Many of my recent episodes have been issue-based, aimed at giving you the bug to either run for office or urge your friends to. This episode addresses how to take that plunge.

Today, I talk about fundraising. I explain why most women already do some variation of fundraising, and I note that they tend to find it hard to ask for money despite this. I share and interpret statistics on the subject, and I note that you’ll never find a candidate you agree with 100% of the time. I offer tips to start fundraising for your own campaign or that of a candidate you support, and finally, I invite you to reach out for more tips at my website.

“Women are natural fundraisers.”

Women on the right need a safe space to discuss politics, policy, news, and ownership over the fact that it is ok to agree to disagree. It is our First Amendment right to free speech. Before we can even out the number of women in our local, state, & federal governments, we need to empower women to feel comfortable and confident discussing these and other topics.

My name is Jennifer. I’m a single mom of three girls living in Boston. I’m a lawyer with two political science degrees, and I have no problem talking politics with people who disagree with me.

I spent three years as the Chairman of the Massachusetts GOP and ran for the very liberal Boston City Council. I’m a frequent analyst on Newsmax, Fox News Radio, and Boston Media. As a Republican in a blue state, I know a few things about how to disagree agreeably.
