In this episode of The Responsive Lab podcast, Carly Berna and Stephen Boudreau are joined by executive coach, fundraising consultant, and host of the podcast What the Fundraising, Mallory Erickson, for an exciting conversation about the evolution of fundraising – plus, a sneak peak of Mallory’s new book, What The Fundraising?

Mallory begins by discussing the common obstacles faced by fundraisers today, and how to overcome them using strategies that Mallory explains in detail in her book.

Later, they’ll talk about the importance of mindset in fundraising and how adopting a positive and resilient mindset can lead to ultimate success – both professionally and personally.

Also along the way, Carly, Stephen and Mallory will talk about:

- Adopting the “courage over confidence” mindset

- Building aligned donor relationships

- Innovative fundraising techniques and how to implement them

- The importance of self-care and mental health for fundraisers
