What Australia Sees That America Refuses To Admit

She Saw America's Failures First Hand - What Is She Doing About It?

What happens when a teacher becomes a civil rights attorney and then decides to run for Congress? Today we welcome Laura Dunn, a NY-12 congressional candidate whose career has been spent fighting for people both inside the classroom and inside the courtroom. We discuss the state of public education, civil rights, government accountability, economic justice, and why so many Americans feel abandoned by the very institutions meant to serve them. This isn't a conversation about party politics—it's a conversation about the systems that shape our lives and whether meaningful change is still possible. If you've ever wondered why trust in government is declining, why our institutions seem increasingly disconnected from everyday Americans, or what real reform might look like, this episode is for you. ____________________________ SHARE THIS EPISODE NOW !!

Scared To Live - Trapped and Alone

What happens when addiction and fear rules your every day? In this episode of From Dirt We Grow, I sit down with a man currently battling addiction, living in fear, and struggling to find a path forward. His story is about isolation, desperation, trauma, survival, and what happens when someone has nowhere left to turn. This conversation sheds light on the human side of addiction and fear of the law that statistics and headlines often miss. No politics. No judgment. Just a raw and honest look at a life many people never see. #Addiction #Recovery #MentalHealth #FromDirtWeGrow #HumanStories ____________________________ *intro/outro audio: The Plot Thickens by Joshua Spacht Owner: Soundstripe, Inc.

After countless conversations with candidates, veterans, activists, and everyday people, I still don't have every answer. But I found something I wasn't expecting. In this episode, I share the biggest lessons, hardest truths, and unexpected insights from the journey so far. The conversation is just getting started. ____________________________ *intro/outro audio: The Plot Thickens by Joshua Spacht Owner: Soundstripe, Inc.
