The Extra Mile - The Official Charity Miles Podcast

This is actually a re-release of the first podcast I ever recorded-- almost four years ago, just after Donald Trump's inauguration.

However, Kyrsten's is a voice we need to hear right now. She is one of the most bi-partisan members of the Senate and Congress generally. She has a tremendous record of working across the aisle and finding common ground with others that might otherwise seem diametrically opposed to her. She does this by practicing "radical empathy", which is something I think would benefit all of us. One of the things I love most about the Charity Miles community is how we have people from all across the political spectrum, every day putting in miles for the same causes.
