Why is it that when other communities set up their children for success, it's called legacy—but when African American families do the same, it's called nepotism?

In this episode of Off-Balance, we unpack the tension around nepotism in the African American community and explore what the Bible really says about generational legacy. From Proverbs 13:22 to the lineage of David and Solomon, we’ll discover that setting up our children isn’t just cultural—it’s biblical.

Whether you're building a business, raising kingdom-minded kids, or redefining what success looks like for your family, this conversation will challenge you to think deeper about inheritance, responsibility, and the unapologetic act of blessing your children.

It’s time we stop shrinking our legacy to fit the world’s standards.
 Let’s build boldly—and pass it on.
