On May 2nd, Politico released a leaked draft of the Supreme Court opinion, indicating that the court in a 5-4 vote would overturn Roe v. Wade— a 50-year precedent for abortion rights in America. In our podcast meeting that week we talked about current events and the conversation seemed to be overwhelmingly focused on our feelings of helplessness. “What can we do?” Was the question we kept coming back to.

For answers, we turned to Sophia Andary whose titles are many, including Commissioner of the County and City of San Francisco on the Commission on the Status of Women, Co-Founder and Advisor of Women’s March San Francisco, Board Member of Alliance for Girls and more. Sophia talks to us about turning passion into actions, the importance of long-term engagement, and why reposting on social media or sharing a selfie at a single march leaves us feeling unfulfilled. Learn with us what it means to really stand up for the things you believe in.
