    We talk so much about BUILDING WEALTH… but what happens when life happens?At just 30, Mnyindo Tairo lost her husband during COVID. Being a stay-at-home mum with two young children, no immediate access to the family wealth they had built, and suddenly had to figure out how to rebuild her life and provide for her children.One decision they had made earlier, enabled her to support her family: life insurance. After her husband’s passing, she also took up LeRisque Africa, a business he had helped her set up, and turned her experience into a mission to help other families protect and preserve their wealth.In this episode of Be That Woman, we unpack the conversations many families avoid: family wealth, life insurance, wills, family trusts, succession planning, beneficiaries vs next of kin, guardianship, inheritance and business continuity.Because creating wealth is one thing.

    What should you be doing with your money before Kenya’s 2027 elections? 👀 And with the NSE bull run creating opportunities for investors, is now the time to buy, sell… or simply sit tight? In this episode 1 of Season 5, I sit down with Personal Finance Coach and Investor Barbara Nzovu, popularly known as Barbs the Budgeting Coach, for a practical conversation on budgeting, investing and building wealth in Kenya. We break down investing for beginners, from NSE stocks and bonds to money market funds, diversification and understanding whether your investments are actually beating inflation. Barbara also shares how she approaches her own investment portfolio, what to consider when investing around an election period, how to identify companies worth investing in, and when it may make more sense to use a fund manager rather than doing everything yourself.
