  • Leading with Curiosity

    The best of the best is Alyssa’s panel at CrookedCon - a diverse panel that shares their truths and why/how politics can help change lives. Erin and Alyssa’s This f-ing Guy is well researched as it exposes corruption with a bit of satire. This inter-generational combo renders visible how politics affect women’s lives while also brining humor and joy to the listeners.
