IT IS THROUGH COURAGE, AUTHENTICITY, CONNECTION AND CREATIVITY THAT WE HELP YOU THRIVE

We talk about things happening in the industry - nonprofit toxicity, inequity pay, etc. and how grant writers have /are being treated unjustly.

For our students, we also provide mindset coaching and are courageous to give them hard coaching. We lean into this messaging when pitching to get on podcasts, talk about on our own podcasts/social/emails, and coach on this in our programs.

Holly digs down into who she is to make big courageous business decisions that even though they might not feel 'comfy' they are needed. She also trust my business coaches on their advice.

We are honest with our story and also honest in how we interact with students. We also promote an awareness around the validity of how our students feel as they go through changes as entrepreneurs and in their identity.

We fully believe that this process of shifting identities from 'employee' to owner has students peel back layers of money trauma and old story-telling. What we see is that the students shift into this identity feeling supported and shine as who they actually are and don't have to 'become' someone else.

So instead of going into a sales call with old 'self-protecting' beliefs they go into Sales Calls and writing grants with confidence of who they really are, shoulders up straight. What this looks like and how it shows up in our programs/ business: We talk about things happening in the industry - nonprofit toxicity, inequity pay, etc. and how grant writers have /are being treated unjustly.

We believe in relationships being important for real connection for changemakers in our programs, but also how they operate with funders in their businesses.

This shows up in the interaction in our Slack channel and sharing in coaching. We try to be aware as possible about what's happening in the industry and social changes that impacts people. We provide a safe place where changemakers of all different races, ages, and gender representation, etc. belong and have a voice.

Making sure we hire people with diverse backgrounds in our business and having diverse vendors, we want folks in our programs to be represented. We believe that we, from diverse backgrounds, have much to teach each other. 

We believe in quality being important, but sometimes speed to market is equally important. We look at creative ways to get students resources, feedback, and connections that they need, when they need it.

Just because something has always been done a certain way doesn't mean it's always right. We are disrupters in this space because we are completely looking at the way that grant writers have been treated for DECADES and changing up the narrative and beliefs around this. We think creatively and provide language and vocabulary to support folks as they change their pricing, confront urban myths about grant writing, etc.

From being intentional with small things like having pictures of different people in our marketing to making sure we hire people with diverse backgrounds in our business, we want folks in our programs to be represented. We believe that we, from diverse backgrounds, have much to teach each other.
