Kathy Hochul: New York's First Female Governor (Your Political Playlist Crossover) Sep 08, 2022

Show notes

Host Emily Tisch Sussman had the opportunity to talk with New York's first female governor, Governor Kathy Hochul. She is up for reelection this November and despite Emily’s best attempt to fully pivot she continues to be pulled back into the political scene. Emily spoke with Governor Hochul about her experience as a woman in politics, especially after she assumed office unexpectedly when the former Governor Cuomo resigned, and how she used that moment to pivot into the highest office in New York. She dives into what she plans to do as governor to advocate and fight on behalf of women.

If her story and politics is something you are interested in, head over to her other podcast, Your Political Playlist to listen to this exclusive interview with the governor. I hope you find the conversation interesting, inspiring, and helpful as we approach the midterm election this November.
