Are you—without realizing it—voting yourself out of a job?

Linda J. Hansen wants to make sure the answer is a resounding no. As the Founder & President of Prosperity 101, she’s on a mission to equip everyday Americans with the knowledge they need to connect public policy with personal prosperity—and protect the freedoms that make opportunity possible.

Her story is as inspiring as her mission. Once a homeschool mom of six, Linda became one of the few women to serve at the highest levels of a major U.S. presidential campaign, working as Executive Vice President and Deputy Chief of Staff for Herman Cain’s 2012 run. She’s also a certified leadership coach, accomplished speaker, and seasoned strategist in politics, government affairs, and grassroots activism.

In this episode, Linda shares:

  • The wake-up call that led her to launch Prosperity 101

  • How employers can help employees connect economics, policy, and job security

  • The role of faith in having peace that passes all understanding—even in turbulent times

  • Practical ways to protect your livelihood through informed engagement

Whether you’re an employer, an employee, or simply someone who cares about freedom, this conversation will give you both inspiration and tools to make a difference—starting now.
