But over time, I started asking different questions—like what would it look like to build a life where work didn't come at the expense of family, faith, or freedom?This episode is a little different, as I'm the one being interviewed.

How one passive income deal replaced my wife's income—and how that one move kickstarted our journey to financial freedom.2.)

In this episode of Purpose & Profit Podcast, your co-hosts, Carly Berna and Dave Raley, talk about the power of invented holidays and the concept of shared moments that rally people together around a common cause or idea. How do these shared moments across these various invented holidays relate to the for-profit and nonprofit sector and why might it be important to recognize as professionals in the industry? Is there an untapped opportunity there? That's what Carly and Dave are looking to uncover in this episode. They begin by defining what invented holidays are - May the 4th, Talk Like a Pirate Day, No Phone Day, etc. - and dive into brand-specific holidays such as Amazon Prime Day and GivingTuesday, listing the various aspects that make them such a success culturally, as well as from an economic standpoint.  They talk about how creating shared moments around the theme of an invented holiday can help unify communities, capitalize on FOMO, and ultimately drive sales and giving among businesses and nonprofits.  Later, they'll share practical tips on how you can incorporate invented holidays into your organization. Steps on how to do this include:  Mapping out the calendar to see what holidays might be relevant for your organization When to start the ‘celebration' process of the holidays' shared moments, and how long to continue that celebratory process What it might look like to create your own brand-specific holiday based on your specific audience For more information on invented holidays such as GivingTuesday, visit: https://www.imago.consulting/articles/the-power-of-invented-holidays  Season Five of the Purpose & Profit Podcast is brought to you by: VIRTUOUS Virtuous is a software company committed to helping nonprofits grow generosity.

In this episode of Purpose and Profit Podcast, your co-hosts Dave Raley and Carly Berna are joined by Leah Kral, a consultant, public speaker, and author of the book, Innovation for Social Change: How Wildly Successful Nonprofits Inspire and Deliver Results. Beginning with the concept of “Nonprofit Innovation,” Leah dives into what innovation can look like for nonprofits, how it isn't just a for-profit tactic for success, and how innovation comes in all shapes and sizes – from major social changes that affect entire people groups, to smaller, systematic changes that streamline inter-organizational processes.  Leah moves on to talk about how innovation, as a concept, can seem promising, and yet the application can often appear daunting to organizations who may not know where to start. This, Leah explains, is where the ‘how' of innovation comes in.  Offering for-profit examples that can be thoughtfully applied to the nonprofit sector, Leah presents some practical ways that organizations can break through the barriers that often lead to stagnated efforts at innovation and growth. Also along the way, you'll get to hear about: How speaking with your customers or audience can significantly help your organization move the innovation needle forward Creating a culture of psychological safety, i.e. that ‘safe space' to be able to share honest feedback and express new ideas Asking the right questions, using imagination, and employing experimentation that will help your organization adapt and grow Learn more about Leah Kral by visiting:  Leah's website Leah's email newsletter Leah's LinkedIn page Season Five of the Purpose & Profit Podcast is brought to you by: VIRTUOUS Virtuous is a software company committed to helping nonprofits grow generosity.
