John Hope Bryant- successful entrepreneur, executive and philanthropist –will dispense his trademark ‘Straight Talk’ lessons on developing a wealth-building mindset, specifically how the Black community never got “the memo” on money – essentially how to survive and thrive in a free enterprise system.



While often provocative, Bryant will unpack the issues of the day, along with practical advice on how listeners will not only improve their current financial position, but learn how to grow and create personal wealth for themselves and their families.



Episodes will mostly feature Bryant speaking directly to the audience, with occasional guests ranging from “person on the street” interviews with inspirational individuals Bryant encounters in his travels around the world, or from his network of some of world’s most extraordinary people.

In one of the most powerful conversations ever recorded on Money and Wealth, John Hope Bryant sits down with His Excellency Omar Sultan Al Olama — the world’s first Minister of Artificial Intelligence — for a visionary dialogue on leadership, technology, and the future of humanity.

From growing up in a startup nation to helping shape global AI policy, Minister Al Olama shares how the UAE is planning not just for tomorrow — but for the next 100 years. Together, John and Omar unpack how artificial intelligence is already reshaping jobs, power, education, economies, and human identity itself.

They explore why AI is not just technology, but infrastructure… why intelligence plus everything is the next gold rush… and why the choices we make today will define generations yet unborn.

This is not a tech interview.
This is a blueprint for the future.

Homeownership is still the number one way to build wealth in America—but for too many people, the path feels confusing, risky, or out of reach. In this powerful and deeply personal episode of Money and Wealth, John Hope Bryant breaks down why financial literacy is the civil rights issue of our generation and how ownership can be made actionable for everyday people.

John is joined by Operation HOPE financial coach Lester and HOPE client Leanne Brown, who shares her real-life journey from renting and struggling with credit to becoming a proud homeowner in Memphis, Tennessee. Together, they unpack the mistakes many of us were never taught to avoid, the myths around credit and mortgages, and how mindset, discipline, and the right guidance can change not just finances—but entire family legacies.

This episode goes beyond theory. It’s a step-by-step, lived example of how budgeting, credit repair, and financial coaching can move people from survival mode to stability, from stress to confidence, and from access to true ownership.

If you’ve ever thought homeownership wasn’t for you—or didn’t know where to start—this conversation is proof that wealth is not about luck or privilege, but about knowledge, action, and support. This is what hope with a business plan looks like.
