On this episode of the en(gender)ed podcast, our guest is Erin Vilardi, the Founder and CEO of Vote Run Lead, the nation’s largest and most diverse training program for women to run for office and win. She first launched Vote Run Lead as Vice President of Program and Communications at The White House Project. We speak with Erin today about Vote Run Lead’s work to help train female candidates to run and win, some of the barriers they face along the way, and how society benefits when we have more women in elected office and positions of power.

During our conversation, Erin and I referenced the following resources and topics:

The history of Vote Run Lead, and its founding by Marie Wilson, creator of "Take Your Daughter to Work Day"
Jon Freeman Lab's research on how implicit bias impacts behavior
How feminine traits impact perceptions and results for female candidates
