Election Day is March 3, and that means it’s time to get informed and get to the polls. With so many names on the ballot, it can be hard to keep track of who’s running for what and why it matters.

On this episode of Let’s Talk Local, Sarah sits down with two candidates running for Senate, Ken Paxton and Wesley Hunt, to talk through the issues shaping this election and what’s at stake for Texans. (Sen. John Cornyn was invited to join the conversation but did not respond to our request.)

Sarah asks the questions voters care about most: their priorities if elected, why this moment matters, and how decisions made now will impact Texas at the federal level. From concerns about national debt to broader questions about culture, security, and the future direction of the country, nothing is off the table.

Every election matters, but this one will help determine who speaks for Texans on the national stage. Get informed, hear directly from the candidates, and then make your voice heard on March 3.

Sometimes we expect people in certain professions to fit a specific mold… and sometimes, someone comes along and completely shatters it.

On this episode of Let’s Talk Local, Sarah is joined by Dr. Sasha Ortiz, a leading clinical psychologist in DFW whose work spans early autism detection, supporting veterans and first responders, and exploring modern, alternative treatments for depression, PTSD, and other mental health challenges.

Dr. Ortiz also shares thoughtful insight on kids and teens navigating social media, a conversation many parents and caregivers are having daily.

And yes… she also just handed over her crown as Ms. World International.

Sasha is truly one of a kind. Whether you’re a parent, caregiver, or simply someone seeking a deeper understanding of mental health and healing, this conversation is one you won’t want to miss.

We all face seasons that test our strength and our faith. In the first episode of 2026, Sarah sits down with author, speaker, mother, and church leader Landra Hughes to share how faith carried her through life’s hardest moments. Her story is honest, inspiring, and the perfect way to begin a new year with renewed hope.
