So I am Brandy Giroux. I serve on eight boards. We don't have time for all of them. But one of my biggest takeaways is I'm on the board of North Raleigh Ministries. And I always thought that Goodwill had a bad name because of the overhead. And I use that against them multiple times feeling Board of Normal Ministries. But now I realize maybe they were inventive and their methods and their 20 ministries need to up their upper head to keep up. So that was my biggest take away. I have a number. I'm the director of Triangle Artwork, so I'm a staff person. There's someone who runs a new organization. My gut reaction was was about how sort of the way that grants work and funding works doesn't support innovation. So we were in new organization. Now looking at all new innovation, it is hard to get started because a lot of grants want a lot of grants and funds won't talk to if you don't have $100,000 budget. So how did how does that how does that you know that way of working things support innovative new ideas for solving problems. So that's what. I am hardening the heart and the chief learning officer at Marbles Kids Museum loved the movie. I thought it was really wonderful how it pointed out that it really does take an investment to do good work. And I think the three challenges in particular that really resonated with me are when funders don't want to fund staff because staff is our number one expense. It takes people to do the work that we do. And so we really need for funders to invest in the people that it takes to do. Work two other experiences that we have had our funders who want to fund new things but aren't interested in funding ongoing things that have already proven to be successful. So investing in things that organizations that are doing and may have been doing for a long time that are already really working. And then finally some sometimes funding wants you to tie your work to evidence based practices. And so when the movie really talked about it. Innovation and risk having to do things that are already evidence based and have prior histories of being successful only really prevents organizations, I think, from taking risks and trying new things and finding that next evidence based practice. OK, hi, I'm Dave Klemp. I am the executive director for trees for the triangle with just viewed the uncharitable documentary has changed my thinking in some ways on how we can approach specifically advertising and marketing, which to date we have done almost none of for all the reasons that they listed not not to feel like we were, you know, quote UN quote throwing money away when in fact. Maybe that's an investment that we should be making in our future to grow the the pool of resources that we can draw from to do the work so that the work keeps getting done and the impact only grows larger and larger.

A couple of weeks ago, I shared some lessons I've learned from talking to women about their relationship with money in our Honest Story shoots here at Propelle. Some weeks have past and I've conveniently forgotten to post mine.. 🙈 Having asked so many women to come forward and share their stories, why am I not the first one to post about mine? Well the truth is, it feels very vulnerable. In 2023, it still feels hard to speak about money. It's something we've been told to keep to ourselves and not share with even our closest friends and families. 🙊 But I think this is wrong. I even think this plays a bigger part than we think in the financial gap between men and women. Women talking about money is the first step to breaking down financial barriers and access a wealth of information in the form of other women's experiences. 👭 So here we go, I still feel very vulnerable doing it, but here is my Honest Story about money: https://lnkd.in/epxruZXd Who's up to come and tell theirs next? 💪 And by the way, you should check out how good they look embedded in the Propelle platform! More on that next week ;)
