I finally finished the whole episode and all I can think is, “what a delight.” She answered your questions directly and didn’t beat around the bush or try to go back to talking points. Honestly it made me think to Zohran Mamdani and some commentary I’m hearing about passing the baton to a new generation, along the lines of, “maybe we could all have nice things if people in power just let Gen X and Millennials have a turn.” I’m here for it. I hope the race goes well for Lt. Governor Coleman!
This was the best interview with a politician I have ever heard. I’m new to KY, not sure if we are going to stay here long term, and desperately homesick for the mountain west. But Jacqueline Coleman makes me want to stay in KY and put down roots.
Great episode, loved every minute of it. Her love for the people of Kentucky shines through, as does her heart of service. Wish I could vote for her, sending hope from Texas that she wins.
This seemed like a conversation among friends (because it was) and not a typical politician responding to questions with practiced answers run through a team of consultants. She seems lovely, and I’m sitting in Florida completely jealous.
Yes! Thinking the same thing. An actual *conversation* with a politician, how refreshing! Also she sounds lovely and competent and normal. Jealous here in MS too!
Hey! Thanks for an awesome and thoughtful interview. I am a native of Kentucky, but having lived the last 31 years of my life in NC I don’t know much about Jacqueline Coleman. So after listening this morning, I looked up some stuff about her and was thrilled to learn that we share the same birthday. On the day she was born (I think I read in Danville, KY), I was turning 18 in Paducah and working at my first real job at Noble Park and getting things ready to start the fall semester at Murray State (also in Western Kentucky). As always, I love the content of this podcast because I learn something or get stretched every time I listen. But also, do you know what it does to my soul to hear the voices and accents of women from the same part of the world as me??? Thanks, PP Team, for all that you do!!
Beth, you have achieved the goal of being taken seriously. Time to set a new one!

great interview
i wanted to hear more about her experience as a coach, because what she did share was powerful

My thoughts exactly! It was refreshing.
Thinking the same thing from California..

That’s what I was thinking - sitting with envy in Nevada.
