Rates of depression, anxiety and suicidal ideation among college students are at an all-time high. And while students of all backgrounds face similar levels of mental health challenges, ethnically diverse students are far less likely to seek treatment. That gap is due to factors including lack of access to a diverse selection of counselors; cultural stigmas surrounding mental health; and the cost of care. The need for more robust mental healthcare continues once students transition into the workforce. On this episode, we hear from Diana Chao, a graduate student and the executive director and founder of Letters 2 Strangers, a global, youth-run mental health nonprofit that emerged from Diana's own battle with mental illness. Then, host Carla Harris sits with Evan Rose, co-founder of The Steve Fund, the leading organization in the U.S. focused on supporting the mental health and emotional wellbeing of young people of color, and a non-profit member of the Morgan Stanley Alliance for Mental Health. They discuss the work that The Steve Fund is doing to offer a roadmap for higher education institutions and companies to create accessible mental healthcare solutions for their students and colleagues, respectively.For more information about the Steve Fund, go to https://stevefund.org.

With advances in technology, the music industry is changing faster than ever. Streaming services add more than 100,000 new songs every day. In this environment, artists' ability to market and distribute their own work brings a lot of opportunity.

A 2022 analysis issued by consulting firm Oliver Wyman found a shortfall of 8,000 pilots in North America, or 11% of the total workforce. That gap is estimated to grow to nearly 30,000 by the end of the decade. In their pursuits to staff up and meet new hiring goals, there is an opportunity for commercial airlines in the United States to diversify an industry that has a legacy of being overtly white and male by breaking down the barriers to entry.

On this episode, we discuss the lack of representation in the video game industry, from the stories that get told in games to the people who get to make them.

An extreme funding gap exists for Black female entrepreneurs who, in 2021, received merely 0.34% of the total venture capital spent in the U.S. in the first half of the year, according to Crunchbase. And while more concerted efforts to diversify capital allocation have come out of these jarring figures, the community of adequately funded Black female founders remains incredibly small.On this episode, we speak with one of the select few Black female founders who got her funding. In 2021, Monique Rodriguez, founder and CEO of Mielle Organics, broke the glass ceiling for Black female founders, inking a nine-figure, non-controlling investment deal with Berkshire Partners. She shares how she turned her passion for women's health and a nursing background into a global beauty business, and discusses how her atypical path into entrepreneurship became her biggest asset. Then, host Carla Harris sits down with Monique to discuss the obstacles and opportunities that lie ahead for her as a leader at this pivotal juncture of scaling Mielle. And Carla draws upon leadership insights from her latest book, Lead to Win.https://www.morganstanley.com/what-we-do/inclusive-innovation-and-opportunity Disclaimer textThe guest speakers are neither employees nor affiliated with Morgan Stanley & Co.

A Wall Street veteran who has been named one of the most powerful Black executives in America, Carla's worked across multiple industries in her 30+ year career, and was appointed by President Barack Obama to chair the National Women's Business Council.

The barriers to entering and staying in the workforce are complex for disabled people, and magnified for disabled people with additional marginalized identities. This results in long term impacts to their household wealth: in the United States, the median net worth among households with adult members with a disability is $33,318 less than the national median, according to a report from Prosperity Now. On this episode, we learn how unemployment drives the disability wealth gap and how advocates and entrepreneurs are working to drive change for the betterment of the disabled community. First we hear from disability scholar and advocate D'Arcee Charington Neal, who draws on his lived experience as a disabled Black person in order to advise companies to reduce ableism and racis in the workplace. Then, host Carla Harris speaks with Inclusively co-founder and CEO, Charlotte Dales, about how their technology is making it easier for companies to hire disabled people.https://www.morganstanley.com/what-we-do/inclusive-innovation-and-opportunity Disclaimer textThe guest speakers are neither employees nor affiliated with Morgan Stanley & Co.

On this episode of Our American Stories, it's hard to believe that something wonderful could come out of a family's house, filled with presents, decorations, food, and memories, being completely blown away by a tornado just days before Christmas.

A recent survey commissioned by Nova Credit found that nearly half of immigrants said a U.S. credit card is hard to obtain. Without a credit card or any type of credit history to their name, immigrants are likely to find themselves identified as “credit invisible” and unable to establish their financial identities. On this episode, we learn from those with firsthand experience navigating the American credit system as immigrants and how they're channeling lessons-learned into solutions that are making the pool of creditworthy people more inclusive. First, we hear from Kristy Kim, co-founder and CEO of TomoCredit. As a young South Korean immigrant, Kristy was unable to get approved for a car loan simply because she didn't have credit history. This sparked her idea to create Tomo, a credit card for those with no credit or poor credit that aims to help them build a better score, faster. Then, host Carla Harris is in conversation with Wemimo Abbey and Samir Goel, two business partners who were inspired by their own immigrant-centered upbringings to break down the barriers that not having a credit score poses. Through their company Esusu, Wemimo and Samir developed technology that shares monthly rent payments with the three major credit bureaus, expanding the types of reportable data used to help immigrants build their credit score.https://www.morganstanley.com/what-we-do/inclusive-innovation-and-opportunityDisclaimer textThe guest speakers are neither employees nor affiliated with Morgan Stanley & Co.

In May of 2022, the U.S. Soccer Federation agreed to a landmark deal awarding equal pay for the women and men of the US National Soccer teams. On this episode, we look at what this move means for other women's leagues charting the same course towards equity in pay and beyond. First, we hear from Los Angeles Sparks player Nneka Ogwumike about her path to becoming a decorated player in the WNBA and how she's using her platform to engage the league in conversations about equity. Nneka also talks about the importance of unifying all women's sports leagues to collectively push forward progress for all. Then, host Carla Harris sits down with venture capitalist Kara Nortman, owner of Angel City FC, a women-owned soccer team that is raising the bar for investment across the league.

In America, real estate investment has been the primary way for people to build wealth that they can sustain and pass down to their children. But the vast majority of those who get a piece of the real estate pie are white men. Real estate investment has a long history of systemic inequity due in part to racist lending practices and exclusionary urban planning Despite the challenges, there are BIPOC entrepreneurs working to change the exclusivity of this industry. On this episode, we hear from two individuals working to make real estate investing more accessible. First, we hear from real estate consultant Lisa Phillips about how she turned her initial failure in real estate investing into a successful consulting business helping other Black professionals navigate an industry that kept them out. Then host Carla Harris sits down with Ryan Williams, Founder and Executive Chairman of Cadre. Ryan discusses what inspired him to create the fintech platform and how it aims to democratize real estate investment.https://www.morganstanley.com/what-we-do/inclusive-innovation-and-opportunity Disclaimer textThe guest speakers are neither employees nor affiliated with Morgan Stanley & Co.

Too many people in the U.S., particularly those from communities of color, live in geographic areas that have little to no access to an affordable and adequate supply of healthy and fresh whole foods. Unequal access to quality food has ripple effects across health, performance in school, and ultimately, the ability to generate wealth. On this episode, we learn about how food industry professionals are working to eliminate food deserts across the country. First we hear from entrepreneur Cassandria Campbell, who co-founded Fresh Food Generation in Boston after moving back to the area in her early 20s and finding that there still weren't many places to get a quick, healthy, delicious meal. Then, host Carla Harris speaks with Something Better Foods founder and CEO, Chef GW Chew, about scaling his plant-based food manufacturing business in order to make securing fresh food a reality for all people. https://www.morganstanley.com/what-we-do/inclusive-innovation-and-opportunity Disclaimer textThe guest speakers are neither employees nor affiliated with Morgan Stanley & Co.
