    No matter who sits in the oval office, our work to empower women to win doesn’t stop. True change happens when women take up space, go all in, fight for what is right, and own the outcome—every single day. As we look ahead, we remain committed to creating opportunities for women to build confidence through wins and losses, at any table and in life. It's not about waiting for change to come from the top down; it's about each of us showing up, speaking up, and showing the world what women can achieve together.

    5 Ways to Survive Election Day Anxiety! 😬🗳️ Election Day can be stressful, so here are a few ways to keep calm and carry on! 1️⃣ Take deep breaths - A quick breathing exercise is grounding and helps reset your focus. 2️⃣ Get outside - A short walk or a break for fresh air can help clear your mind. 3️⃣ Limit news or social media check-ins - Avoid doom scrolling and clickbait headlines. Check for updates periodically, but fill the time until the final decision with other productive distractions. 4️⃣ Phone a friend - A chat or quick call can be comforting and uplifting. 5️⃣ Play a game of poker! - Sometimes, a bit of focus-shifting fun is exactly what you need. Open the Poker Power app and get into the game! 🃏

    Today is your chance to create an impact. Small moves can truly make a difference in the outcome. This is true in poker, in life, and in politics. Voting is a powerful way to stand up for what you believe is right, to advocate for change, and to shape the future. Just like at the poker table, every decision counts, whether it’s a card or a ballot. Make your move and cast your vote! (Image Source: Jeff Kowalsky/ Getty Images)

    This past Wednesday, we partnered with Seven24 Collective for another Poker Power community event! The night was a testament to the friendships that poker can forge, with old pals laughing over hands and new connections blossoming across the room. Jenny L was able to sit with us afterward and give us some background on her journey with Poker Power. Her heartfelt reflection on the event and poker was amazing to hear, so we had to share it. Be on the lookout for more Poker Power community events!
