Hello Everyone!

Today, Ben Ulansey and I welcomed congressional candidate Laura Benjamin. You can find out more about her on her website, or by clicking on the image below:

This was a wonderful talk. I’m trying to make more of an effort to encourage everyone of all ages to participate in the primaries. Remember that some of the earliest primaries start in March of 2026. As far as I’m concerned, the primaries are perhaps the best options we have for completely reforming our government.

This is the second time I’ve had an opportunity to speak with Laura Benjamin and I think she’s wonderful. It’s empowering to talk with political candidates and make sure they are aware of all the issues that are of importance to voters. America is a diverse country, and we need diverse solutions. If you want to check out my other talk with Laura, you can find it here (this is from before my girls gave me a hair cut):

Also, please share this interview to anyone you can think of. Imagine a government comprised of people who were compassionate and realistic about the problems we face. Imagine a government that worked to ensure our needs were met and helped us all on the pathway to prosperity.

We can have that. It starts with all of you! Please help me get the word out, share, restack, comment, and like!

My takeaway from this talk was that we have to be mindful that the rage we see on social media doesn’t reflect what’s in most people’s hearts. Take detox days (you need them), and get out there and forge connections in your community. We are not alone!

Thanks to my two excellent guests!
