As the American presidential election draws near, we take on one of the most pressing questions many voters face: Does my vote really matter?
As the resident of a historically “blue” state, I’m often asked, “Why bother to vote?” And I'm told that “my vote doesn’t matter.”
In this week's episode, I challenge the notion of indifference and explore how our decision to vote—or not—reflects more than just political engagement. It speaks to how we show up in our lives.
Through insightful reflections, we’ll connect the act of voting to a deeper, more personal level. As listeners, you’ll be encouraged to examine where else in life you’ve chosen to "sit it out" or walk away from challenges, and what that says about how we value our own voices.
Drawing on history, from civil rights leaders to everyday acts of courage, we’re reminded that exercising our right to vote isn’t just a political act—it’s an affirmation of our belief that we matter.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
Why your vote matters, even in a "red" or "blue" state.
The deeper spiritual and psychological implications of choosing not to vote.
How historical figures who stood up for what they believed shaped the world—and how you can too.
How your decision to vote or not reflects on your own sense of worth and voice.
With the future of the country at stake, I contend that showing up matters—not just for the election, but for the soul of the citizen in all of us.
Join the conversation, reflect on your own role, and most importantly—make your voice count.
