Let's be real, adulting in Nairobi (or any major Kenyan city) is a whole vibe – building your career, chasing that side hustle, and trying to secure your financial future.

But between investing in your skills, navigating the rising cost of living, and staying connected in a digital world, setting aside money for unexpected events can feel like a challenge.

And insurance? That often gets pushed to the bottom of the priority list, right?

We get it. Life is expensive, and the thought of adding another bill can be daunting.

But what if we told you that protecting yourself from life's unexpected curveballs doesn't have to drain your account?

The Struggle is Real (But Insurance Doesn't Have to Be)

Let's face it: most of us are one unexpected medical bill or matatu accident away from a serious financial setback.

According to the "Equity Bancassurance Collaboration Nov 24" presentation, insurance penetration in Africa is half the global average, and Kenya's has declined since 2019. That's a scary statistic!

We know the stories: friends who've had to crowdfund for medical emergencies, businesses that have crumbled after a fire, or families left struggling after the loss of a loved one.

It's tough to think about, but being prepared is the ultimate boss move.
