A Heartfelt Holiday Message of Gratitude for a Year of Stories and Impact.

I would love to hear your thoughts on this episode. Please send me a text...

As the year comes to a close, I’m pressing pause on our regular programming to reflect — and to say thank you.

In this brief holiday message, I share what this past year has revealed about the power of storytelling, the strength of our nonprofit community, and the quiet, human work that truly builds impact. The stories we’ve had the privilege to hear — and help be heard — remind me that community isn’t built by headlines, hashtags, or algorithms. It’s built by people. By commitment. By heart.

I also extend deep gratitude to our founding and sustaining partners — CAPTRUST, Western Health Advantage, CxORE Fractional Leadership, and our newest partner heading into 2026, Five Star Bank — whose support allows hundreds of nonprofits each year to share their mission with clarity and dignity.

You’ll also hear a little holiday fun — because even meaningful work should leave room for play.

From all of us at the Nonprofit Podcast Network, thank you for listening, supporting, sharing, and believing in the power of community storytelling.

Wishing you peace, warmth, rest, and renewed purpose this holiday season — and a hopeful year ahead.
