From Riches to Resets: How Claire Rebuilt Her Life, Business & Brand in Uganda & Abroad| Uganda

Claire Nansikombi's journey is anything but ordinary, and in this episode of Financially Incorrect Uganda Edition, she tells it all. Raised in a wealthy home where money was never a worry, Claire’s life took a sharp turn when she was forced to navigate adulthood, business, and survival without the safety net she’d always known. From starting a preschool in her parents’ living room with zero capital to building a flower wall rental business in Ireland on just £500, Claire shares how she’s reinvented herself multiple times across Uganda, South Africa, and Europe. She opens up about the realities of debt, the weight of generational expectations, and how becoming a mother changed her relationship with money completely. It’s a raw, honest, and deeply inspiring conversation about losing comfort, finding purpose, and learning how to build sustainable wealth on your own terms.
