Driven by Purpose

In this episode, Evan Rosenblum shares his raw and emotional journey from TMZ executive producer to special needs advocate. We dive into how his daughter Sydney's traumatic birth at 25 weeks changed everything, why he turned down a multimillion-dollar contract extension at TMZ, the moment he realized work was literally killing him (panic attacks in his sleep), how accepting his daughter's cerebral palsy transformed their relationship, the harsh reality that most special needs marriages end in divorce, and why he's now dedicated to being a resource for families navigating the special needs world.

In this episode, Mike Ghesser opens up about how becoming a father to daughter Rosie (who has a migrational disorder) transformed his business approach and life purpose. We explore what "falling off the cliff" means for disabled students after graduation, how Mike decided to create the workplace he wanted for his daughter rather than hope one would exist, why asking employees "what do you need?" led to simple $2 solutions that changed everything, the power of psychological safety in creating inclusive workplaces, and how 40% of their workforce disclosed disabilities - then grew to 54% as more felt safe to share.

We dive into why he chose expensive Braille packaging when only 12% of blind people read Braille, how his company went four years without a workplace injury after hiring people with disabilities, the economic benefits of inclusive hiring that most companies miss, why fear is the #1 barrier to disability employment, and how the new Inspiration Seal aims to create 6 million jobs for people with disabilities.
