The financial industry is slowly recognizing the racial wealth gap and the factors that contribute to them. If not properly addressed, these gaps will widen and make it challenging for marginalized communities to catch up. Enter Dr. Margaret Akinhanmi. She is a speaker, financial wellness coach, and scientist that helps women and minorities develop a firm financial foundation in order to build wealth. She received her doctorate in Biomedical Sciences at the Mayo Clinic, specializing in health disparities – which is where she discovered how health disparities are driven by lack of access to wealth. This inspired her to develop a holistic approach to overall financial health.

Dr. Akinhanmi specializes in financial wellness and advocates for wealth education as a means to improve health. She is an expert facilitator that helps people transform their money mindset by teaching them how to leverage the fear, confusion, and overwhelm that comes with building wealth. Her courses and programs help break the vicious cycle of living paycheck to paycheck and gain the confidence to manage money better. Her mission is to create more financially whole individuals and she wants to invite you on the journey. When Dr. Akinhanmi isn’t wound up in issues of health and wealth, she can be found unwinding with food and friends at her favorite local hot spots or hibernating at home with Hulu or YouTube
