"Everything can be turned into an opportunity and a learning moment so I try not to dwell on things. I think the things that are hardest are finding the resources to meet the big vision. When you’re in this work, trying to have transformative impact, that’s a huge vision and the money comes in small amounts. The combination of it always hanging on your neck, that you have to go raise more money and the reality that it’s going to small amounts is enough to discourage anybody but I think all of us who are in the business have made the decision to just put that aside as something we’re not going to let discourage us."
