on to the pain for years — but after letting go of the grudge, she finally feels at peace.

Miss Kunga went on to write;

Maureen Kunga

Happy Smiles and Happy Times and fireworks over my shoulder! This weekend I did a huge thing! I let go of a pain I had been holding in for YEARS and forgave someone (in person) for something that truly hurt me, many years back. I can’t even describe the panic I felt having that conversation and the tears that flowed! But I am very happy to report that it is extremely beautiful and light on the other side of forgiveness. That quote, that harbouring anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die is so real! I was just killing myself slowly and missing out on the possibility of such a great relationship with someone because I couldn’t speak on my pain. In hindsight, I can’t believe I didn’t do this sooner. But now that I have, I am at peace, with a very long-term, deep seated anger and pain relieved from me and I can’t wait to see what this does for me and my life!

In conclusion Maureen urges her fans to be quick to forgive since she understands the disadvantages of holding on to pain.

Lesson for today: If you can, and if they are here, talk about it and forgive. Regret is a difficult thing to get over!
