Notas del episodio

I'm starting a new interim executive director role, and in this episode I share the news and the full-circle moment it represents. My entry point into nonprofit work was nearly three decades ago as a hotline and shelter volunteer at the Center Against Rape and Domestic Violence in Corvallis, Oregon. Now I'm stepping in to support the WomenShelter of Long Beach as they approach their 50th anniversary. I also share a poem called All In, woven from what folks at La La La Lunch said karaoke and leadership have in common, and I dig into one of my favorite questions: What do you mean by that? It's a powerful tool for seeking to understand, deepening someone's own clarity, and even responding to passive-aggressive jokes. Plus a plug for the documentary American Agitators. A heads-up that I touch lightly on themes related to sexual violence and domestic violence in this episode, though I don't go into depth.
