Generational Financial Trauma- "Mental Health IS Wealth" Podcast

In this powerful presentation and LIVE audience episode of Mental Health IS Wealth, we sit down with Dwan Dandridge, Founder and CEO of Black Leaders Detroit, for an honest and necessary conversation about the impact of generational financial trauma—and what it truly takes to heal, rebuild, and create pathways to business wealth.

Dwan breaks down how historical barriers, systemic inequities, and inherited financial patterns shape the way many entrepreneurs approach money, risk, leadership, and opportunity. Together, we explore how unaddressed financial trauma shows up in business decisions, confidence, and long‑term stability—and why healing is a critical part of building sustainable wealth.

Dwan blends mental wellness, community empowerment, and practical business insight, offering guests a deeper understanding of how emotional and financial health intersect. He also shares the mission behind Black Leaders Detroit and the organization’s commitment to equitable funding, community investment, and supporting entrepreneurs who have been historically overlooked.
