When Leaders Rest, Organizations Heal with Brittney Frazier
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if the key to a stronger nonprofit isn't more funding, but better rest?
In this episode, we sit down with Brittney Frazier, a nonprofit leadership expert and program officer at Allegany Franciscan Ministries, to talk about why leader wellbeing is one of the most overlooked drivers of organizational health and community impact.
Brittney shares how she helped design and launch a sabbatical pilot program for nonprofit leaders, what she learned along the way, and why the "perfect moment" for a sabbatical never just arrives. You have to create it.
In this episode you will learn:
- Why nonprofit leaders burn out and what organizations can do about it
- What a sabbatical actually looks like in practice and how to plan one effectively
- How funders and board members can shift the culture around rest and sustainability
- Real stories from leaders who took sabbaticals and what changed for them
- How organizational culture shapes leadership, and how leaders can model the change they want to see
