What happens when a mom decides she’s tired of yelling from the sidelines and wants a seat at the table?

In this episode, I’m joined by my good friend Catelin Drey, founder of Moms for Iowa and newly sworn-in state senator, for a real conversation about the path from grassroots advocacy to elected office. We talk about what first lit the spark for her, why moms bring a critical (and often missing) perspective to policymaking, how it feels to have President Obama tweet about you, and what she’s learned stepping into her first legislative session.

We also dig into how community, relationships, and some very Midwestern traditions can be powerful entry points into advocacy. If you’ve ever wondered whether your voice actually matters, this conversation is for you.
