Money isn't just about what you earn.
It's about what you believe.
Some people see opportunities everywhere, while others constantly fear there's never enough. So where does that mindset come from and can it be changed?
In this episode of the Just Money Podcast, Ivy sits down with Murugi Munyi, entrepreneur, influencer, and podcaster, alongside Dr. Mary Waceke, a life coach who specializes in women and wealth, to explore the powerful connection between mindset, money, and success.
Murugi opens up about how her upbringing shaped her abundant mindset, the beliefs that have influenced the way she approaches money, and how she intentionally built the Murugi Munyi brand. She also shares why she's become comfortable saying "no" to opportunities that don't align with her values even when they come with a paycheck.
Dr. Waceke unpacks the psychology behind abundance, explaining where our money beliefs are formed, how limiting beliefs hold people back, and the practical steps anyone can take to develop a healthier relationship with wealth.
In this conversation we explore:
What an abundant mindset really means
How childhood shapes our relationship with money
How Murugi Munyi intentionally built her personal brand
Why saying "no" can be one of the best financial decisions you'll make
The role of confidence in creating opportunities
How women can redefine their relationship with wealth
The psychology behind scarcity thinking
One lesson stands out:
Abundance isn't about having more.
It's about believing there is enough and making decisions from that place instead of fear.
Whether you're building a business, growing your career, or simply trying to develop a healthier relationship with money, this conversation offers practical insights into creating a mindset that supports lasting success.

Most people think trusts are only for the ultra-wealthy.
