Hey friend! I'm recording from my new apartment in Chicago, and I'm so excited to bring you Part 3 of my series on end-of-year giving strategies. This episode is a pep talk about the single most important thing I want you to focus on for a successful end of year: asking for more.I know it sounds simple, but asking for more is the strategy that makes the biggest difference in raising money. I'm talking about asking current donors, loyal supporters, and even monthly donors for more — without overthinking it, without worrying about what's “too much,” and without trying to budget their philanthropy for them. Your job is to communicate the need, build relationships, and invite generosity. The rest is up to them. IN THIS EPISODE:Why asking for more is the #1 strategy for end-of-year successHow to stop worrying about what's “too much” for your donorsWhy perfectionism and over-preparing can actually hold you backHow humility can make up for lack of know-how or misstepsWhy fundraising is risky — and why that's okayHow to turn mistakes into stronger donor relationshipsTips for having confident, clear conversations with your supportersMy approach to determining ask amounts and staying decisiveHow to navigate awkwardness, conflict, and uncertainty with donorsThe truth is, most of us overthink asking for more, and that hesitation costs time, energy, and ultimately, donations. I want you to feel set free from the fear of asking for too much or getting it “wrong.” Humility, emotional intelligence, and willingness to risk are your allies — they allow you to make the ask, repair missteps if needed, and build stronger, healthier relationships.Whether you're raising major gifts for the first time or trying to hit your end-of-year goals, this episode is packed with practical advice and encouragement to help you lean in, take the risk, and ask for more.DM me CL to learn about joining Courage Lab, my cohort for leaders who want to raise $100K+ in just 1–2 hours a week.Want 15 leads in 5 minutes?

Too many renters delay buying because they think they need far more cash than reality. In this updated replay, David Sidoni explains why the “wait and save” mindset is one of the biggest mistakes first-time buyers make—and how much you actually need to bring to closing.If you've been sitting on the sidelines thinking you need $50,000, $80,000, or even $100,000 saved before buying, this episode is for you. In today's shifting 2025 market—where buyers finally have more leverage in many areas—the biggest obstacle is still misinformation about closing costs.In this myth-busting replay of episode 348, David Sidoni breaks down why 90% of aspiring buyers overestimate what it takes to close, costing them years of wasted rent and lost equity. You'll hear real-world examples of buyers who closed on homes with far less than they expected, plus the creative (but totally legit) tools that helped them get there: low down payment programs, seller credits, and assistance options.Closing isn't just a date on the calendar—it's a moving process with shifting costs and timelines. But with clarity, preparation, and the right mindset, you can take control of the chaos and finally stop waiting on the sidelines.“That phrase, ‘wait and save,' has cost renters hundreds of millions of dollars in unnecessary rent paid and equity lost.”HighlightsWhy most renters dramatically overestimate down payment and closing costsReal examples of buyers closing with as little as $4,100Why the myth of 10–20% down plus extra costs is holding you backHow loan programs, seller credits, and assistance can reduce cash neededWhy closing is a process, not a single day—and how to manage itThe mindset shift that helps Type-A buyers stay calm when timelines shiftThe truth: you don't need as much as you think to buy your first homeConnect with me to find a trusted realtor in your area or to answer your burning questions!Subscribe to our YouTube Channel @HowToBuyaHomeInstagram @HowtoBuyAHomePodcastTik Tok @HowToBuyAHomeVisit our Resource Center to "Ask David" AND get your FREE Home Buying Starter Kit!David Sidoni, the "How to Buy a Home Guy," is a seasoned real estate professional and consumer advocate with two decades of experience helping first-time homebuyers navigate the real estate market.

Episode 209: Why Etsy Isn't Too Saturated for You“Etsy is too saturated.”If you've said this (or thought it), you're not alone. It's one of the most common beliefs I hear from handmade sellers, especially when they're struggling to get visibility or comparing their shop to others.But I want to challenge that belief today. Because while Etsy is competitive, that's not the same as saturated. And once you understand how Etsy really works? You'll see that there's still room for you and your shop no matter what niche you're in.If you've ever felt like your shop is getting buried, that your product won't stand out, or that it's too late to grow, this episode is for you.What you'll learn:The difference between competition and saturation (and why it matters)Why Etsy doesn't rank the “best” listings…it ranks the most relevantHow new sellers are gaining traction in crowded categoriesWhat Etsy actually rewards in searchWhy “too saturated” is just a myth holding you backHow to make sure your shop is findable, even in a competitive nicheResources mentioned:Join the EVA waitlist: https://sarahjwaggoner.com/evaYour Next Steps:Join my Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theheartlandcreativeFollow me on Threads: https://www.threads.com/@sarahjwaggonerFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sarahjwaggoner

Anne Montgomery was one of the first women to anchor ESPN's SportsCenter—but when her TV career ended abruptly at 38, she found herself broke, heartbroken, and convinced her best days were behind her. In this gripping and often funny episode, Anne shares the highs of breaking barriers in sports media and the lows of losing it all. What came next? A completely unexpected new identity that brought her more joy and meaning than she ever imagined. If you've ever faced a reinvention you didn't ask for, Anne's story will make you laugh, tear up, and rethink what it means to start over.Guest Bio Anne Butler Montgomery has worked as a television sportscaster, newspaper and magazine writer, teacher, author, and amateur sports official. She worked for five TV stations, including ESPN where she anchored SportsCenter and finished her on-camera broadcasting career with a two-year stint as the studio host for the NBA's Phoenix Suns. Montgomery was a freelance and/or staff reporter for six publications and has written six traditionally published novels. Montgomery taught journalism and communication skills in a Title I high school for 20 years and was an amateur sports official for four decades, a time during which she called football, baseball, ice hockey, soccer, and basketball games. Montgomery is a foster mom to three sons and a daughter. When she can, she indulges in her passions: rock collecting, scuba diving, and playing her guitar.Turning 40 and facing a midlife curveballAnne Montgomery broke barriers as one of the first female sportscasters in the U.S., working for five television stations—including anchoring SportsCenter at ESPN—during an era when women were barely visible in sports media. But when her contract wasn't renewed at age 38, her career came to an abrupt halt, and she faced a painful truth: the industry thought she was too old to be on TV. What followed was a years-long identity crisis marked by debt, self-doubt, and the collapse of her marriage. And yet, as she shares in this remarkable conversation, Anne's midlife “derailment” led her to the most meaningful work—and relationships—of her life.In this heartfelt and often hilarious episode, Anne recounts the twists and turns of a life that didn't go as planned, but ended up exactly where she was meant to be.Highlights from the episode:The moment in high school when Anne insisted on reading the sports—and never looked backHow she trained as a referee in five sports to learn the rules and build credibility as a sportscasterWhat it was like to be the only woman in the locker room, on the sidelines, and at ESPN in the 1980sThe brutal way she was pushed out of TV and how long it took to find her footing againThe unexpected friendship that helped her shift perspective and stop feeling sorry for herselfHow returning to school at 42 led her to a 20-year teaching career that reshaped her identityThe emotional story of how she became a mother—at age 55—to one of her former studentsAnne Montgomery's story is one of perseverance, reinvention, and unexpected blessings. What began as a pioneering career in sports broadcasting eventually gave way to an equally meaningful chapter as a teacher and foster mother. Her journey reminds us that losing what we thought we wanted can clear space for what's truly meant for us—and that midlife transitions, no matter how messy, can become the catalyst for our most profound growth.If you enjoyed this episode, please take a moment to rate, follow, and share The Big Four Oh Podcast. It helps others find the show—and who knows, it might help someone else feel a little less alone in their own midlife transition.Guest ResourcesConnect with Anne on Facebook

Burnout is more than just being tired—it's about finding out the limits of a life that no longer fits. In this solo bonus episode, Stephanie pulls together stories from past guests who pushed themselves to the edge by doing everything “right”—only to discover that success built on someone else's terms can quietly unravel your sense of self.
