This podcast is for you if you're a member of the next generation of a family connected to wealth. Not one of those who created it, but one of those who will one day inherit responsibility for it. It is based on the session notes of mentoring sessions I recently shared with a remarkable young woman, Clara, heiress to a substantial european enterprise, as she prepared herself to take more responsibility.

If you have grown up around a family enterprise, significant capital, or a well known name, like she did, you may already have a sense that your life will be shaped by something you did not design. Expectations exist. Structures are in place. Decisions are being made. And yet very little is explained from your perspective.

The short episodes offer real help on your journey. Across them we look at identity, pressure, governance, family dynamics, credibility, and the gradual shift from observer to participant.

A new episode is uploaded every 2 days. I hope that they help.

  • Epilogue: for the parents.
    May 20 2026

    In this deeply personal final episode of The NextGen Mentor, I'm making a direct appeal to those parents, founders and trustees: help your next generation now, before the responsibility arrives. Beneath wealth often sit uncertainty, silence and fear of inadequacy, and I show you how how trust, honest conversation, gradual inclusion and emotional support can transform your inheritance from a burden into something meaningful, human, and ultimately sustainable across generations. Your legacy.

  • 19. And finally - Stewardship.
    May 18 2026

    This final episode explores the moment wealth stops feeling like inheritance and becomes responsibility. We look at stewardship as the preservation of continuity, capability, trust and judgement across generations, and why enduring families are sustained not through control or perfection, but through thoughtful engagement, adaptability and long-term responsibility.

  • 18. What does adding value actually mean?
    May 16 2026

    What does it really mean to add value inside a wealthy family? In this episode we explore why contribution is about far more than working in the family business. We look at identity, guilt, visibility, relationships and long-term stewardship, and why authentic contribution often looks very different from inherited expectation.
