Nonprofit Nerd®: Impact Unleashed
The conversational-style podcast focuses on interviews and discussions with nonprofit thought leaders for all levels of nonprofit engagement and interests. Our shows are relevant for everyone from Board Members and CEOs to program and fundraising staff.
Our first 40 episodes, focused on wellness—how nonprofit leaders balance personal and professional commitments while navigating the demands of the sector.
Now, in Season 5 - 9, we’re taking it a step further.
The next four seasons, we’re diving deep into the critical challenges shaping nonprofit leadership today—workforce management, board governance, organizational resilience, and sustainable growth. With financial instability and a shifting political landscape affecting many mission-driven organizations, now is the time for bold, strategic leadership.
Join us for candid, actionable conversations with nonprofit change makers who aren’t just surviving but thriving. We’ll explore real-world strategies for effective governance, leadership transitions, and long-term sustainability.
If you’re a nonprofit leader looking for fresh ideas, honest discussions, and practical solutions, Nonprofit Nerd: Impact Unleashed is your go-to podcast. Let’s lead with resilience and impact—together.
We hope you enjoy!
