Working that political life is really fun. We have so many fun stories, so many things that we don’t ever want to talk about, and so many things we can never talk about. But we like to have fun and be extra as well. Meet Samuel Grant, 1st Vice President of Young Dems of SC, Freshman at CSU, Intern at JGS Strategies, and so much more. Jeni and Sam decided to record during a road trip one day because why not. ALSO, run for office. Filing opens in South Carolina on March 16th and closes on March 30th. The Primary in SC is on June 14th. Reach out to the Podcast if you want to learn more about running for office in SC.

Season 3, Episode 5: Say it, if you are ready!

Jeni talks about the importance of talking about things if you are ready. It is important to say stuff if it needs to be said. But, it is also important to ensure you are prepared for that. You have to set boundaries, you might need to talk with a therapist, or you might need time.

Season 3, Episode 3: Resting B**** Face!
Have you ever been told that that you just need to smile more? Have you ever been told that you have RBF? Join Jeni on her rant about being told to just smile or being told that you have to say everything is great. It gets very tiring to just pretend that everything is okay. We are constantly taught in life to pretend that everything is great and everything is fine. That is very frustrating. Hope you enjoy Jeni's little rant (LOL)
