What a great listen!
There’s so many facets of the nonprofit world and so many things to consider, especially as a small nonprofit! Jenni has not only given me personally some real advice, but also covered many topics that I just don’t have time to dig into. She’s a gem!
Great host!
Jenni asks great questions, thinks about what listeners will want to hear, and is super professional! I love listening and loved being a guest, too!
