Hey, friends in this episode, I’m breaking down what it really looks like to operate from an abundance mindset as a fundraiser or nonprofit leader. If you're tired of feeling pressure to chase every donor, scared to hear “no,” or stuck in scarcity, this is for you. I’m sharing real stories and practical signs that show when you’re leading from a place of trust, service, and confidence, not desperation.
Let’s talk about donor referrals, releasing misaligned people, and making bold asks with zero attachment. Abundance isn't just a nice idea — it's a powerful shift in how you show up and invite generosity.
What We Cover in This Episode:
- How to know when you're in an abundance mindset (and what it actually looks like in real life)
- Why I refer donors to other nonprofits and how that move came back around years later
- The power of low-pressure, service-based leadership in major donor relationships
- Letting go of board members, donors, and prospects who aren’t aligned
- Why cycling through unresponsive prospects is necessary for growth
- The mindset shift behind bold, audacious asks and how I went from $5K/month to a $300K gift
- How to stop budgeting donors’ philanthropy for them
- Owning your mistakes and asking for donor feedback with confidence
Here’s what I want you to take away: there is plenty. There are plenty of donors, plenty of money, plenty of opportunities. The more we let go of clinging and chasing, the more we make room for aligned, meaningful generosity to flow in.
Being in an abundance mindset doesn’t mean you don’t want results — it means you trust that the right people, the right gifts, and the right timing will come when you lead with service, clarity, and courage.
Do you need to make bolder asks, but you have to figure out what the heck you're going to say? I have a free gift for you. Go to JulieOrdonez. com and get my free donor scripts cheat sheet. You'll get the exact words I've used to raise 50 million from individuals.
