Ep. 38 Building a Legacy: Mawe Takyi on Leadership and Compassion

This week we are sharing Mawe Life’s incredible journey, from humble beginnings to becoming a powerful leader and changemaker. You won’t want to miss this inspiring story of grit, growth, and purpose.

1/15 Meet Mawe Takyi, a brilliant entrepreneur who is the founder and managing partner of Asempa Wealth Advisors in Baton Rouge. His story is one of resilience, inspiration, and leadership.

2/15 Born in Liberia to a family originally from Ghana, Mawe’s journey wasn’t easy. His family faced a civil war, forcing them to move back home to Ghana. His early life was shaped by incredible challenges.

3/15 One of Mawe’s greatest inspirations was his grandfather, an educator who built schools and worked as a Lutheran missionary. His perseverance and dedication left a lasting impact on Mawe.

4/15 Mawe shares tales of his grandfather’s hard work, fascinating stories, and encounters with notable figures like Eleanor Roosevelt. His grandfather’s legacy of leadership and education continues to guide him.

5/15 Despite challenges, Mawe always maintained a commitment to family and community. These values deeply influence his leadership style and his drive to make a positive impact wherever he goes.

6/15 As a leader, Mawe describes himself as evolving. Leadership isn’t static; it requires learning, growth, and listening to those around you. It’s about building better friendships and fostering goodwill.

7/15 So, what are Maui’s “Muddy Waters”? He shares powerful, personal stories of facing the fear of losing his mother and surviving a civil war. These experiences taught him about the importance of resilience and compassion.

8/15 Mawe’s advice to his younger self (and to all of us) is profound: Let go of fear, embrace challenges, and don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone. Success comes from taking risks and learning from mistakes.

9/15 In addition to his professional success, Mawe is passionate about giving back. From helping to eradicate polio to supporting cancer care, he’s deeply involved in his community and making a difference.

10/15 Mawe is part of Baton Rouge’s vibrant Rotary Club, one of the largest in the world. This involvement underscores his dedication to community service and making Baton Rouge a better place for future generations.

11/15 What’s next for Mawe and Asempa Wealth Advisors? More growth, more community engagement, and continued efforts to serve their clients with excellence. 

12/15 Mawe’s story is a testament to the power of perseverance, leadership, and the impact one person can make. His journey from “muddy waters” to clear vision is truly inspiring.
