"It's not patriotism, it's ENVY." This economist just exposed the uncomfortable truth about why Uganda can't grow. And it has NOTHING to do with what you think.

You're working hard. Grinding every day. But somehow, you're still broke. Your business isn't breaking even. The country feels stuck. And deep down, you're wondering "Is something wrong with ME?"

The answer will shock you.

In this raw, unfiltered conversation, economist Arnold Spencer Turwomwe (PhD candidate in Energy Economics) reveals the SPIRITUAL and economic forces keeping Uganda—and YOU—from prosperity.

This isn't your typical "motivational" podcast.

This is the truth nobody wants to say out loud.

"We're not go-getters. We're waiting to be given."

As Ugandans, we have EVERYTHING we need to achieve middle-income status.

The resources.

The talent.

The opportunities.

The budget allocations are there.

But we're sitting back, waiting for someone else to do the work.

Someone gets PDM money and buys one piglet. Then waits. Farmers grow pineapples. Then wait for the motor car buyers to come. We have stunning tourism sites. But we're not telling our story.

Meanwhile, our neighbours are dressing impeccably, oozing confidence, and taking opportunities we should be getting.

The question is always "What will the government do?" The question is: "What are YOU doing?"

Because here's what it is, We ARE the government.

🎧 In this conversation, we break down the mindset shifts we need, the opportunities in Uganda's budget, and why treating Uganda as a BRAND (not just a country) changes everything.

What's ONE thing you're doing in your own capacity—in your business, your community, your village—to move Uganda forward? Let's challenge each other.

"We had zero clients for an entire year."

That's what Seanice Kacungira told us when we ask about the early days of Blue Flamingo Africa, now a Pan-African digital marketing agency operating across 5 countries.

Seanice shares

- Why she walked into a radio station at 16 and asked for a job

- How she became the youngest director at 25

- The shocking amount of money they've lost (her words"you'd weep for me")

- Why she only has TWO core values guiding her entire business

- What it really takes to build across multiple African markets

"Most successful people aren't smarter than you. They just failed more."

Question for you; When was the last time you raised your hand for an opportunity you weren't 100% ready for?
