At a stage of life where many women begin asking “How do I give back in a way that actually matters?”—this conversation offers both Clarity and relief. Katherine Lacefield brings decades of experience in the nonprofit world to unpack what giving really looks like today—beyond guilt, perfection, or confusion.
- Why “doing good” doesn’t require perfection
- How to find a cause that genuinely fits you
- The truth about fundraising, salaries, and sustainability
- What most people misunderstand about “administration costs”
- Monthly giving, peer-to-peer campaigns, and real impact
- Why heart-led giving may matter more than purely data-driven decisions
Giving back isn’t about doing it perfectly—it’s about finding where you belong and choosing to begin.

I’ve probably done most of the things you expect a woman my age to have done: married and divorced; three children; variety of jobs over the years including a couple of home-based businesses and, finally, a pretty good career; gave up that career (and home and life) to move and take care of a dementing mother; adult daughter moved back home with a baby; financial struggles; sucker-punched by the post-2007 economy. You tell a similar story.
My podcast is for Boomer Women. A variety of subjects, a variety of viewpoints... and open to suggestions if I'm not covering a topic you want to hear about.
