In this episode, Jewel sits down with Cortez Johnson to break down the full lifecycle of a corporation—from startup to growth, maturity, exit, and decline—unpacking how companies are built, scaled, and ultimately transformed through capital, strategy, and market forces. Drawing from his experience in M&A and finance, Cortez reveals how each phase reshapes executive roles, from early-stage hustle to structured growth, high-pressure exits, and turnaround environments, giving Black executives a clearer lens on how to position themselves inside the systems that drive power, wealth, and long-term opportunity.
