I hope everyone is doing well! I wanted to take a poll survey and get some feedback in the comments. So after you answer the poll question, I would like to know from the 501c3’ers, what do you feel like you need in 2026 for your nonprofit? Oh yeah, money cannot be the answer because that’s a given.

I am sooooo excited that you have joined us!🙂Please introduce yourself and be sure to include where you are located🏙️, the name of your nonprofit🥰, who you serve, and an image or GIF of your dream destination🏖️🏰🏕️.

I'm sharing because, believe it or not, some funders will still require your application and supporting documents to be mailed. It is imperative that applicants follow directions. This one requires 2 copies of the application and has specific instructions on where it should be sent via "snail" mail. _______________________________________________________________________ The approval and check issuance will take up to three months, so please plan accordingly. Applicants will be notified by mail of approval or denial. All decisions are final, but

Hey Impact Leader! I want to share something I created for myself as I grow into the woman I’m becoming in 2026. And I thought… why not share it with you too? Oh yeah, I was asked to do this by one of my Coaches.😉 Because every one of us has a future version calling us to rise a little higher, move a little smarter, and honor ourselves a little deeper. Here’s the reminder my future self whispered back to me, and maybe it’s speaking to you too: ⭐ Who You’re Becoming You’re stepping into a season where peace is power. Your gifts feel sharper. Your voice feels stronger. Your purpose feels clearer. You’re no longer carrying everything. You’re no longer explaining yourself. You’re no longer shrinking your brilliance to fit into small rooms. You’re moving like the leader you were always meant to be. ⭐ What You’re Leaving Behind You’re releasing: - Overcommitment - Chaos disguised as opportunity - Burnout disguised as “being needed” - Clients, circles, and causes that drain you - The habit of putting yourself last You’re making space for the version of you who leads with clarity instead of exhaustion. ⭐ What You’re Leaning Into This next level of you is choosing: - Environments that restore your spirit (yes, even if that means a quiet weekend with a book) - Rooms that match your intellect and ambition - Conversations that expand you - Work that feels aligned, not forced - Systems that make your life easier, not heavier You’re choosing nourishment over noise. Alignment over approval. Purpose over pressure. ⭐ When You Drifting a Little… Ask yourself: 1. Is this mine to carry? 2. Does this align with who I’m becoming? 3. Does this expand me or drain me? 4. Would my future self want this version of me to say yes? Re-center. Re-adjust.Reclaim your peace. 🌟 2026 Mantra “I expand with ease. I lead with intention. I honor my peace first.” If this spoke to you, drop a 💚 in the comments, but ALSO a little extra would be appreciated... Tell me: What is your future self calling you into for 2026?
