What if leading change didn’t have to feel like dragging people uphill in a snowstorm, but instead felt like inviting them on a mission they actually want to join? 🎯 In this episode, Rosie chats with Summer Miller, a self-described logical, linear thinker who has mastered the art of leading change with heart. 🩷

From massive corporate transformations to her own journey of building empathy muscle, Summer brings the receipts on what it really takes to guide people through disruption. Think: fewer mandates, more conversations. Fewer top-down decisions, more fingerprints from your team. They unpack why most change efforts fall flat and how to reframe change as growth by focusing on connection, curiosity, and communication.

Whether you're leading a company, a team, or just trying to navigate your own next chapter, this episode is full of practical gems you'll actually use. ✨
