Nonprofit Lowdown

#271 - My First $1M Gift with Dr. Emerald Mitchell


Listen Later

Does chasing big donor bucks leave you feeling shook? Here’s a little secret to flip the switch on our inner dialogue so you can start bringing in major gifts: When you fix your mindset, you fix your money probs. 


But don’t take my word for it! I’m all about a case study too. 


Once upon a nonprofit, Emerald felt like an imposter around donors. But together we unpacked limiting money stories and reframed fundraising as an adventure, not a burden. Soon after, she received her first record $2.5 million donation for her nonprofit, Moves and Grooves, inc., and her budget has been growing strong and steady ever since.


Tune in as Emerald shares her journey as a woman of color from scarcity to confidently leading with inspiration. You'll hear how one bold conversation and the power of authentic connection sparked her inner transformation and opened the floodgates of support. 


The moral? All we need to unlock our inner fundraising rockstar is inner permission plus a solid plan. 💥 So if pesky money blocks feel like obstacles, let's shatter them! Abundance awaits, friends. Now…click play! 🎧
