The Power of Yes: Andrea McGinniss on Pressing Through and Passing the Torch
In this episode of Project Red, we sit with Andrea McGinniss—Executive Director of Hands & Feet Project—at a pivotal moment in her journey. For nearly two decades, Andrea has pressed forward through turbulence and transformation: political unrest, pandemics, shifting strategies, and the daily weight of leading in the tension between brokenness and hope.
What sets Andrea apart is not just her tenure, but her posture. She has carried Hands & Feet Project from infrastructure to intimacy, from programs to presence—never losing sight of the “one child perspective.” Her leadership has been as much about faithfulness as it has about strategy, marked by a relentless pursuit of relationship, dignity, and the God-given potential in every child and family. In this candid conversation, Andrea reflects on what it means to press—to strain forward when the load is heavy, to choose resilience when resignation tempts, and to trust that even pressing pain can yield pressing hope. She opens up about the moment she first encountered Haiti’s radical generosity, the lessons of pressing through trial, and the wisdom required to press pause as she steps away from the Executive Director role.
Here’s what we explore together: 🔥 What lead to Andrea’s first “yes” in serving at Hands & Feet Project 🔥 How Hands & Feet Project is pressing forward and operating in our mission in 2025 🔥 Why the “one child perspective” must anchor every step in our mission, however large 🔥 How to press pause with integrity, gratitude, and hope for what’s next 🔥 The legacy Andrea hopes to leave—not in numbers, but in culture and care
If you’re a leader carrying more than you think you can hold, if you’re in a season of big questions, or if you need to be reminded that pressing isn’t punishment but preparation—this conversation is for you. Lean in. Take a breath. And press on. — 📱 Follow H&FP on Instagram! - @hafproject 🍼 Shop Classroom Essentials - https://handsandfeetproject.org/projectessentials/ 🙏🏽 Pray with us!
