I ran for Eastvale, CA city council at age 23 and for re-election at 27. It was hard but not nearly as nerve-wracking as when I first ran for student body president at 18. I knew I wanted to run, but I was terrified and insecure about my accent and age. It wasn’t until I heard the words, “ What’s the worst that can happen, Jocelyn, run!”

It was then that I took a chance on myself, and won, launching my political career.

John, young women who are feeling unsure about their leadership need to hear words of encouragement. A few words make a huge difference to someone who is questioning their ability.

Audrey Maloof, IGNITE alumna and former candidate for Georgia House of Representatives, recently shared a few words of inspiration:
