61. Why You Can't Stop Fighting for Your Community (Even When It Costs You)

Last week Lisa talked about the women who stop showing up for you. This week, she's talking about why YOU don't stop — even when it's thankless, even when it costs you friendships, even when you're exhausted and nobody's clapping. Inspired by a blog post she read about justice and why some people are wired at a deep level to fight for fairness, Lisa breaks down the difference between ambition and a calling, why women in impact work burn out, and how to build sustainability around the fire inside you.She also gets into what happens when the people around you feel threatened by your growth, and why their reaction is never about you.If you've ever laid awake thinking about funding, programming, and why the city council still hasn't emailed you back, this is Part 2 of a two-episode series.
