Are you tired of feeling trapped in your 9-to-5, dreaming of a life where you call the shots? In this episode, I sit down with Rebecca Muriuki, a corporate exit strategist who traded her role as a Big Four audit firm director for the freedom of remote entrepreneurship—all while managing a thriving short-term rental business from Nairobi, Kenya.Rebecca's story isn't just about leaving the corporate world; it's about rewriting the rules of success. After years of climbing the ladder, she realized true fulfillment meant prioritizing family, fun, and freedom. Now, she's helping other women do the same—by building income streams that align with their values and unlock lifestyle freedom.We go deep into the mindset shifts required to break free from the golden handcuffs of traditional careers. Rebecca opens up about the identity crisis she faced after leaving corporate, how she manages properties remotely, and the practical steps she took to reclaim her time and power.What sets Rebecca apart is her holistic approach—this isn't just about investing in real estate and throwing a property on Airbnb, it's about recalibrating your entire relationship with money, success, and self-worth. If you've ever felt stuck or scared to make a leap, this episode is your permission slip. It's packed with honest insights, proven strategies, and the kind of motivation that will make you believe freedom isn't just a dream—it's a decision!

So that's what I did. I started building a business.” “It's such an interesting thing how sometimes when you look back hindsight, you realize some of the skill sets you don't actually realize you have.” “I really started to accept my values when I started to reflect on what were the things that totally pissed me off about my corporate job, things that annoyed me.” “Once I learned to live my life from the inside out and recognize that when I have internal abundance, the external abundance is a natural byproduct of it.” “What if this doesn't work? Yeah, there's a chance it couldn't work, but you also have the power to refine until it works.” “I would definitely put myself in rooms where you can see evidence that it's possible, because the environment has a big impact on your conditioning; which has a big impact on your thoughts, your belief system.” “Never compare yourself with others. Stay in your own lane. You are on your own journey.” Let's Connect! Podcast: https://richwomanrevolution.com/podcast Enjoyed the show? Subscribe, Rate, Review, Like, and Share!

Dr. Laura welcomes Dr. Joel Davis Brown. Chief Visionary Officer of Pneumos LLC, sought-after speaker, and author of “The Souls of Queer Folk: How Understanding LGBTQ+ Culture Can Transform Your Leadership Practice”, to Where Work Meets Life™ to talk about his journey, leadership, and what we can all learn from the queer community. Joel discusses how he worked to uncover what it means to be queer from an ethnographic standpoint, validating and understanding the community, in order to understand their leadership lessons. Joel and Dr. Laura explore the nine queer leadership principles from Joel's book, including justice, verve, resilience, and interconnectedness, which are core leadership competencies everyone should embrace. Joel highlights the importance of gratitude, differentiating it from toxic positivity, the significance of coming out, how leaders must heal themselves to do transformational work, and how soulful leadership embodies the essence of an individual. The conversation illuminates the depths of experience in the queer community, the insights Joel has pulled from the community to write his book, and the power of interconnectedness and storytelling.“Leadership is a life book. It's not a business book. So leadership applies to how you lead yourself, how you interact and engage with your family, your spouse, your children, your community, and yes, with the world. And so in that space, I think there's an opportunity for people to learn and to benefit from the wisdom of the queer community, asking: how can I be better as an individual? How can I be a better version of myself? How can I have a better relationship with my family? How can I support my organization? And also, how can we create a better planet? So that's in essence what this book is about.” Dr. Joel Davis BrownAbout Dr. Joel Davis Brown Esq., Ed.D., CLC:Dr. Joel A.

The painting was a scene of a little park and a tiny footbridge crossing a stream that meandered through a forest that opened onto a meadow where stood a small cottage with an equally small door painted blue. Those gathered together turned around to tell the painter how much they admired his work but he was nowhere to be found. One of his friends said, "Look! There he is! In the painting!" He walked up the path that led to the door of the cottage, stopped, turned, smiled, and disappeared inside.Question: Imagine becoming so engrossed in your project that you end up disappearing into it in the same way.

In vielen Quartieren Berns ist der Wohnraum knapp. Das musste auch Samuel Burri nach seiner Rückkehr aus Afrika feststellen. Doch er und seine Familie hatten Glück. Samuel Burri nimmt uns im «Tagesgespräch unterwegs» mit in sein Wohnquartier – den Breitsch. «Im Breitenrain hat sich viel getan, in der Zeit, als ich in Afrika war», erklärt Samuel Burri. Ein schöner Anknüpfungspunkt nach der Rückkehr vom afrikanischen Kontinent war für Burri und seine Kinder die Verbindung zu Weeks, einem nigerianischen Tankstellenwart und Kioskbetreiber im Breitenrain. In der Sommerserie «Tagesgespräch unterwegs – Rendezvous in Bern» erzählt der ehemalige SRF-Afrikakorrespondent Samuel Burri von den Unterschieden im Wohnen zwischen Nairobi und Bern, von «linken Bünzlis», seinem journalistischen Schaffen hier und dort und präsentiert bei Weeks in der Tankstelle typisch afrikanisches Instant-Food. Das Gespräch führte Salim Staubli.

Vor 27 Jahren zog Samuel Burri für sein Studium aus dem Luzernischen nach Bern. Zum selben Zeitpunkt eröffnete im Berner Lorraine-Quartier das Café Kairo. Ein Aushängeschild der Berner Gastroszene. Dort trifft sich Salim Staubli mit Samuel Burri im «Tagesgespräch unterwegs – Rendezvous in Bern». Die Gastronomie in Bern hat schwierige Jahre hinter sich. Die Pandemie hat viele Betriebe arg ins Wanken gebracht oder gar in den Konkurs getrieben. Das Café Kairo hat die Pandemie überstanden. Eine einfache Zeit sei es aber nicht gewesen, bestätigt Kairo-Wirtin Trine Pauli. Und das Lorraine-Quartier kämpft noch mit einem anderen Problem: der rasanten Gentrifizierung. Dass sich Quartiere verändern, gehöre nun mal dazu, findet Samuel Burri. Wie blickt der ehemalige Afrika-Korrespondent auf die Berner Gastronomie im Vergleich zur Gastronomie in Nairobi, wo er früher gelebt hat? Wie geschieht Gentrifizierung oder soziale Segregation in Afrika? Und geht Samuel Burri eigentlich noch in den Ausgang?

While attention often focuses on developed markets, the most exciting fintech innovations are emerging where mobile technology, young digital-native populations, and gaps in traditional banking converge. These regions aren't just adopting Western models – they're creating entirely new paradigms that may eventually reshape global finance. Today I'm joined by Nadia Costanzo, Director of Banking for the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America at Wise. Nadia drives Wise's expansion across these regions by building banking relationships, securing licenses, and navigating complex regulatory frameworks. Her background is uniquely valuable – before Wise, she worked with Kiva in Nairobi facilitating microfinance across Africa, contributed to the World Bank's Universal Financial Access agenda, and worked directly with microfinance institutions in Paraguay. Today, we'll explore how fintech evolves differently across emerging markets, examine key challenges, and discuss surprising innovations where traditional banking is limited. We'll also consider what these developments mean for established financial institutions looking to engage with these dynamic markets.

In the 1970s and 80s, Caroline Eshghi was a young girl living in Bristol, Somerset, and Wiltshire. From the moment she was born until she ran away at the age of 15, Caroline was beaten, burned and starved by her mother. In May this year, Melanie Burmingham was jailed for 20 months for abusing her daughter more than 50 years ago. Caroline tells Krupa Padhy why she is now petitioning for a change to the law around historical cases that only allows a sentence available at the time of offending. The first malaria treatment suitable for babies has been approved for use.

There is currently a working pilot in the South West of England, and several of the clinicians, psychiatrists and forensic psychologists have raised concerns about making such a scheme mandatory. Krupa talks to Don Rubin, Emeritus Professor in Forensic Psychology at Newcastle University, and a consultant to the pilot programme. Fatima Timbo, known as Fats Timbo, is a content creator and comedian who has amassed an incredible 3 million followers on TikTok. Since appearing on TV show The Undateables in 2018, she's also been part of the team bringing us the Paralympics coverage from Paris last year. Born with achondroplasia, a form of dwarfism, she documents her experiences of being - as she describes it - ‘a little person', and now she's sharing her tips for succeeding in a world where it's difficult to be different in her book Main Character Energy: Ten Commandments for Living Life Fearlessly.

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports police are blocking major roads leading into Kenya's capital, Nairobi, as anti-government protests continue.

A year after a deadly crackdown, Kenya’s streets are alive with protests again, this time after a blogger died in police custody and officers shot a demonstrator at close range. As outrage grows, so do calls for accountability. Why does police brutality persist in Kenya, and how do officers continue to evade justice?

As chatbots continue to evolve, Lesley Stahl reports from Nairobi, Kenya, on the growing market of “humans in the loop” – workers around the world who help train AI for big American tech companies. Stahl speaks with digital workers who have spent hours in front of screens teaching and improving AI, but complain of poor working conditions, low pay and undertreated psychological trauma. Correspondent Jon Wertheim journeys by boat (and winch) into the world's smallest – and unlikeliest – state: the Principality of Sealand. Just off the English coast, and roughly the landmass of two tennis courts, it boasts a full-time population of one. It was built during World War II as a nautical fort, and later repurposed as a “pirate radio” station under its monarchs, the Bates family. Wertheim takes a tour of this micronation and its history of piracy, coups, countercoups and rogues. The name Werner Herzog may not be as recognizable as Spielberg or Scorsese, but over the last six decades, the German filmmaker has had a profound and far-reaching influence on the world of cinema. He's made over 70 features and documentaries, which are often dream-like explorations of nature's power, human frailties and the edges of sanity. Correspondent Anderson Cooper sits down with the enigmatic director to discuss his films, and his other roles as writer and actor.
