Business ownership is a pathway often filled with obstacles and disruption. Whether natural disasters, market changes, or changes at the government level, Black business owners often navigate tough terrain as we develop innovative and creative ways to keep going and growing.

After the Storm: How Black Businesses Rebuild, Reinvent & Outlast Disruption is a necessary conversation on what it means to be resilient and resourceful when overcoming business disruption.

This week on Return On Impact podcast, our series hosts, Kevan & Ayesha Shelton, sit down with the 2026 Pinnacle Award Finalists: Yolanda Henry of Nuksy's Ventures, Rashid Tillis of Right Time Solutions, and Teeba Rose of The Community Collective; and 2026 Endurance Award finalist Shanquita Simply of Scents Candle.

Additionally, the 2025 Mickey Leland Public Leadership Award finalists—Derek Holmes (Harris Health), Ingrid Robinson (HMSDC), and John Nicklos (Juneteenth Houston)—join the conversation to explore how purpose-driven leadership creates lasting impact across Houston.
