In this episode, Stacy invites her mentor Sara on, who just so happens to be the founder of Sage publishing and the beating heart of the McCune Foundation. Sara shares her journey all the way from youth advocacy to an illustrious career that challenged the gender norms of her day. Stacy and Sara also discuss the incredible efforts of the McCune foundation to confront the climate crisis, work towards gender equality in the United States, and mobilize grassroots organizations across California. Tune in for reflections on a life filled with trailblazing success and public service.
