Hi John,

There are so many external obstacles to women running for and serving in public office. But how do women navigate internal obstacles like self-doubt or the imposter syndrome? We collaborated with Betsy Sweet to tape an episode of Maine Challenge that dug into these very questions.

Tune in at 7pm on Wednesday, April 7 to hear an inspiring, honest conversation featuring:

• Betsy Sweet, moderator
• Councilor Flavia Oliveira, Waterville City Council
• Lutie Brown, Maine College Democrats President & Former Waterville City Charter Commissioner
• Bev Uhlenake, former Brewer Mayor & City Councilor, current MDP Vice Chair

If you or a woman in your life is considering running for office, this is a must-see episode about refusing to let fear get in the way of making a difference in local politics!
