Turning Anxiety Into Action w Laura Friedman

TSM welcomes California Congress Member / Representative / Ms. Speaker, Laura Friedman to the show! You know we discussed all these names and titles because we LOVE names! Laura is open to crying, but she's currently too busy fighting the GD Oligarchs for our democracy! Cristina pitches a Real World/Road Rules style challenge show for Congresspeople living together in a DC house, Laura (former TV producer) tells her: it's been done, babe! Laura shares with us what it's like to live in DC and fight the good fight. First she's got to make sure that she's fighting off any inner demons. This Freshman Congresswoman, like most women, struggles with mom guilt, imposter syndrome, and perfectionism - Congress Members; they're just like us! Her origin story is rooted in rebellion but now she has come back around and made her mama proud, though there IS still time for law school, Laura!Shoutouts: Walking to work, FB "Buy Nothing" Groups, Inside Out 1 & 2Endorsements: Sisterwife, Flamenco Dancing, Libby, and Size 12 Women's Boots!
