In this episode, Liz is joined by Texas Congressman Colin Allred, a hopeful for the U.S. Senate. Allred's journey from NFL linebacker to civil rights attorney and his tenure in the Obama administration has inspired many. He opens up about the profound influence of kindness in his life, a value he attributes to his upbringing and the legacy of John Lewis. Reflecting on his multifaceted identity, Allred shares personal anecdotes that underscore the importance of empathy, community support, and teamwork, not just in politics but in everyday life. His commitment to family, joy in his children's achievements, and dedication to public service shine through, offering a unique glimpse into the heart and humanity of one of our elected leaders.
