When Logics Collide: Rethinking Risk, Power, and Purpose in Finance with Linda Gordeychev
In this episode of More Than Profit, Bryce Butler sits down with Linda Gordeychev, a bilingual finance professional, former teacher, and systems thinker who’s helping to reshape the way large capital allocators align their investments with their values. Linda’s story begins on Long Island as the daughter of immigrants, continues through Villanova and Teach for America, and now finds her working at Ethic, where she builds customized values-aligned portfolios for institutional clients.
Together, they explore how language and power shape access, how traditional finance often misses the deeper mission of philanthropy, and why donor-advised funds (DAFs) offer both opportunity and risk when divorced from meaningful engagement. Linda reflects on her own journey from hedge funds to impact investing, the tensions between identity and capital, and how participatory governance and collaborative giving could help reimagine the future of wealth transfer.

Donating Equity: Making Ownership Part of Generosity with Landon Young
What if donating stock was as natural as writing a check? In this episode, Bryce Butler is joined by longtime friend and fellow ecosystem builder Landon Young to explore the untapped potential of donating equity as a tool for generosity, community transformation, and systemic change.
Landon shares his personal journey—from his first company exit and giving experience to co-founding Donate Equity, a platform that helps founders give ownership in their companies to charitable causes. They discuss the nuts and bolts of equity donations, how donor-advised funds (DAFs) can be used more strategically, and how philanthropy can act as society’s most risk-tolerant capital.
This is a conversation about legacy, liquidity, and local impact—and how everyday entrepreneurs, not just tech unicorns, can lead the next generation of place-based generosity.
