Meet Brittany Rogars—speaker, author, entrepreneur, and creator of the Pivot With Purpose Playbook. Her mission? To help women and professionals break free from burnout, rewrite their stories, and build lives rooted in purpose.

Raised in a family impacted by addiction, Brittany learned early how powerful cycles can be—and how transformational it is to break them. In 2019, the sudden loss of her best friend to addiction became a defining moment. In her friend’s memory, Brittany launched a handcrafted soap company that donated to addiction recovery efforts.

Brittany’s story is one of grit and growth: from gas station clerk to CEO, from soap maker to dental consultant, from surviving to thriving. When she lost her sense of smell, she didn’t crumble—she pivoted, launching SKF Practice Solutions to help dental teams operate with more clarity and ease. Today, she empowers others to transform pain into purpose with humor, heart, and no-BS strategies that make real change inevitable.
