Nick Zerwas
Monday, 11 August, 2025
Today on Ready: Leaders to Know, I sit down with Nick Zerwas, a former Elk River city council member, state legislator, and most recently a lobbyist representing a wide range of interests at the Capitol. Nick was born with a serious heart condition and wasn't expected to live past infancy - but Nick defied the odds. From serving in the legislature to building bipartisan relationships with candy in hand, Nick's story is one of grit, connection, and the courage of being his authentic self. In this episode, we talk about his journey, family, and what it really means to lead with courage. Tune in each week for inspiring stories of leadership and change.Follow us on Instagram @readyleaderstoknow
