Transforming Human Capital with Lazetta Braxton

While a lot of companies talk the talk, only a handful ever walk the walk and stand by their promises to be inclusive towards minorities. While indeed the world is changing, the fight is far from over to have financial education and opportunities available to our people.

For this episode, I’ve invited Lazetta Braxton, co-CEO of 2050 Wealth Partners, and a social entrepreneur that aims to amplify diversity, inclusion, and equality in the financial planning profession. It is through her own consulting firm, Lazetta & Associates, that she is able to create her own change by employing a “no fear, no shame” zone so her employees and associates feel like they are in a safe space.


The change begins with you, so hop in on this episode and check out how Lazetta can help!
