Send us Fan MailIf you've ever thought your vote doesn't really matter, that politics is too confusing, or that the whole system is just... too much, this episode is for you. A lot of us are carrying around this low-grade exhaustion with national politics right now, and it's easy to let that feeling bleed into disengagement. But there's a whole level of government that most people skip over completely, and it's the one that fills potholes, sets school policy, and shapes what your actual daily life looks like.This week we're stepping away from our regularly scheduled programming to participate in Podcasthon, a global event where thousands of podcasters dedicate one episode to a charity that matters to them. Ours was an easy choice: the League of Women Voters. Angela is the vice president of the Washington County chapter and secretary of the League of Women Voters of Arkansas Education Fund C3, and this conversation gave us a chance to dig into what this organization actually does, how it operates, and why it matters right now more than ever. In this episode, we get into:Why the League is nonpartisan but absolutely political (and why that distinction matters)How the League protects democracy by actually suing the government when it breaks its own rulesWhat direct democracy means and the ballot initiative Arkansans can sign right nowA real picture of how local elections are won by fewer votes than you'd thinkConcrete ways to get involved, from $20 memberships to volunteering at voter registration drivesAngela shares what it was actually like to stand on the hill in Athens where the very first democratic assembly happened, why she thinks Arkansas's unexpected ranking in social connectedness matters, and the story of a candidate in Fort Smith who ran unopposed and still lost because not a single person, including himself, voted. Sami gets into her own personal mission: getting Arkansas off the bottom of voter turnout rankings. This episode is part civic education, part pep talk, and a whole lot of two Arkansas women who genuinely care about this stuff.You don't have to run for office. You don't even have to understand how every piece of the system works. You just have to show up. Press play, and let's talk about why that actually means something.Mentioned in this episode:Podcasthon (global podcasting charity event): podcasthon.orgLeague of Women Voters (national): lwv.orgLeague of Women Voters of Arkansas: lwvar.orgLeague of Women Voters of Washington County, AR: lwvarwc.orgVOTE411.org (nonpartisan voter information): vote411.orgSupport the showOrder Traveling Light wherever you get your books!Sign up at bfreakingawesome.com to get the latest news, insights, and episodes straight to your inbox.Follow Be Freaking Awesome on Facebook, LinkedIn, Youtube, and Instagram.Let us know what questions you want to be answered and discussed by emailing us at podcast@bfreakingawesome.com.

While most of our podcast episodes are about looking out at other communities to learn and find inspiration, this episode is all about encouraging you to really notice what is happening right in your own backyard. We encourage you to take a Power Walk through your community and also to follow the money. As an example, I share a local project where, along with some good friends, we took our own Power Walk through our county's budget. Much of this episode is also a repost of an interview originally aired on the Simple Civics Greenville podcast. Find a full transcript and show notes HERE.

02/22/26 - Joyce LeBombard - President of the league of Women Voters of Texas

(00:00:00) We begin with the remarkable history of the League of Women Voters, born in 1920 from the women’s suffrage movement and led by NAWSA president Carrie Chapman Catt. Created six months before the ratification of the 19th Amendment, the League set out to help newly enfranchised women learn how to register, how to vote, and how their government worked. In Pennsylvania, LWV chapters in cities like Pittsburgh and Philadelphia mobilized quickly, registering thousands of women and building a culture of informed civic participation. More than a century later, the League’s mission has expanded across every state — and even to the US Virgin Islands and Hong Kong — continuing its work to strengthen democracy through education and engagement. (00:22:19) Then we turn to another essential form of empowerment: colorectal cancer prevention. Experts explain why colorectal cancer is both common and highly preventable, how routine screening beginning at age 45 can detect cancer early or remove precancerous polyps, and why understanding personal and family risk is critical. We also explore the lifestyle choices — from diet to physical activity — that significantly reduce risk and help people take control of their long‑term health.

The League of Women Voters began as a national, nonpartisan nonprofit political organization that was founded in 1920, just a few months before the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution guaranteed women the right to vote. The Collier County chapter is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. One of their main information sources is Vote411.org. It's a one-stop shop for information about who and what will be on ballots for each election. We learn about their new educational effort is a series of videos called Civics Unplugged which cover basic government functions like the three branches, the houses of Congress, Constitutional Amendments, and more.

The 2026 midterm elections are still a long way off, but that isn't keeping debates over voting rights and election laws off the front page. Indeed, both here in North Carolina and around the country, Republican politicians and their appointees are continuing to aggressively pursue policy changes that will – according to an array of critics — makes voting rules more complex and burdensome and elections less fair. And one of the groups that's been most outspoken in its criticism of these changes — whether it's new requirements on voters to provide detailed personal information in order to vote, or renewed efforts by politicians of both parties to gerrymander electoral districts – is the nonpartisan League of Women Voters. And recently Newsline got a chance to discuss these subjects and more with the President of the North Carolina League, Jennifer Rubin.

CLICK HERE to send me a text, I'd love to hear what you thought about this episode! Leave your name in the text so I know who it's from! Today's Cream City Digest clears up a little misinformation on the voting process for young people/college students after an egregious text went out on October 10th telling this group of voters that if they violated WI Statutes they could end up in jail or with fines of $10,000. Clearly intimidation, which itself is illegal. So I called on Debra Cronmiller, Executive Director of the League of Women Voters of Wisconsin to help clear this up and share the FACTS. If you have, or know of, a young voter who may have gotten this text, or who may be confused about what they can or can't do, you'll want to share this short Digest. Also in this episode: a sneak peek at what I'll have coming next Wednesday in lieu of a guest, and also a recommendation for something that may help with the anxiety in the run up to the election next week.

Cláudio Mendonça sits down with Lynn Forbes and Jan Bedayn, the co-presidents of the nonpartisan League of Women Voters of Nevada County, to talk about voting and election concerns.

The League of Women Voters of Kentucky is working to mobilize the youth vote, a group of health organizations argue a constitutional amendment is bad for student health, where Sen. Paul says he disagrees with former President Trump, a major road project may be completed ahead of schedule, and a large addiction recovery program closes more centers.

Social responsibility is an ethical concept that endorses civil engagement for the good of all. Civic engagement, in all its forms, strengthens communities by involving citizens in the democratic process. No act is more significant in emboldening democracy than exercising one's right to vote. With the spread of misinformation and disinformation in this election cycle, it is paramount to have access to correct and trusted information. To learn how to fulfill your social responsibility, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with the Chief of Staff for the League of Women Voters of the United States, Kelly McFarland Stratman. Kelly offers information about the history of the League of Women Voters, its mission, its partnerships, and how to access resources that help constituents directly connect to their government representatives.
