1310: Beyond Your Shadow: Break Free from Management Traps and Create a Legacy That Matters with Vinnie Fisher
It’s not unusual for business owners to hit their goals and still feel like something’s missing.

He’s written four books, including The CEO’s Mindset and Beyond Your Shadow, and brings decades of business and family experience to his work.

1308: Agents of Good: Connecting with Donors Beyond the Typical Pitch with Creative Director John Lepp

But when a supporter feels seen and valued, everything shifts—the relationship becomes real, and the impact grows with it.
John Lepp is a direct response marketing and design expert with 25+ years of experience helping charities connect with donors. As a partner at Agents of Good and author of Creative Deviations, he focuses on creative, heartfelt fundraising strategies.
