Beyond the campaign trail, Odinga founded and leads The BrickHouse Counsel, a communications consultancy, and has positioned herself as a forthright voice on youth, digital organising, and regional integration. After the 2022 election she publicly returned to her firm’s work, and following Raila Odinga’s death in October 2025 she signalled interest in refocusing on domestic politics—moves that underscore her profile as an emerging, consequential figure.
