What would you attempt if you stopped waiting until you felt ready? For the last 17 months, I’ve been running for Congress while homeschooling four kids, raising a family, running a business, raising money, building a campaign—and figuring a whole lot of it out as I go. I didn’t start with millions of dollars. I didn’t have a political machine behind me. I didn’t have the perfect team, the perfect timing, or the perfect circumstances. I ran anyway. And somehow, we won a congressional primary. So I’m starting a new series called RUN ANYWAY—because I want to show you what this journey actually looked like behind the campaign photos, viral videos and headlines. The wins. The mistakes. The ridiculous moments. The things I would do differently. And the lessons I learned building a congressional campaign from the ground up. Because this series really isn’t just about running for office. It’s about what can happen when you stop waiting for permission to do the thing you know you’re supposed to do. This is Episode 1. And here’s my challenge to you: If there’s something you’ve been talking yourself out of doing, tell me what it is in the comments. Then follow this series. Maybe it’s time for you to RUN ANYWAY, too.
