What changes do you need to make in your life? Are you procrastinating or jumping into that change eagerly? Change is the only way to make things better, but we're often hesitant to shake things up or fearful that things might actually get worse. How do you face change?Sara and her family are in the middle of a major four-month home renovation. It's very inconvenient when you can't use your own kitchen that long, but it gets a lot easier when they think about how much better their home will be once the work is done. And that is a great metaphor for every effort to make things better for ourselves, our families, our communities, and even our nation. Improvement requires change and change can be hard. But when it comes to the people and the values we cherish most, we must be willing to take risks to make things better. Whether raising kids in this disturbing culture, starting a new business, or getting involved with an important cause, we need to embrace change if we're not satisfied with the way things are. Join Sara as she walks through several of the big changes that have challenged her over the years and made her much stronger.Please visit our great sponsors:Allegiance Goldhttps://protectwithsara.comClick or Call 877-702-7272 to tell them Sara sent you and get $5,000 of free silver on a qualifying purchase.

At the end of every episode, Sara reminds us that each of us needs to stand up, speak out, and find others who will join us in the urgent work of protecting our most cherished freedoms, our precious children, and our very way of life. But what exactly does she mean by standing up and speaking out? What does that look like?She's thought about it a lot. And in the past week, she's given speeches to very prominent groups in Texas and in Washington, D.C. The message is simple but urgent. Everyone must step up to save this nation, and, yes, that means you!Sara shares how our veterans and Gold Star families have given so much to preserve this nation and how she watched members of our Armed Forces giving their last ounce of devotion to their brothers in uniform and the nation they love. We should never sit back and assume our military, some politicians, and prominent activists will fight all of our battles for us. Each of us has a voice and the freedom to speak out about what we believe and why it's important. And we need every single like-minded voice to be part of this fight - not just in the weeks leading up to Election Day but every day of the year.Our freedoms are under assault every day by people and groups who want to uproot the foundations of our great nation. They are not going to stop unless the silent majority becomes the unsilent majority and every single one of us speaks up for what we know is right.Please visit our great sponsors:Allegiance Goldhttps://protectwithsara.comClick or Call 877-702-7272 to tell them Sara sent you and get $5,000 of free silver on a qualifying purchase.

If you speak out against the left's political narrative, you will face a torrent of criticism and hate on social media and beyond. And if you say something nice about Donald Trump, it will be especially unhinged. But if what you say is true, don't worry about the hysteria. In fact, you should consider it a badge of honor.Siggy Flicker is a spokeswoman for Jexit, an organization working to convince Jewish voters that the Democrats are actively working against their interests here at home and to undermine Israel on the world stage. Earlier this week, she wrote a Truth Social post praising Trump for moving the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and defending Israel's control of the Golan Heights and the West Bank. Trump later "re-truthed" her post, which led to the left's avalanche of hate.Flicker, whom you might also remember from "The Real Housewives of New Jersey," joins Sara to explain how she does not care about the backlash because she cares far more about the future of our nation and the security of Israel. Let that be a lesson for all of us!

There is a war on truth. Every day, we see the media peddling the false talking points of their political allies and treating the truth as a lie or even a danger to society. But unlike centuries ago or even a few decades ago, we have the ability to speak our minds and make sure people hear the truth. Think of the leftist narratives that got blown up because the truth got out: from the Russia hoax to COVID policy to the demonization of high school student Nick Sandmann.And that's why it's more important than ever to speak the truth and to speak up for the right to free speech, especially as the FBI and other government entities worked to stifle online speech to benefit certain narratives or its political allies. There's a reason free speech is part of the First Amendment in the Bill of Rights. We cannot give an inch, and every time you speak the truth and don't give in to the people trying to cancel you, you strengthen free speech for the rest of us.Please visit our great sponsors:Allegiance Goldhttps://protectwithsara.comClick or Call 877-702-7272 to tell them Sara sent you and get $5,000 of free silver on a qualifying purchase.

Are you looking for strategies to strengthen your donor relationships? Or how to overcome some of the many challenges nonprofits are facing today? In today's episode, we chat with Dr. Mark Scott from the Oishei Foundation, an organization dedicated to strengthening and supporting nonprofits. We dive into how his organization provides support for nonprofits and discuss new demands and challenges nonprofits are facing around staffing shortages, competition with the corporate sector, and the struggle to find good help. Plus, Dr. Scott gives us some strategies to help overcome these obstacles. He also talks about how nonprofits can be more realistic with their overhead costs when submitting grant proposals to funders and how to build better relationships with them. He gives great strategies for strengthening these donor relationships like taking small relationship-building actions over time and how this can help your organization succeed and better serve your community. This episode is full of practical tips nonprofit leaders can take action on today.   About Dr. Mark Scott: Mark joined the Foundation in January 2022 to lead Oishei's philanthropic support practice that is designed to strengthen and support the WNY nonprofit ecosystem. He works closely with Foundation staff to enhance the capacity and work of grantee organizations and community partners. He oversees the Foundation's initiatives in leadership development, network building, and convening, most notably the Karen Lee Spaulding Oishei Fellowship for Leaders of Color, Community Conversations for Leaders of Color, and the Oishei Leader program. Mark holds a Ph.D. in Organizational Leadership and Policy, an MBA from Niagara University, and a BS in Hotel, Restaurant, and Institutional Management from Cheyney University in Cheyney, Pennsylvania, the nation's oldest Historically Black College & University (HBCU).   Episode Summary: In this episode, you will learn strategies for strengthening donor relationships and overcoming obstacles in the nonprofit sector, like: Providing support for nonprofit organizations (8:20) Building capacity in your communities (12:05) New demands nonprofits are currently facing (15:00) Overcoming challenges of not being able to find good employees (18:35) Being realistic with overhead costs in grant proposals (22:45) Making the funding process easier (29:05) Tips for nonprofits to build better donor relationships (34:45)   Teasers: “But what we are finding is that because nonprofits stepped up and they had become so heavily dependent on government resources during the COVID pandemic period, they have kind of lost their way.” “Nonprofits really need unrestricted support.” “People are doing nonprofit work and not being paid a living wage. So it's like helping to fight poverty, but being in poverty themselves because they're not making a living wage.” “When we play with the ask, we perpetuate this vicious cycle of undercutting the work.” “If you build that relationship over a period of time, and you don't always have to ask, the funder will see it.”   Huge thank you to our sponsor!

The media lies to you. All the time. Sometimes they tell you things that aren't true. And sometimes they bury the truth and ignore the stories that matter most. Just today, Bill Melugin of Fox News reported that more than 2,200 people illegally crossed into the U.S. at Eagle Pass, Texas - just since midnight. These people poured into our nation with impunity, bypassing the port of entry right there by the Rio Grande. Instead, they break the law, knowing that our government won't stop them and won't send them back.At least eight million people have come here illegally since Joe Biden became president and made it crystal clear that he was rolling out the welcome mat and had no intention of enforcing our laws. Will Biden pay a political price for this? Perhaps. But you are paying for it right now! You pay for it as the government spends your tax dollars housing and feeding the illegal immigrants, providing medical care for them, and educating the children who came illegally. And the social safety net goes much further than that.You also pay for it with a rise in crime, as attacks on people and property soar out of control in many different cities and towns across our nation. And of course, you pay for it when your kids and neighbors take that one fake pill laced with fentanyl and are suddenly lost forever.Join Sara as she explains the real cost of President Biden's dereliction at our border.Please visit our great sponsors:Allegiance Goldhttps://protectwithsara.comClick or Call 877-702-7272 to tell them Sara sent you and get $5,000 of free silver on a qualifying purchase.

The left would love to take away your most cherished constitutional rights. And they're openly trying to do it. They call free speech dangerous "misinformation" that they must limit. They call free expression of faith "hate speech." And now we have the governor of New Mexico putting a "temporary pause" on Second Amendment rights in her state. Meanwhile, the left has no interest in enforcing actual law - from our wide open border to the dystopian nightmare in many of our cities. It's time to demand better!Sara welcomes former Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich to address the ongoing Biden administration dereliction of duty in protecting our nation and how that permissive mindset is allowing criminals to assault, steal, and destroy with impunity while law-abiding citizens are forced to stay in their homes to avoid becoming the next victims. Brnovich explains how the decision by Soros-backed prosecutors to ignore nuisance crimes is creating a culture where criminality is accepted instead of condemned.Sara and Brnovich also chat about their mutual interest in the emerging UFO revelations and what might come next.Please visit our great sponsors:Allegiance Goldhttps://protectwithsara.comClick or Call 877-702-7272 to tell them Sara sent you and get $5,000 of free silver on a qualifying purchase.

Sara is just back from a trip to New York City. The city is swamped with more than 100,000 illegal immigrants sent there from Texas. This is an issue in many communities around the nation, and those communities are especially overwhelmed in the schools as they try to make room for all these migrant kids.But schools are failing across our country. And they are failing for many reasons. Seeking Educational Excellence Executive Director Charles Love joins Sara to explain what's at the heart of the problem. Love says Americans are dealt an irrecoverable disadvantage when they're constantly taught that America is bad. Not only is it dead wrong but it is corrosive to our national fabric. He says students are also immensely damaged when they are taught to think of people as groups instead of individuals.Most immediately, Love says every kid is getting shortchanged because teachers have to spend so much time helping students catch up to where they should be and the other kids get neglected. Love also explains what needs to be done to save our schools so we can rescue our kids' futures.

Are you sick of politicians and the media lying to you yet? In big story after big story, the left and their allies in the press either ignore the facts or gaslight us on the facts. And sometimes there are direct threats to the people bringing the truth to light.Here are just two examples. House Republicans are opening an impeachment inquiry into allegations that Joe Biden and members of his family were making millions of dollars as he influenced U.S. policy in Ukraine. Congress also heard stunning testimony recently about what our government knows about Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP), more commonly known as UFOs.But instead of admitting those things, the spin, lies, and intimidation are rampant. You see Democrats claim the GOP is considering impeachment simply because Biden's son has battled addiction. Witnesses at the UAP hearing admitted they've received death threats for trying to bring the truth to light.Florida Rep. Anna Paulina Luna joins Sara to discuss the work Republicans are really doing, why the left and the media are determined to confuse or straight-up lie to the public, and much more. Sara and Rep. Luna also discuss the congresswoman's brand new book, "The Legend of Naranja."Buy the Book here: https://bravebooks.us/products/the-legend-of-naranjaSara on the Devin Nunes Podcast: https://www.devinnunes.com/listenPlease visit our great sponsors:Allegiance Goldhttps://protectwithsara.comClick or Call 877-702-7272 to tell them Sara sent you and get $5,000 of free silver on a qualifying purchase.

Whats Up Folk! Welcome to the podcast, in todays episode we get into the following: (1) A quick brief on whether or not Dillon Danis may be going to far with his promo for his upcoming fight with Logan Paul (2) Is Diddy really giving back his artist publishing right out of the goodness of his heart? (3) It is alleged that "Brick Woman" may have gotten ANOTHER scam off on the people with the alleged assault that took place. Apparently she ran the same play in 2020. (4)A conversation I had with a homegirl made me think about what does a relationship truly gain when one partners always say no to the other partner when they know one partner enjoys something sexually, i.e Giving Head lol(5)#WylinAlert #WylinAlert I was talking to a couple today and them folk asked me if i wanted to be "A Known Donor", at 23 that would've went in one ear and out the other. At 32, thats a totally different thought! Which makes me think about what its like to have babies with women you barely know or even like, yikes! (6) Watching "Top Boy" over the weekend made realize the mentality between Americans and Europeans when it comes to gun possession after a scene where Sully did a home invasion to retrieve stolen drugs.

This week we recap on the first week of school and discuss how kid social interactions have changed post pandemic (particularly for kids who were school aged during the height of it). Have you ever considered how remote learning impacted children's social skills? Picture this, a young student, fresh from a year of remote learning, navigating the trials and tribulations of the playground. We travel through this terrain on Seeking Different, delving into the intricacies of making friends in these "post pandemic" times. We examine the pressure kids feel to form friendships quickly upon their return to school and how playtime, a critical component of relationship-building, has changed due to the restrictions imposed by this pandemic.Now, let's shake it up and zoom in on family structures. Ever thought about the awkwardness a single parent might face in the PTA meetings or the innocent curiosity that comes from a child being raised in a diverse family structure? We face these queries head-on with candid conversations about single-parenting and diverse family structures that break the traditional mold. We share firsthand experiences, like the gaffe of a school principal assuming a random man as a mom's "better half" and a classmate's unique experience of having two moms. We stress the importance of acknowledging and accepting these myriad family structures and discuss how to best navigate conversations about family diversity with children. Join us for this powerful exploration of modern family life.Support the show

It's been 22 years since Al Qaeda terrorists hijacked four planes and smashed two of them into the World Trade Center and another into the Pentagon. Heroic passengers fought back on the fourth flight to bring it down in a Pennsylvania field. It's a horrific event that changed so many lives in profound ways - and Sara is among them.One way Sara's life changed was moving to the nation's capital to write for the Washington Times. She embedded multiple times with American forces in Afghanistan and also managed to land an interview with Afghani warlord Abdul Rashid Dostum. Sara walks through this memory in vivid detail, what Dostum told her, and how it helped her understand the dynamics in play in Afghanistan on a much deeper level. It's a story you'll only hear from Sara Carter.Please visit our great sponsors:Allegiance Goldhttps://protectwithsara.comClick or Call 877-702-7272 tell them Sara sent you and get $5,000 of free silver on a qualifying purchase.

Sustaining your organization's mission requires a strategic approach to fundraising, especially in an increasingly competitive nonprofit world. Hence, implementing a sustainer program is a decisive step toward financial stability, long-term sustainability, and a more significant impact. By building a base of committed sustainers, your nonprofit can secure its future, amplify its mission, and make a lasting difference in the world. So, if you haven't already, it's time to consider why your nonprofit needs a sustainer program and take the necessary steps to establish one. In today's podcast, Stephen King from GrowthForce and Steven Halasnik from Financing Solutions (https://financingsolutionsnow.com/) discuss “why your nonprofit needs a sustainer program- improve donor retention by 80% in the first year”.  

This summer, we saw explosive congressional testimony about Unidentified Aerial Phenomena, the official name for UFO's. Witnesses not only discussed inexplicable technology but also claimed our government is in possession of these advanced vehicles - some of which contained biological evidence of non-human pilots. So what's next?Today, Sara is joined by Nick Pope, who headed up the United Kingdom's UFO Project, to discuss what additional revelations or other information might be contained in the upcoming National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). They also consider whether the government is trying to reveal the truth to the public slowly or whether there is a bureaucratic turf war over what to release and how to explain it.Please visit our great sponsors:Allegiance Goldhttps://protectwithsara.comClick or Call 877-702-7272 tell them Sara sent you and get $5,000 of free silver on a qualifying purchase.

When kids were forced to do school from home during the pandemic, parents across the U.S. got a rude awakening about what their kids were being taught. While many teachers were good, we were horrified to see some trashing America at every turn. Others were implementing the tenets of Critical Race Theory and lessons seemed to be everywhere telling kids of all ages that they could change their genders. Add in absurd COVID restrictions when the kids finally went back to school, and it was more than Sara and many other moms and dads could take.Sara and her husband, Marty, enrolled their youngest child in a public school when they first moved to Texas. But this year, they switched to a private Christian school. Today, she explains why they made that decision and reminds us that our children are our greatest treasures. We cannot just send them to be indoctrinated for hours per day and hope they turn out OK. She also offers encouragement for parents who are not in a position to afford private education.There is a war for the minds of our children. And it's one we have to win.Please visit our great sponsors:Allegiance Goldhttps://protectwithsara.comClick or Call 877-702-7272 to tell them Sara sent you and get $5,000 of free silver on a qualifying purchase.

The Biden administration and far-left prosecutors in New York and Atlanta are using the justice system to target political opponents. Donald Trump is the most prominent example, but the left is taking aim at conservatives across the board - often over perfectly legal speech and conduct. The goal is to chill conservative speech and activism and to prevent us from speaking out about what the left is doing to our nation.Former Trump campaign attorney Jenna Ellis is among the 19 people charged in Atlanta. She promises a vigorous defense in court but she warns that the left isn't all that worried about winning these cases because gobbling up the time and financial resources of conservative defendants is a victory for them as well.Ellis also addresses being denied funds for her legal defense by Save America PAC because of her decision to support Gov. Ron DeSantis in 2024 instead of President Trump. She explains why her preference for a different candidate in a different election should not change the fact that these charges are connected to her work for Trump. But Ellis also has a strong message for Gov. DeSantis.Don't miss this story of a corrupt prosecution that not only endangers the freedoms of Ellis and her former colleagues but threatens to irreparably damage the justice system that helps to hold our society together.Please visit our great sponsors:Allegiance Goldhttps://protectwithsara.comClick or Call 877-702-7272 to tell them Sara sent you and get $5,000 of free silver on a qualifying purchase.

Donor-advised funds are an incredibly efficient vehicle available to individual investors and family offices who desire to make a long term philanthropic impact. Jodi Rosen, chief development officer at Vanguard Charitable, joins WealthChannel's Andy Hagans to discuss the amazing growth of donor-advised funds, and Vanguard Charitable's first 25 years.

Small towns like New Braunfels, TX make America the greatest country on Earth. Very few places can claim to have a rich history, vibrant community, and citizens who watch out for each other like this town does. This should be something worth protecting. Our leadership in Washington doesn't see it that way. Foaming at the mouth for more power and money, both parties are choosing cheap labor and votes over little towns like New Braunfels.Fortunately, not every member of Congress is willing to play along with this scheme. On today's show, Sara interviews Republican Texas Rep. Chip Roy, who represents New Braunfels in Congress. Rep. Roy lays out his plan to force House GOP leaders to adopt stricter enforcement policies and restore order on our southern border by withholding funding for agencies like the Department of Homeland Security. With the weight of the House Freedom Caucus behind him and our immigration crisis getting worse by the day, Roy feels they can no longer wait to demand change.Roy also tells Sara why it is time for DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas to be impeached.

Historian, Author, and Educator Jasmine Holmes joins Latasha Morrison on this episode of the Be the Bridge Podcast to talk about her books, her Instagram classroom, and her own educational journey. They both share the crucial moments in their journeys of this work and how pivotal having a community of Black women has been to them. Latasha touches on the trauma that comes from BIPOC not having pain recognized in church and not being seen or heard in predominantly white faith spaces. And together they lament the stronghold white supremacy has on the United States. They dive into the untold stories of Black missionaries and what voices are not highlighted in classical education. As bridge builders, we can bring truth to the revisionist history happening and bring dignity to the stories often misrepresented.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is now standing trial. This isn't a trial in a normal court system, though. It's an impeachment trial, brought by his own party. His fate will be decided by a jury of 31 senators. The Republican-controlled Texas House of Representatives voted to have him removed from office in a narrow vote of 121 to 123. His accusations include taking bribes, and using his office to help a donor. If he's convicted on any of the 20 articles brought against him, he'll then face a second vote to block him from holding any public office ever again. In other news, the United Nations has a new plan to advance its climate change agenda. It has issued a call for children to sue their country's leaders on climate change. Here to speak with us about this is Alex Newman. He's an award-winning international journalist and Epoch Times contributor. And in other news, COVID-19 is still mutating. The new variant has arrived, just in time for the rollout of a new vaccine, and just in time for election season. And just like the last presidential election, there's a call for the return of COVID mandates. Here to speak with us about it is Dr. Scott Atlas. He's a senior fellow at Stanford's Hoover Institution, a former White House adviser on the Coronavirus Task Force, and an Epoch Times contributor.   ⭕️
