"We are not the people this [system] is designed for so there's this whole scarcity energy to fight so hard... but there's room for all of us." In this episode, WomenHeard host Julie Hochheiser Ilkovich interviews Sara Rodriguez. A former ballet dancer who studied political science, she became passionate about how policies and grassroots work can create impactful, societal change. Through Sara's internship with Day One, a nonprofit providing critical education and guidance to NYC's youth on dating abuse and domestic violence, she rediscovered her love for writing.

Adding her expertise of a political lens to communications, she became the Content Director for Kirsten Gillibrand's 2020 presidential campaign and worked in her HQ. This opened up a new world of professional opportunities for Sara and she got more clarity on what she wanted to say yes to and what her goals were. In her current role at NYLAG, she helps combat social, racial and economic injustice by advocating for people in crisis with free legal services and financial counseling. Listen to this interview for actionable tips on how to scale your career and intentionally orchestrate your next step!

This conversation was recorded in early July 2024.
