- Esther Muchemi is one of the most successful businesswomen in Kenya. Her journey to the top started some 18 years ago when she founded Samchi Telecom to sell airtime as the mobile revolution was just about to sweep the country in 2000.
Samchi Telecom was first honoured as the top M-Pesa agent by Safaricom in 2009. The company has severally been ranked as top airtime dealer for Safaricom in subsequent years.
It’s also important to note that Samchi was the pioneer M-Pesa dealer when the mobile money was invented. M-Pesa was piloted at Samchi for six months before it was rolled out. Esther Muchemi was the first to transact with M-Pesa in Kenya holding the till number 0001.

Thank you so much for watching❤
Don't lower your bar and so much more❤❤❤❤
Hi Lynn wow what a powerhouse. My takeaways are Obedience, call yourself to a meeting, never lower your bar to fit in. Take a risk whilst waiting for clarity. Will the book be delivered outside Kenya?
Lnn this is so exciting and inspiring to all kinds of people.....I am just wondering why did you camouflage this rich wisdom with this title? When I am sharing with my friends young and old I have to explain the story its is not about marriage 😅
Africa has 65% arable land
As my take home
This lovely lady gave out her car for days to help in my husband's funeral. Fueled it and comforted me. She's a beautiful lady with a beautiful heart! Thank you for the love you gave me. Bless you!
Bless her more for standing with you.
Hugs to you sister
My take home;
1. Do life
2. Call yourself into a meeting
3. When you're given a privilege, don't misuse it
4. Never Lower your bar to accommodate mediocrity
Botswana 🇧🇼 approves. Thank you Lynn, thank you Doctor Mucheni. Great conversation.
She also said
invest your money wisely
Always save no matter how small is the amount.
KE🇰🇪
Correct ❤

Consistency 👌
Wow!! So happy to watch this lady I once worked as her nanny and I can tell you for as long as you have gone through her hands trust me their is no where you can't work in the world
She is blessed
Thank you for your testimony. That speaks volumes about her character and heart.
She is evil. I worked for her at Barclays plaza, Samchi. I left after 3 weeks. I left crying. I still remember myself in that Kasarani mat, how I cried all the way home then went to a grassy patch outside Sportsview then and lay there and cried some more. I felt like my life had ended. Esther would mistreat me and since I left before 4 weeks were over, of course I wasn't paid. This lady is evil through and through. She treats lesser people like trash. This far the Lord has brought me from that little crying girl. Thank you Lord.
I grew up with a father who used to say my younger sister is foolish, when she passed on, my mother became the foolish one till she passed on, then now I am the foolish one.... I will over come.. How some times I used to wish I was born in another family with a better head and a leader but I have learned that I am the change I want in my family..
👏👏👏👏
Sending you love n light ❤
And God has given you the wisdom and revelation to know and understand that neither your sister your mom or yourself are fools! You have conquered by understanding you're the light and you're what God says youre_con
👍👍👍☝️☝️☝️☝️
Conqueror
"Don't chase the world just continue doing and consistently doing what is right,the world will locate you"....wow ❤
Absolutely
Wanjiru's are go getters,,she is blessed...
Now these are the women to bring to the show!
Pure gold,woman of substance
Way to go Lynn Ngugi 👏🏿👏🏿
"It's the idea that has failed not me". That was powerful for me.
And failure is a stepping stone to greater things.
So good!!
My take home. " I do not need the full clarity of the next step. Take a step into the unknown. Obey and God will guide you".
One of those interviews you want to watch from certificate level and keep watching until it crowns you a PhD. Lyn, please bring her back😍
It's the way Lynn manages to blend in with her guests and treat them like a long lost friend. Both the mighty and lowly she makes them feel very much at ease.
Her marriage did not start functioning when she started asking the husband why he came late, it's not functioning. She just gave up and started directing energies on something else. You can see how emotional she becomes when she talks about that part. It still hurts. Let's normalize accepting mens mistakes and taking responsibilities. We don't need husbands, we need loving and respectable men. If a man comes late without you knowing where he was, he is disrespecting you as a wife. He owes you as a wife.
Wooooooow
😊
I totally agree🎉
The true meaning of Educating a girl you Educate the Nation look at this 2 beautiful ladies doing it very simple way!!❤ What an incredible interview!!
Lesson learned from Esther,I will never argue with my husband either late coming at night or else I work on myself and persue my career to chase my dreams.thnks Lynn for her.
A husband has no business coming late,Africa spiritual way, God is not a man,can a man design the beautiful world we have
You have the right to question a husband who is coming late and not giving explanations. You have a right to be informed.
This is not only negative thing I got from this woman. How can she advise women to accept mediocrity when it comes to marriage. You'll be brought diseases in the house.
Fear women!!! A woman that has decided is not compared to anything..look at mountains this lady has conquered?❤❤❤❤ I am so passionate with this.. my heart is full for her
My former employer......my mentor...a go getter....she made me what i am today..
.nothing stops on her way.....woman of substance.....proud of you madam Esther muchemi..
..🎉🎉🎉
Thank your employer,some of us are crying becos of our employers
Show me your ways steller
I wish I can speak the same. I tried to plead with her company because of her one employer, Boniface Ndung'u who aliruka after pregnaning me. I had signed form with finance manager plus the guy i will get some money but the company ikaniruka pia. I thought she would be sympathetic after kupitia hiyo but wapi, mambo kwa ground is different.
kukata pesa kwa pay slip ya mtu si rahisi hivo unafikiria. some pple have got loans which make it impossible to deduct, employers fear loosing the best employees, etc yaani its complicated, dont be harsh on madam @@salonmassagechairforrelaxa924
Unfortunately I have nothing good to say about her. She is bad news. I attended an orientation summon as a new staff with her and that was my first and last day at SAMCHI. I decided I can't and left
I am prophesying to myself that I will have an empire of my own give me two years. Thank you so much Lynn for bringing her to the show may this comment that am leaving here be reference point for when i'll give my testimony at this show.
Amen ,I know nothing about you but am rooting for you girl❤
AMEN🙏....
Amen
Watching from Zambia. I have never listened to a woman who is so elegant, wise with such power
This is a conversation that every kenyan girl, woman and mother should listen to and aspire for. This country needs many Esthers and Lynns to achieve prosperity❤❤❤
She is Catherine Kasavuli's look alike. Very beautiful
I am a Nigerian, never heard of this program, the interviewer or the interviewee. The “click bait” made me start watching and I sat to watch the full video from start to finish. And I have been blessed by it. Well done Lynn
Hi dear,it is one of the best channels we have in Kenya am glad u did enjoy.please watch her of her programs.
Wow! Esther Muchemi. The best interview ever.
Wisdon, eloquence, class, confidence and funny banters all in one. A real inspiration.!
"There is no man or woman that has power and authority to hold my destiny. If a door shuts I must pursue and seek the door that shall usher me into greatness"
This is is like me talking. Her energy, confidence, Dad instilling confidence in me and the soft spot for nice cars.
The power of being affirmed as a child ...... parents play a very big role...some of us we have to unlearn alot... struggling with low self esteem
I can resonate with this
Very true...
Lynn you don’t know how this conversation has changed me and impacted my life. I just found myself clicking on on it when I was in my lowest, May God bless you for bringing such women on your platform. Thank you Esther for empowering a woman like me. Be blessed abundantly.
Two women I admire seated together!
"Never lower your bar to accommodate mediocrity"... My friend that's just not a statement.. It's a wake up call for both sides..
Lynn I wish I heard this message when i was in my 20s........ It's powerful. But it's not over until my soul goes back to the Father
I just love people who have a serious real relationship with God, the wisdom oozing out them is just inspirational.
I love how she said that a brain that works well in corporate can equally work well at being a wife!! Such a rich interview!
How I wish I'll be able to raise my only daughter to this kind of character of Esther Muchemi....Dear God, this is my supplication to you Lord.
Esther's energy is clean and contagious. I see me in her in 10 years ill inspire someone.
She has reminded that I was destined for greatness! I had forgotten. & never to lower the bar of my expectations both from myself & also from those that surround me.
The strength you have given me...tiga tu...only a Kikuyu can understand that sentence 🎉
I loved her resolution about her husband
Not to again worry about his whereabouts
The peace that it comes with 👌
sad
As a man, I can assure you that 99% of the places women imagine we are hata most times hatuko hapo.
A lot your problems exist only in your mind and the moment you overcome your over-thinking, you have solved half the problems.
"There is not enough room in your mind for both faith and worry. You must decide which you want to live there"
@@loremipsum6484 I agree and that’s why the resolution not to worry brings a lot of peace
@@MAYWAHITO Ati sad how now!!
@@MAYWAHITO Just give it a try you never be sad anymore 🍀
Marriage needs WISDOM. it is acquired with time and from the relationships that you have
My take...
• Values
• Becoming
• Consistency
• Take risks
• Invest & Re-invest back
• Integrity
• Cast your bread into many waters, in other words, DIVERSIFY!!
Thank you, Madam Esther Muchemi, for sharing your wisdom with us. Thank you, @LNN❤
My goodness, i just love how real Esther is, she exudes wisdom and good energy.
My take home RICHLY...... 💪🏽
✔️Don't chase the world, it will locate you.
✔️No faking to make it, it will all become.
✔️Call yourself into a meeting.
✔️Its the idea that failed not me.
✔️ Establish the principles of success.
✔️ Step down temporarily....sacrifice..
✔️Never lower your bar to accommodate mediocracy.
Wooooow!!!!!
Thanks so much Lynn i have learnt, unlearnt and relearned. Looking forward on how to create boundaries, on your follow up.
Blessings.
super summary,thanks
Esther exudes strength and inspiration. Attending an event where she served as the keynote speaker was a privilege, and her words consistently pushed me to personal and professional growth.
She exudes so much clas and has the wisdom and humility of a lived life. Anyone will stop and listen.
I have loved that conversation. I've been truly inspired. My take home; take care of yourself coz no one else will. Number 2, take one task concentrate on it, nurture it patiently it will blossom, don't think of plan B while at it, give it your best shot. This is a book to have in my library ❤
Correct
Esther is such a mood. Charismatic, approachable yet firm. Definitely going into my vision board
I have attended one of the conferences she was a speaker on. She is beautiful energy. Very vybing, encouraging. Her staff must be very happy to have her as the CEO.
Esther muchemi really inspires me she is a force to reckon .Thank you Lynn for bringing her ,this is my best show.
Woow! This woman is always full of energy... whenever we are in a meeting with her she gives it her all boldly...shes truly a superwoman for lack of better words..,😍💃🎉
This is the energy we need in this Era of Social media and depression.
You mean I can bring myself to this? Got me😢 instant healing in 3 mins 🎉
We need a part 2 or an Esther Muchemi series I feel there is a lot more in that tank
What a wonderful interview! My biggest take home is that there is no one who has got power and authority to deny me my destiny! I love her humility and wisdom. Great conversation :)
She's oozing wisdom with alot of confidence❤
Wow what a humble billionaire! She's one in a million for sure. Thank you Lynn for hosting her I am truly blessed to experience this with a thousand others. She has rounded up everything in one conversation...from Financially to Spiritually to Emotionally and Economically. What a blessing for sure. I will sure get the book. God bless you
Inspiration and education overload ❤ I felt like I had attended a whole workshop. Dr. Esther is an amazing teacher I hope she teaches in universities❤❤❤. Thank you Lynn
10min into this video and I can tell that this woman Esther is a force to be reckoned with. Her energy is powerful. Her words moved me,I felt something when she talked.
An all round candid and inspiring conversation. Esther exudes grace and elegance. Thanks Lynn.
Having an Exam in weeks time...was lazing around until I watched this video and reminded me am destined for greatness.... not me in the university library at the moment

This lady is a package of everything we need in this life she's a blessing and listening to her is like taking medicine, Lynn God bless you for sourcing this one it's a game changer for me a gift to carry next year thank you so much ❤❤
Esther is such a strategic thinker, thanks Lynn for such an inspiration. My take home is Focus, Consistency, quality and believe in God. Extend the nets.
This woman's humility is amazing.Seeing Lynn shower blessings on her and she's humble enough to just be in agreement is beyond extraordinary.Looking at her level one would expect her to be the one showering blessings on Lynn.Indeed respecting humans regardless of where they are is a lesson I'll hold dear for the rest of my life.
