248: My D.C. Recap, Why Community Is So Important, My “Just Waits” for New Parents, and More Q&A

In this solo episode, I recap my incredible experience going to the White House with March Fourth to advocate for a federal ban on assault weapons. I share how fulfilling it has been finding community and connection in advocacy and charity work, what my most surprising takeaways were from the trip, and how we can all voice our support and enact change right now. I also share how I’ve been navigating depressive episodes lately and answer listener questions on a wide spectrum of topics from handling your kid’s tantrums in public to what I wish I knew as a first-time mom.
