625. Hold Fast: 8 Takeaways on Finding Resilience + Clarity - Jon McCoy and Becky Endicott

We Are For Good Podcast - The Podcast for Nonprofits

What does it look like to hold fast and move forward—at the same time?

In this heart-filled wrap-up of our ImpactUp series, Jon + Becky reflect on eight powerful lessons that emerged from this season’s conversations around resilience, clarity, and building momentum in times of uncertainty.

From grounding ourselves in community to embracing the unknown, you’ll walk away with practical takeaways and a renewed sense of purpose. We talk about the power of story, the strength in showing up authentically, and how we can all anchor ourselves in values—especially when the world feels wobbly.

This one’s a love letter to nonprofit leaders, social impact folks, and anyone navigating change with heart. 💛

✨ You’ll learn:

• Why uncertainty isn’t something to fear—but something to move with
• How to build resilience personally + organizationally
• Why trust, community, and connection are the real growth strategies
• The kind of storytelling that fuels generosity and movement

Come get inspired—and reminded you’re not alone. Let’s keep moving forward, together.✨
