How A Northeast Tennessee Mom Became A GOP Leader

COVID didn’t just disrupt routines. For a lot of families, it exposed who actually holds power over your kids, your job, and your ability to live out your faith. We sit down with Danielle Goodrich, chair of the Washington County Republican Party, to talk about the moment she went from focused on home and school to fully engaged in local politics in Northeast Tennessee.We get into why local government matters as much as national elections, especially when school boards and state policy can change your life overnight. Danielle explains what she means by a biblical worldview and how she believes it should shape political decisions, from the sanctity of life to freedom of conscience. We also talk about the frustration many people felt watching inconsistent standards during COVID, and why “my body, my choice” became a flashpoint across multiple issues.Then we zoom out to the Constitution, limited government, and the balance of power between the federal government and the states. Danielle shares why grassroots organizing matters, what it looks like to “follow principles, not politicians,” and how listeners can evaluate candidates during Tennessee primaries and the governor’s race. We also highlight the America 250 dinner as a chance to hear directly from candidates and support local races.If you care about civic engagement, conservative principles, and what keeps Northeast Tennessee free, listen now, then subscribe, share the episode, and leave a review.To help you to navigate the home buying and mortgage process, Jonathan & Steve are currently licensed in Tennessee, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, and Virginia, contact us today at 423-491-5405 or visit www.jonathanandsteve.com.
