Nonprofits - how do YOU communicate about the dreaded “overhead” expenses? You know that pie chart everyone uses to show how much money goes directly to programs? Yeah, I want to toss it out the window. We'll talk about why those “eight cents” on the dollar that cover essential administrative expenses are not wasted but actually crucial for keeping your nonprofit running smoothly. In this episode, we're tackling a nonprofit pro's question about updating an employee handbook. Should you hire a pro bono lawyer who DOESN'T do employment law or invest in an HR expert? Spoiler alert: Your uncle Larry, the PI lawyer, might not be the best fit here. It's all about making smart investments in your nonprofit's operations and HR to avoid headaches down the line. Trust me, you'll thank yourself later when you don't end up in a legal pickle. So, grab your headphones and join us for a lively chat about transforming how nonprofits communicate their spending to donors. We promise some laughs, a few rants, and a whole lot of practical advice. And remember, it's okay to spend money on things that keep your nonprofit running well! Let's rethink the way we tell our financial stories and embrace the true costs of running an amazing organization. In this episode, you will hear: Why you need to delete that outdated nonprofit overhead pie chart Whether pro bono is the right way to go with your employment law needs Some of our recommendations for tools to keep up with all the changing HR rules The real relationship between the back-office and your direct mission programming How you can REALLY communicate success to your donors What your fiduciary duties really have to do with all our worries about “overhead” Resources from this Episode Propel Article - A Graphic Re-Visioning of Nonprofit Overhead: https://propelnonprofits.org/blog/a-graphic-re-visioning-of-nonprofit-overhead/ The Five Whys: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_whys Sign up for the Birken Law Email list: https://birkenlaw.com/signup/ Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/birkenlaw Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

Marketing doesn't have to mean manipulation. But for many small nonprofits, common practices like donor recognition, emotional appeals, and urgency-driven fundraising can unintentionally cause harm. In this episode, Maria and anti-oppressive marketer Natalia Sanyal unpack how to shift your messaging and methods without compromising your values or your impact. Natalia works with human-first brands, helping for-profit and nonprofit organizations market more ethically. Here she shares her seven ethical marketing filters, reflects on her own missteps, and gives nonprofit leaders practical ways to rethink recognition, storytelling, and inclusion — especially in a world where perfectionism is no longer the standard.

In this episode, Jerry tackles a nuanced and often controversial topic: why does chiropractic sometimes sound like a religion? Drawing from his own experience in the profession and his exposure to its philosophical roots, Jerry explores how religious-like language and behavior have persisted in chiropractic for over a century—and whether this helps or harms the profession. This episode doesn't aim to provide all the answers. Instead, it encourages thoughtful reflection on how chiropractic is defined, communicated, and perceived—especially by the public. Topics Covered 1. Two Extremes in Chiropractic Philosophy On one end: Evidence-only chiropractors who view chiropractic purely as musculoskeletal care On the other end: Chiropractors who speak in mystical or spiritual terms, treating chiropractic as a life-transforming philosophy Why both extremes can alienate the average person and cause division within the profession 2. Parallels Between Religion and Chiropractic Origin story of chiropractic (Harvey Lillard, DD and BJ Palmer) has a near-mythical tone Green Books and 33 Principles serve as sacred texts The adjustment functions as a ritual for some practitioners Concepts like innate intelligence resemble spiritual or religious ideas Evangelistic language: “power is on,” “saving lives,” “this is my purpose” Chiropractic's internal denominations: upper cervical groups, technique systems, subluxation-based vs. evidence-based 3. Why Religious Messaging Is Problematic It creates confusion—both within the profession and with the public The message doesn't resonate with the majority of people Research shows only around 12–15% of Americans see a chiropractor regularly Going “all in” on a new-age approach would alienate at least two-thirds of current and potential patients Other medical and health professions avoid spiritualized language and reach far more people 4. Why This Messaging Still Exists It's historically embedded in the profession It gives chiropractors a stronger sense of purpose It appeals to those looking for identity, certainty, and belonging It's often easier to repeat philosophical slogans than to critically evaluate them Chiropractic schools that promote this mindset continue to attract like-minded students Key Takeaways Chiropractic isn't religion—and it doesn't need belief or faith to work The profession should focus on benefits, not belief systems Presenting chiropractic in mystical or exaggerated terms limits its appeal Chiropractors should strive for clarity, consistency, and excellence in communication and care Patients don't need to believe in a philosophy—they just need to know chiropractic helps them feel and function better What Should Chiropractors Do? Be excellent at what you do Avoid shortcuts and weekend certifications just to add services Master your craft, whether it's manual adjustments, soft tissue work, or rehab Communicate clearly and effectively Avoid sounding like a conspiracy theorist or spiritual guru Test your messaging with people outside the profession to make sure it sounds normal Focus on practical benefits Most people care about how chiropractic will help them feel and function better Benefits like improved sleep, reduced pain, better mobility, and less stress resonate more than abstract philosophy Stop repeating what you've heard without questioning it Be thoughtful and intentional with your words Avoid parroting slogans or ideas that don't hold up to scrutiny Services Mentioned Rocket Chiro Websites: Designed to convert visitors into patients Local SEO Services: Focused on improving Google Maps rankings Next Step Program: On-demand coaching for new and stuck chiropractors Free Website and SEO Assessment: No-obligation review with personalized feedback For more info, visit: www.rocketchiro.com Closing Thoughts Jerry makes it clear: he loves chiropractic. It has changed his life. But love for the profession doesn't mean ignoring its problems. If chiropractors want the public to understand and trust what they do, they need to communicate in a way that makes sense to normal people. That means cutting out the spiritual fluff and focusing on what actually helps. If you're ready to grow a chiropractic practice that connects with real people and delivers real results, this episode is for you. Want Help Growing Your Practice?

How to Ask Better Questions Without Saying "Why?" Stakeholder Whispering: Secret to Better Communication Episode 261 (Bill is based in New Mexico) In this conversation with Bill Shander we explore: How to uncover what your stakeholders really need—beyond what they ask for Why your first idea is often just an automated response How to apply the Socratic method to guide people toward their own insight Why asking “why” directly can feel hostile, and what to say instead The power of “chunky segmentation” to clarify vague communication How to balance divergent and convergent questions to get to the truth What aporia means—and why a little confusion leads to breakthrough thinking Why your visuals must reflect meaning, not just style When and how AI can support visual storytelling and insight Why it's crucial to practice stakeholder whispering on yourself first ----- About our guest, Bill Shander: Bill has been teaching data storytelling and visualization for about 10 years for clients around the world and on on Linkedin Learning. He is the author of "Stakeholder Whispering: Uncover What People Need Before Doing What they Ask" You can find his book here: Stakeholder Whispering ----- Key lessons from this conversation: 1. Most stakeholders don't know what they really need. Insight: Stakeholder requests are often surface-level assumptions, not true needs. Your job is to dig deeper. 2. Your first idea is usually just an automated response. Insight: Pause before acting. The first idea might be convenient, but often lacks strategic depth. 3. Use Socratic questioning to help people uncover their own truth. Insight: Ask layered questions to lead stakeholders into self-awareness rather than handing them answers. 4. Avoid hostile “why” questions—ask with curiosity instead. Insight: Reframe your language: say “Tell me more about…” instead of “Why did you do that?” 5. Translate ambiguous requests using “chunky segmentation.” Insight: Break vague statements (e.g., “We do masterclasses”) into discrete elements to clarify meaning. 6. Push stakeholders into a state of puzzlement (aporia). Insight: Confusion can be a productive step toward clarity—help stakeholders get there. 7. Visuals are communication tools—not just decoration. Insight: Choose visuals based on the real message, not just what's easy to draw. 8. AI is a helpful partner, but only if you know your message. Insight: Tools like AI are only effective after you've clarified your intent and message. 9. Leaders should hire people who push back. Insight: Order-takers may be efficient, but real innovation comes from collaborators who challenge assumptions. 10. Practice stakeholder whispering on yourself first. Insight: Self-questioning sharpens your ability to lead others through discovery and insight. ----- ----more---- Your Intended Message is the podcast about how you can boost your career and business success by honing your communication skills.

Aviate, Navigate, Communicate Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. In flying an aircraft, there's a saying regarding priorities: “Aviate, Navigate, Communicate.” First, fly the plane.   Second, navigate to where you want to go. Third, communicate with others. This prioritizes the pilot's activities. This applies to founders. In the startup world, the founder must Operate, Direct, Communicate. The founder must first and foremost keep the startup running. Then the founder must maintain the direction to go in. Finally, the founder must communicate with others. Fundraising is an important activity, but it rests on the foundation of the startup running well. Before launching a fundraiser campaign, make sure the operations are in place and can run without the founder for the most part. Also, make sure the business is on track for the direction in which to go. This will free up the founder to run the fundraising campaign, which includes communication with others.  Operate, Direct, Communicate   Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at:   Check out our other podcasts here:   For Investors check out:   For Startups check out:   For eGuides check out:   For upcoming Events, check out    For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group    Please , share, and leave a review.

In this special episode, recorded during the Ratio Forum in Sofia, journalist Maria Cheresheva joins as guest host to speak with one of the world's top experts on misinformation and digital society: Professor Stephan Lewandowsky. A leading cognitive scientist at the University of Bristol and a global authority on how online platforms clash with human cognition, Prof. Lewandowsky helps us unpack some of the most pressing questions of our time:

How do parents and other caregivers know if there are firearms in homes where their children play? And how should they ask about how those guns are stored? According to the CDC, the vast majority of firearm deaths involving young children are the result of guns that were not stored safely. A bill enacting "Francesco's law" passed the New York State Assembly on Wednesday. In part, it establishes "violations for the failure to safely store rifles, shotguns, and firearms in the presence of a minor or a prohibited person." Our guests this hour discuss how to communicate about firearm storage and safety. In studio: Crystal Craig, M.D., general academic pediatrics fellow and instructor of pediatrics at the University of Rochester Medical Center Adam Oplinger, R.N., pediatric trauma program manager at the Kessler Trauma Center at the University of Rochester Medical Center Jennifer West, Ph.D., co-director of the Firearm Injury Prevention Program at the University of Rochester Medical Center, clinical psychologist, and parent of teenagers

Today, we're revisiting a popular episode from the vault–How to Communicate Your Needs as a Mom with Mara Glatzel, author of Needy.  As moms, we're often socialized to be selfless—to put everyone else's needs above our own, leaving us on the backburner. But when we deplete ourselves and neglect our own needs, it often leads to mental health struggles, resentment, relationship conflict, and burnout. Unlearning that socializing and discovering how to communicate your needs isn't always easy.  On today's vault episode, Mara and I discuss why moms deserve to be a priority and how they can take responsibility for their own needs.  Learn more about your ad choices.

It's Steve Preda here with the Management Blueprint and my guest today is Nathan Miller, founder and CEO of Miller Ink. and he's also a seasoned communication strategist with deep experience in business, government, diplomacy, crisis management and issue advocacy. Nathan, welcome to the show. Thanks for having me, Steve. It's great to be here. Well, it's good to have you. And I've got some questions I'm really curious about that I want to ask you. And starting with my favorite one, what is your personal “Why” and what are you doing to manifest it in your business? My personal “Why” really is a couple of things. One, our business makes a huge impact for a lot of people and to feel that impact every day is tremendous and it gives me a lot of satisfaction and pride. The people who work for Miller Ink., the people who work here and launched their careers through this company, our clients, every day you get to be in rooms with people who are solving problems, addressing challenges, navigating different challenges, and helping them get to a better place is incredibly gratifying. You want to be somebody who's of service in that way. We do a lot of advocacy and mission-driven work as well as an agency. I've done a lot of work on behalf of the Jewish community and the State of Israel, which has also been very meaningful. And for me, the most important personal “Why” is I have three kids and so much of what I do is really for them. And that is really one of my big North Stars in life. Yeah, well, lots of meaningful stuff in your life. And you left the UN Security Council, where you were a writer, to become a PR entrepreneur. So tell me about this journey. The journey was crazy. My career began, I got a master's in public policy here at UCLA. I went to Europe for a little bit. I worked in Brussels with the EU institutions there at a think tank. And then I came back and I worked at a PR firm in LA for a couple of years early in my career. I got a job as the chief speechwriter for Israel's mission to the UN. And it was a crazy time to be doing that job. I was really young, and it was the outbreak of the Arab Spring. A lot of different things that were happening in the Middle East and in the world. So, fascinating moment. And I did that job for three years. And at that point, my now wife and I were dating, and she was in LA and I was in New York, and we had to figure out a place to be. So I said, you know what, I'm gonna come back. And I think I have a problem with authority is what I learned working in big institutions in different ways. And I like to be able to set the pace of what I do. And so I say, every entrepreneur has a different cross that they're trying to not bear. And for me, it was really having control of my own destiny, and that mattered a lot to me. So I was a young guy. I saw communications changing rapidly, really rapidly. When I started at the UN, then the ambassador, Susan Rice, they asked her if she was on Twitter and she said, I don't do diplomacy by haiku. And that was like a funny thing.

Episode Summary: This episode features Jon Schwabish, an economist and data visualization expert, who discusses how school administrators can use data visualization to better understand and communicate data to improve their schools. Key Takeaways: Data visualization can help school administrators quickly understand their data and make better decisions. Visualizing data can reveal trends and patterns that might not be apparent from looking at raw data in spreadsheets. School administrators should use a variety of graph types to communicate data effectively. Different graphs are better suited for different types of data and audiences. Qualitative data, such as student stories and experiences, is just as important as quantitative data. Qualitative data can provide context and insights that numbers alone cannot. School administrators should have a clear goal in mind when visualizing data. What do they want their audience to learn or do with the information? Actionable Steps: Start by identifying your audience and what they need from the data. Consider the platform where the data will be presented. Use clear and concise language to explain the data. Walk people through the data step by step, especially if they are not familiar with the graph type. Use visual elements, such as color, size, and position, to highlight important information. Resources: Jon Schwabish's website: policyviz.com Jon Schwabish on social media: @JSchwabish Qualitative data analysis tools: Envivo, Dedoose, Atlas.ti Call to Action: Take the time to create effective data visualizations. Use data to identify problems and solutions in your school. Communicate data clearly and effectively to all stakeholders.

In this week's episode, Dr. Kim and Mrs. Nancy unpack the powerful topic of expectations—focusing on how to clearly express what you need from your spouse. With honest conversation, a willingness to listen, and an open heart, you can transform how you communicate and connect in your relationship.   Quotes from this episode: “I just thought you knew. And when you didn't I would go along and get resentful” “We were trying to fit each other in the mold.”  “Our first big argument scared the heck out of me. My unrealistic expectation was that we would never fight.”  “It's a good idea to have a signal or cue so that you make your spouse aware.”  Questions for Reflection: What are some expectations—spoken or unspoken—that we each bring into our marriage, and how well do we feel they've been understood by each other? When was a time we misunderstood one another because expectations weren't clearly communicated? What can we learn from that moment? How can we create more space in our relationship for honest, judgment-free conversations about what we each need or hope for? What's one expectation we can both express more clearly this week—and how can we support each other in meeting it with love and grace?   Mentioned in this Episode: Find Dr. Kim on Instagram This month's resource is for every couple.
