To Build or To Burn? (with Alyssa Milano and Katie Paris)

This is a big week! Not only was there an important election on Tuesday, but we got to talk to Alyssa Milano!

We also got some disappointing news... it looks like paid leave is going to be cut from the spending bill. So on this episode, hosts Rachel Vindman, Jasmine Clark and Amanda Weinstein talk about turning our disappointments and frustrations into positive action. To quote Alyssa, we want to build, not burn! The hosts are then joined by Red Wine and Blue founder Katie Paris, who chats all about the incredible work that suburban women have been doing across the country in the lead-up to Election Day.

After that, Amanda gets the opportunity to talk to the one and only Alyssa Milano. In addition to being an actor, Alyssa has always used her platform for activism and elevating the voices of others. She just released a brand-new book called “Sorry, Not Sorry” about her life in the public eye, getting Covid, her activism and humanitarian work, MeToo, and much more. Tune in to hear the inside scoop on her favorite on-screen witch, her pets, and the best on-screen kisser.

Finally, Amanda, Jasmine and Rachel raise a glass to lawn care goats, seeing the results of long term projects, vaccines for kids, and new takes on trick-or-treating during this week’s “Toast to Joy.”
