how to explode with purpose
and put your talents to good use!
I'm writing to you live from a middle seat on a flight to Michigan, where I'll be doing a ton of flirt canvassing and absolutely no respecting of my food intolerances. I’m not sure what the penalty is for asking for gluten-free pizza in Detroit, but I’m fine with never finding out.
Until the election, I’ll be hitting swing states, flirting with as many undecided male voters as I can, trying to nudge them to vote progressive. It's my way of giving back, using the narrow set of skills I’ve been given and the audacity my parents tried (and failed) to keep in check. As I mentioned in a piece this summer, it all starts with a smile, a genuine compliment, and then a swift pivot into how Project 2025 is coming for their porn—or how JD Vance wants to force teenagers to become parents. And, if that doesn’t get their attention, I remind them his stance on Plan B and birth control means casual sex will probably be a thing of the past. Usually if that doesn’t creep them out, telling them about how the GOP House Speaker Mike Johnson has a masturbation accountability buddy that’s none other than his son, does the job.
Flirt canvassing isn’t for everyone, but it’s my contact sport, born from taking stock of my talents and figuring out how to use them for this election. And guess what? This Sunday, we’ll help you discover your own version of that! We’ll be joined by the fabulous Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, marine biologist, climate activist, and bestselling author of What If We Get It Right? as she guides us in finding how to channel our unique skills into something that not only brings us joy but also makes a real impact in the world. It may sound impossible to find something that ticks all those boxes, but trust me, it’s not! I know so many of you have so much to give, but might not know where to begin. But fear no more, this sharing circle will help you figure out your next steps!
There’s only a month left before the election, and the margins are razor-thin. That means every little thing you do could tip the scales. I hate that it’s so close, but take comfort in knowing that your actions can make a real impact.
I hope you’ll join us in making a difference! The fun will start at 9AMPT-12ET this Sunday October 6th. To join the magic, just follow the link below!!
