About

This week, a conversation with Rebecca Aced-Molina, an amazing coach and facilitator who is a faculty member with Leadership That Works, a school for coaches who want to be effective in social impact spaces. Rebecca shared her journey as someone making her way in the nonprofit space, from her early disillusionment in nonprofits, to finding her unique way of making an impact as a coach. We also talked about the double-bind -- that special way that women, people of color, and people with marginalized identities find themselves stuck between a rock and a hard place -- and what to do to navigate your way out of it. I distill the top 3 lessons for social impact leadership from every interview I do in an email I send to my Lessons from the Lab subscribers. For instance, the week after this episode comes out, I’ll share an email that digs deep into what to do when the nonprofit double-bind strikes you. I’ll share some of the tools I’ve offered to my one-on-one clients, on how to recognize and navigate your way out, when you find yourself stuck between a rock and a hard place.
