So we were planning on taking a break this week but then an amazing interview opportunity came our way, so welcome to our first ever bonus episode! In Episode 103 of Edit Your Life, Christine interviews Kentucky Congressional candidate Amy McGrath. In this wide-ranging, personal conversation, they talk about:
- finding and using your voice
- the simplest ways parents can support kids
- the challenges of being a woman in a male-dominated field
- the pivotal moment that led to her decision to run for Congress
- the key non-partisan issues Amy cares about
- how people can best support candidates
- and how she’s juggling campaign life with being a mom of 3 kids 5 and under.
