 Live from the isolved booth at SHRM in San Diego, William Tincup and Ryan Leary sit down with two guests who’ve never met—but leave with a shared outlook on HR leadership, family, and purpose. Brock Arnold and Rita Kusi bring two powerful, personal takes on what it means to be a “people hero”—and how life, work, and service intersect when you’re truly committed to others. Rita shares how she left her corporate job and moved back to Ghana to build an HR consultancy from the ground up. She talks about her passion for remote team development and the power of global inclusion. Brock opens up about the emotional impact of his son’s leukemia diagnosis and how it reshaped his values. That moment sparked the creation of Thrive Life Project, a nonprofit helping families facing trauma find peace and connection through healthy meals and hands-on activities. This one hits hard—and sticks with you. It’s about listening better, caring deeper, and remembering what really matters when the noise fades away.
