About this listen
What if the thing holding your workplace back isn’t a lack of strategy, but a love of comfort? In this episode, Rosie sits down with author M. Gabriela Alcalde to dive into her powerful new book “What Your Comfort Costs Us.”
Together, they explore why growth never happens inside the comfort zone, the crucial difference between comfort and true safety, and how culture change is really a team sport. Gabriela shares the “Four Cs” every workplace needs: curiosity, creativity, courage, and care. She also unpacks how our everyday structures and habits often carry hidden values that can hold people back.
Through storytelling, compassion, and a little healthy discomfort, this conversation challenges leaders to rethink what it means to build truly human workplaces where everyone can thrive.
