Key Takeaways:True leadership often means loosening your grip. You cannot force outcomes, timelines, or people, but you can release and lead with trust. Surrender opens space for wisdom and growth.Surrender is not weakness but strength in disguise. Rest becomes a strategic act when we allow it to restore us. In slowing down, we sharpen clarity and courage.Perfection and rigid plans weigh leaders down. Balance is found in the natural rhythm of effort and rest. Honoring both flow and pause leads to sustainable impact.Leadership is not a solo journey but a shared one. Trusting your team and support network empowers them to rise higher. In giving space, you multiply strength together. “Surrender isn't weakness. It's wisdom. Choosing rest is a strategic decision.” “Let go of perfection and timelines. Whatever you missed happened anyway. It's all okay, nothing's going to pass you by.” “Balance comes from rhythm, not rigidity. Leadership is expansion and contraction. Go with the flow… honoring the rest as much as the pushes, honoring the ebb and the flow.” - Maryanne Dersch Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

Palau, an independent island nation in the western Pacific Ocean, consists of more than 300 islands in Micronesia. It's a popular destination for divers and ecotourists and visitors are required to take the "Palau Pledge" to protect its ecosystems. But Palau is already facing the immediate reality of climate change, with rising sea levels, coral bleaching, extreme weather events, and biodiversity loss. Surangel Whipps Junior, the President of Palau, has spoken at the United Nations General Assembly in New York, and wants to see the COP31 global climate conference held in the Pacific region rather than in Turkiye, because this is where climate change is already having devastating impacts. He's been talking to SBS Senior International Correspondent Ben Lewis, and told him that Palau and Australia are family - and the two countries need to work together.

A Canadian direct response strategist, designer, and author with over 25 years of experience. He champions donor-centered approaches that prioritize authenticity and emotional connection. His 2022 book, Creative Deviations, has inspired fundraisers worldwide to embrace creativity in storytelling and communication. John brings warmth, insight, and a human-first philosophy to every stage. Empowering fundraisers to build more meaningful donor relationships. Key Takeaways:Donor relationships thrive when leaders allow open, honest dialogue rooted in empathy. Vulnerability invites trust, making it easier for supporters to share openly and feel truly heard.Engagement comes not from polished presentations but from being human. Dropping the “professional bubble wrap” allows values-driven conversations that foster deeper bonds.Direct mail and appeals work best when they feel one-to-one, conversational, and emotionally compelling. Donors respond when a message feels like it was written just for them.Great fundraising relies on trusting experienced people and never losing vulnerability. Staying passionate and authentic ensures both donors and leaders stay connected to the deeper “why.” “We're being emotional. We're connecting with each other as humans. That's how we create engagement with donors. … Not by me showing up a suit and tie and in a big desk with gold stuff around me.” “The more mail looks personal and looks like I sent it to you, the better it performs all the time…” “We want donors feeling something. It's the emotions that make us take action. And it can be joy, it can be anger, it can be sadness, whatever it is.” - John Lepp Reach out to John Lepp at:LinkedIn: https://ca.linkedin.com/in/johnleppInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/johnlepp_aog/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AgentsofGood/Twitter: https://twitter.com/agentsofgood Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

Key Takeaways:Go through a seamless process with the donor; don't go from unaware to action. Create a replicable, consistent donor experience through these stages of relationship building: awareness, interest, connection, and action.Build relationships with donors through direct communication, creating content that provides value to others, rather than simply bragging about one's own accomplishments. Identify your areas of expertise and share them with others in a way that is informative, entertaining, or emotionally resonant.Personalized invitations create deeper connections with potential donors, and so does creating trust through smooth processes and acting in donors' best interests. Be a value to others in every interaction.Set up nurture sequences before and after events in order to engage attendees. Connect with the attendees and understand their needs, and build relationships with them by reaching out and listening to their values and interests. Don't neglect follow-up. “A lot of times, what I see is people go from unaware to action. We have to create an experience. It's like courting or dating, where you're enrolling someone slowly. And you're allowing them to move through this experience at their own pace.” “They have to know you to like you, like you to love you, or trust you enough to give, to act.” “What gets smiles on screens and souls on seats is a personal invitation.” - Maryanne Dersch Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

Matt Nash is the executive director of The Blackbaud Giving Fund, leading the organization's mission to unleash generosity by connecting people to causes they care about worldwide. An experienced executive with a focus on customer relationships and an expert in donor-advised funds and philanthropy, Matt previously served as the executive director of the Generosity Commission Working Group. Key Takeaways:The upcoming Individual Contribution Deduction (starting 2026) allows $1,000–$2,000 deductions even without itemizing. This is a game-changer for mid-level donors and nonprofits. High net worth donors, meanwhile, are expected to give more this year before new caps take effect.Building trust requires proactive communication—help donors understand new deductions, be transparent about challenges, and highlight impact. Clear stewardship can inspire donors to give more, not less, during times of change.Companies are becoming more selective, prioritizing alignment with their values. Nonprofits that provide high-quality volunteer opportunities and keep corporate giving platform profiles updated will stand out. Mid-size and local companies, often overlooked, are especially valuable.Tracking foundation, government, and donor-advised fund trends helps nonprofits anticipate risks and opportunities. Using available data to identify potential DAF holders and maintain strong funder relationships ensures resilience. “The key is stewardship of these donors, and helping them know this deduction is available, allowing them to amplify their giving.” “If you have big funders, watch how they're using their resources; it might be a negative cause to you moving forward.” “If you are working with a corporation, make sure your volunteer effort works great, it creates an aura among employees: ‘What a fantastic organization.” - Matt Nash Reach out to Matt Nash at:Website: https://blackbaudgivingfund.org/Blog: https://blackbaudgivingfund.org/blog/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BlackbaudGivingFund/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/blackbaudgivingfund/LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/the-blackbaud-giving-fund Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

As we continue to reinforce the assurance of the security of our salvation in Christ, I remind you that this assurance and all the promises of this chapter are not presented in a vacuum. They are not abstract. They are not confined to an elite status of super-Christians. They are not merely doctrinal nuances for spiritual nerds. Assurance is declared to us as we battle the flesh. As we deal with a sinful Christ-hating world system. As we deal with the constant decaying of the outer man. As we deal with crushing disappointments. As we are humiliated by our own sins. 1 - While We're On The Subject (26a) 2 - We Do Not Know (26-27) 3 - We Know (28)

The relationship between wedding planners and church coordinators has long been marked by tension, misunderstandings, and at times, outright conflict. But what if there's a better way forward?In this episode, Emma Cockerham, Certified Educator and Master Certified Wedding Planner, joins Krisy Thomas, COO of The CWP Society, for a candid conversation on transforming these often-strained relationships into true partnerships.Emma shares her personal journey through church wedding burnout in 2019, when a series of difficult experiences left her both professionally and spiritually discouraged. Instead of walking away, she leaned into education and a new approach, proving that change is possible. Together, Krisy and Emma unpack the persistent myths that fuel conflict: the idea that planners are inherently disrespectful, that church coordinators dismiss the bigger picture, and that media teams are encouraged to ignore rules.Through real-life stories and practical strategies, Emma highlights how humility, communication, and respect can reshape even the toughest dynamics. From navigating media restrictions to clarifying a planner's role within the ceremony, she offers actionable ways to foster collaboration. A particularly compelling story involves her persistence in building trust with a Catholic church coordinator, a relationship once fraught with conflict that became one of genuine respect.Emma discusses the importance of research and entering every church setting with reverence, regardless of personal religious background.Whether you've experienced church wedding challenges firsthand or want to avoid them altogether, this conversation gives you a framework for becoming a true peacemaker. As Emma reminds us, wedding planning is about bringing diverse vendors together to create something beautiful, and that begins with mutual respect.www.cwpsociety.com | info@cwpsociety.com | IG: @cwpsociety | FB: @cwpsociety
Some choices just don't need to take hours of your life. Dinner, outfits, where to put that picture frame…low-stakes decisions often feel heavy because of the state you're in and the pressure you put on yourself to get them “right.” This week, I'll show you the simplest 2-part formula to help you cut through the noise and move on: Notice your state (mental, physical, emotional). Decide what matters right now. (yes, I get that that's another decision, but we'll make it easy, I promise) We'll cover why these two steps are enough to speed things up, how to use them in everyday life, and the reminders that make it easier to trust your choices without overthinking.
Jen Recla is a leadership coach, facilitator, and adventure-seeker who helps leaders navigate their workload, build team trust, and lead with clarity, even when demands are high and resources are thin. With 15+ years in leadership, coaching, and organizational development, she brings a practical yet energizing approach to helping mission-driven leaders feel more capable and connected in their work. Key Takeaways:Community building strengthens both personal and professional life, creating resilience and collaboration that support growth.Sustainable achievement requires focusing on priorities, setting boundaries, and celebrating gains rather than chasing endless tasks.Feedback cultures thrive on psychological safety, with leaders modeling behaviors that shape healthy and sustainable team norms.Core values such as fun, adventure, and growth provide direction, energize leadership, and create authentic, purpose-driven work. “Some of the signs [of burnout] that I've seen with individuals really are dependent on who they are. So I think getting to know people, getting to know what makes them tick, what strengths they have, has been really helpful in my position as a leader in the past, and as a coach now as well.” “We focused on what the gains are… individually, for your team, for the organization - so that they could really see the progress and momentum that they've made. It's a way to pull people out of the downward spiral and really focus on the momentum and continuing to build that momentum.” “The starting place is really to take a step back, zoom out, and focus on what's important to you, what's your purpose, what's driving you? What are your values? What are your goals?” - Jen Recla Reach out to Jen Recla at:Website: www.jenrecla.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniferrecla Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

Key Takeaways:Effective change management begins with acknowledging and inventorying concerns rather than dismissing them.Benefits should be clearly articulated and emphasized in order to outweigh perceived risks.Aligning proposed benefits with shared organizational values strengthens collective buy-in.Identifying the tipping point, where benefits surpass concerns, creates momentum for meaningful change. “The first thing we do is acknowledge the fear. We inventory the concerns. We do not deflect, dismiss, deny.” “Stack the benefits, transform your positives, transform the positives, and to tip the sale.” “Identify the tipping point where the benefits clearly outweigh the concerns.” - Maryanne Dersch Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

It's about the six core commitments that actually move the needle.

Key Takeaways:Change unfolds in stages, and readiness cannot be forced. Recognizing that change follows a psychological process helps set realistic expectations. People move through stages at their own pace, and you cannot make yourself—or someone else—be ready before the time comes.Meet people where they are, not where you want them to be. Effective support means accepting others for who they are and approaching them with patience rather than trying to pull them ahead in their journey.Tailor your approach to each stage of change. Not everyone is in the same place, so it's essential to assess readiness and match your strategy accordingly. Small, incremental “micro-asks” can help move people forward.Setbacks are part of the process, and relationships drive lasting change. Relapse is normal and should be seen as a learning moment, not a failure. Real transformation grows out of relationships built on trust, not transactional interactions. “You will know when it's time. You can't make yourself be ready.” “Don't assume everyone is in the same stage. You have to assess first... and match your approach to their stage.” “Change is a relationship. It's not a transaction.” - Maryanne Dersch Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1. Group Coaching for Nonprofit LeadersWant to lead with more clarity, confidence, and influence?

In this uplifting episode of The Money Lighthouse Podcast for Spiritual Entrepreneurs, Michel Ai Reavis explores how the brain and the universe team up in the process of manifesting. She explains why manifesting is more than just “thinking positive,” and how the brain's Reticular Activating System (RAS) and the principle of neuroplasticity make it possible to filter reality and create new patterns that align with abundance.Listeners will learn why affirmations sometimes feel fake, how the brain's natural negativity bias can resist big leaps, and why gentle, believable affirmations are often more powerful for long-term change. Michel also shares how aligning the Law of Vibration with brain science creates a sweet spot where energy and neural wiring support one another.With practical tools like visualization with emotion, reframing affirmations for believability, and keeping an evidence journal, Michel shows how small daily shifts can rewire the brain and recalibrate energy. This episode offers listeners a fresh perspective on manifesting—one that blends science and soul for a grounded, empowering approach to co-creating their dreams.Contact: michel@moneylighthouse.com

Nicole Stewart is the Executive Director of Boston CASA, a nonprofit that trains and supports community volunteers to serve as Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs) for children who have suffered from abuse and neglect. She has over 25 years of experience supporting vulnerable children and advancing equity, education, and justice. Key Takeaways:Effective leadership begins with a clear sense of purpose, as understanding and communicating the “why” behind change builds trust, inspires alignment, and ensures the work stays centered on the mission.Establishing and living by shared guiding principles creates alignment in values and goals, making organizational change smoother and more unified.Bringing in outside facilitation during team change processes allows leaders to fully participate alongside their teams, while benefiting from an objective perspective that supports collaboration and engagement.Guiding principles should function as living documents that actively shape daily work, rather than being treated as one-time exercises or check boxes to complete. “Together, we created some guiding principles to ensure that there was alignment in our values and in our goals, which just makes leading an organization through this process a lot easier when you have, you know, those basic core values and you're working in sync.” “What I wanted to make sure is that once we came up with these guiding principles, that it became a living document.” “One of our guiding principles is that we create a culture of self-care so that we can perform at our very best.” - Nicole Stewart Reach out to Nicole Stewart at:Website: https://bostoncasa.org/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BostonCASAInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/boston.casa Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.
