    Growing Up Wealthy: The Pressures No One Talks About with Joanna Sun

    In this episode of Making Wealth Meaningful, we sit down with Joanna Sun, Co-Founder of Emerald Family Enterprise Group and Expert in Residence of our Younger-Gen Program, to explore the realities facing the younger generation of families with significant wealth. Joanna unpacks three often-unspoken pressures:  • The burden of gratitude — when privilege can make it difficult to express frustration, uncertainty or ambition. • The question of readiness — and why succession shouldn't begin with a handover. • Equal vs fair — and why treating family members the same doesn't always create a fair outcome. We also explore "eldest son syndrome", the expectations that can come with birth order, and why having open conversations about ownership, responsibility and succession early can help families avoid deeper conflict later. For families of significant wealth, these conversations are rarely just about money. They are about identity, relationships, responsibility and what it means to build a future together. About PWN PWN is a trusted community for individuals and families of significant wealth across Australia and New Zealand.

    Purpose as Portfolio: A Family Office Guide to Blended Capital with Hanna Ebeling

    What if your capital could do more than one job at once? Richard Milroy, Co-Founder, PWN, talks with Hanna Ebeling, CEO, Social Enterprise Finance Australia (SEFA), about the deals mainstream banks won't fund — and the family offices, foundations, and investors stepping in instead. Hanna left private banking at HSBC for venture philanthropy in the Philippines. Now she builds "impact capital stacks" — blending grants, debt, and equity to fund organisations others write off as too risky. The proof: $50 million lent across 75 loans, one write-off. Inside this episode: a community-led funeral home funded by crowdfunding and a SEFA loan, a $5 million syndicate backing AI-powered health research, and the real reason advisers hesitate on impact investing — even when the numbers say they shouldn't. Plus: the "five capitals" families draw on beyond financial return, and what it actually means to measure wealth.
