Evelyn is on a well-deserved vacation for this episode, and she is missed! Fortunately, we arranged for our first ever interview with the rogue Sara Schmit---avid biker, street equity advocate, MA in Behavioral Health, Washington State licensed Substance Use Disorder Professional, and self-described average person to speak on a range of issues. Active transportation and infrastructure design are Sara’s passions!
We also talk psychology and how it permeates our abilities as humans dealing with issues as huge and daunting as climate change, as well as the types of personalities that run for office. We delve into navigating the labyrinth of co-governance between the county and the city, and Schmit weighs in on the Clark County Council and PUD races with us. It was a pleasure for you to join us, Schmitty!
