Can politics actually feel good? The answer is YES. 💜 Our founder Katie Paris took the #TED stage this summer to talk about how conversations with your friends can have a big impact on elections. And now, her TED Talk is officially LIVE! Watch Katie’s TED Talk ⬇️

Campaigns spend millions to influence voters. This works better
Katie Paris quit her career in Washington, DC, to figure out how to make politics feel less like strangers shouting at each other and more like friends looking out for each other. In this practical talk, she reveals why conversations between real people can have a bigger impact on elections than anything millions of campaign dollars can buy.
