<p>On this podcast, I interview Mirabela Punga, a native of Moldova, and now, with her husband and children, a resident of Bismarck, North Dakota for over a decade. </p><p>With all of the talk surrounding immigration, particularly in the past decade, I thought it would be good to hear from someone who immigrated to the United States and went through the process of becoming an American citizen. </p><p>We get to hear of the challenges faced after arriving in Lakota, North Dakota speaking limited English, with little more than three suitcases, and a determination to succeed. Mirabela and her husband have succeeded, and are now small business owners in Bismarck, operating the Little Odessa Eastern European Market.</p><p><br></p><p>Little Odessa Eastern European Market Website:</p><p><a href="https://www.little-odessa.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://www.little-odessa.com/</a></p><p><br></p><p>Little Odessa Eastern European Market</p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/littleodessand/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://www.instagram.com/littleodessand/</a></p>

<p>Former Governor Ed Schafer was elected governor of North Dakota in 1992 and served for two terms. He was a popular governor that could have probably been elected to a third term, but he walked away from the office, followed by service in 2008 as the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture under President George W. Bush.</p><p>On this episode, the governor talks about why he decided to run for office in 1992, his favorite thing about campaigning for the statewide office, and the most difficult decisions he had to make as governor. </p><p>Unlike many former office holders, he has not written a book on his time in office, but he has been generous with his time and speaks frequently on podcasts and a variety of other platforms.</p>
