"Care over Fear" with Rebecca StClair, Vice Mayor of Muskegon, MI
Description
What does it take to stand firm in the face of outrage—even when it costs you friendships, safety, and peace of mind?
Rebecca StClair, Vice Mayor and Commissioner at Large for Muskegon, Michigan, shares what it's like to step into local leadership and almost immediately face protests, national scrutiny, and personal attacks over a deeply controversial land sale. But this isn't just a story of conflict—it's a story of conviction, resilience, and a deep love for community.
Rebecca talks openly about balancing civic duty with personal values, how fear almost kept her from running, and why she chose to lead anyway. From her city's post-industrial transformation to the ethics of difficult decisions, she offers a powerful reflection on what grounded, principled leadership looks like in the real world.
Listen in to hear what it means to care more than you fear—and to keep showing up for a community that's learning to rise together.
