plus, upcoming events and resources to explore power and justice in philanthropy. let’s talk if you want to unpack this more.

we unpack how funding shapes what work gets done, who decides what success means and how power quietly plays its role. no finger pointing just honest talk about the system we are in.

Thanks so much, all of you! This has been incredibly helpful. If anyone else is reading this thread and has more to add, please keep it coming. Appreciate each one of you for taking the time.

if that’s you or someone you know, let’s connect. i’d love to hear what you are building, struggling with or dreaming about.

more soon 🌱

(if you’re curious, i also bake and run a tiny monthly letter called Community Fix for folks thinking about justice, comms and movement work, happy to share!)

so i’m here to talk about what it takes to lead, fund and tell stories in a distracted world.

to ask bigger questions about voice, justice, and what makes a space irreplaceable for people doing the work.

i've spent years alongside grassroots orgs in global south doing powerful work with little visibility and even less support. and through it all i’ve seen how tough and isolating this work can be. but i’ve also seen the power of community, especially when it’s honest, generous and bold.
