Posted @withregram • @yournonprofitlife I’m about to introduce you to a woman who is proof positive that the mission her organization passionately pursues on a daily basis works amazingly well.⁣ ⁣ My guest, DeLashea Strawder, is the Executive Director and Artistic Director of the Mosaic Youth Theatre of Detroit—a creative youth development organization. In other words, Mosaic is a nonprofit organization which helps to unleash and explore the creative talents of young people all while developing leadership skills which will serve them the rest of their lives.⁣ ⁣ DeLashea first learned about the organization in middle school, and after much prodding in high school by friends and teachers, she auditioned for and was accepted to Mosaic Youth Theatre of Detroit and participated until she graduated. And though she never planned to return to Mosaic after graduation and heading off to college, the universe had other plans.⁣ ⁣ I really appreciated DeLashea’s vulnerability as she shared about the intersectionality of being a young, black, woman running an established nonprofit in Detroit and the courage she has every day to lift up other people and make sure that the conversations that need to be had are had.⁣ ⁣ You’re gonna love this interview with wife and mother of four, DeLashea Strawder, the Executive and Artistic Director of Mosaic Youth Theatre of Detroit.⁣ ⁣ 🎧 Listen online or subscribe on iTunes, Spotify, Google Podcasts, etc. Link in bio. ⁣OR...

Posted @withregram • @yournonprofitlife Sometimes, even in the middle of a global pandemic, you need to take a few minutes to celebrate. 🎉🎈💰💪 . Tonight, I celebrated with some nonprofit leaders who just finished a fundraising/elevator pitch boot camp they started BEFORE the pandemic was declared. . I'm honored to work with such strong and dedicated people. They have worked hard to cultivate hope for a better future, and they will make it happen. . . . #nonprofitleadership #elevatorpitch #bootcampisover #yournonprofitlife #celebration #focusonthegood https://www.instagram.com/p/B-oEa46p7yo/?igshid=1wxwvpvp6ab17

Posted @withregram • @yournonprofitlife #Henry Burrell is the founder of the Jonesboro Business Association. Originally from New York, Henry relocated to Louisiana and now resides in Jonesboro, Arkansas—and we’ll talk a little bit about the difference between life in Queens as opposed to life in the South.⁣ ⁣ Here’s what you need to know about Henry. First and foremost, he is a successful businessman. He has been in the hospitality industry for decades developing leaders and pouring his life into his community. After moving to Jonesboro, he recognized a gap in the local business sector and began brainstorming how to fill it in such a way that the community would be stronger AND locally owned businesses would collaborate for a bigger impact — especially with the students in Jonesboro.⁣ ⁣ And isn’t that the way it happens with nonprofit Founders? They see a gap or a need, envision a way to address it while changing lives, and then they rally other leaders to join them for greater impact?! You should be nodding your head up and down right now, because that’s exactly how nonprofits get started.⁣ ⁣ 🎧 Listen online or subscribe on iTunes, Spotify, Google Podcasts, etc. Link in bio. ⁣OR...

I had the privilege and honor of interviewing a phenomenal woman for International Women’s Day! Posted @withregram • @yournonprofitlife Today is International Women’s Day — March 8, 2021⁣ ⁣ Today's episode features an interview with a woman who, like the me, is someone with a strong faith and a desire to see more women in leadership roles—both secular and religious. My guest and I have had similar journeys fighting misogyny and patriarchy in our different religious traditions.⁣ ⁣ Fatima Sadaf Saied is the co-founder and Executive Director of the Muslim Women’s Organization in Orlando, Florida. She’s a wife, a mother, and a fierce advocate for the women in her community, but especially those in her faith community.⁣ ⁣ In this interview, Fatima shares how her parents immigrated to the United States from Pakistan and worked to establish a mosque for Asian Muslims who had also immigrated to the same area. We talk about everything from growing up in the nonprofit world and attending the University of Miami to getting married and being a full-time mom, and from that to starting an organization to empower Muslim women with service opportunities as well as trauma-informed training.⁣ ⁣ We talk about why some Muslim women wear a hijab, why she does, and how wearing the hijab changed her life. We also delve into what it takes to make real, tangible change in a system steeped in patriarchy, and I have to say, her approach is genius!⁣ ⁣ Fatima is the real deal. A strong woman of faith who works hard every day to elevate the voices of women in spaces where they are often silenced.⁣ ⁣ 🎧 Listen online or subscribe on iTunes, Spotify, Google Podcasts, etc. Link in bio. ⁣OR...

I learned a lot! . Posted @withregram • @yournonprofitlife . 🦃🥧 In honor of the Thanksgiving holiday here in the United States, I wanted to interview someone whose people lived here before the country was “discovered.” Someone whose people have creation traditions based on this continent. Someone who works day in and day out to preserve her own culture. Despite colonization.⁣ .⁣ The 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝗠𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗔𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲 lives in the central southeast of Arizona on the Fort Apache Indian Reservation. In this episode, you will meet a member of the White Mountain Apache Tribe who grew up on the reservation and now serves as the Executive Director of the Fort Apache Heritage Foundation. Her name is Krista Beazley.⁣ .⁣ In this episode, you’ll hear how Krista went from being a 🐺 wolf biologist and ecotourism guide for the Tribe to being an Executive Director with a small staff, overseeing the restoration of 20+ buildings, and wearing a bunch of different hats at the Foundation.⁣ .⁣ In addition to hearing about Krista’s journey into nonprofit leadership and the work her organization is doing to preserve White Mountain Apache culture, you’re also going to learn a little more about American history when we discuss the boys’ and girls’ dorms and the culture when Krista shares the traditional foods served at a White Mountain Apache Thanksgiving dinner including things like acorn stew and tennis racquet bread.⁣ .⁣ I can’t wait for you to meet Krista Beazley, the Executive Director of the Fort Apache Heritage Foundation in Arizona.⁣ .⁣ Listen online or on your favorite podcatcher (Link in bio)⁣ .⁣ OR⁣ .⁣ Say, "Alexa, play the latest episode of the Your Nonprofit Life podcast!" Yep, that works, too!⁣ . https://www.instagram.com/p/CID1bKOJ_0y/?igshid=tx3fsdmbqb9p
