#175-Your Brain + Fundraising with Cindy Wagman




Nonprofit Lowdown show

Summary: <p>I've met my Canadian sister from another mister!  Expert fundraiser Cindy Wagman and I talk about brain science and how it trips us up in fundraising.  By unpacking the ways in which the brain works, we can unlock the power for good.  We talk about heuristics, how your fear keeps you from living your best life and why we're so messed up about money.  This is a good one for the reluctant fundraiser.</p> <p><br></p> <p>To connect with Cindy: https://www.thegoodpartnership.com/</p> <p>Some of the resources we mention:</p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Atomic-Habits-Proven-Build-Break/dp/0735211299">Atomic Habits</a> by James Clear</p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/RAISE-Reluctant-Fundraisers-Raising-Without-ebook/dp/B09JF7ZHYQ/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3GF0PSNW6H2WP&amp;keywords=raise+it&amp;qid=1646622665&amp;s=books&amp;sprefix=raise+it%2Cstripbooks%2C313&amp;sr=1-1">Raise it!</a> by Cindy Wagman</p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Soul-Money-Transforming-Your-Relationship/dp/0393353974/ref=sr_1_1?crid=25KBYE0NTV4O&amp;keywords=soul+of+money&amp;qid=1646622768&amp;s=books&amp;sprefix=soul+of+money%2Cstripbooks%2C171&amp;sr=1-1">Soul of Money</a> by Lynne Twist</p> <p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Generosity-Network-Transformational-Successful-Fund-Raising-ebook/dp/B00BRUQ84Y/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3F8FDOK4HPZDN&amp;keywords=generosity+network&amp;qid=1646622808&amp;s=books&amp;sprefix=generosity+%2Cstripbooks%2C300&amp;sr=1-1">Generosity Network</a> by Jennifer McCrea</p> <p><br></p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/nonprofitlowdown/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/nonprofitlowdown/support</a>
