Vice President Kamala Harris In our season finale, we sit down with Kamala Harris for an unguarded conversation about the weight of leadership and the search for steadiness through faith, family, purpose, and friendships forged through fire. Vice President Harris reflects on building a presidential campaign in 107 days, making history with the confirmation of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, and refusing to let others define her right to be in the room. Together, we talk about a Democratic Party that can’t play it safe forever as well as the dangers of misinformation and disinformation. -- Timestamps -- 00:00 - Jaime Harrison Welcomes Vice President Harris, 03:48 - Historic Accomplishments of the Biden-Harris Administration 04:58 - Navigating Misunderstanding and Hate as a Leader 08:20 - The Historic Confirmation of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson 11:08 - Vice President Harris on Overcoming Limitations and Breaking Barriers 15:48 - Defining Your Presence and Owning Your Voice in Any Room 21:54 - Lessons from the 107-Day Presidential Campaign 25:53 - Addressing Challenges and the Future of the Democratic Party 28:40 - Overcoming Risk Aversion and Purity Tests in the Democratic Party 31:06 - The Need for Diverse Voices and Representation in Politics 34:13 - Understanding Diverse Cultures and Regional Issues in Politics 36:50 - VP Harris on Resilience 39:24 - Shared Love of Cooking 41:17 - SYAD and Closing Thoughts
