The challenges of life can lead people to cultivate bad habits like smoking and drinking irresponsibly.

But for Entrepreneur, singer, and actress Diamond Michelle Gbagonah, she makes every effort to turn limes into smiles.

Michy has shared that she activates herself into the mode of prayer or simply resorts to solitude when life comes biting hard at her.

“I would say I’m a good friend to solitude. I like to be with myself, analyze the situation I’m in at the moment, and sort of get it together before I get out,” Michy shared.

“I don’t go out when I’m all berserk, if I can say that. I journal a lot. I’d rather journal, pray, cry if I have to, which is very important. Once in a while, you’re allowed to crash out, but not for too long.”

The former partner of Shatta Wale and mother of his child, Majesty, has shed light on why she avoids sharing details about her love life on social media.

In an interview with Nana Romeo on Accra FM, Michy revealed that publicising her relationships often leads to others trying to "snatch" her partner. To protect her privacy and peace, she has decided to keep her romantic affairs off social platforms.

Beyond her personal life, Michy discussed her entrepreneurial pursuits. Alongside ambassadorial roles, she has ventured into catfish farming, a thriving business she proudly highlighted.

She stressed the importance of diversifying income sources to achieve financial stability in Ghana, emphasising her dedication to building a secure future for herself and her son.

Michy also addressed comments recently made by Shatta Wale regarding their past relationship. During his appearance on the Rants, Bants, and Confessions podcast with Efia Odo, Ama Burland, and Gisela Amponsah, the dancehall star reflected on their breakup. He expressed disappointment, claiming that Michy failed to appreciate his love and efforts to sustain their relationship.

Michy GH addresses Shatta Wale's criticism

In an interview with media personality Nana Romeo on Thursday, 14 November 2024, Michy GH chose not to respond directly to Shatta Wale, saying that although she had many stories to share about their relationship, she preferred to keep silent.

She remarked, "Based on my long journey with him, I deserve appreciation." Michy GH also questioned the accuracy of her former partner's claims, suggesting that people should seek clarity on his statements.She asked rhetorically whether another woman would have stayed with Shatta Wale as long as she did.

Similarly, Ghanaian broadcaster MzGee shared her perspective on life's challenges and how she navigates them.

She said that life experiences do not always turn out successful, but even in failure, there are always lessons to be learnt.

“I realised that truly, truly, what John Maxwell said in his book. Sometimes you win, sometimes you learn, is actually true," she said on her Gee O’clock show.

The broadcaster indicated that some books teach real-life lessons, but people often ignore them until those lessons pan out in their own lives.

She now considers failure as an opportunity to correct the wrongs to achieve excellent results in life.

"Sometimes you need to fail so you can revisit your notes, look at where you went wrong and then come back so hard,” she said.

Commenting on other matters, MzGee, opened up about her deeply personal experience with motherhood, revealing the emotional and physical challenges she faced during and after childbirth.

"Motherhood is a big deal," she reflected with a voice thick with emotion. "When you go through it, you understand. If you don’t respect your mother, if you speak to her anyhow—ah, you will regret it."

The media personality’s journey into motherhood was not easy. While her pregnancy was complicated, it was the postpartum period that truly tested her strength. After giving birth, MzGee’s health took a frightening turn. Her blood pressure remained dangerously high, requiring constant monitoring. The ordeal left her in a vulnerable state, and she found herself praying for her safety.

"I was on the altar. I was praying because, at that point, I became scared for my own life," she shared on her show, Gee O’clock.

Despite her health struggles, the exhaustion of caring for her newborn added another layer of difficulty. It was during this period that MzGee leaned heavily on her support system, especially her friend Ann Marie, who stayed by her side to help with the baby.

"I was physically drained, but it was my support network that gave me the strength to push through," MzGee said, emphasizing the importance of having people who care during tough times.

Her experience has led to a newfound respect for the complexities of motherhood. "When you go through it, you truly understand the strength it takes to be a mother," she explained. "Motherhood is not just about giving birth; it’s about surviving the emotional, physical, and mental toll it takes on you."

This profound journey has reshaped MzGee’s perspective, urging a deeper empathy for mothers everywhere and a call for more appreciation of their struggles.
