This week we're talking everybody's favorite topic- local politics! But legitimately, it's something that's becoming more important by the day and actually far more fulfilling and invigorating than you may initially think.

We invited our friend Britt (many of you know her as @thebrittbee) to have this conversation with us as she's been such a great example of this since the beginning of the year. Topics covered include:

• Why it's so important to be positively fighting for what we want, not merely be fighting against what we dislike
• Embracing the courage it takes to let the people in your life know that you're not down with authoritarianism
• The power of clubs in fostering community and personal growth
• Her mantra of "Good Always Wins"
• Matriarchy and the vibes we could use more of
• And MORE!
