This week on The Art of Good, I had the absolute privilege of speaking with John Shertzer, the Executive Director of the Medal of Honor Foundation. Let me tell you, this conversation is one for the books. John is a passionate nonprofit leader, a community builder, and someone deeply committed to shaping lives of honor and service.

Together, we explored the transformative power of storytelling, the humbling experiences of working alongside Medal of Honor recipients, and how nonprofits can stay true to their mission while evolving to meet the needs of future generations.
