another excellent episode. Yours is the best fundraising podcast, in my opinion, due to brevity, meaningful data, and practical information. Clear and concise. You don’t have to dig through a lot of words to find the treasure. It’s handed to you. Jena does a great job keeping the conversion on track, exploring what matters most, and she seems to exemplify the quality of person we hope fundraisers will aspire to be.
