#42 Nazi wealth and The Hour Before Dawn: Iris Brilliant confronts the past

What happens when inherited wealth carries not just privilege,
but trauma? In this powerful episode, we speak with Iris
Brilliant—Enoughness Wealth Coach and founder of The Hour
Before Dawn—about the moral and psychological dilemmas facing
young inheritors, especially those whose wealth is linked to the
Nazi regime.


From her own experience growing up in the wealthy enclaves of
California to working with next-generation wealth holders in
Germany, Iris shares how silence, shame, and denial shape the
lives of the affluent—and how new collectives are creating space
for truth, responsibility, and reparative action.


We explore questions like: What does it mean to have “enough”?
Why do so many wealthy people feel unsafe? And how can we shift
from guilt to accountability? This conversation confronts family
legacies, the wealth defense industry, and the deep discomfort
required to unlock money for the public good.
