Mediocrity Should Stop Being Celebrated | Bread & Butter Podcast - Ep 55 FT. Kennie Bukky
This week, we’re joined by the incredible Kennie Bukky!
She shares her powerful story, from arriving in the UK at age 10, hustling with paper rounds to earn her own money, and eventually stepping into the world of hair. Kennie learned the value of delayed gratification early on, saving her school bus money by walking to school, an early sign of the financial discipline that would shape her journey.
We dive into how her relentless drive led to her first role in finance, and how the power of community played a key role in unlocking one of the biggest opportunities of her career. She also opens up about her viral moment and the experience of buying her first property, including both the praise and criticism that came with it, and how she used it all as fuel to keep pushing forward.
Kennie’s story is one of strength, resilience, and purpose, and this episode is packed with gems you don’t want to miss.
As always, we wrap up with her Cream and Crust of the week.
