Asking for Good: Fundraisers help you launch your Nonprofit Career
Dacia Moore, LPC, NBCC dives right into one of the biggest and all too common drawbacks of the nonprofit sector: BURNOUT. She draws from her training as a Licensed Professional Counselor, nonprofit executive search partner and personal experience with burnout to teach us how to manage our own emotional regulation and find long-term success in the nonprofit sector. Nurture a Championship Mindset. This isn't about winning a sports trophy. This is about resilience, optimism, and a burning desire to work with excellence. It sounds like, “I'm in this for the long haul, we're doing a good job and getting better everyday.” Acknowledge what needs to be improved and give the most energy to what works well. Avoid perfectionism, it will kill you. Sweeping your own doorstep, an idea she learned from Mother Theresa. Do what you can and what's in front of you. In a nonprofit leadership context this means not doing other people's job instead delegate and trust your staff. Then support the staff. Nonprofit leaders need to provide direction and vision and then move over to let staff execute.Remember that your piece, whatever it is matters. You matter and we can think about a tiny bolt to illustrate this. There was a bolt that got loose and an airplane door flew off midflight. Leaders need to focus on their part. Be the bolt, don't try to be the bolt, the plane, the FAA…And as you are working, remember that we all play to mixed reviews. In any group, you will have 40% with you, 40% not with you and 20% on the fence. Recognize the negativity bias, spend the bulk of your energy on those who are on the fence and those who are with you. As a job seeker, try to determine if the organization has healthy boundaries. Ask about the last person who was in this role, how long did they stay? What are the key traits of the next person who fills this role? How does the person that is interviewing you maintain healthy boundaries? Consider the interview process, was it designed to allow conversation or were you as a candidate just grilled by staff? Dacia leaves us with two big ideas: If Oprah and Michelle Obama can do it, so can you. Think of those who you admire. They're all human. If they can figure out how to achieve excellence and have balance, then you can too. Protect your mental and physical health; they are too important not to take care of them. The nonprofit sector needs leaders who can sustain their energy and keep coming back to do this challenging work.Resources: DaciaMoore.com From Stuck to Unstoppable: 5 Strategies for Getting Your Second WindABOUT THE GUEST:For eight years, Dacia L. Moore served as the Executive Director of a non-profit organization, driving its significant growth and success as a vibrant community resource. Her extensive background in fundraising, philanthropy, behavioral health, and non-profit management helped diversify the participants served and staff employed.Throughout her career, she has established a strong track record of enhancing organizational processes, motivating teams, and exceeding established targets. She now shares this expertise through workshops, keynotes, professional coaching, and counseling. She also contributes as a Senior Recruiter with Moran & Company, assisting non-profits in finding their next great leaders. As a Published Author, Radio Host, and Former Adjunct Professor, she helps organizations and leaders improve mental resilience.

" The best advice I can give to anyone is to just acknowledge that this is a huge transition. You're going through a big change, and you need to be patient with yourself. It's not gonna happen right away, and I think women in particular are very patient with everybody and everything else in their lives, but maybe not necessarily themselves." " I think it's important to acknowledge the loss before you can really embrace a new beginning." " I believe writing your life honors your life."

Laura Gaddis's journey to becoming a published author is a testament to perseverance and passion. While she always loved writing, she initially pursued a more "practical" career, earning a master's in clinical psychology and working in the field for 14 years. It was after a period of burnout that she decided to pivot back to her true calling, enrolling in an MFA program and reigniting her writing career. A crucial part of this journey was her personal blog, which she started in 2010. Laura believes blogging was instrumental in helping her develop her voice and the discipline of writing for an audience, setting the stage for her future work.The Story Behind Mosaic.Laura's debut memoir, Mosaic, is a powerful and heartfelt account of a five-year period of her life. The book chronicles her journey through immense grief and hope, including pregnancy loss and mental health struggles, ultimately leading to the birth of her daughter. Laura explains that she had to include all these elements to tell a complete story, which is why she named the book Mosaic, as it's a collection of different pieces that come together to form a whole. She discussed the challenging process of turning such personal experiences into a book, highlighting that while writing can be a form of processing trauma, it is not a substitute for therapy.A Life Dedicated to Community and Coaching.Beyond her own writing, Laura is deeply committed to nurturing other writers. She serves as a writing instructor at Miami University and runs a community writing program at the Oxford Community Arts Center. She also works as a writing coach, finding inspiration in her students and clients. Laura's advice to aspiring writers is simple but profound: "just keep going." She believes that true success in writing isn't about external metrics, but about achieving your own personal goals, like publishing a book or helping others with their stories.What's Next for Laura?The interview also provided a sneak peek into Laura's upcoming projects. She is currently working on a historical fiction novel, and she shared her insights on the differences between writing fiction and memoir.Engage and Support The Writing Community.The Writing Community Chat Show is now a registered non-profit, dedicated to supporting authors and sharing their stories.

On this episode, Paige chats with Jennifer Mullin - aka the “Occasional Creative”. Jennifer is a Madison, Wisconsin based mixed media artist, author, and art instructor whose whose love affair with the ballpoint pen has inspired artists all over the world.Jennifer shares how her creative practice shifted when limited time and space pushed her toward a sketchbook and a simple pen - an approachable medium she could explore anywhere, even from her couch. In 2016, her abstract ballpoint drawings went viral on Pinterest, leading to a flood of requests for tutorials and the birth of her popular “Jen & Ink” e-courses.This year, Jennifer added “author” to her list of titles with the release of her debut book, Me & My Ballpoint Pen. She takes us behind the scenes of what it's really like to publish a book - from working with a publisher to navigating the editing process, and opens up about the emotional journey of putting her work into print.Paige and Jennifer dive into a heartfelt conversation about mental health, how finding an approachable creative outlet became a lifeline, and the ways art has helped her focus, heal, and reconnect with herself. If you've ever wondered how to turn a personal creative practice into something that inspires and supports others or what it takes to bring a book idea to life - this episode is a must-listen!
In this candid conversation, Timothy Hayden shares the discipline, vision, and perseverance that carried him from prison life to holding his first published book.
