It gets better – Kamene Goro’s advice to 23-year-olds


Despite being laid off from popular radio station Kiss FM, media personality Kamene Goro continues to give the best of what she has garnered over the years to those who look up to her.

Through her social media platforms, Kamene still shares her nuggets of wisdom now and then, with the most recent being to 23-year-olds who feel under pressure because of a lack of jobs and a stable life.

In an interactive question and answer session, Kamene was asked by one of her fans, “What advice can you give a 23-year-old turning 24-year-old: no job, no relationship, no savings?”

The radio personality responded, saying, “Time to look at all your options and what you want to do vis a vis what you can do. It’s time to have a meeting with yourself and come up with a deliberate day-to-day plan on how to get to where you want to be. Be deliberate. It gets better, love.”

This comes a little after the popular presenter was discharged from the hospital after undergoing knee surgery a few days ago.

Through her Insta stories, Kamene told her fans she was out of the hospital and recuperating at home. “Finally been discharged to embark on the hardest part of my recovery. God is good,” Kamene shared.

“This journey really taught me a lot about my support system. And I’m honestly so happy to learn all I’m learning in this particularly tough phase of this year,” she added.

The former presenter underwent knee surgery on January 24, 2024, at the Karen Hospital. She provided her followers with a health update as she rested in her hospital bed before undergoing surgery.

Kamene, in a video, revealed that she was at the hospital to address a torn meniscus in her knee. The meniscus, a crucial C-shaped cartilage pad in the knee responsible for shock absorption, required repair.

“I have come to repair my knee, I think I have told you guys the story before. Yeah, so I tore my meniscus and I am mmh, yeah so I am due for surgery this morning,” she said.

Kamene expressed concern about the anesthesia used to numb sensations during surgical procedures, noting that she feels uneasy about it.

Additionally, she mentioned that her post-surgery recovery tends to be more challenging than the surgery itself.

“I am a little bit anxious about the whole anesthesia thing, I don’t know this time round coz every other time I haven’t been anxious about it but anyway so yes that is the surgery I am going in for I am hoping I will be able to walk as soon as possible coz I think for me he recovery is usually harder than the surgery,” Kamene said.

In August 2023, Kamene Goro shared her plans to undergo a knee implant procedure, citing past complications.

She disclosed having experienced three instances of meniscus tears but emphasized that her knee challenges were unrelated to her being a plus-size individual.

“I’ve torn my meniscus three times. It’s not a weight thing. So I’m due to fix the third tear and get an implant,” Kamene explained.
