Robin is the Founder and CEO of The Abundant Nonprofit and the creator of the 7-Figure Nonprofit Framework. She is a speaker, strategist, culture-builder, and team whisperer.
She works with nonprofit leaders who are done feeling stuck, underfunded, and overwhelmed—and who are ready to lead with clarity, confidence, and cash flow.
For over 30 years, Robin has helped visionaries transform burnt-out boards into dream teams, scattered programs into powerful movements, and struggling budgets into sustainable revenue. She doesn’t offer quick fixes—she builds legacies.
Key Takeaways:
True sustainability means valuing both momentum and stillness. Embrace periods of rest with the same intention as times of productivity—lulls are not setbacks, but part of the cycle that fuels longevity and creativity.
When another organization receives a major donation or breakthrough opportunity, it isn’t a sign of scarcity—it’s proof of potential. Their success is not a threat, but an invitation to believe that there is more than enough for all.
Money is never just numbers—it flows through trust, relationships, and shared purpose. Success begins not with pressure or hustle, but with deeply rooted connection to people and their stories.
Mistakes aren’t hidden or punished—they’re addressed with honesty and care. A culture that encourages transparency without blame becomes one where growth, resilience, and learning can truly thrive.
“Money is not a number game, it's a people game. Money is all about people.”
“When another nonprofit gets the big check, it doesn't mean it's not there for us. It's actually the opposite. It's showing us what's possible.”
“The most important thing they can do is embrace the lull as emphatically as they embrace the hustle.”
