After a devastating loss, what will it take for you to rise up? In today’s episode of the Not For Profit Podcast, I will be speaking with someone who has had to deal with the pain of the tragic loss of loved ones, and how she got on top of that to make a change.
Kerrie Keepa, our guest for today, is the founder of SOS F.A.S.T. who shares with us three invaluable lessons for not only running a Not For Profit, but also for life, namely: 1) Don’t let the loss fall by the wayside; 2) Remember, you are never alone; and 3) If you want to make a change, do it one change at a time.
So if you’re someone who is passionate about instigating change, then tune in to this episode.
