In this episode of I Am Refocused Radio, Shemaiah Reed sits down with Kelly Price, Founder of Thrive HR, for a real-world conversation about what HR looks like when it’s done right, not just “paperwork and payroll.”
Kelly shares her journey from Marriott International to becoming a VP of HR, and what she learned early that still drives her leadership today: people don’t want excuses, they want solutions, and they want to feel heard.
This episode gets into the stuff most employees never see, like the pressure executives carry, the stress behind toxic work environments, and why HR must align with revenue, growth goals, and the real mission of the company. Kelly also breaks down why onboarding is a game-changer, how trust collapses inside a toxic culture, and the warning signs that your people strategy is drifting away from your business goals.
