Podcasts about nonprofits

Starting an environmental nonprofit often begins with a vision and the determination to make a difference, but it also comes with challenges in funding, community support, and long-term sustainability. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, Bart Oor and Sander Brienen share the story of how they created Balean, a platform designed to help independent projects and nonprofits access the support they need to thrive. Independent changemakers are reshaping how conservation work is done. Bart and Sander explain the obstacles they faced, how collaboration shaped their journey, and why Balean is launching in October as a dedicated space to fund and grow independent ocean initiatives. If you're passionate about starting your own project or nonprofit, this conversation provides both inspiration and practical advice.

Public broadcast federal funding has been completely cut. Our federal government will no longer fund public broadcasting. Pres. Trump has ordered the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) to cease any funding to PBS or NPR. In addition, he signed Congressional bill that clawed back already approved CPB funding. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Right up front here, let me just state loudly that there are some amazing independent TPAs (third-party administrators) out there who have the expertise, the scrappy willfulness, and the deep desire to do right by their clients, their self-insured employer clients.

And look, they may be facing some of the same headwinds that plan sponsors themselves face, like anticompetitive contracts, brokers who are up to no good, etc. So, just keep that in mind as you listen. And the main point of all of this if you are a plan sponsor is, find a good TPA partner, which, as Bryce Platt has said about consultants but same rules apply about TPAs here, the difficulty is being informed enough to tell the difference. So, the goal of this show is to help with that, the “be informed enough to tell the difference.” All of this being said, this is technically a Take Two; but we trimmed it down and welcome to a whole new intro. So, call this a refresher and an update about a really, really important topic from last year that is becoming extremely (maybe even more) relevant this year. Really relevant. Consider, for example, the show with Claire Brockbank (EP453) about carrier/TPA RFPs (requests for proposal) and all of the landmines that are really expensive, that are buried in some of these contracts. Then there was the Cynthia Fisher show (EP457) from last year about the millions, maybe billions of dollars in aggregate going missing in medical (ie, TPA or ASO [administrative services only]) spread pricing. We had “The Mystery of the Weekly Claims Wire” show with Justin Leader (EP433), again, revealing money that's being disappeared when the TPA is withdrawing dollars from plan sponsor checking accounts. And then there's the payment integrity episode with Kimberly Carleson (EP480) from a few weeks ago with just another wrinkle on this, namely TPAs or ASOs who insist on auditing themselves and how that turns out for members and plan sponsors. Oh, and last, but certainly not least, is the whistleblower show with Ann Lewandowski (EP476) on how a TPA arm of an EBC (employee benefit consultant) allegedly pocketed $20 million—$20 million of their client's pharma rebates—and used that $20 million to fund their executive bonus pool. What a time to be alive! All of this just highlights the huge stakes for plan sponsors to really understand what their TPA is all about. And when I say high stakes, I mean from both a legal standpoint and also just vast dollars in play here. But this episode with Elizabeth Mitchell is also, I'm gonna say, extremely relevant given just a few ripped from the headlines and news articles such as these. I'm gonna start actually with a post from Kimberly Carleson, and I like the comment by Jeff Evans, who wrote, “How does $8,710 equal $104,266?” Spoiler alert, it doesn't. Lots of missing dollars there. Someone's hands are in the cookie jar. Oh, look, the TPA has entered the chat. In a nutshell, and I'm quoting something Peter Hayes wrote, he wrote, “TPAs have received relatively little public attention. [There's an article in Health Affairs] that describes how TPAs impose hidden fees, benefit from their own form of spread pricing, and otherwise prioritize their own financial interests over those of their plan clients.” Also, here's a totally other issue. Let me quote Luke Prettol highlighting something Jason Shafrin had written about a paper by Jeff Marr, Daniel Polsky, and Mark Meiselbach. Let me slightly rephrase what Luke said. He wrote, “Employers pay, on average, a 4.7% [so almost 5%] price markup when hospitals are in their TPA's [Medicare Advantage] network.” Right? Dr. Eric Bricker talked about this in that episode (EP472) just how TPAs with MA (Medicare Advantage) business negotiate their commercial clients to pay higher rates so that then they can pay lower rates for their own MA members. As Luke wrote, “On its face, this overpayment does not appear to be solely in the interest of participants.” No kidding. Now, let's spin the wheel here. There are barriers for TPAs themselves, even the ones who have a deep desire to do the right thing. As Patrick Moore wrote, “Most TPAs still can't do [many of the things that employers might want because there are] PPO contracts.” So, is it a rock in a hard place situation? I mean, if the TPA has no other options than using a carrier's PPO (preferred provider organization) network with all its attendant contractual issues, then yeah, that is one definite challenge. Along these lines, let me read a post by Rina Tikia, because I think she sums up this really well. “When independent TPAs … push for transparency, they're blocked under the banner of ‘fiduciary risk.' “Meanwhile, the largest carriers and PBMs, with Cayman shell subsidiaries, DOJ kickback probes, [huge] hedge fund ties, [$10 million-plus] lobbying budgets, and antitrust violations continue unchecked. They are not only allowed to operate but celebrated as mainstream options. “Why the double standard? Political donations? Foundation smokescreens? Nonprofit status as a PR shield?” These are excellent questions. And here's another challenge: brokers. Ramesh Kumar Budhani wrote about this one, just how hard it is sometimes to find—for TPA, an independent TPA, trying to do the right thing—to find brokers who prioritize doing the right thing for employers and helping their clients save money. The summary of all of this: There are TPAs and there are ASOs who aren't even trying. They are going to ride the flywheel, the gravy train, and catch all of the dollars flying off of it for as long as they can manage to cling to it with all 10 of their fingers. Then there are TPAs, mostly indies, trying super hard to do the right thing. But how successful they are is going to depend on how boxed in they are by the PPO networks or the carriers that the brokers or even plan sponsors may insist on. Just how courageous they are and just how smart they are and experienced they are about the market and how it actually operates. So, the show that follows is about all of this, including how we can inspire TPAs, which, in the show that follows, subsumes ASOs kind of into it. But in the show that follows, I hope it's inspiring to create an environment so that the market demands TPAs that do all of the things, and we make inertia not a viable business strategy.

On a sunny afternoon at the Our Health campus, the energy is palpable as Janet Michael, host of “The Valley Today,” sits down with Sharen Gromling, Executive Director of Our Health. Their conversation, brimming with enthusiasm and insight, centers on a transformative new initiative: the Nonprofit Leadership Academy. This collaborative program, designed for both nonprofit staff and board members, aims to address the evolving challenges and opportunities facing the nonprofit sector. Sharen, herself a graduate of the Academy, shares the story behind its revival. “There's always a lot of turnover in nonprofit leadership, but the past five years have seen even more change,” she explains. Recognizing the need for comprehensive, accessible training, Our Health joined forces with organizations like Navy Federal Credit Union, United Way Northern Shenandoah Valley, the Top of Virginia Regional Chamber of Commerce, Valley Health, Shenandoah University, and the Community Foundation. Together, they've crafted a curriculum that covers the full spectrum of nonprofit management—from governance and strategic planning to financial stewardship and storytelling for fundraising. The Academy's structure is both rigorous and flexible. Five in-depth workshops, each four hours long, are paired with “digging deeper” lunch-and-learn sessions, allowing participants to absorb information, reflect, and return with questions. Topics range from building a strong organizational culture and understanding the nuances of board-staff relationships, to mastering the essentials of budgeting, audits, and compliance. “We want people to walk away feeling confident they can run their nonprofit for the future,” Sharen says. Janet, who completed the Academy as a board member, attests to its value. “It gave me the background and structure of how a nonprofit works and why it's important to be engaged,” she recalls. The program's inclusivity is a recurring theme—sessions are open to anyone interested, with scholarships available to ensure cost isn't a barrier. Participants can enroll in the full series or select individual sessions tailored to their roles and interests. Beyond the classroom, the Academy fosters a sense of community. “You build relationships with people who are in the same boat,” Janet notes. The networking and peer support that emerge from these sessions are as valuable as the formal instruction, creating a local ecosystem of shared knowledge and resources. The conversation also highlights Our Health's broader mission. More than just a property manager for local nonprofits, the organization provides volunteer recruitment, technical assistance, and a commitment to lifelong learning. Sharen's passion for service shines through as she describes initiatives like the community fridge, which supports food-insecure residents with dignity and respect. As the episode draws to a close, Janet and Sharen discuss upcoming events, including a unique fundraising watch party at historic Audley Farm. Their camaraderie and shared dedication to strengthening the nonprofit sector are evident, leaving listeners inspired to get involved, seek out training, and support the organizations that form the backbone of their community. In a world where the needs of nonprofits are ever-changing, the Nonprofit Leadership Academy stands out as a beacon of innovation, collaboration, and hope—empowering leaders to build a brighter, more resilient future for all.

Send us a textToday marks a milestone five years since we began this podcast journey together, amounting to 45 episodes, 1.7 million downloads, and nearly $47,000 raised for multiple charities. What's even more remarkable? We did the first three years of shows before ever meeting in person. That's the magic of Pearl Jam—creating connections that transcend physical distance.Music serves as a comfort blanket for many of us, particularly during challenging times. For Anthony, who left home at 16 and slept in his car, Pearl Jam represented a search for belonging when people continuously entered and exited his life. For Trey, hearing "Ten" as a 19-year-old college student prompted him to drop out and move to Seattle, completely altering his life trajectory and eventually leading to a winery named after one of his favorite songs.We share our most profound Pearl Jam memories—from Trey's experience at the legendary Drop in the Park show to Anthony's emotional journey photographing the band in Charlottesville after numerous rejections. That night, while photographing "Release" through tears, Anthony achieved a goal he'd thought impossible. These aren't just concert memories; they're life-defining moments.The podcast conversation explores how the band's activism fostered similar qualities in fans. Their emphasis on empathy and giving back inspired both hosts to become more involved with charitable causes. Perhaps most meaningful are the friendships formed through this community—people who became chosen family rather than just fellow fans.As we look toward the future, we remain grateful for how one band's authentic art transformed our lives in unexpected ways. And in true cosmic alignment, our fifth anniversary falls on the same day as the anniversaries of "Ten" (34 years) and "No Code" (31 years). Join us in celebrating not just music, but the enduring power of connection it creates.www.TheTouringFanLive.commedia@TheTouringFanLive.Comwww.facebook.com/TheTouringFanLiveInstagram-@TheTouringFanLiveCopyright The Touring Fan Live 2026

Here's what to expect on the podcast:What motivated Tricia to establish Attitudes In Reverse (AIR)How AIR is changing conversations around mental health and providing much-needed supportPrograms designed to encourage early awareness and help-seekingShauna and Lucy's moving stories of joining AIR's missionThe surprising comfort and healing that therapy dogs bringAnd so much more! About Tricia:Tricia Baker, along with her family, established Attitudes In Reverse® (AIR®) in 2010, soon after her son Kenny died by suicide following a long battle against severe depression and anxiety. Mental illness is like AIR. Just because you don't see it, doesn't mean it isn't there. It is all around us®. AIR's mission is to create a community of understanding, kindness and empathy through mental health and suicide prevention education.After a 20-year corporate career in marketing, Tricia took the tremendous loss of Kenny and recognized the need for educating youth about good mental health. Since January 2011, Tricia has developed programs and educated over 250,000 students, parents, school staff, and business partners in New Jersey and across the US.Dogs are an integral part of Tricia's work with AIR®, including K-12 mental wellness educational programs. Administrators say that the retention rate of the mental health material is far greater than other programs, as the students associate the materials with visiting the dogs.  As AIR Program Director, Tricia launched a program for K-4th graders, teaching young children to identify their emotions through discussions of dogs. Tricia has very recently published her first book; Miki & Friends Go to School: Exploring Emotions through the Eyes of Dogs based on this program.In addition to being a mental health advocate and educator, Tricia is a Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed (CPDT-KA), AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Instructor and a Certified AIR Therapy Dog Evaluator. Through the AIR Dogs: Paws for Minds program, Tricia has partnered with schools to train staff with their personal dogs to be school-based therapy dog teams. The goal - at least one certified therapy dogs on each school campus. To date, there are approximately 75 certified teams across New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Other Guests Who Are AIR Volunteers:Shauna L.

This week, Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Wendie Veloz. The two talk about how Wendie's journey as a macro-level social worker and advocate, shaped by her years in federal and local government, inspired her to create a company focused on sustainable, scalable solutions that align business with community values.  In this episode, we discuss: How Wendie transitioned from a government career to starting her own business What kinds of clients and projects Wendie support When Wendie  realized it was time to work for herself and focus on impactful work she cared about Why social impact is central to Wendie's work The importance of community and ongoing learning Wendie Veloz is a social impact strategist, coach, and facilitator dedicated to helping visionary leaders like you create meaningful change while staying aligned with your mission and energy. My journey into social impact started from a deep passion for creating equitable, sustainable (and scalable) solutions for communities. With over 20 years of experience as a macro-level social worker, advocate, project manager, and strategist, I've seen firsthand the struggles leaders face trying to balance their mission with the realities of funding, leadership, and organizational growth. After years of serving as a funder and leader in the federal and local government, I found myself burnt out and at a crossroads. I realized that after the pandemic there are a lot of leaders that have found themselves at a point in their career where impact is the top priority and want to make change in their own way. I work with social entrepreneurs, nonprofit professionals, and business leaders to build sustainable, purpose-driven organizations through: ✅ The Social Impact Level Up Collective: A dynamic community for connection, collaboration, and leadership growth. ✅ Idea Surgery Sessions: Strategy-focused workshops that help leaders clarify priorities, solve challenges, and craft innovative solutions. ✅ Elevate Her Worth Events: Transformative experiences designed to empower women entrepreneurs to lead authentically and build resilient businesses. ✅ Executive Coaching: Personalized coaching for nonprofit and business leaders to amplify their leadership capabilities, foster team collaboration, and drive organizational success. ✅ Speaking & Facilitation: Engaging talks and workshops on purpose-driven entrepreneurship, energy alignment, and transformational leadership. I created Wendie Veloz Enterprises, LLC (WVE) because I believe that every changemaker deserves the support, tools, and alignment to thrive—not just survive. https://www.linkedin.com/in/wendieveloz/ https://wendieveloz.com/
