Coming Out with Grace: A Conversation with Kelley on Life, Leadership & Retirement

In this episode of The Rosemilk Podcast, I’m joined by someone who’s had a quiet but lasting influence on my life: Kelley, my former manager and one of the most grounded leaders I’ve had the privilege to work with.

This conversation is personal, powerful, and deeply human. We talk about:

• How Kelley’s life experiences shaped her leadership

• The kind of leader she chose to be (and why it mattered)

• What it really feels like to step away from decades of work into retirement

• And how we can all redefine success and purpose on our own terms

If you’re someone who’s navigating change, rethinking leadership, or simply reflecting on what the next chapter of your life could look like—this one’s for you.

Thank you for listening, as always.#LeadershipJourney
