In this episode, Mosh sits down with Dana Perino, former White House Press Secretary and co-anchor of Fox News’s The Five & America’s Newsroom, for a wide-ranging conversation on media, politics, and building a meaningful life and career.

Dana is the author of a new book with a collection of life advice from her friends, colleagues and mentors, ‘I Wish Someone Had Told Me.’ They also talk about the evolution of journalism, technology, politics and trust in media, the difference between “success” and “meaning” in a career, and the importance of remaining curious and optimistic.

Mosh and Dana also talk about their respective journeys to Washington, including insights from Dana’s time as White House Press Secretary for President George W. Bush and her time in the media.

Plus, some insight into handling communications for a president, and what Dana has to say about the styles of Presidents Bush, Biden, and Trump.
