Our guest Britt Larsen shares her perspective and experience from years of working in Washington D.C. and for a former Florida State Governor. We talk about divine interests and allowing the Holy Ghost to inspire us in how to get involved while also keeping our perspective on the Savior. We discuss how to interact with and influence our immediate circles, especially those who may affiliate differently than we do. Thoughts are shared from a non-partisan perspective throughout, and the golden nuggets we talk about are applicable to individuals on any side of the political aisle!

Britt uses her years of executive management experience and expertise in media training to support others looking to make a change in their career; whether it be discovering a new industry, finding a new job, preparing for interviews or getting a promotion. She founded Livlyhood, a community for women who work, in 2017 as a blog featuring women from diverse professional backgrounds, and has since grown the space into a premier community for working women and thriving career coaching business for people of all backgrounds. (You can find Livlyhood on Facebook, and Instagram as well!)

Early in her career, Britt Larsen became the Director of Communications for a prominent Congressman in Washington, DC. During the 2012 presidential election, she managed the communications efforts during the Iowa Caucus and led strategy for her boss as he moderated the CNN South Carolina Presidential Candidate Debate.

From DC, she was recruited to be the Director of Communications under the Governor of Florida. She served as the Department of State Public Information Officer overseeing state elections and the on-camera official spokeswoman and speechwriter for the Secretary of State and agency of over 600 employees.
