Strong missions need strong financial foundations. In this episode of Nonprofit Nerd®: Impact Unleashed, host Jarrett Ransom sits down with nonprofit CPA and advisor Lisa Stevenson for a candid, practical conversation about the financial realities nonprofit leaders face every day. Together, they unpack common financial pitfalls, why nonprofit-specific accounting expertise truly matters, and how clear, accurate financial reporting supports long-term sustainability.

Lisa shares insights on board education, fiduciary responsibility, and how financial data, when understood and communicated well, becomes a powerful leadership and trust-building tool. This episode reframes finances as more than compliance or spreadsheets; they are a strategic asset that helps nonprofits make confident decisions and deepen their impact.
