Sanders is an author, seasoned democratic strategist, and the host of her weekend series, “Symone” on MSNBC. She joins Cleo Wade to talk about her path to becoming the youngest presidential press secretary on record at 25 and why she felt compelled to get into politics and media at a young age. She shares how she manages the demands of a high-pressure career while taking care of herself during difficult news cycles and her advice for young people looking to make a positive impact in their communities and in the world.
