Wealthy After 40: Retirement Planning and Budgeting for Gen X · Ep 103 | What Is Generosity? A Conversation with Alison Patterson, Generosity Strategist · 21 Feb 2025 podcast

Well, my approach is a little different because most people start with how, how am I going to give?

Oh,

I'm going to give $100 here.

I am going to start a donor advice fund.

I am going to do this.

And what strategy will I use to do that?

Or I am going to join a board.

How I like to start with people is really coming up with their why.

You know, that whole Simon Sinek, what's your why?

And creating their own strategy.

generosity statement, manifesto, whatever that's going to be for them, and really beginning to own that with confidence.

Because generosity really is your superpower, but you have to understand that

that within your own self.

So first, whenever I start with folks, whether we're talking about giving their time, using their voice as a resource, using their financial resources,

Whenever we start, I always start with, OK, let's let's ground this in a statement.

I value community education, you know, and start getting people into those nitty gritty moments of these are the things that I value.

And this is the way that I want to today in this moment drive what I have.

So I do work with financial advisors and financial planners, especially when we're talking about financial resources.

But I try and take a holistic approach to what are the resources that you have?

Absolutely.
