Change isn’t always easy, but it’s often where the most meaningful growth begins. In this episode, Amy and Jane open up about the bold choices Rodman for Kids has made in its 35th year, from reimagining a decades-old event calendar to launching a fresh new brand identity.

Together, they reflect on the power of collaboration and why this podcast was created - to connect, share, and build brighter futures in partnership with others. And through it all, they remind us that when you stay rooted in your mission, even the biggest changes feel less daunting.

Because real transformation doesn’t just happen, it’s built on empowerment, connection, and the courage to stay true to your purpose.

Welcome to The Brighter Futures Podcast, where we shine a light on the partnerships, programs, and people building brighter futures for kids.

Because brighter futures don’t just happen. They’re built - together.
