I think talking about recovery or any of these things that we're all working through is part of that commitment to being vulnerable, and being vulnerable publicly and with the hopes that that inspires others to feel comfortable, showing up as their full selves.
Imagine a world where politics isn't just about power plays but about compassion and belonging. That's exactly what Heidi Harmon, the mayor of San Luis Obispo, is striving for. In this episode of the SHE RECOVERS Podcast, Erin sits down with Heidi to explore how her unique journey—from housecleaner and preschool teacher to mayor—shapes her approach to leadership and recovery.
Heidi shares how she navigates the challenges of being a woman in a predominantly masculine field, using her experiences to stay true to her values and purpose. She dives into the concept of 'politics of belonging,' where every citizen feels seen, heard, and valued. Heidi also opens up about her family’s struggles with addiction, highlighting the importance of community support and vulnerability in recovery.
If you've ever wondered how feminine energy can transform politics and why it's crucial for more women to run for office, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to hear Heidi's inspiring story and discover how embracing vulnerability can lead to a more compassionate society.
