À propos de cet audio

This week’s episode is a pause, a processing moment, and an honest check-in, in real time after watching the disturbing video out of Minnesota over the weekend. Lara found herself unsure how to show up—yet committed to showing up anyway. What unfolds is a calm, empathetic reflection on power, escalation, grief, and the complicated emotions that surface when authority and humanity collide.

Drawing from personal experience—including years spent in the DC area and her intimate experience as a law enforcement wife—Lara explores why training, discernment, and restraint matter, and why empathy doesn’t require silence or extremism.

The episode closes with a note of hope, inspired by Michelle Obama’s recent conversation on Call Her Daddy: a reminder that progress isn’t finished, but we are not starting from zero—and that new ideas and new leaders matter.

Listeners are also offered one simple, tangible action step for those feeling helpless in the current climate: directly contacting elected officials through their official websites.

This episode isn’t about politics or having the perfect words.
It’s about being honest, staying human, and choosing calm over cruelty.
