Conversations Into Adulthood- By Cecilia Gathoni

 


1. Conversations on Becoming an Adult

There is a moment in every life when laughter becomes a little heavier, when one’s reflection in the mirror starts asking questions instead of giving answers. Conversations on Becoming an Adult opens with that subtle shift — the realization that growing up is not about birthdays or tax forms, but about the quiet decisions that shape one’s moral and emotional core.

In a voice that is both wry and wounded, Gathoni examines the intersections of independence, longing, and self-definition. Through recollections that oscillate between humour and heartbreak, she sketches a portrait of what it means to be an adult in a world that expects performance rather than authenticity.

There’s wine and worry, self-doubt and stubbornness, but also the smallest rebellions — like refusing to conform to someone else’s measure of success. It is a chapter for anyone who has ever whispered, “I think I’m doing this wrong,” only to realize that everyone else is, too.

A meditation on becoming and unbecoming, this is where the reader begins to sense the heartbeat of Conversations Into Adulthood — steady, vulnerable, human.
