About This Podcast

I am pulling back the curtain on not-for-profit businesses, sharing the real stories and advice around running nonprofit businesses. I've been a part of the nonprofit sector since childhood and a consultant for nearly 20 years. I've learned a lot about how not to run not-for-profit businesses and am ready to share my raw experiences and guidance. I invite guests on the podcast to share their insights and perspectives. Our conversations are authentic, fun, and brutally honest. Join me to go behind the unicorn magic of nonprofits to better understand them, work for them, support them, and engage most effectively.
