Tracy Solheim's creative writing career began in the 4th grade when she published her first book.  It was a bestseller–mainly because her dad bought all ten copies she made on the school’s prehistoric Xerox machine. From there, she moved to writing a monthly column in a local newspaper. A bachelor’s degree in journalism from the University of Tennessee landed her in Washington, DC, writing reports for Congress while pursuing a Master’s degree in Legislative Affairs from The George Washington University. Other than a brief gig with NBC Sports at the (1988) Seoul Olympics, most of her early writing consisted of crafting lengthy government reports, but in May 2013 her dream of becoming a published author came true with the release of her debut novel, GAME ON.  Her latest book, Just for Kicks, is the first of her newest series.

Tracy was born in Canada and grew up and trained in England. She is married to her soulmate Grant and they have seven children.

Whilst working and raising her family she became unwell and experienced the frustration of conventional medicine not being able to provide a solution for her healing. It was then she discovered the power of Integrative (Functional) Medicine. This combines the best of conventional and complementary medicine and biochemistry to treat the root cause of poor health. With her own health experience and being a (recovering) ‘perfectionist' Tracy takes your health very personally!

Imagine this: You see a film that fosters such big thoughts and ideas that you have to share it with others, and discuss! That's the idea behind Tracy Nguyen-Chung and Ciara Lacy's work. In ‘Connection,’ both filmmakers follow Autumn Harry, a member of the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe, on her journey as a fly-fisher. Along the way, they bring to the forefront the multitude of connections intersecting with and highlighted by our experiences on the water. In this episode we talk about the importance of these connections and some of the prevalent stereotypes in fishing and how to change them. 1:00 Humanities Montana - check out their 'Gather Round' toolkit -- it's meant to inspire big discussions that matter to people in the great outdoors (well, all of us) 5:00 The art of telling a culturally specific story that resonates universally 7:00 From Vietnam to the U.S., a father's passion for fishing is passed along to his daughter, Tracy 8:30 And in Hawaii, Ciara grew up in a 'catch and release' family when it came to tilapia... which has oddly made a comeback in fine dining 10:00 Tracy and Ciara's film is "Connection", it started with a vision to uplift the image of people of color in fishing. It's the story of an indigenous woman and her discovery of fly-fishing. 14:00 Connections... to geography, to culture, to water, to environment, to self 17:00 Brown Folks Fishing - most storytelling is through Insta; it's a volunteer-run non-profit to gather and support a community of BIPOC anglers 19:00 Growing up in a family hobby, like fishing, and then promptly leaving it during college... and making a full circle as an adult 21:00 Public-facing parts of the fishing community -- industry, Insta profiles, groups, etc -- they're predominantly white (and male). The conservation space is similar. 24:00 People from BIPOC communities are totally out there fishing (hugely!), but they're just not represented in most of the industry 26:00 Two privileged and flawed points of view from naysayers: fishing is a place where we should go to 'escape' and BIPOC anglers don't exist in this space unless it's affordable. 28:00 Storytelling as an advocacy tool. For Ciara, it started with seeing her mom as an organizer for the Native Hawaiian community 30:00 Part of good storytelling is letting people know what they should be thinking about... those life challenges that slip the radar for some. (Pssst... that's what the 'Gather Round' toolkits are all about!) 36:00 What even IS a 'conservation angler'? It’s not something that’s automatically given to you the minute you step into the river. It takes intention and practice. 40:00 Spin-fishing: it's totally cool, everyone! 45:00 'Connections' the film started as a passion project... its trajectory has far surpassed early expectations 47:30 Adventures from documentary filmmaking: Getting an inmate a last-minute bouquet of flowers on his release day so he could give them to his fiancée. 49:00 On being human first, filmmaker second 50:30 "Out of State" documentary, which first aired on PBS 51:00 Find Ciara's work at CiaraLacy.com 52:00 Making fishing films?

Building on our previous conversation about CRM with Ashley Faison, in this episode we're talking about data leadership with Tracy Van Solkema. Tracy is the Research and Data Services Specialist at the Grand Rapids Community Foundation. When it comes to the topic of using data to advance the work of your organization, you'd be hard-pressed to find a person more passionate about this topic than Tracy.  Why is a CRM or donor database important for a nonprofit or foundation? Shared institutional knowledge – ensures the documentation of important data and knowledge from long-time employees Less fear of organizational change – allows for easier staff transitions and keeps the work moving forward in someone's absence, addressing the old 'what happens if you're hit by a bus?' scenario Access to information – provides all staff access to the same information even if they are off-site or at a different office Workflow improvements – reminders and more can lead to more efficient processes Strengthens relationships – the data helps facilitate relationships and gives insights on how to engage donors and prospects. It's the starting point to effectively creating a strategy for both fundraising and marketing Tracy emphasizes CRM (Customer or Constituent Relationship Management technology) is a key differentiator. An Excel spreadsheet can work as a database just storing data. However, what it can't do is manage relationships well. CRM goes to the next level, allowing an organization to manage relationships, analyze and report on data, and create data-driven insights. Defining data and common data points to track   In this context, Tracy defines data the information you store about your donors, prospects, volunteers, and the data related to how they interact with your organization. Common Data Points: Biographical information – name, address, phone number, email address, gender, etc. How is the person connected to your organization? Gift history Less Common Data Points: How was a gift solicited? Was a gift in response to a specific appeal? How was the gift made (mailed check or online)? Has the donor attended recent events? Interactions with staff and the qualitative content of those interactions. Every donor has a story! How does an organization decide what data to track? Tracy recommends ensuring your basic biographical data is tracked consistently as a starting point. This means ensuring you have data entry processes and procedures in place for what needs be entered and how it is entered in your CRM. When it comes to tracking additional data, Tracy starts with the end in mind. She asks, how will we use this data? Will it inform our fundraising or marketing strategy? If not, maybe it's not necessary. She also suggests not wasting time tracking a data point you can get from other data (e.g. tracking current donor when this information is obvious by their gift history). Tracy lives by a quote hanging above her desk: "One key component to fundraising success is to know that information is power and that power resides in your database!" An example of using the power of your database is using your data to segmenting appeals. Use your data to create appeals with messaging specific to the audience. Segmenting may be based on past gift history, relationship to the organization (i.e. volunteer, board member, etc.), philanthropic interest, or age. On the topic of age, Tracy provides great examples and shares how to access this important information. A relationship endowment—Tracy's philosophy about database management Tracy thinks of the database as an endowment. As data is added to the database, the information and the depth of information grow in perpetuity, and through this growth, relationships can flourish for the organization now and into the future. When you think of your database as your "relationship endowment," you can see the value of maintaining it and monitoring it with high standards, just as you would a financial endowment. The people who manage and oversee your relationship endowment should be well trained, and your board and leadership should take interest in this endowment. Your relationship endowment is the foundation that backs your personal connections over time.  What is data leadership? Embracing the management and use of data across an entire organization starts with leadership. Tracy says that four key things make up data leadership:   Real buy-in: The shift in thinking about data is not just about one person or department at your organization. It is a shift in mentality, starting with leadership and trickling down to all parts of the organization. If data leadership does not start from the top, it does not work. This means not just saying or understanding that data is important, but doing something about. Often what this looks like is empowering those who understand and are trained to use the database to make decisions about the data. It can also include leadership asking questions about data and using it for benchmarking and understanding your work. Embracing change: Technology change can be difficult, especially the process of converting to a new CRM or putting procedures in place that make it so people have to make more time to record data properly. The biggest mistake Tracy sees people make when choosing a new CRM is trying to use the new system the same way the old one was used. By not embracing change, an organization might miss out on new, innovative or more efficient ways of doing things. Investing in data collection and data maintenance: It takes time to manage and keep data clean, and create policies for how data is used and stored. The data will be used to help tell a story, manage relationships, and analyze, evaluate and benchmark. An investment of time, dollars, or additional and qualified staff to do the work may be needed. Investing in people: The stewardship, cultivation, or fundraising strategy for every donor starts with the data and the person that manages that data. Data input, management, and analyzation is not a task that should be given to just anyone. Invest in a seasoned, knowledgeable and trained staff to manage data. Training is essential—No one comes out of college knowing how to manage a nonprofit CRM. Staff should be empowered to learn about the evolving landscape of how we can better use the data and be given the time and resources to manage the data, and most importantly, they should have a seat at the table. People who manage/analyze the data should be involved in strategy and decision-making., and be part of meetings with marketing and development.   Tips for organizations getting started with data: If you are a leader: Embrace data leadership Use your data to make decisions Ask questions about data If you are a database manager: Data that isn’t clean, it isn’t valuable Create practices, policies, and procedures in place to ensure clean data Create standards and stick with them If you are a development/fundraising person: Record your interactions with donors Your relationship with the database manager is really important. Bring your database person in your strategy meeting. They can provide a lot of value!

(2016/9/16) Tracy Steven Peal: Speed & Movement Specialist; Tracy, a friend, student and colleague had a far reaching conversation with me about assessing movement disfunction and helping athletes develop patterns and programs for maximal achievements. I feel blessed to have the opportunity to work with Tracy and his amazing students. This conversation has been a long time coming and you can anticipate many more in depth discussions in the future with this gentleman. Unfortunately the first 20 minutes of our conversation had a microphone malfunction, but I decided to post the full conversation. You can listen to the full conversation or feel free to skip ahead to 28:30 where Tracy’s mic is fixed.
