Loved the episode with Roz Lee. Her clarity and warmth, and reminders about what it can mean to operate with, from and through a feminist lens.
Roz’s willingness to emphasize the power of language , and to be open about her path to now, was timely and a breath of fresh air.
Love this show! It’s great to see very influential people sharing their experiences and insights in such an accessible way. Important topics, taken seriously but in a fun way. A must for anyone in the philanthropy space.

It gives frank insight into what donors are really looking for but is an easy listen and pretty funny to boot. Highly recommend for anyone in fundraising or just interested in philanthropy in general!
