07/21/21 • 40 min
But what about the Backlash? It’s real. And, grappling with it is a thing. When we go to make the bold asks we need to make to reach our goals, sometimes there’s fallout. In this episode with Shermin Kruse, attorney, Tactical Empathy Specialist, TedX Producer and thought leader we ask the question “What about the backlash?”
But we don’t just talk about the bad backlash. We also talk about what it’s like to win. To get what you want and hold your power in that moment. Shermin says “come to a knife fight, and be ready to deal with what it means when you win.”
Yep! This convo isn’t just about what to do when you lose, but also what it means to win.

Securing the bag for your non profit
Is one of your goals to start a nonprofit? Or maybe you already have one? One of the keys to a successful sustainable non-profit is consistent, significant fundraising. And one of the most powerful and under-leveraged assets for that is your board. In the episode, Beth Sandefur, fundraising event’s pro will teach us how to get the most from your board when it comes to fundraising and how to help them be successful fundraisers. She’s raised a bazillion dollars for nonprofits over her years in events and has BIG insights into where organizations miss the mark on securing the bag.
Even in the largest, most influential nonprofits suffer a board that is tentative about (or don’t realize) how instrumental they are in the sustainability of their nonprofit.
If you’ve got a non-profit (or if you’re on the board yourself!) Don’t make unnecessary mistakes in fundraising- listen to this episode.
