Igniting Your Inner Spark: Finding Purpose and Community with Activist Shannon Watts

In today's episode I speak with activist Shannon Watts, founder of Moms Demand Action, about her new book 'Fired Up: How to Turn Your Spark Into a Flame and Come Alive at Any Age'. Shannon shares her journey from corporate PR to leading a grassroots movement against gun violence and discusses how women can discover their core values, ignite personal and professional transformations, and find a sense of belonging. We talk about the importance of taking small, consistent actions, identifying personal values and abilities, and building supportive communities. This episode serves as a reminder that purpose is always evolving and to live authentically and audaciously at every stage of life.
