Webinar: CauseMic Amplify 2020
August 2020. I dive into the myths that keep us in hustle mode, as well as give you two techniques to help combat the burn out. CauseMic specializes in marketing for non-profits, and the non-profit space is notorious for making any self-care or me-time feel selfish. While this video is geared towards nonprofit execs, the lessons are universal.
Please forgive the quality of recording.
