[09:35] How you can ensure every team member feels included in the mission and believe what they do matters
[12:00] Self-care as part of giving back: the concept of giving to yourself first so you can then give to others

NOTEWORTHY QUOTES
“There's something hardwired within us to feel good when we give and I wanted more people to feel that excitement. I want more people to know the health benefits of philanthropy.”
“When you have a positive work environment, you just feel better. It's easier to come to work. You have more energy to give. “
“When we talk about self-care, I think of giving to myself in order for me to give to others.”
“We have a lot of people that we can look to be grateful for. And gratitude is such an important component of philanthropy.”
“I believe we forget the value of time. Fundraisers tend to think of things in terms of who's giving the most money, and I like to think of who's giving the most time
