The REAL State of Our Union: Fighting Voter Suppression, Representation & Joy at the Winter Olympics, & More

March 2, 2026
On the radio show this week, we dive into the importance of protecting democracy from voter suppression efforts. We also hear about the powerful representation and joy we experienced at this year's Winter Olympics -- and how narrative power can shift societal views for women, moms, and our families.
