In this True Conversations truecast listen as two Millennials talk Politics! Our guest is,
Christine Johnson who is a digital marketer with a passion for politics. She has spent the last two campaign cycles focused on digital organizing and fundraising for a progressive member of Congress. As a Democratic politically active feminist millennial, this last election hit her hard... but it's also given her a tremendous amount of hope. She firmly believes that the 2016 election was a wake call to her generation to get more involved in the process and to finally start actively participating in the political process. This is not a time to disengage, it's a time to wake up and get organized.

We delve into how we stay connected with our children, ourselves, and our support system. How the lessons and values in business transfer over to family and vice versa. What she felt were some of the biggest mistakes and what single concept is so key to everything she does.

Listen in as Jerry Walker, Republican Councilman of Anne Arundel County, MD, and myself got together at the local library to discuss family, issues like education, including your children in political discussions and why someone might want to consider serving their community by getting involved in government.
When you meet Joe Child, Mortgage Super Genius, of Severna Park Maryland, you quickly learn what makes him great at financing home mortgages for the community and it isn't just the number of years in the industry. His empathy for the choices families today are having to make around career, family, and their home is astounding.
Come listen in to this philosopher and dad, a guy who helps people find the home of their dreams, get real about why a bigger house, a loftier dream, may not be the path to finding happiness or leaving a legacy. Intertwined in his genius is his extensive life experience, lessons learned, and the raising of four grown children, some of whom have kids of their own now, amidst a career known for having people hustle. What insights does he have for young families today about enriching their lives, making the choice between money and dreams? A lot.
Chris Barber, of Cheaper Than a Geek located in Crofton Maryland sat down to hash out some very real professional and parenting moments when it comes to the ever changing platform of technology, his profession, and kids.
We delved into things like how do we keep our toddlers from shopping on our cell phones? When is it appropriate to get your teenager an email address? How do we go with the flow to best prepare our children for the world in which they are going to prosper? As a dad who had started his business before his daughter was born, he also took some time to reflect on the career decision he made and how being an entrepreneur impacted his daughter's view of the world.
“We know you aren’t supposed to drink alcohol until you are 21… I don’t feel like there are hard numbers associated with when it is ok to get an email, or a cell phone. Even though I am in the technology space, I find myself a little uncertain, second guessing myself.”- Chris Barber Cheaper Than a Geek
We are joined by Josie Thompson of Josie Designs and Diosa Woods of DIOSA Inc. In continued celebration of Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month I wanted to ask these mothers, and leaders in the community what their experiences were like growing up Asian American, and how they strive to raise their children in developing a healthy self image. The conversation became so applicable to every family, not just those who are of Asian descent. Transparent and empowering conversation about bullying, self image, mental health, and success principals filled our time together.
