Welcome to The Georgia Politics Podcast! On this episode, we sit down with State Rep. Betsy Holland for an in-depth conversation about the experiences and values that shaped her path to public service.

Rep. Holland shares stories from her upbringing and the influences that helped shape her worldview, as well as how her professional career prepared her for a role in the Georgia General Assembly. We talk about what first sparked her interest in politics and the challenges and lessons that came with campaigning and serving in the legislature.

The conversation also dives into the issues she is most passionate about and the policy areas she is focused on during the current legislative session. From the priorities she's working to advance at the Capitol to the concerns she hears most often from constituents back home, Rep. Holland explains what drives her work under the Gold Dome and what she hopes to accomplish during her time in office.

It's a wide-ranging discussion about leadership, public service, and the realities of serving in state government in Georgia.
