We Are The Suburban Women Problem (with Heather Cox Richardson and Katie Paris)

Suburban women helped decide the 2020 election. But we’re just getting started. Are you ready to be part of The Suburban Women Problem? Sign up here to join our amazing community of women.

In this very first episode, we invite you to get to know our incredible hosts. Rachel Vindman is a suburban mom with foreign policy chops who left the Republican Party after her husband, Lieutenant Colonel (retired) Alexander Vindman, was fired for standing up to Trump. Jasmine Clark is a suburban mom and scientist who flipped a seat in the Georgia legislature to become the first Black woman ever to represent her district. And Amanda Weinstein is a US Air Force veteran, suburban mom, and economist who left the Republican Party when she couldn't reconcile its values with her evangelical Christian faith or basic economics.

Our hosts interview Red Wine and Blue founder Katie Paris about the organization, this podcast, and the power of suburban women. Then Rachel interviews historian Heather Cox Richardson about how this moment compares to other inflection points in US history, the power of women’s voices, and the surprising origins of Mother’s Day.

Finally, our hosts celebrate their moms, daughters, and friends in this week’s “Toast To Joy.”
