In this episode, I sit down with Fatima Djelmane Rodriguez, the powerhouse CEO of Ronald McDonald House Charities of Southern California. Fatima’s journey is nothing short of inspiring—starting as a passionate volunteer and development associate, she has risen to lead one of the largest chapters of RMHC in North America.
We discuss her early days in the nonprofit world, the pivotal moments that shaped her path, and her innovative approach to leadership and fundraising. Fatima opens up about the challenges of balancing family and a demanding career, how her spiritual and cultural influences drive her mission, and her commitment to empowering underserved communities.
