    What's In a Name? Part Two

    On day 1656, it’s part two of “What’s in a name?” We dig into the “Generous” in Generous Change. It’s amazing how many things one little word can mean. For us, generosity lies in time, attention and opinion. What does “generous” mean to you? When do you feel most generous? When have other people been generous to you? For bonus points, what’s the opposite of generosity for you?

    What's In a Name? Part One

    More than 1627 days ago, we chose to name our business (and our podcast!) Generous Change. Coming up with a name was crazy hard! So, we're reflecting on its meaning, how much Generous Change represents not only our business, but who we are and who we want to be for the amazing people we serve. In this episode, we're tackling the "Change" in Generous Change. Turns out, there's a whole lot in a name!

    Leadership Is...

    Leaders eat last. Lead from every seat. Leaders are made not born. When it comes to leadership, you can find plenty of corporate jargon and coffee mug slogans. What we forget is a leader is someone people follow - for good or for bad. On day 1607 of entrepreneurship, we're digging into what leadership really means to us and the kind of leadership we hope for you (hint...the good kind).

    Why We Closed For a Month

    We closed for one whole month?! If you’ve ever dreamed of a little sabbatical or at least more than the standard 2-weeks of vacation per year, we’re right there with you! In our high hopes to prioritize vacation, we’re exploring how closing the business for 30 days worked…and didn’t. On day 1415 of entrepreneurship, we’re still learning big lessons about how we work, how we play and what balance really looks like.

    Focus

    On day 1275 of entrepreneurship, we're at the very edge of launching our brand new major gifts course for small nonprofits called Raise Money. Check it out and register here! Warning: there's a bit of rambling in the first 8 minutes of this long-delayed podcast because we just needed a dang break! After brainstorming, writing, rewriting, filming and full-on creating a new, wildly comprehensive course, we're analyzing the value of FOCUS - where & when & what to focus on, how & why to set boundaries if you really want to accomplish something big and how to avoid the pitfalls of multitasking.
