Hi John,
This week’s podcast guest is one of our most requested yet -- folks, put your hands together for
Rhode Island state Senator Cynthia Mendes!
Growing up, Cynthia rarely saw people who looked like her in politics. She never considered running for office to be part of her life’s path until she was encouraged by a friend a few years ago. Against all odds, she defeated a more conservative incumbent.
And since then, she’s realized that the things that made her an unlikely candidate are the very things helping her thrive.
Cynthia has become a role model for young women of color looking to claim their own power. And now, she’s ready to share the secrets to her political success.
Tune in to hear Cynthia’s story on podcatchers now:
