In 2017, when she was just 26, Erin Schrode was chosen by super star chef José Andrés to spearhead his #ChefsForPuertoRico initiative being carried out by World Central Kitchen to help feed the island after Hurricane Maria. In this episode of Speaking Broadly, Schrode explains how, with no power, no water and no communications, World Central Kitchen prevailed, and brought nutritious, hot meals to more than 3 million people. Schrode had never run a hunger relief program, but when she got the call from Andrés, she'd already been a citizen activist for 10 years. At age 13, she and her mom launched "Teens Turning Green." They took on the beauty industry, calling out the products with "dirty" ingredients. At 24, she ran for Congress. Her stories of fierce engagement with an unjust world are moving, and her motto, "I am but one, but I am," will motivate everyone who listens to this podcast." Speaking Broadly is powered by Simplecast.

Erin Schrode was an activist in the womb. By the age of 13 she had started a non-profit called Turning Green, a global student-led movement devoted to cultivating a healthy, just and thriving planet through education and advocacy around environmentally sustainable and socially responsible choices. She is young and passionate and hungry.And it’s not that she’s fearless but rather fear-with. She can face her fear and do it anyway. And at the age of 24, she surprised even herself when she decided to run for office, becoming the youngest person ever to have run for Congress. In this podcast, Erin talks to us about taking risks, doing the right thing and living a life of service.Follow ErinCheck out Run for SomethingIf this episode resonates for you, we’d love for you to take a screenshot and tag us on Instagram stories @ctznwell and @erinschrode and click below to tweet:What gets lost when we wait for the right time? @runforsomething's @erinschrode talks with @kkellyyoga about taking risks - because the stakes are too high not to make an impact: ctznwell.org/ctznpodcast #CTZN @ctznwellMore about this episode:In this podcast, we talked with Erin Schrode about what it takes to take risks and make leaps. And it reminded me of an article I read recently that said the problem for women is not winning - it’s deciding to run. When women run they are just as likely to get elected as men.But as Erin described her process of deciding, you could hear that narrative that women in particular embody - that we are never ready, never good enough, never smart enough or resourced enough to do anything much less run for office. I was inspired by Erin’s story of choosing to go all in, despite what was stacked against her.And she had me reflect on what gets lost when we wait for the right time? What’s at stake when we don’t go for it? When we live up to our potential? And her secret is this: before she decides to do anything big, she asks herself three questions:1-Where can I be most impactful?2-What am I most passionate about?3-What best sets me up for a lifetime of service?And she is proving that we can start before we’re ready. And often when we do, we surprise even ourselves around what we are capable of.Join CTZNWELL on PatreonFollow CTZNWELL on InstagramSign up for CTZNWELL’s weekly email WELLread and check out our free action guides at ctznwell.org.
