E5: Where He Stands: Ryan Binkley on Faith, Freedom, and the Future

Episode 5 of The Network Blender just dropped! “Where He Stands: Ryan Binkley on Faith, Freedom, and the Future.” This episode is one you don’t want to miss. We sat down with Ryan Binkley the day before the March 3rd election, and the conversation couldn’t have been more timely. In this episode, he shares where he stands on the issues people are asking about right now. Not soundbites… real answers. We dig into topics like amnesty, PAC money, and the political machine, along with what’s driving his campaign and vision for the future. Since recording this episode, Ryan advanced to a runoff, so the campaign continues and the conversation about the future of the district is far from over. But the conversation didn’t stop at policy. We also talked about faith, family, and the personal side of leadership. What shapes his values? What does life look like outside the campaign trail? And how does faith guide the decisions he’s making for the future? Then we shift gears into one of our favorite segments… Zen & Juice 🧘‍♀️🥤 This week’s topic: Sleep Deprivation. Because let’s be honest… most of us are running on caffeine and crossed fingers. We talked about how getting 7–9 hours of sleep can impact everything from mental clarity to sugar cravings and emotional balance. So we decided to make it interesting… We officially called out two community leaders to join us in a challenge: ✨ Alison Belliveau ✨ Mayor Jeremiah McClure The Challenge: For 7 days, get 7–9 hours of sleep every night. At the end of the week, answer three questions: 1️⃣ Do you feel calmer? 2️⃣ Are you craving less sugar? 3️⃣ Is your mind clearer? And we want YOU to join in too. What happens if we keep it going for 7 days… 14 days… 21 days? Does better sleep equal better decisions, better focus, and maybe even a better life? Jump into the challenge with us and report back. 🎧 Faith. 🎧 Freedom. 🎧 The future. …and maybe a little more sleep along the way. #TheNetworkBlender #episode5 #RyanBinkley #RunoffElection #ZenAndJuice #sleepchallenge
