In this episode, we take a hard look at the infamous black tax; the unspoken obligation that often keeps many in our communities from truly moving forward, the cultural expectation that can quietly drain our resources and stall our dreams.

While the dream is to build generational wealth and create opportunities for the next generation, the constant financial pull backwards can derail even the best-laid plans. Let’s unpack why this cycle exists, the toll it takes, and how we can start rewriting the narrative.
