Ep 169| Practical strategies for one-person nonprofit leadership
Leading a nonprofit alone can feel impossible, but with the right mindset, systems, and support, you can move the needle on your mission.
In this episode of The Nonprofit Podcast, Jena Lynch talks with returning host Cara Augspurger about what it really takes to thrive as a solo Executive Director while wearing all the hats.
Cara shares candid lessons on protecting your time, leading with intention, and asking for help, even when it feels easier to just “do it all yourself.”
Whether you’re juggling fundraising, communications, donor relations, and board reports, or just trying to keep your mission moving forward, this conversation offers practical tips on how to:
- Get clear on what truly moves the needle
- Shift from adrenaline-fueled reaction to intentional leadership
- Find support and tap into the strengths already around you
If you’ve ever felt maxed out as a nonprofit leader, this episode will remind you: You don’t have to do it all - and you’re not alone.
