Did you know that bathrooms and showers – particularly in shared spaces – are a veritable breeding ground for pathogen, some of which we see in the form of mold and the build-up of toxic bio films on surfaces. Body fats and soap scums provide a rich food sauce for micro-organisms such as airborne bacteria Serratia Marcescens, which thrive in humid conditions. We know that people with weakened immune systems are so much more vulnerable to the illnesses associated with infection and let's face it, none of us go into the shower with an expectation that we might get sick. So how do we keep those shower walls clean? Well let's think big – BIG TILES. Porcelanosa have developed XXL Hygienic Ceramic Tiles that are 5 feet long - which means just one piece fits the wall of a shower or tub surround. XTONE Porcelain slabs are 10 feet high which means a floor to ceiling surface with no joints. Why does this matter? Well hygienic glaze will not harbor pathogen and surface impurities are easily removed to prevent build up – it is reassuring to know the evidence - INTERNATONAL STANDARDS Test ISO 10545 - Resistance to Stains -  has determined these surfaces can be easily cleaned and the most difficult contaminants washed away, greatly reducing the need for aggressive chemicals. Think about this. When we unload our dishwasher our ceramic tableware is sparkling clean, sanitized and fresh to use - again and again. The principle is the same with large ceramic walls - So, when planning the shower surrounds for your facilities please reach out to Porcelanosa. The designer in you will love the incredible options and your specification will deliver the longest & best lifecycle value bar none.

Today, we take a trip to The Foundry on Buffalo's East Side where Thomas O'Neil-White speaks with Megan McNally, Executive Director, and Tamara Zantell, Business Development Director. The three have an in-depth discussion about the organization's start and impact on the community.

Are you leveraging the power of strong community relationships? This episode is full of strategies leaders can use to build lasting relationships in their communities and help diversify their funding with earned income. I spoke with special guest, Megan McNally, co-founder of The Foundry, who shared how she's using the relationships she's built to fund her nonprofit primarily through earned income.  She discussed how she is building a social enterprise, partnering with the community, and not heavily relying on fundraising to operate her nonprofit. Megan also shared what financial management looks like for her, how she came to understand the true cost of things like time and efficiency, and why it's important to have a strong financial foundation. This is a great episode for nonprofit leaders looking to use the relationships they have with the community to diversify their revenue streams.    About Megan Megan is the co-founder of The Foundry. She graduated from Barnard College with a degree in Environmental Policy, has worked on green building construction sites across the country, and gained experience in woodworking at Yestermorrow Design/Build School. She moved back to Buffalo to run a woodworking business from 2011-2014 and is passionate about supporting women and people of color in "non-traditional" career pathways.  Megan is active in Big Brothers Big Sisters and encourages everyone to consider mentorship. She has been the recipient of the Women Who Move The City Award, BizJournal's 30 under 30 Award, Protege of The Year from the University at Buffalo's Center for Entrepreneurial Leadership, and one of the finalists in the Community Foundation of Greater Buffalo Centennial Awards.   Read the podcast transcript here.   Episode Summary In this episode, you'll learn the importance of diversifying revenue streams and how the community can help support your nonprofit's mission through earned income, including. Providing support and advocacy for creative entrepreneurs (5:00) Creating a social enterprise and new revenue streams (10:45) Leveraging community relationships for earned income initiatives (14:20) The importance of building relationships within the community (18:45) What financial management looks like for a nonprofit leader (24:00) Shifting your mindset to understand the true cost of things (29:15) How a strong financial foundation impacts your mission (35:30)   Teasers “I was doing environmental science and learned about a lot of the challenges around the old housing and housing stock in the city of Buffalo. And I ended up convincing my school to buy a house in the foreclosure option.” “In terms of our approach, we really try to look at what sort of earned income can we do?” It's an opportunity for us to employ our young people who are practicing the skills that they're developing, and they get paid to do it. It's justification that the skills that they're learning can actually give you money.”   Resources The Foundry Website: https://www.thefoundrybuffalo.org/donate  Follow the Foundry on Instagram: @thefoundrybuffalo Keep up to date with the podcast: @100degreesconsulting Follow Stephanie on Instagram: @stephanie.skry/  Connect with Stephanie on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanieskryzowski/  Visit the podcast page: https://100degreesconsulting.com/strong-community-relationships      Want more of the podcast?

How such mistakes or failures are handled separates the successful businesses from the non-successful ones. Megan McNally experienced this when she started her own sports channel in 2018. She made a couple of mistakes that turned into great learning opportunities to help her build better businesses in the future. She now advises fellow women entrepreneurs to show up and build authentic businesses without the need to live up to other people's expectations. In this episode of the Lead Like A Woman Show, Andrea Heuston is joined by Megan McNally, a strategic consultant, lawyer, and angel investor, to talk about cultivating a supportive community of female founders and learning from your failures.

You don't have to do “all the everything”."You’ve got to find the ‘good enough bucket’. On one end of the spectrum, there's perfect. On the other end [there’s] going out scattershot with no real intention or strategy. Somewhere in between, there is a thoughtful approach." —  Megan McNally About Megan McNally: Megan McNally is a lawyer and strategic advisor to purpose-driven people and organizations.

Hear from Megan McNally, executive director of the Foundry, a not-for-profit small business incubator and makerspace in Buffalo, NY. Megan talks about how being a woman in a male-dominated field of woodworking inspired her to help others pursue their dreams and celebrate their differences. Her work at the Foundry has helped grow countless businesses, build community, and provide opportunity and access in a low-income neighborhood.

Episode 27 features a main character in my own Success Bully origin story. My guest is my personal butt-kicker, friend, co-conspirator and #powetribe member, Megan McNally.  As the founder of the F Bomb Breakfast Club, Founder & Principal Attorney of Doyenne Legal and now the CEO of Rhea Media, Megan encourage us to take a moment to be introspective. We all have our “Big Why” to guide us, but what are we doing to keep ourselves balanced along the way.  In “Every North Star Needs a Keel,” Megan and I talk her personal hacks to rule her time, the definition of personal balance, our shared love for Mondays and Fridays as well as the need to surround yourself with a like minded power tribe.

Episode 26 is truly an inspiring full-circle moment for me. My guest is my personal butt-kicker, friend, co-conspirator and #powetribe member, Megan McNally.  As the founder of the F Bomb Breakfast Club Founder, Principal Attorney of Doyenne Legal and now the CEO of Rhea Media,  Megan declared that 2017 was “My Year to Not Give a F**k.” Meaning she has stopped concerning herself with detractors, naysayers and anyone who doesn't believe in her ability to achieve her Big Hairy Audacious Goals. Megan shares with us her entrepreneurial journey (spoiler alert she’s been at it since her tweens), the inspiration behind F Bomb Breakfast Club and her latest ambitious adventure.

Web developer Lena Levine and Megan McNally, executive director of the makerspace incubator The Foundry, are two great examples of the New Buffalo: young, smart and kicking down doors (or, in Megan's case, making them from repurposed wood). We interviewed these very cool entrepreneurs to get the inside story of how they each came to be leaders of an empowered generation of Western New York women -- and men.
