Ashley Cheng never dreamed of starting a podcast. “I remember growing up, every time I had to public speak, I would break down crying,” she says. But in 2019, she and a group of friends created The Rabble podcast, which aims to demystify the voting process in Texas. Working on the podcast helped Cheng find her voice and understand the power of using it.
