Synopsis

In this episode of Legally Clueless, Adelle shares Part 2 of Gachambi’s powerful and deeply honest story, a testimony of resilience through toxic workplaces, repeated exam failures, sexual harassment in the legal world, and the long, winding road toward becoming an advocate of the High Court of Kenya. After passing only four out of nine bar exams, Gachambi faced disappointment, self-doubt, and the pressure to keep going when giving up felt easier.

She takes us through the emotional weight of resitting exams over two years, the inner dialogue of remembering “the smart girl she once was,” and the moment she finally passed her final papers in 2023. But her academic journey was only part of the story.

In this episode she also opens up about:
• Surviving toxic legal workplaces that drained her mentally and physically
• Sexual harassment from seniors in the profession — and the silence surrounding it
• Being fired just weeks before her admission to the bar
• Navigating unemployment, anxiety, and the pressure to “have it all figured out”
• Rediscovering her purpose through humanitarian law and volunteering
• The role faith plays in her rebuilding

This episode is a raw reflection on what it means to survive workplaces that weren’t built to protect you, how failure can become a teacher, and how purpose sometimes reveals itself in the ashes of what fell apart. If you’re in a season of career confusion, burnout, or feeling unseen in your workplace, this story will hold you gently.
