Mallory Erickson’s new book “What The Fundraising” is out TODAY, and I can’t wait to share her wisdom around “alignment fundraising” – specifically why prioritizing alignment over your monetary goals is transformative.

Mallory has done extensive research into the psychological and physiological responses of fundraisers, and you’re going to walk away with so many actionable steps for a holistic strategy that benefits both you and your supporters.

We discuss the crucial role of internal alignment and self-compassion in forming and maintaining successful partnerships, plus the magic and science of serendipity.

Discomfort is a big theme in our conversation. And it can stem from so many places - toxic environments, unfamiliar situations – even the tension between short-term relief and long-term alignment.

But what if discomfort could serve as a catalyst for your personal and professional growth? This episode will leave you with practical strategies for managing the uncertainty.

Be sure to pick up Mallory’s new book, What The Fundraising, and grab a copy for a friend, too!
