Summary

Sarah Stewart Holland and Beth Silvers host the popular podcast Pantsuit Politics, which was named one of 2021’s best shows by Apple Podcasts and has been featured in The New York Times, The Atlantic, Good Morning America 3, The Guardian, Elle Magazine, and Parents Magazine. They are also the authors of “I Think You're Wrong (But I'm Listening): A Guide to Grace-Filled Political Conversation” and “Now What?: How to Move Forward When We're Divided About Basically Everything”. Sarah and Beth met in college before going their separate ways for law school. Sarah pursued a career in politics as a congressional staffer and campaign aide and Beth practiced law before serving as a human resources executive. Sarah lives in Paducah, KY, with her spouse, Nicholas, and children Griffin, Amos, and Felix. Beth lives in Union, KY, with her spouse, Chad, and children Jane and Ellen. Sarah’s dog, Cookie, and Beth’s dog, Lucy, are beloved (and involuntary) contributors to their work. When I heard Sarah and Beth had a new book out, I immediately asked them to come on the show. The way they navigate and guide hard conversations in incredibly divisive times is so important and powerful. I always learn so much from them. Listen in to hear Sarah and Beth share: The difference between being a citizen vs being a consumer How to talk to your kids about hard things How to talk differently to boys vs girls about power & authority The significance of moms owning their power, especially economic power, as a voting block How society has carved moms into smaller blocks - on purpose - and how we need to sew ourselves together to hold more power How moms can more effectively use your voice and your vote Links mentioned: Connect with Sarah and Beth and listen to Pantsuit Politics: https://www.pantsuitpoliticsshow.com/ Book: I Think You're Wrong (But I'm Listening): A Guide to Grace-Filled Political Conversation Book: Now What?: How to Move Forward When We're Divided About Basically Everything Pantsuit Politics on Instagram Pantsuit Politics on Twitter Pantsuit Politics on Facebook Sponsor info and promo codes: Please find our sponsor information here: shamelessmom.com/sponsor/ Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?
