Lunch + Legislation #25: Hillary Rettig, “Values-Based Time Management”  

We discuss how to be a sustainable advocate: combine effective activism with a happy and healthy life.

Want to be a more effective, productive advocate? Tune in to hear Hillary Rettig, author, speaker, teacher, activist, vegan, dog lover.

Lunch + Legislation began two years ago in November 2020, on the day before the election. Today we’re again coming to you on the day before the 2022 election. We’re shifting gears a bit to cover an important topic. Watch the video interview.

January 2023 will be the beginning of new legislative sessions in both Michigan and Congress. Next month we’ll wrap up the current sessions, and over the next couple months – based on election results tomorrow – predict the upcoming sessions.

But today, let’s focus inward and get some ideas about how to keep your advocacy strong and more effective.  

You research the best practices and you work with happy, healthy people … Life balance: you can’t learn from books, you learn from senior activists who have figured it out … and your path will not be identical to anyone else’s”
