Ramblings of an Addict: Recent Episodes

Jenna Dicks

Welcome to the "Ramblings of an Addict" podcast, where I, Jenna Dicks, ramble on about all things getting healthy, momming, and politics. Just ask my husband, I'm always talking. But there's a deeper meaning behind the name - I used to struggle with alcoholism. In truth, I have what we call an "addcitive personality". Now, my goal in life is to help others on their own journey to finding their best health and living their life passionately, as a National Board certified Health and Wellness Coach. So join me as I share my story, tips, and inspiration for living your best life, one rambling at a time.

As a young suburban mom, I was previously apathetic about politics until the riots that hit close to home woke me up to the reality that I needed to fight for a safe future for my family. I started paying attention to current events and reached out to a family connection to get involved. I then became a volunteer for a political campaign and eventually ran for MNGOP Secretary, with my family at my side. Along the way, I learned five tips to help balance my political advocacy: educate yourself, get organized, join or start a local advocacy group, pick your hills, and find like-minded people. These tips have allowed me to focus my passion and make a meaningful impact in my community, and I am excited to share them so you can too.
