Gabrielle walks Alexandra through the exact inception point of the idea for NATAL, along with the viral Tweet that spurred it on. In the first half of the episode, Gabrielle shares about her experience as a political staffer and campaign worker for notable figures such as John Lewis and President Obama, and how this work ultimately equipped her to effectively tell stories through podcasting.
