In this episode, Dr. Jay sits down with Pete Krull, a pioneer in sustainable investing, to unpack what it really means to align your money with your values. They explore how ESG has become politicized, what the media gets wrong about ethical investing, and why ‘green hushing’ might be the most honest thing happening in finance right now.
Whether you’re new to ESG or skeptical of it, this episode offers a grounded, practical look at how your portfolio can reflect the future you want to see—without losing sight of performance.
