Über diesen Titel

Telling the stories behind the impact—and the people building brighter futures.


The Brighter Futures Podcast by Rodman for Kids is where mission meets conversation. Hosted by the Rodman for Kids team, including Executive Director, Amy Rossman, and Marketing & Communications Manager, Jane Lima, each episode features authentic, inspiring stories from the people driving change for youth across Massachusetts—and beyond.


You'll hear honest conversations with those who are making a difference—nonprofit leaders, philanthropists, educators, youth participants, and members of the Rodman for Kids team—as we dive into the heart of what it takes to create lasting impact. From the evolution of our Theatre for Kids program to the legacy of the Rodman Ride for Kids and the partnerships powering our mission, we’re telling the stories that don’t always make the headlines—but make all the difference.


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

  • Growing While Doing Good: Learning, Leadership & Youth Nonprofits
    Feb 9 2026

    Whether you work in a nonprofit or not, growth doesn’t happen by accident. In the season 2 opener, we sit down with Jenna Williams, Rodman for Kids’ Charity Partnerships Program Manager, to talk about how youth nonprofits grow their people, plan for the future, and keep learning while doing really hard, meaningful work - and why those same ideas apply to anyone trying to grow, adapt, or lead with purpose.

  • Impact of the Arts on Kids
    Dec 15 2025

    At just 18 years old, Brenny O’Brien has already experienced the arts as both a lifeline and a launchpad. In this episode, she reflects on how early access to the arts transformed her dreams, helped her discover her voice, and built the community that now fuels her work with young artists.

    From growing up with South Boston Neighborhood House, to attending Boston Arts Academy, to founding South Stage Theatre Works and being inducted to our Theatre for Kids Hall of Fame, Brenny shows what’s possible when a child is not only welcomed into the arts, but empowered to lead within them.

  • Change Isn't Easy, But It Can Be Good
    Sep 14 2025

    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.
