Episode 31: Beyond Resilience

In today's episode we share a keynote we recently delivered to about 2,000 executives as part of the Responsive Nonprofit Summit, presented by our good friends over at Virtuous.

 

Virtuous gave us a remarkable amount of freedom in choosing our topic, and we jumped at the chance to talk about what we perceive to be a growing misuse of the word "resilience." In our view, it's in danger of being co-opted to mean "just deal with it." But resilience really means something far deeper and more profound.

We’ve all lived through a year that has challenged us like never before. For nonprofit professionals, 2020 tipped the scales on a sector that already had trouble taking care of the wellbeing of its members. We all deserve — and need — more.

 

Tune in as we explore moving beyond the myth of the professional life and personal life to surrender into a new definition of wellbeing grounded in the innate health we all share.
