In this compelling episode of The Power Within, host Alethia Jackson sits down with Congresswoman Robin Kelly, who represents Illinois’s 2nd District and is a candidate for the U.S. Senate. Their candid and thoughtful conversation explores what power and public service truly mean in today’s world.
Together, they challenge traditional notions of power—often mistaken for volume, status, or force—and instead spotlight a more grounded, authentic form of leadership rooted in trust, collaboration, and quiet confidence.
Congresswoman Kelly reflects on her personal journey of discovering inner strength, the power of relationships, and leading with unwavering principle and a deep commitment to service.
She shares how she consistently shows up, does the work, and makes a lasting impact—on her constituents, her state, and the nation.
This episode will expand your understanding of leadership, inspire you to embrace your own voice, and remind you that true power doesn’t need to shout—it leads with purpose.
