Returning to our show to transparently dissect her own angel portfolio is Jaclyn Johnson. Jaclyn is a 2X exited entrepreneur (selling her previous companies for over $23M) and prolific angel investor creating real impact for underrepresented founders through both financial and relationship capital. She's the founder of Create & Cultivate, the largest media and events company for ambitious women, the current CEO and co-founder of Cherub, a platform connecting entrepreneurs and angel investors, and runs Receipts VC, her umbrella for 20+ portfolio investments spanning beauty to tech. Jaclyn walks us through her investing thesis and recent deals, what she looks for before writing a check, how much of her business profits she allocates annually toward angel investments, and her early-stage investment in luggage company Away that turned a $10K bet into $1.2 million.
