On a bad day at work, who among us hasn’t nurtured a self-indulgent notion that goes something like: “I can’t believe they let these idiots run this place. Give me ONE DAY in charge, and I’d have this place clicking on all cylinders by lunchtime.” No? Just me? Well, whether she would frame it in those terms or not (hint: she definitely would not), our guest this week is getting the chance to experience that particular workplace fantasy firsthand. 

In 2016, Molly Matthews was hired as a Team Lead at Pushpay, a software company whose digital giving tools are used by nearly 11,000 churches and nonprofits around the world to process more than $5 billion dollars in charitable giving every year. Five years and five promotions later, and Molly was introduced (in March of 2021) as Pushpay’s CEO, sitting at the helm of a company with a $2 billion market cap and 400+ employees in offices across two continents.

Molly shares some of her early career goals (and how different they are from where she’s ended up), and talks about the importance of bringing our full, authentic selves to our jobs. It’s a wide-ranging conversation that touches on everything from imposter syndrome to work/life balance to the challenges of our new all-remote-all-the-time existence, and we hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed talking to Molly. #BackToWork
