Wealth Factory Podcast | Episode 13

Guest: Chukwudi Uraih

Welcome to another episode of the Wealth Factory Podcast, where we spotlight entrepreneurs who are mastering money, scaling businesses, and creating financial freedom. In this episode, host Scott Larsen talks with Chukwudi Uraih, an engineer, Army veteran, and financial advisor who transformed personal tragedy into motivation for helping others build lasting wealth. Chukwudi shares her story as a first-generation immigrant child who saw firsthand the impact of inadequate financial planning when her father passed away unexpectedly. That experience pushed her to create a financial advising business focused on teaching people how to protect their wealth and prepare for the unexpected.

A few highlights from our conversation:

• Knowing Your Numbers: Chukwudi emphasizes the importance of understanding your personal and business budgets to effectively scale a company. She shares practical advice on how to evaluate what it really costs to “be you” in both life and business.
  
• Marketing & Networking: Success didn’t happen overnight. Chukwudi credits a business coach and digital marketing skills for helping her reach the right audience. She highlights the value of building partnerships and getting your name out in the right circles.
  
• Being Incomparable: In a crowded market, Chukwudi stands out by focusing on a specific niche and demonstrating unique value, a strategy that protects her business through economic ups and downs.
  
• True Wealth is Time: For Chukwudi, financial independence means freedom, specifically control over her time. She reminds us that money can’t buy more time, making it the most precious asset.
  
• Advice for New Entrepreneurs: Don’t overlook personal and business credit. Building credit strategically early on is crucial to long-term business success.
