About this listen

Are you working yourself to death? At just 48 years old, Justin Grant’s uncle, Juan Simpson, passed away suddenly from a heart attack. He was fit, he seemed healthy, and yet his life was cut short, leaving behind more questions than answers. The loss shook Justin, setting him on a 23-year journey to understand why Black men like his uncle were dying too soon. As he climbed the corporate ladder himself, from a young journalist to an executive at the world’s largest bank, he began to see the connection: the relentless pressure, the unspoken stress, the silent toll of Working While Black.
