I sat down with Stephanie Roth and Haley Bash, co-authors of the updated Accidental Fundraiser, and we got into what it really means to fundraise when you didn't plan on it—and maybe don't feel totally ready for it.We talked about:Why so many people still feel uncomfortable asking for moneyHow house parties can be more effective (and fun) than galasThe power of tapping your volunteers as donorsFundraising as a form of community organizingAnd why trying to ask everyone for everything never worksOne thing I loved: You don't need fancy tools or big events to raise real money. A solid list, a clear plan, and authentic relationships can take you far.This episode is full of practical advice and encouragement—especially if you're building the plane while flying it. You're not alone.Important Links:Connect with Stephanie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanie-roth-17b15b5/ Connect with Haley: https://www.linkedin.com/in/haleybash/ My Big Ask Gifts Program: ⁠https://go.rheawong.com/big-ask-gifts-program⁠ My Book, Get That Money Honey: ⁠https://go.rheawong.com/get-that-money-honey⁠ My Newsletter: ⁠https://www.rheawong.com/⁠ 

Norm Hitzges is back and wondering—do Cowboys fans really know who's holding this team together behind the scenes? This episode starts with some well-deserved love for two unsung heroes: offensive line coach Connor Riley and receivers coach Junior Adams, who somehow turned a patchwork lineup of backups into a 37–22 beatdown of the Jets.Norm dives into the brilliance (and borderline wizardry) it takes to coach your ninth-best offensive lineman into keeping Dak Prescott upright and your sixth-string wideout into looking like a first-round pick. It's football analysis meets admiration—and maybe just a little disbelief.Then, just when things seem serious, we get a left turn into The Case of the Accidental Finger—Jerry Jones' now-infamous “wrong hand gesture” incident that cost him $250,000 and a permanent spot in meme history. Norm breaks it down with equal parts humor and side-eye, questioning just how “accidental” that finger really was.From X's and O's to oops and oh-nos, this one's classic Norm: sharp, funny, and straight to the point (no pun intended). ⏱️ Chapters:00:00 - Who the Heck Are Connor Riley and Junior Adams?01:25 - Fluent Financial: Because You Deserve a Smarter Game Plan02:09 - Four Starters Out, No Problem03:02 - Meet Connor Riley: The Lineman Whisperer03:53 - Coaching the 9th-Best Guy Into an MVP Moment04:40 - Junior Adams and the Rise of the Forgotten Receivers05:33 - Ryan Flournoy's Big Day and the Art of Coaching Nobodies06:41 - Jerry Jones and the Case of the Accidental Finger09:00 - “I Put Up the Wrong Show of Hand” — Sure, Jerry11:03 - The $250,000 Middle Finger Heard ‘Round the World11:54 - Scotch, Fines, and a Perry Mason Callback12:42 - Fluent Financial & Bob's Steakhouse: The True Power Couple13:17 - Closing Thoughts: Cowboys, Coaching, and Comic ReliefCheck us out: patreon.com/sunsetloungedfwInstagram: sunsetloungedfwTiktok: sunsetloungedfwX: SunsetLoungeDFWFB: Sunset Lounge DFW

We also discuss JK Rowling's comments following Emma Watson's appearance on Jay Shetty's podcast.

HEADLINE: Russian Spy Ships Target Vulnerable Undersea Communication Cables GUEST NAME: Kevin Frazier50 WORD SUMMARY: Undersea cables are highly vulnerable to sabotage or accidental breaks. Russia uses sophisticated naval technology, including the spy ship Yantar, to map and potentially break these cables in sensitive locations. The US is less vulnerable due to redundancy. However, protection is fragmented, relying on private owners who often lack incentives to adopt sophisticated defense techniques. 1945 RED SQUARE

My guest today is Nick O'Donohoe CMG – former CEO of British International Investment, co-founder of Big Society Capital, and one of the early figures to frame impact investing as a financial discipline.Nick spent nearly three decades in global banking – first at Goldman Sachs, then at JPMorgan, where he rose to become Global Head of Research.When the crisis hit in 2008, Nick left JPMorgan to explore whether finance could be used to serve people who had never been served by it at all.That search took him to Bellagio, where the Rockefeller Foundation had gathered a small group of investors, philanthropists, and bankers to explore a new idea – something that would eventually become known as impact investing.Nick brought a small research team – and the ability to put JPMorgan's name on something. He offered to write a report explaining what impact investing could be: who it was for, how it might work, and why it mattered.That report – Impact Investments: An Emerging Asset Class – was the first of its kind. It gave the idea a name, a structure, and a platform. For the first time, the field became legible – to banks, to investors, and to the wider world.A few years later, he left banking to co-found Big Society Capital (now known as Better Society Capital) with Sir Ronald Cohen. Their mission was to use dormant assets to back the UK's social sector.Big Society Capital backed early-stage social enterprises, co-founded intermediaries, and pushed for legal structures that could attract blended capital.In 2017, Nick became CEO of CDC Group – later British International Investment – the UK's development finance institution. His mandate: deploy billions in public capital into emerging markets, while balancing risk, return, and development goals.Under his leadership, BII invested in solar and wind, hospitals, digital connectivity, agribusiness, and venture capital. Most of that capital flowed into Africa, South Asia, and parts of the Caribbean.He also launched the Catalyst Portfolio – where expected returns were zero or even negative. He introduced an Impact Score to measure social and environmental outcomes with the same rigor as financial ones.During his time at BII, over 60% of the portfolio went into African countries. He believes capital needs to be structured differently to reach the people and places that need it most. That's where development finance has to step in – to fill the gaps the market won't touch on its own.Now Nick is about to start as a Senior Fellow at the Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government at the Harvard Kennedy School, where he'll be focused on what comes next.If I had to sum up our conversation in one word, it would be risk – financial, political, and moral. But we talked about much more.Tune in to hear from Nick O'Donohoe firsthand.—Connect with SRI360°:Sign up for the free weekly email updateVisit the SRI360° PODCASTVisit the SRI360° WEBSITEFollow SRI360° on XFollow SRI360° on FACEBOOK—Additional Resources:- Nick O'Donohoe CMG LinkedIn- British International Investment website- Impact Investments: An Emerging Asset Class

Some of the greatest inventions we use every day were created by accident. From the microwave to ice-cream cones, the accidental inventions on this list completely changed our way of life. Sometimes things don't go according to plan. But every now and then, it's for the better! American chemist Roy J. Plunkett was doing research for the company Dupont to make fridges safer and invented a strange substance that was non-reactive, non-stick, and resistant to extreme temperatures. We all know it as Teflon. John Pemberton was a pharmacist trying to find a way to get rid of headaches. He came up with a simple recipe consisting of two ingredients: coca leaves and cola nuts combined into a syrup. It was later mixed with soda by accident and became a huge hit. Dr. Spencer Silver, a chemist for 3M Company, was trying to create a super strong adhesive but what he got instead was a “low-tack” yet high-quality adhesive only strong enough to hold up a piece of paper but durable enough to be relocated multiple times without losing its stick. We all know and love it as Post-it notes today. The first antidepressant was discovered in 1957 and was supposed to be a cure for tuberculosis. Wilhelm Roentgen unintentionally put his hand in front of an electron-beam tube back in 1895 and noticed that the radiation passed through solid objects and body parts leaving a shadow.

How do you find comfort in the precepts? What is the relationship between anger, forgiveness and justice? What about anxiety due to abrupt insight into emptiness? This is one of my unscripted Q&A episodes, where I answer questions submitted by listeners.

On this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty speaks with Catherine Crestani—intuitive healer, leadership coach, podcaster, and author of Pillars for Life. Catherine shares how walking away from two six-figure businesses led to a deeper definition of success rooted in peace, integrity, and self-leadership. We unpack spiritual ethics in real life (discernment, boundaries, responsibility), the cost of misalignment (burnout, anxiety, insomnia), and how to rebuild a career and family life around authentic values. We also explore the growing bridge between spirituality and science, practical ways to listen to your body's wisdom, and the everyday courage required to change—even when it threatens income, relationships, or reputation. Clear, grounded, and immediately useful for leaders, coaches, healers, and high achievers seeking sustainable, values-aligned success.   About the guest  : Catherine Crestani is an intuitive healer, leadership coach, international speaker, and host of the Willow Healing Matters podcast. Author of Pillars for Life: A Guide to Spiritual Ethics and Practice for Lightworkers, Healers, Psychics, Mediums, Shamans, Energy Workers, and All Souls Called to Shine Their Light, Catherine blends energy medicine with practical leadership tools to help people reclaim their voice, worth, and authentic path.   Key takeaways: Alignment beats achievement: Traditional markers (title, revenue, status) won't feel like success if your work conflicts with your values. Your body tells the truth: Recurring symptoms (fatigue, anxiety, numbness) can signal misalignment—slow down, listen, adjust. Discernment is ethical practice: Take what resonates, leave the rest; real guides encourage independence, not dependence. Two kinds of courage: Accidental (forced by crisis) and intentional (chosen). Practice small, brave actions daily to build the muscle. Choose yourself, then receive: When Catherine set a clear exit date, unexpected opportunities appeared—ask, allow, receive. Spiritual ethics are daily habits: Honesty, boundaries, responsibility, and transparency in business, family, and client work. Simple practices win: Short, consistent meditation and basic tools (muscle testing, heart check-ins) can be more effective than lengthy rituals. Head last, heart first: Lead with heart wisdom, confirm with gut safety, then consult the mind for execution. Red flags in “guru culture”: If a practitioner resists questions or creates dependency, walk away. Success redefined: Peace becomes the metric; work, family, and health align around it.   How to connect with Catherine   Website: Willow Healing MattersPodcast: Willow Healing MattersInstagram: @catherinecrestani Offer: Free 30-minute coaching session (genuinely non-sales; designed to help you clarify your next step)   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

HEADLINE: Kennedy Chooses Quarantine Despite Military Demands for Invasion GUEST NAME: Professor Serhii Plokhy BOOK TITLE: Nuclear Folly TOPIC: Accidental War Warning SUMMARY: President Kennedy faced fierce opposition from the Joint Chiefs, led by General LeMay, who accused him of appeasement by referencing Munich and demanded immediate invasion (OPLAN 312). Kennedy refused to "cave under pressure," fearing that invading Cubawould lead the Soviets to seize Berlin. He ultimately chose the quarantine (blockade), announcing it on Monday, October 22, while the Presidium in Moscow awaited in panic.1920 CUBA

HEADLINE: Mikoyan Negotiates the "Crisis of November" with Fidel Castro GUEST NAME: Professor Serhii Plokhy BOOK TITLE: Nuclear Folly TOPIC: Accidental War Warning SUMMARY: After the crisis resolution, Nikita Khrushchev rationalized his actions but faced internal criticism. Fidel Castro, who had advocated nuclear attack, felt insulted by the lack of consultation. Khrushchev sent Mikoyan to negotiate with Castro, who refused to allow inspections and sought to retain tactical nuclear weapons, leading to the "crisis of November." The eventual, humiliating Soviet withdrawal verified by US ships was cited in Khrushchev's later removal. 1899 HAVANA

HEADLINE: Black Saturday Escapes Catastrophe: The Submarine and the Downed U-2 GUEST NAME: Professor Serhii Plokhy BOOK TITLE: Nuclear Folly TOPIC: Accidental War Warning SUMMARY: Black Saturday(October 27, 1962) saw two accidents nearly trigger nuclear war. In the Sargasso Sea, the Soviet submarine B-59, tracked by the USS Cony, prepared to fire a nuclear torpedo until Captain Vasily Arkhipov overruled the order. Separately in Cuba, Soviet forces, believing invasion was imminent following orders from Fidel Castro, shot down an American U-2plane, killing Major Anderson. 1959

HEADLINE: The Two Letters: The Demand for Jupiter Missiles in Turkey GUEST NAME: Professor Serhii PlokhyBOOK TITLE: Nuclear Folly TOPIC: Accidental War Warning SUMMARY: Khrushchev sent two conflicting letters during the height of the crisis: a private one discussing withdrawal for a guarantee not to attack Cuba, and a second, broadcast via Radio Moscow, demanding the withdrawal of US Jupiter missiles from Turkey. Kennedy personally favored trading the Turkey missiles, which were a NATO liability, but ExComm feared the political consequences of undermining the alliance. 1920 CUBA

      HEADLINE: "The Other Guy Blinked": Soviets Reverse Ships to Avoid Quarantine GUEST NAME: Professor Serhii Plokhy BOOK TITLE: Nuclear Folly TOPIC: Accidental War Warning SUMMARY: The experienced diplomat Anastas Mikoyan served as a calming influence in the Presidium, having opposed the missile deployment from the start. Following Kennedy's speech, the Soviets ordered missile ships to turn back to avoid the quarantine. This news reached the White House hours later, minutes after Kennedy authorized an attack. Dean Rusk described the tense situation with the famous "eyeball to eyeball" metaphor. 1962

HEADLINE: The Missile Gap Drives Operation Anadyr in Cuba GUEST NAME: Professor Serhii Plokhy BOOK TITLE: Nuclear Folly TOPIC: Accidental War Warning SUMMARY: Khrushchev conceived the idea of placing missiles in Cuba during a trip to Bulgaria, responding to US Jupiter missiles in Turkey. This deployment, Operation Anadyr, aimed to quickly solve the strategic missile gap favoring the United States. Khrushchev chose cavalryman Ivan Pliyev of North Ossetia to command the operation, valuing his loyalty and multi-unit experience. Over 40,000 unprepared Soviet troops were deployeD.   1962 CUBA

HEADLINE: Nikita Khrushchev's Miscalculation and the Specter of Berlin GUEST NAME: Professor Serhii PlokhyBOOK TITLE: Nuclear Folly TOPIC: Accidental War Warning SUMMARY: Nikita Khrushchev, a shrewd politician who succeeded Joseph Stalin, was widely misunderstood as a clown.

Kennedy that Soviet nuclear-armed ballistic missiles had been spotted in Cuba. Kennedy was immediately upset, viewing Nikita Khrushchev as an "immoral gangster."

PREVIEW.  HEADLINE TOPIC: Accidental Discovery of Ionic Liquid and its Implications for Extraterrestrial Life GUEST NAME: Professor Sara Seager GUEST NAME AND TITLE: Professor Sara Seager of MIT, astrophysicist, planetary scientist, and physicist PREVIEW: Professor Sara Seager details her post-doc Rajna Agarwal's accidental discovery of ionic liquid while simulating Venus's environment. The experiment involved evaporating concentrated sulfuric acid and organic molecules, expecting complete evaporation under low pressure. However, a persistent tiny liquid residue was found, identified as an ionic liquid. This unexpected finding, not water, could profoundly impact the search for organic life beyond Earth or reveal new insights into life on other planets, particularly in Venus's sulfuric acid clouds. Seager will discuss this further on "Hotel Mars" with David Livingston. 1954
