Episode Details

We learned years ago that failing doesn’t mean you are a loser, it means you are a learner. Today’s guest unsuccessfully ran for office but that experience provided plenty of opportunities to learn and grow. Matt McCullough, CRNA shares those lessons learned during his campaign for the Pennsylvania State Senate in 2022 and why he has no regrets about pursuing change in his state. 

Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:

• How a conversation around a table at home made him pursue a spot in the PA State Senate.
• Why he feels nurses are the perfect candidate to serve in politics.
• What are the steps you have to take to get a campaign started?
• Why he wishes he would have started sooner to build relationships and meet more people.
• Understanding the demographics of your district before you run.
• The advice he’d give CRNAs that are thinking about running.
