By 19, she was on the ballot, showing what’s possible when you stop waiting for permission and start trusting your voice. In this episode, Rebecca shares how she navigated being underestimated, the pressure to prove herself as a young woman, and why she chose not to wait her turn. We also talk about the unspoken challenges women face in male-dominated rooms and how standing up—even when you’re scared—can shift everything. Rebecca brings a perspective rooted in education, advocacy, and real-world courage. This conversation is about confidence, action, and becoming your own ally first.
