I'm Sharon McMahon, a longtime high school government and law teacher who went viral for my social media posts informing the public on political misinformation, the history and function of the US government, and ways to support democracy. There are more than a million people in my online community.

Beyond social media, I speak publicly, host one of the largest online book clubs, make frequent TV and radio appearances, and my weekly podcast, Here's Where It Gets Interesting is ranked in the top 1% of all podcasts, with over one million downloads a month.

I am happy to speak on:

  • Helping foster more civil online discourse
  • Forging a path in online philanthropy, and building your community to help others
  • Creating trust, and growing an audience in the world of independent social media journalism
  • Teachers and the US educational system
  • Dispelling misinformation
  • Current events and the news
