#347- Advice from a BIPOC Fundraiser with Anysa Holder
Description
I had the real pleasure of sitting down with my brilliant friend Anysa Holder, Chief Advancement Officer at Easterseals NJ, on the latest episode of Nonprofit Lowdown. 🙌🏽
We covered so much ground, including:
💥 What it’s like to stay in the nonprofit sector for 15+ years
đź’Ą The emotional labor of fundraising (especially as women of color)
đź’Ą Unpacking money trauma and mindset
💥 Why board training needs a major upgrade—and how Anysa’s leading that charge
đź’Ą How to avoid burnout while staying mission-driven
One of my favorite things Anysa said?
👉🏽 “The whole job is unpacking stuff… because it’s relational.”
We laughed, got deep, and got real about what it takes to do this work and still stay grounded.
If you’re a nonprofit leader, fundraiser, or just trying to do meaningful work without losing yourself—this one is for you.
