Anthony Weiner. You might know him as the former congressman who, for over a decade, passionately represented New York's 9th district. He was ambitious, outspoken, and often the loudest voice in the room advocating for healthcare reform and other key progressive issues. After a highly publicized scandal and a dramatic fall from grace, his career—and personal life—imploded in ways that played out on a national stage. Today, he's not shying away from his mistakes. Anthony has been open about the consequences of his actions, the path to redemption, and the lessons he's learned along the way.  Anthony gives us his opinions on the state of politics in America today and discusses why he's running for New York City councilman after a decade out of public office.  On Miss Understood, we believe every story has layers, and it's up to you to decide what to take away from it. Whether you've written him off or are curious about the man behind the headlines, today's episode is an opportunity to hear directly from him. Want to advertise on our show?

I wish I could say that this is one of those chats where I have the answers, but the reality is it just isn't. I'm struggling with this and if you have any answers or can relate, DM me. I receive it, friend!I'm heading to Atlanta for a business dinner soon and it's bringing up feelings of grief and reminders of my former life. It's like when the babies head to college and you go into their room and wish they were still there even though you know it's right that they aren't.If there is anything I'm learning it's that the future doesn't look like what you think it's going to look like. The future is always better but maybe in a way that is different than you expected.Wherever you're at right now, this isn't the end. The journey is still continuing and God has incredible plans for you.Thanks so much for being here, friend.
