I know I have been absent for a while, but this was just too important of a conversation to have not to make time for it. I hope you learn something, and not just anxiety inducing stuff, but something to be hopeful for. You'll likely recall our recent brush with seismic activity - that should be our wake up call. That's the message candidate and guest Bill Burch is arguing, and you'll be glad someone with this much industry knowledge and experience is ready to push us onto a better path. Check out the convo and then check out more info on Bill below.

This conversation has been a long time coming for me, though y'all may not know that. My own personal journey through politics has not been entirely separate from my journey through personal spirituality. I've working towards helping get El Paso get more engaged, more involved, and ultimately to raise our collective consciousness and address our concerns together. If anyone was ever an arbiter of changing the consciousness on governance, it's today's guest, author, spiritual teacher, and Presidential candidate: Marianne Williamson. I found this conversation to be uplifting and inspiring, I hope you do too.

Ron is one of those community members who definitely remind you that there are some amazing El Pasoans out there who are doing good work and defending the defenseless simply out of the goodness if their heart. This episode, our guest, Ron Comeau shares his story and struggle against a corrupted system that was resulting, and is still resulting, in countless dead strays on the streets of El Paso.  Through constant and determined advocacy and sheer will, Ron and others have pushed El Paso leadership into bolder strategies in resolving our animal services issues, but now more of us need to get involved to get things across the finish line. Hope you enjoy this convo!

This one wasn't anticipated but was not a ton of work to throw together so I figured, why not? 

The El Paso Young Democrats hosted a meeting with Rep Eddie Morales so members (and guests) would have the opportunity to learn about and ask questions about the upcoming constitutional amendments up for election. It's useful info, so I'm eager to share it with you all

After the brief, I did ask Rep Morales to unpack what's happening at the special session, and importantly, how we can help -

Spoiler alert - we need to send HAND WRITTEN letters to the Governor's and Lt. Governor's offices. Bury them in hard copy complaints. Make it rain like we're Hogwarts thirsting for Harry's enrollment...you get the idea. Hard copy letters can't as easily be ignored. Demand better for our school system.

Probably what will be the political scandal of 2023 for El Paso, the gas card fiasco, is in large part thanks to a humble citizen trying to hold his elected representative accountable. That citizen also happens a friend of mine, and our guest on today's episode. George Zavala has been a fierce advocate for people with disabilities, but his latest journey, he hopes, will inspire and motivate all of us.
