Has success come at the cost of love?

For many women, building a career, creating financial stability and learning to stand on their own wasn't about proving they didn't need a partner. It was about refusing to put life on hold while waiting for one.

In this episode of Conversations with Kalekye, I sit down with Nekesa Stephanie Wamalwa —a lawyer by training and Programme Lead, Next Gen at Trust Africa — for a deeply honest conversation about love, success and the emotional weight of doing life alone.

Nekesa shares her personal journey of watching money become the invisible 3rd party in her parents marriage, pursuing an education, building a meaningful career and creating the life she dreamed of, while also asking the difficult questions many successful women quietly wrestle with:

- Has my success made finding love harder?

- Do men feel intimidated by accomplished women?

- Can a woman be independent and still desire partnership?

- What does true partnership look like today?

This isn't a conversation about choosing career over love. It's about challenging the assumption that women who have built successful lives somehow no longer want to share them. If you've ever wondered whether success changes the way we experience relationships, this conversation is for you.

I'd love to hear from you in the comments: Do you think success makes dating more difficult, or does it simply reveal the right partner?

The culture where women expect the men they date to show them exactly how they can take care of them as early as date number one has really made it hard for men to settle down early...

On this episode we get to hear from 'boy-child' on views around, provision, how early its expected and what happens when the expectations change in a marriage.

Our guest Kevin Ismael, a communication specialists, shares that the expectations in his generation begin quite early and many men find themselves choosing to focus on building wealth before the thought of settling down so that the matter of provision is no longer in question - plus the girls come willingly when you have the money.

Are men accepting of the card the times have dealt them? Watch, listen and learn on this 2nd episode of the Money & Love Relationship Series.
