In this hilarious and heart-warming episode of Thoughts Between Shots, Rosa shares how a single mispronounced word in front of 3M executives turned into the best mistake of her career. From saying her electrical connector was ”belching” instead of ”bulging” to proudly owning the laughter in the room, Rosa’s story is a masterclass in confidence, humor, and belonging.
