What does it take to protect a city, lead thousands, and stay grounded in purpose?

For Sheriff Rosie Cordero-Stutz, the first elected sheriff in Miami-Dade County in over 60 years, it started with a childhood calling and a single mom who worked three jobs to keep the dream alive. From patrolling high-crime streets in the 90s to leading 4,800 officers through today’s complex emergencies, Sheriff Rosie shares how faith, family, and fierce dedication guide her every decision.

In this episode of Common Denominator, we dive into Rosie’s remarkable rise to becoming one of the most powerful public safety officials in Florida.
