Resilience by design, not by demand.

Resilience shouldn’t mean asking people to absorb more. This 12-month partnership builds resilience into your structures, your roles, and your working conditions.

You could set your calendar to the crises.

Every non-profit leader I’ve worked with is jumping from one crisis to the next.

  • Rushing to get the annual report out.

  • Scrambling to spend down surprise slippage before the fiscal year closes.

  • Drafting layoff notices for funding that always comes through, but always at the last minute.

I’ve found that those crises are predictable. They’re not a sign you’re doing it wrong; they’re the sign of a system that wasn’t built with your work in mind.

A problem with a pattern is a problem you can build for. That’s what this partnership does.

Where is your organization at now?

Do you feel like you’re running your non-profit on caffeine and manifesting? Or have you figured out your secret sauce and you’re ready to share it with others? Take the quick assessment to see where your strengths and opportunities are right now.

(Imaginary) bonus points if you go through it at a team meeting and answer based on consensus.

What is a Nourished Non-Profit?

Have you ever felt like you’re playing a game of whack-a-mole? As soon as one crisis ends, another pops up. I’ve seen this often. The only way I’ve seen real change happen is by taking a slow, whole-organization approach.

This isn’t a quick fix. It’s a one-year cycle that engages the right people at the right time to build foundations that are made to last. We strengthen capacity as we go, so this isn’t something that’s done for you and falls apart once the partnership ends. The processes we co-design are baked in, so that even if your context or team change, you know what levers to adjust to right the ship.

Systemic Influence

Translate your impact into compelling data that clarifies funder alignment and enhances your authority to drive systemic change.

The Two-Week Test

Every member of your team should be able to step away for two weeks without worrying about what’s happening at the office. That includes you. It’s how we know the structure is holding rather than the people.

What it’s like IRL…

  • Understanding how your organization actually works, including the parts that look broken but are holding things together in important ways.

  • Shared language and low-burden routines, so your team can see, interpret, and act on progress.

  • Building clear roles and decision-making processes so that no one person holds it all.

  • Turning what you’ve built into a case that moves funders and partners to make real and lasting change.

How we’ll show up

This is a true partnership. You and your team will be an integral part of making the most of our time together. I work with your team’s capacity and use my expertise to do a lot of heavy lifting behind the scenes, but your input is essential to making sure the work sticks. Here’s what that means for all of us:

  • 90-minute monthly calls with your sponsor, usually the ED, CEO, or other senior leader with authority

  • 60-minute monthly team meetings to collaboratively develop tools and monitor progress, including representatives of the people who will actually use them

  • four half-day workshops for team members, with participants tailored to your organization

  • ad-hoc tool development meetings as needed

  • regular feedback on what’s working, what’s not, and why

What’s next?

Deciding to re-architect your organization is a big step. You might be wondering if your team is ready, or if you have the capacity to take this on right now. Here’s how we find out together.

  1. Take the self-assessment: Use this tool, individually or with your team, to see where your strengths and opportunities are right now. This gives us a starting point for our first conversation.

  2. Book a 20-minute chat: We use this to check our fit, so that we have clarity around roles and expectations. We’ll discuss your current organizational context and see if the Nourished Non-Profits framework aligns with your 12-month goals. No pressure if now isn’t the right time or if this isn’t the right opportunity.

  3. Leverage the case for support proposal: If we’re a fit, I’ll provide a detailed roadmap that highlights the business case for this investment. We’ll ensure the timing is right, so that we’re building your capacity and not just adding to your to-do list.
