Welcome to Possibility Project! We are a growing community of disruptive changemakers reclaiming our power through meaningful sparks connections and actions. I co-created Possibility Project in March of 2020 when COVID hit the U.S. with the dream of making this moment matter and wanted to have the conversations we were having in dark corners about dysfunction in the social sector at scale.
My name is Heather Hiscox. I am the CEO and founder of Pause for Change and I work with nonprofits, local governments, and philanthropic foundations to help them address challenges and pursue opportunities in less time, using fewer resources while achieving greater impact.
I am also the author of the book, No More Status Q: A Proven Framework to Change the Way We Change the World, which is a step-by-step guide for frustrated changemakers, full of stories of inspiration and simple steps to co-design more impactful solutions. You can get your copy anywhere you buy books online.
You can learn more about the good trouble I'm causing at www.pauseforchange.com or connect with me on LinkedIn.

Exposing the Limits of Expertise: When Personal Proficiency Halts Social Change
In our work as designers and professional problem solvers, we often rely on years of experience and professional training to guide our work. But what happens when those skills, methodologies, expertise, and experience actually create barriers to authentic connection and shared power with community members?
Brooke Staton, Dr. Pierce Edward Cornelius Otlhogile-Gordon, and Milan Drake will dive into discussing how with the best of intentions (and the best of training), there are limitations of our expertise that can actually interfere with creating impact.
