“We need to mend and heal this country, and the way we do that is by telling our stories.”
— Marie Newman.
From bullying to racial discrimination to threatening LGBTQ rights, it seems like we have so much to be concerned about these days. With so many issues, it can feel overwhelming to think about trying to make a difference. Faced with all this, what can one woman do? A lot, it turns out. In this episode of the Awaken Your Wise Woman podcast, host Elizabeth “Biz” Cush, LCPC, a licensed professional therapist, founder of Progression Counseling in Maryland and Delaware, and soul guide for highly sensitive women, welcomes Marie Newman, a former U.S. representative from Illinois’ 3rd Congressional District, advocate, and author of A Life Made From Scratch: Lessons From a Controversial Congresswoman, Mompreneur and Unstoppable Political Activist. They’ll talk about healing the country’s divides, advocating for better lives, building community and provide practical, step-by-step tips for how each of us can start a movement and make a difference.
