In this episode of A Mental Health Conversation, Brittany Krystantos sits down with Franklin Asante—an expert in financial management whose work is directly tied to improving mental health. Franklin is a private banker, author, and entrepreneur, and he teaches financial literacy to his social media followers. His transformative approach not only helps individuals improve their financial well-being but also alleviates the mental stress that often accompanies financial strain.

 

It’s no secret that financial stress can be overwhelming, and unfortunately, financial hardship is one of the leading causes of suicide among adults. That’s why I’m particularly excited for this conversation—because the more we understand about the connection between financial health and mental health, the better equipped we’ll be to support each other and prevent tragic outcomes. Franklin will share valuable insights on how to avoid financial burdens that can ultimately impact our mental health.
