From Touchdowns to Town Halls: Breaking Barriers with Josh Bidnda

Pardon The Insurrection

What if a young athlete suddenly found his passion and purpose in the political arena? Meet our special guest for this episode, Josh Binda, an elected official from Linwood, Washington, who dared to enter politics at the tender age of 21 and succeeded. Josh takes us through his life's journey, from the football field to a city council member's chair, revealing how he used his youthful vigour to effect revolutionary changes in his community.
Strap on as we explore an amusing controversy tied to Josh's persona - a shirtless photo in the public domain. While this stirred a fun conversation about attractive politicians, it serves as a reminder of how appearances can be deceptive. Turning the humour into a serious discussion, we converse about the importance of authentic representation in politics. This narrative echoes in Josh's involvement in youth activism, as he elucidates on how he overcame obstacles, leveraging his youth to inspire his peers and affect change.
Finally, we shift the spotlight to an inspiring self-help book "Breaking Barriers" by Josh Binda Packed with practical insights, this work is a battlecry for those bent on breaking free from mediocrity. And for those wondering how to make a difference in their communities without running for office, we glean wisdom from our guest. Wrapping up the episode, we emphasize the importance of finding your passion and purpose, using your voice and platform to make a difference, and not being deterred by fear or doubt. After all, true power resides with the people, and everyone can be a leader in their unique way.
