Dr. Obari Cartman, a psychologist based in Chicago, curates mental wellness events for black men and boys, incorporating art, culture, and community access. He emphasizes the importance of authenticity and staying true to oneself in his work. Mentorship has played a critical role in his life, and he believes in the power of collaboration and allowing others to shine their brightest. Dr. Cartman acknowledges the challenges faced by black men in a system that was not designed for their success, both in general and within his industry. He measures success by the impact he has on his community and the positive changes he sees in young people.
