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.

We talked about, moral injury, the damage done to one’s conscience or moral compass when that person perpetrates, witnesses, or fails to prevent acts that transgress one’s own moral beliefs, values, or ethical codes of conduct (source: Moral Injury Project).
How does this play out in our social change organizations and work? Most of us do this work because we care deeply about justice and opportunity for all people. How do we reconcile instances when how our organizations operate, how decisions are made, and how actions are taken in the name of social good, violate our own moral compasses?
I was joined by three fantastic guests to dive into these topics.
