The House That Love Built: Alyson McCarthy on RMHC Las Vegas
Hey everyone! Welcome back to The In-Between podcast! Today I'm sitting down with Alyson McCarthy - CEO of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Greater Las Vegas. Before leading this incredible organization, Alyson spent 22 years as a television news anchor and investigative reporter. We're diving into her gutsy career pivot from the newsroom to nonprofit, what broke her during those final years in TV, and how she's building a culture of compassion and self-care at RMHC. We also talk about the misconceptions people have about Ronald McDonald House, what families actually experience there, and why taking care of your team is the real measure of success.
What You'll Hear:
How RMHC operates independently from McDonald's corporate (and where funding really comes from)
The biggest misconceptions about Ronald McDonald House
Why it's not sad to work there - it's actually full of light and hope
The new house designed for larger families with longer stays
Alyson's breaking point after 22 years in TV news
The "if it bleeds it leads" culture that led to her burnout
How she quit without another job lined up (and what happened next)
Divine intervention: the Nevada Donor Network opportunity
Getting the call back to RMHC after initially turning it down
Her husband's belief in her when she didn't believe in herself
Why success isn't about raising $3 million - it's about taking care of your team first
The power of emotional intelligence and self-awareness in leadership
Why we need to retrain ourselves not to "give until it hurts"
Living in the gray and messy in-between moments
Her advice: Stop pretending you're not evolving as a person
