Mentorship isn't just about giving advice from the top down—it's about creating intentional, reciprocal relationships that spark growth, belonging, and transformation in organizations.

In this powerful episode, Hannah Chapman, CFP®, APMA®, CRPC®, founder of X² Wealth Planning and Expansive CEO, sits down with Dr. Kelly Diggs, neuroscientist turned leadership consultant and CEO of Kelly A. Diggs Consulting. Together, they dive deep into what mentorship really means in business, institutions, and everyday life, and how it can reshape culture, equity, and the future of organizations.

Dr. Diggs shares her journey from the lab bench to becoming a nationally recognized consultant in mentorship, leadership, and DEI (justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion), and offers practical insight into how mentorship impacts careers, succession planning, institutional success, and even the bottom line.

Topics covered:

• What mentorship is really—and how it is different from the outdated “top-down” model

• How mentorship creates reciprocal growth and not just transactional relationships

• The role mentorship plays in equity, belonging, and institutional culture

• How effective mentorship directly impacts business succession, retention, and profits

• How leaders can lean into “productive discomfort” to foster deeper conversations and change

• Practical ways to bring mentorship into our daily lives, both at work and at home

What happens when the Federal Reserve hints at rate cuts, mortgage rates hover near 7%, and AI data centers begin straining America's power grid?

In this week's Investment Friday, Hannah Chapman, CFP®, APMA®, CRPC®, and Brad Haines, CFA, FRM, and CIO of Juncture Wealth Strategies, unpack the economic signals that are moving markets — and what they mean for investors.

From Jerome Powell's Jackson Hole speech to small-cap stock rallies, rising utility bills, and the looming question of whether AI is a bubble bigger than the dot-com era, Hannah and Brad bring clarity to a noisy news cycle.

• Why did markets rally after Jerome Powell's Jackson Hole speech?

• How do bond prices and yields really work — and what do they mean for mortgages?

• Will homeowners be able to refinance at lower rates in the next 12–18 months?

• How are AI data centers reshaping electricity demand, utility pricing, and private equity investment?

• Could AI be a bigger bubble than the dot-com era — or is it the next “Goldilocks” growth phase?

• What adjacent industries might benefit most from the AI infrastructure boom?
