Prioritizing Health & Wellness: DBMG’s Commitment to Black Men’s Wellbeing

For Black men navigating demanding careers, family responsibilities, and social challenges, health and wellness often take a backseat. At DBMG, we know that true success includes a commitment to physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing.

The Stats Speak VolumesBlack men have the lowest life expectancy of any racial or gender group in the U.S.
We face disproportionate rates of:

• Hypertension
  
• Diabetes
  
• Prostate cancer
  
• Mental health concerns—often untreated due to stigma and lack of access
  

And these aren’t just “health problems”—they’re barriers to our full potential.

How DBMG RespondsOur Health & Wellness Team creates space for education, accountability, and real change through:
✅ Quarterly Health Screenings
✅ Monthly Check-ins for mental health and stress support
✅ Fitness Accountability Partners among members
✅ Wellness Retreats that address burnout and balance
We’re building a culture where wellness isn’t a luxury—it’s a necessity.

Wellness Strategies That WorkHere’s what we encourage our brothers to do:

• Treat your annual physical like a business meeting—don’t miss it
  
• Use "walk and talk" meetings when you can
  
• Commit to Meal Prep Sundays—share recipes, swap ideas, support each other
  
• Find a mental health coach or therapist you trust
  
• Share health information within your household—normalize the conversation
  

​Your Health Is a Community AssetWhen you’re well, you lead better. Mentor better. Father better. Serve better.
That’s why DBMG invests in our members’ wellness—because your health fuels your purpose.
