I’m Nervous and I Do It

from Grit & Gravitas Hosted by Deeter Gallaher Group

It’s podcast Tuesday, and Anne & Anne are excited to introduce a guest who embodies resilience, grit, and grace: Dr. Ivy Buchan. From saving for college at age seven to working multiple jobs and writing checks to pay her way through school, Ivy has always taken ownership of her career and life journey. She said yes to opportunities before she fully understood them and built a 20+ year career in nonprofit strategy by doing the work and learning as she went. Today, as Principal of Invoke Nonprofit Consulting, she helps organizations navigate governance, fundraising, and strategy. But what stands out most about Ivy isn’t just what she’s built, it’s how she built it. Ivy's advice is simple: “If you want something bad enough, you will figure out how to do it.” “I’m nervous—and I do it,” she says. So many business vitamins in this episode. Don’t miss the last two advice-packed minutes.
