In this deeply moving episode of BrightIAM, we sit down with two extraordinary women - Cerri McDonald and Rosee Elliot - whose personal journeys through life and inspirational spirit would lift that mountain off of the ground. We talk bullying, exclusion, and self-discovery, looking at how empowerment, change and challenge has shaped their lives.

Cerri, a creative force and advocate for change, inspired to climb by her daughter’s experience and recent life changes and Rosee, a passionate voice for inclusion, healing and fashion, at 75 Rosee jumps from planes and climbs mountains – an inspiration to all. They open up about the moments that defined them – looking at playground cruelty to workplace discrimination, they share how bullying leaves scars and how those scars can become fuel for transformation.
