What role does mental health play in building success and generational wealth? We sit down with Dr. Troy Waller, a board-certified mental health specialist, to explore how mental well-being intersects with success, leadership, and wealth-building—especially in communities of color.

Dr. Waller dives deep into the unique pressures faced by Black professionals, from carrying the weight of representation to overcoming stigmas around seeking mental health support. We discuss the impact of internalized stress, the importance of therapy (or as we like to call it, "mental health coaching"), and strategies for fostering resilience and confidence. Dr. Waller also shares practical tips on setting boundaries, building a supportive network, and taking actionable steps to improve mental and physical health.

This candid and insightful conversation highlights the critical role of self-awareness and emotional well-being in creating a sustainable path to success.
