​If you work for a nonprofit organisation – in a paid capacity or as a volunteer or honorary board member – you’ll be aware of some of the challenges that can arise.
Usually these involve two things: difficulties with organisational complexity and viability, and difficulties between people – sometimes to the degree it can become impossible to see the wood for the trees, and stressful and overwhelming.
 
Victoria Lister is a nonprofit specialist with a Master of Business in Philanthropy and Nonprofit Studies and a combined 40+ years’ of experience in roles at all levels, from volunteer and employee to CEO and board member. Consulting to nonprofit organisations and people since 2010, she brings clarity, simplicity and integrity to the nonprofit table in whatever way it is needed.
 
Additionally, as a practitioner of Esoteric Healing, Victoria is able to combine her understanding of the sector with an awareness of the need for self-care:
“Nonprofit people are dedicated to the work they do and that is beautiful to see. However they can be devoted to the degree they ignore their own self-care and operate from a depleted state. Add to this the many stresses and strains of nonprofit life and you frequently have a recipe for disaster in terms of individual (and collective) health and well-being. It’s important to unravel what’s happening before it takes you over – to restore a way of being that supports you and the work you do.”
