Angie Bado announced her candidacy for Texas House of Representatives, District 70 as a Democrat. She believes that for too long, the majority of Texans in her district, have not had a voice at the table. Angie feels it's time to bring back collaboration, consensus building and open communication that fosters accomplishing legislation that is important to all people. She faces the challenge of systemic racism in America and looks for answers to eliminate its cause and effect. Angie shares why it is important as a political leader to have a deeper conversation about racism in order to truly lead. “I am a white woman of privilege, I realized that I’ve been complacent and complicit in perpetuating racism. I asked myself “what role can/should I play in facilitating change”.? “How do we have, honest discussions about racism?” “How do I have these sensitive and meaningful discussions with my black friends?” “How do I approach these conversations from a position of trust?” “As a political leader how do I help my community become more whole and just?” Answering these questions are critical. So, Angie and I discuss Six Key Points:

1. What drove her to run for office - and why now? 

As a state rep., Angie’s vision would be for the legislature to get to a place where, our leaders fight to support the values we believe in, while passionately fighting for solutions that will put ALL people over politics.

Natalie W. Nixon, PhD , Author, global speaker, consultant, and creativity strategist.  She defines creativity as the ability to toggle between wonder and rigor then shows us how to integrate these into our life and work. She believes by searching for the transformative qualities in life, we will become a more dynamic version of ourselves.  Our talk will help you discover why the“ Value of the Pause”,  is essential to our growth, especially as we experience this global pandemic. “Pause” gives us the opportunity to Restore, Reboot, Reimagine, and Redefine. Natalie shares tips on how we can design who we want to be going forward. These days are ripe with the need for inquiry, improvisation and intuition.  She believes that women have a healthy dose of intuition, so she challenges us to use it, to lead with it and explore new personal forms of expression.  She introduces “The Vagus Nerve” and how it connects the mind, the heart and the “gut”.  This could be one "real" reason to trust our intuition when taking that personal leap or next step in our life.

Katherine Woodward Thomas, M.A., MFT is the author of the New York Times Bestseller 

Calling in “The One:” 7 Weeks to Attract the Love of Your Life, and

Today in my conversation with Katherine she will share stories, examples and give answers to:

• Why relationships are so important to women

And more!

She helps us find the answers to these questions: How can I find a partner who respects my career, busy hours, travel schedule and just plain power? How do we find that special relationship, that person who gets it (us)?

Katherine will share her years of experience and insightful tips with us on how to have rewarding, fulfilling and engaging relationships.

The Power of Shifting Our Beliefs -“Don’t believe everything you think.”

Catherine Crooker noticed a car with a bumper sticker on it, saying, “Don’t believe everything you think.” This ah ha” moment prompted her to expand that thought with “Don’t assume your view is the only view.” And frankly, “your view may need an upgrade or do over”.

Statistics show that Women dominate in volunteer roles and in the Non-profit field as primary contributors. Catherine has noticed that women who ultimately raise millions of dollars helping organizations to realize, and fulfill organizations fundraising goals, are not considered for primary leadership positions in the fundraising community.  Catherine is bold in her belief that it is time to shift how women see themselves in raising, handling, and asking for money, not only in places we volunteer and work, but for ourselves as well!  It is necessary to ask for more, see ourselves with more and to value ourselves for bringing so much more to the table.

Catherine inspires us to lift our thinking to a bold new vision and reeducate our minds by shifting our beliefs, opening space for amazing things to happen. She tells us not to be stuck on what we see in the rearview mirror.
