Deb Haaland's (Laguna Pueblo) political star rose fast, from heading her state party to congresswoman to U.S. Secretary of the Interior. Each step of the way she blazed a trail for Native women. As the head of the agency that oversees Indian Affairs, Haaland championed a first-of-its-kind documentation of the U.S. Government's role in the Indian Boarding School Era, drawing on both public records and first-hand testimony from survivors and their descendants. Now, she aims to become the first female Native American governor in her home state of New Mexico. We'll hear from Haaland about her legacy as Interior Secretary and her hopes for the future. We'll also get perspectives on the historic agreement between the federal government and Northwest tribes to protect endangered salmon, and the equally historic decision by President Donald Trump to rescind that agreement. We'll discuss what it means for salmon and the trust in the federal government.

We've all been hurt by the moral crash of Christians we've respected. These moral failures shake our faith in human nature and sometimes even challenge our understanding of God's grace and justice.One moral crash in Scripture that's shocking and instructive is that of King David. We are all vulnerable to profound mistakes, failures and crashes. Consider your failures and how God brought you through it.

Faisal Hoque: Transcend Faisal Hoque is an award-winning entrepreneur and innovator and founder of SHADOKA and NextChapter. He is a three-time Wall Street Journal bestselling author of the books: Reinvent, Everything Connects, and Lift. He has just released his newest book: Transcend: Unlocking Humanity in the Age of AI*. The most compelling use cases for AI aren't people OR AI – it's both. Leaders who learn how to partner with AI will almost certainly open doors that many others don't. In this episode, Faisal and I explore (a few steps on) how to get started. Key Points While we think about working with AI as very different than working with people, similar mindsets and skillsets help us with both. Partnering will with AI means asking better questions and being genuinely interested in the answers. Experts are limited by their perspective. Beginners are open to possibilities. We should approach AI with a beginner's mindset. Using AI well means getting more comfortable with uncertainty. We need to own our ignorance. Playful discovery helps with our intrinsic motivation to keep going. When using AI, find the fun that keeps you engaged. This technology will do the logical work far better than any human. To partner well, work to increase your emotional intelligence.

In this deeply personal episode, I share a major shift that's been unfolding behind the scenes.For nearly four decades, I've been the woman behind the curtain amplifying voices, building brands, and supporting others as they step into their purpose. It's a role I love and one I've lived fully. But recently, a university interview turned the spotlight on me, and it sparked something I couldn't ignore. This moment made me realize it's time to take my own advice. To stop hiding behind the work and bring my full voice to the front. I've spent years telling Black women to own their power, use their voice, and honor their truth.Now I'm doing the same. In this episode, I'm officially sharing why Black Women Amplified is going on sabbatical, and how that space made room for what's next—The Monica Wisdom Podcast. This isn't a rebrand. It's a return. A reclamation.A decision to stop playing small and step fully into my own voice. You'll hear the story behind the shift, what it's teaching me, and what to expect as I move forward in a more visible, personal, and powerful way.Tune in. We're just getting started.

In this inspiring episode of American Potential, host David From is joined by Daniel Bassali, Vice President of Public Affairs for Americans for Prosperity, to discuss the launch of the One Small Step campaign—AFP's bold, nationwide effort to celebrate America's 250th anniversary by spotlighting the everyday citizens who are shaping the future of freedom. Bassali explains how One Small Step draws inspiration from iconic figures like Harriet Tubman, Betsy Ross, and Neil Armstrong—people who took action not for fame, but because it mattered. These American pioneers prove that profound change starts with a single courageous act. And today, that legacy lives on in community members testifying at city council meetings, homeschooling moms fighting for education freedom, and students like Caleb Williams who've become powerful policy advocates before the age of 21. Bassali and From explore how AFP serves as a platform to amplify these local voices, empower bottom-up solutions, and fuel a new generation of civic leadership. Whether it's helping someone write a letter to the editor or organizing grassroots momentum around school choice, every small step adds up to something greater. This episode is a rallying cry: You don't need a title or a microphone to make a difference. You just need to take the first step.
