About this listen
Samara Ashley, CEO of The Strategic Advocacy Group and lead manager of the LA is Open campaign, joins The Bloc Power Hour with Sarah Harris to discuss how Los Angeles is rebuilding after the 2025 wildfires. Together, they explore what recovery really looks like for small businesses, workers, and communities across the region.
In this episode, we unpack:
- How the LA Is Open campaign began
- The economic impact of the wildfires on local businesses
- Why confidence and participation are critical to recovery
- How residents can actively support LA’s comeback
- What comes next as Los Angeles prepares for major global events
Recovery is more than rebuilding structures—it’s restoring economic momentum and collective confidence.
