Self-Care by Aisha: Book Review

Beth and Aliza are advocating for a culture change in the nonprofit industry. Just as I have, they argue that if our work matters, we have to figure out a way sustain ourselves.

They meet their missions.

Find Your Nonprofit Happy Place Review by Steve MacLaughlin

Kanter and Sherman reinforce the point that there is no merit badge for achieving burnout. People are the mission-critical part of any nonprofit mission. You are no good to the cause if you are not being good to yourself.

It should be reassuring to nonprofit leaders and employees that the practices Kanter and Sherman describe in their book not only can be but have been implemented.
