Kicked off the week with a LIVE segment on | ! 🎤📺✨

Here’s the fun part…I had no idea who was going on before me. The guest? A wonderful financial advisor () sharing tips on how to be smart with your $$ this summer. ☀️

So, I leaned in on the fly and connected our segments:

➡️ Want to give back without breaking your budget? Monthly giving is the move. Small, consistent donations = big, ongoing impact.

This is the kind of real-time moment that reminds me:
📣 Always be ready to share your message.
📣 Make it relevant.
📣 Keep your storytelling tight.
📣 And please, highlight your WINS. People want to join something that’s working.

So if you’re a nonprofit leader, here’s your summer reminder:

Don’t just tell stories of need. Celebrate what’s working. Share the momentum. Invite people into the GOOD you’re already doing.

Thank you and for being the best hosts!!

And for making at all happen! 👏

Swipe to relive the saga 🎤🎧💃

✔️ Spoke on stage
✔️ Mic’d up for a podcast
✔️ Brainstormed big moves with brilliant nonprofits
✔️ Told the subscription economy: monthly giving is HERE
✔️ Casually spent the night vibing with + (nbd)

Partnerships were forged. Missions were amplified. And yes, the dance floor saw some action. 💫

At Gate A21, something cool happened.

As we waited to board, the gate agent greeted every single person by name and SkyMiles status.

“Welcome aboard, Ms. Thompson. Diamond Medallion. Thank you for flying with us.”

It was so fun to watch all the expressions and interactions.

Then I get to my seat, 14C, and the screen says: “Welcome 14C.”

And I’m prompted to log into my account for personalized preferences.

Small things.
Simple touches.
And yet, incredibly meaningful.

It didn’t matter that we were delayed.
Kindness, thoughtfulness, and intentionality made the experience feel…welcoming.

And it got me thinking -

This is what monthly giving should feel like.

It’s about thoughtful personalization.
Making someone feel seen.
Valued.
Known.

So the next time you’re thinking about retention, think less “grand gesture,” more “quiet wow.”

Now off to to learn ALL about what’s going on in the subscription economy and see some of my favorite people!

While you’re soaking in this long weekend - whether you’re poolside, on a patio, or catching your breath from the spring sprint, imagine…

What if you took that same kind of pause to pour into your monthly giving program?

You don’t need more chaos. You need more clarity.
You don’t need more one-time donors. You need sustainable, predictable revenue you can count on, month after month.

That’s exactly what we’re creating at the Monthly Giving Retreat in Atlanta on August 21–22!! ✨

• The VIP spots? Already sold out.
• Just 6 standard tickets remain.

But this isn’t your average retreat.

Before we ever meet in person, we’ll hop on a pre-event connection call to talk through your specific goals and challenges, so I can customize the full itinerary to meet you right where you’re at.

No cookie-cutter content.

No wasted time.

Just two days of focused work, real strategy, and total support to help you scale your monthly giving program with confidence.

You’ll leave with:
• What YOU need
• And new connections with women leaders who truly get it

If you’ve been craving stability in your revenue and simplicity in your systems - this retreat is for you.

Comment or DM me “RETREAT” and I’ll send you more info!

Let’s build your recurring revenue strategy on purpose.

‘We don’t have time to focus on monthly giving.’ If you’ve ever said that…you’re not alone. But that mindset is costing you long-term revenue and deeper donor relationships.

Monthly donors are literally your most loyal, consistent supporters.

Swipe through for some truth bombs- and maybe a little kick in the pants to finally give your program the attention it deserves.

And here’s the good news: You don’t have to do it alone.

Applications are now open for the Monthly Giving Mastermind kicking off this summer!
In this small group program, our team will work with you to build and launch a recurring giving program that’s live and thriving before the giving season begins.

No more waiting. No more guessing. Just strategy, support, and a recurring revenue stream that runs like clockwork.

Apply now and let’s make monthly giving your most sustainable stream of income this year.

Buried in spreadsheets, follow-ups, and thank you notes?

What if the most thoughtful parts of your donor experience could be automated - without losing the personal magic?

This week on Missions to Movements, I sat down with one of the smartest, most heart-centered humans I know: !

She’s the ✨automations queen✨ behind the scenes of the Monthly Giving Summit - and the reason I’ve been able to handle 6,800+ registrations without losing my mind.

From handwritten cards to custom emails and multi-platform workflows, Rachel makes the complex feel simple and helps you reclaim your time to focus on what can’t be automated.

Here’s what we dive into:

1. How to identify what to automate in your nonprofit
2. Real-life automations that saved us HOURS
3. Why automation + personalization are better together
4. Rachel’s “One Minute Thank You” system (it’s genius)

If you’ve ever thought “there’s got to be a better way”… you’re right.

And Rachel’s your person.

Listen now to Missions to Movements Ep 179
On Apple & Spotify.

And if you’ve ever worked with Rachel, show her some love in the comments. She’s the real deal.

Two years ago today, I was handed the most important title of my life: Mom.

Today, my daughter turned two!

730 days of the deepest belly laughs, the best snuggles, lotssss of Anna & Elsa, and seeing the world through the wild, wonderful eyes of a tiny human who thinks I’m the coolest person on the planet (for now).

Watching Kennedy grow has reshaped how I show up in all areas of my life.

She reminds me daily to:

📍Stay present
📍Find magic in the small stuff
📍And keep getting back up, no matter how many times you fall

When she was a baby, I made a choice I feel incredibly grateful for:

To set boundaries.

To move meetings around when I was nap trapped (or didn’t happen at all).

And to be fully present—for those first smiles, first steps, and the chaos in between.

This community—my clients, collaborators, and fellow entrepreneurs—you understood. You got it. You gave me grace, flexibility, and support. And I’ll never forget that.

I do this work for her.

To show her what’s possible.
To build something meaningful.

To lead with joy, values, and the occasional snack cup in hand. 😉

Here’s to raising good humans, while continuing to grow as one myself.

Happy 2nd birthday, my sweet Kennedy Rae.
