In today's episode, we sit down with Lauren, a Florida native who works in healthcare administration. Lauren loves spending time with her cat, being outdoors, and wasn’t overly interested in politics leading up to the America in One Room event.

Lauren talks about how the pandemic has impacted her job in healthcare, her involvement in a misunderstanding — labeled as "The Incident" in our previous episode — involving another participant, and how the America in One Room experience has impacted her moving forward.
