Legislative advocacy can feel intimidating, but according to Betsy Cunningham, it’s not rocket science.
With more than 16 years in multifamily and a deep passion for association engagement, Betsy shares why advocacy is far simpler (and more personal) than people think. You don’t need to know everything about everything. You just need to know one or two things about one or two things and be willing to tell your story.
In this episode, we unpack:
- Why advocacy isn’t scary and why lawmakers actually want to hear from you
- How associations make engagement easier than you think
- The power of mentorship: having a mentor, mentoring someone else, and running the race alongside your peers
- Why people shouldn’t confuse purpose with career
- How local, state, and national involvement build on one another
Betsy reminds us that advocacy isn’t about being perfect. It’s about being present. And when you show up as yourself, that’s when real influence begins.
