Reshma Saujani kandidierte 2010 für einen Platz im US-Kongress. Trotz großer Ängste wagte sie den Schritt und scheiterte. Ihre Kandidatur endete in einer grandiosen Niederlage – und mit einer kathartischen Erfahrung: Egal wie peinlich und unangenehm ihr Scheitern war, sie versank nicht im Erdboden, das Leben ging weiter.
