Welcome back to the Second Season of 'Flip the Script"! We are coming at you from a new studio, Refugio Music Studios in National City, where we are excited to get even more connected to the community. On this episode, we sit down with Dr. Maria Nieto Senour and Nora Vargas, two trailblazers elected to serve on the governing boards of the San Diego Community College District and Southwestern College, respectively. Both women have incredible stories of their path to leadership and how they work to create a higher education system that works for all people from all backgrounds so everyone can achieve their dreams.

Don't miss the seventh and final episode of Season One of Flip the Script: The Future is Female. This conversation features the audacious local leader: Honorable Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez Fletcher, representing the 80th district of the California State Assembly. Join co-hosts Nicole Capretz and Ismahan Abdullahi as we learn about what drives her to be a fierce advocate for her constituents.

On the sixth episode of Flip the Script, the Future if Female, our co-hosts sit down with the audacious and outspoken civil rights leader and co-chair of the Women's March, Linda Sarsour. A force of nature, she is a self-described unapologetic Palestinian Muslim woman committed to fighting for civil rights and social justice. Sarsour takes us back to the events that inspired her to become a leading voice for a more just world, how she navigates life as a national public figure, and her recommendations for how progressives can build a successful movement rooted in community and systemic change. She will challenge you, inspire you and leave you thinking for days to come. It is not an interview to be missed!

On the fifth episode of Flip the Script: The Future is Female, co-hosts Nicole Capretz and Ismahan Abdullahi dive into a deep conversation with Councilwomen Alejandra Sotelo Solis and Mona Rios as they navigate the tricky waters of sexism and misogyny in politics, especially with their own council colleagues. These two brave and fearless women with deep multi-generational roots in National City find strength in each other, family and community -- and a belief that they must stand up to intimidation and bullying in order to set the stage for a more equitable, inclusive and just future for all residents. Get ready to be outraged and inspired.
