Banking on Better: Credit, Community & the Path to Homeownership

Ras Asan speaks with Lynn Johnson, a veteran bank manager, and Kevin Gaynor, a real estate expert, about the path to financial wellness and homeownership. Sponsored by the Phe’be Foundation, the show promotes the upcoming All Things Money Workshop, a free two-part series on budgeting, credit, and wealth building. Lynn emphasizes the power of financial relationships and repairing credit, while Kevin, who grew up in East Cleveland, shares insights on building long-term financial stability and dispels myths about homebuying—like needing 20% down. Both stress the importance of financial education, community support, and having a trusted banker in your corner.
