Resilience isn’t just a buzzword. It’s a necessity for fundraisers navigating today’s uncertainty.

In this episode of Real Talk for Real Fundraisers, Jeff Schreifels is joined by Veritus Group Client Experience Leaders Laura Lang and Lauren Centrella for a timely conversation about what it means to lead with empathy, courage, and steadiness in the face of ongoing challenges.

Together, they explore the emotional toll that uncertainty can take on fundraisers, the responsibility leaders have in supporting staff well-being, and the power of authentic communication in maintaining morale. Having worked closely with non-profits across the country, Laura and Lauren offer grounded advice for how to prioritize relationships over results, celebrate small wins, and show up for one another when it matters most.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating the ups and downs of fundraising today, and for leaders committed to building a more human-centered culture within their teams.
