Being part of the next generation has special advantages and challenges. Often, you may find yourself in the dark about what exactly is expected of you and what are you allowed to receive, or how well will you be able to deal with the responsibilities that come with it. You may also find yourself uncertain of your skills, capabilities, and knowledge about the family’s wealth landscape.

Nonetheless, communicating about money is often a taboo in most families and therefore you find yourself unclear about many aspects of your family’s financial situation, or your place in the family business. Others struggle with their life purpose and the vision for their future. Sometimes the feeling of uncertainty, sadness, emptiness, anxiousness, sham, or guilty sets in, and for reasons that most do not understand.

You are not alone. Many NextGen clients Dr. Lami has worked with have experienced these challenges and have been guided on how to resolve and overcome them.
