Women in Politics - Running for Arkansas Senate
Episode 22
Sunday, 27 September, 2020
Ronetta Francis, candidate for Arkansas State Senate District 1, which is home to businesses such as Walmart as well as Yoga Story, owned by former guest Lynn Hancock, joins us on this episode. A corporate ethics executive, attorney, mom, wife, and woman of faith, Ronetta has built her campaign focused on health and wellness, public education, economic development and inclusion. Ronetta has been running an amazing campaign and it's clear her love for Arkansas runs deep. We'll talk with her about why she decided to run, the opportunities for impact she thinks is in the future for the Arkansas Senate, and why NOW was the right time for her to run. What we're talking about: Ronetta shares a bit about her background and how a transition from a big job to a big question about 'what's next?' led her to consider a run for office. When Ronetta left her job as an ethics and employment attorney at Walmart, she turned her attention to writing a book called Bloom Where You Are Planted which serves as the foundation for her executive coaching business. She shares her story about moving forward with her candidacy - and that it started when Representative Nicole Clowney encouraged her to consider. Three years later, she did just that. Finally in August of 2019, she realized tomorrow is not promised, and decided to run for Senate shortly after that. Learning about how to run can be an on-the-job experience. There are a number of organizations such as Emerge Arkansas who can help. Ronetta shares her favorite and most surprising aspects of campaigning during a pandemic. Fundraising is an integral part of campaigning, but it used to make Ronetta break out in a cold sweat - she figured it out and grew as a candidate. She shares her reasons why education and inclusion are important to her, her neighbors, and Arkansas. Why Arkansas will need advocacy and outreach to encourage our policymakers to pass the proposed state Hate Crime Bill How she's loving Tik Tok these days and why our neighbors should vote for her Contact Ronetta and Register to Vote: www.ronettafrancis.org Facebook.com/RonettaforArkansas Instagram.com/RonettaFrancisforAR1 Twitter.com/RonettaforAR1 www.studentvote.org Don't forget to follow us on Instagram @talkbravely
