Have you ever looked around at where you are, where you work, what you get the privilege of doing every day and thought... "Wow, how did I get here?" or "Wow, thank you God I am here!"  If you have, or you'd like to be able to do so, you'll want to listen in!

In this episode, Erica Wright shares how she unexpectedly landed in the sought after, influential world of lobbying at the State government level and what she's learned along the way. While the government is still a very male dominated area, Erica is stepping into the world of advocacy with an attitude and approach that sets her apart and has legislators seeking her out even though she's fairly new!

"When you talk about racial diversity, people think you're calling them a racist and you're not." This quote you'll hear from Erica in the interview aptly describes the wisdom she's applied in her career journey and speaks to her ability to see past obstacles that she's overcome in her career path. 

And what REALLY is lobbying? Is it like what you see in the movies? Find that out here, too, with Erica.
