We need to talk about an emerging reality that virtually all of my clients are telling me is their number one challenge right now. Everyone is already dealing with multiple threats to federal funding. But now there's the additional reality that all the chaos and uncertainty at the federal level – from budget craziness to wildly fluctuating tariff policies – is destabilizing other funding sources. State and local government funding, foundation grants and corporate funding are all affected.As nonprofit leaders we're fighting for our federal funding, and now we're realizing that many of our other funding sources are facing headwinds as well. This has some very specific implications for our advocacy strategy. We need a way to get all of our funding decisionmakers to commit to continuing their full support for our work. And we have to deal with all of that at once.In this episode, we share:The number one strategic imperative in the fight for your federal funding in particularWhat's on all funding decisionmakers' minds right now, and why we need to shift their perspectiveThe two perspective shifts we must get decisionmakers to makeWhy your usual approach to messaging is unlikely to get the job doneThe three-part messaging equation that will help you succeed with every type of funderI'm preparing to launch a group coaching program that will focus specifically on helping you craft messaging that will shift decisionmakers' perspectives and get them on board with sustaining and even expanding your funding. This will be a coaching opportunity for a limited number of people to come in and be part of a group. There'll be some training, but most of it will be coaching and helping you to get your messaging dialed in so that you can address this pressing need. What I'm seeing right now is there's nothing more important than this. If that sounds like something you'd like to be a part of, message me through the podcast website or on LinkedIn. I look forward to hearing from you!

"There have been literally thousands of years of breeding and living with animals to optimise these kinds of problems. But because we're just so early on with alternative proteins and there's so much white space, it's actually just really exciting to know that we can keep on innovating and being far more efficient than this existing technology — which, fundamentally, is just quite inefficient. You're feeding animals a bunch of food to then extract a small fraction of their biomass to then eat that.Animal agriculture takes up 83% of farmland, but produces just 18% of food calories. So the current system just is so wasteful. And the limiting factor is that you're just growing a bunch of food to then feed a third of the world's crops directly to animals, where the vast majority of those calories going in are lost to animals existing." — Seren KellLinks to learn more, summary and full transcript.In today's episode, host Luisa Rodriguez interviews Seren Kell — Senior Science and Technology Manager at the Good Food Institute Europe — about making alternative proteins as tasty, cheap, and convenient as traditional meat, dairy, and egg products.They cover:The basic case for alternative proteins, and why they're so hard to makeWhy fermentation is a surprisingly promising technology for creating delicious alternative proteins The main scientific challenges that need to be solved to make fermentation even more usefulThe progress that's been made on the cultivated meat front, and what it will take to make cultivated meat affordableHow GFI Europe is helping with some of these challengesHow people can use their careers to contribute to replacing factory farming with alternative proteinsThe best part of Seren's jobPlenty moreProducer and editor: Keiran HarrisAudio Engineering Lead: Ben CordellTechnical editing: Dominic Armstrong and Milo McGuireAdditional content editing: Luisa Rodriguez and Katy MooreTranscriptions: Katy Moore

We sat down with Brooke Deason. Brooke is absolutely living the dream - she's followed career opportunities that took her from a small country town to Spain where she currently lives and works in the pharmaceuticals industry. Not only does Brooke have a successful career, she also knows how to live life to the fullest. She doesn't let society's ideas of what a 35year old woman should be doing dictate her choices, she lives life on her own terms. We chat to Brooke about:How she has gone against society's ‘typical' scripts and why she wouldn't live life any other wayWhat is unconscious bias and how might it be unexpectedly influencing the choices you makeWhy it's completely okay to not want kids and why shouldn't be a taboo subject Why we all need to stop and ask ourselves who we are living our lives for“At the end of the day I didn't want to wake up when I was 70 and be thinking, I could have lived in Spain, I could have been learning a different language, I could have been seeing things that don't exist in our country and experiencing all these weird and wonderful things” - Brooke DeasonIf you want to learn more about unconscious bias you can check out this article.If you want to connect with Brooke you can find her on LinkedInWant to continue the conversation?

On today's show, I talk with John Kaag, an American philosopher and writer, and the author of the book “Sick Souls, Healthy Minds: How William James can save your life.” John talks about Covid-19 and how it is both forcing us to ask challenging questions like “What am I going to do with my life?” and “What is my purpose?" while also affording us the time and space to reflect on these questions.John also shares his experience of recently surviving a massive heart attack at age 40, and what that experience has taught him about living the best life possible while facing mortality. We discuss the connection between emotion and activity, and why the Nike slogan “Just Do It” is more profound than might first appear.I encourage you to stay through to the end when we get into a discussion about the importance to go “All in” in life, if you want to flourish.IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:Why emotion is tied inextricably to action and what that means for finding happinessThe key role that habit plays in both helping us and hindering us from achieving happinessWhy the Nike slogan “Just Do It” is more profound than first appearsThe importance of going “all in” in life if you want to flourishHow we create meaning in life through the choices and decisions we makeWhy we should do something difficult each dayWhy we'll never find the “ultimate” answers in books of philosophersBOOKS AND RESOURCESSick Souls, Healthy Minds: How William James Can Save Your Life by John KaagHiking with Nietzsche: On Becoming Who You Are by John KaagAmerican Philosophy: A Love Story by John KaagDiscover CMC Markets, the ultimate platform for online trading on mobile and desktop.CONNECT WITH JOHN KAAGTwitter: @johnkaagWebsite: https://johnkaag.com/GET IN TOUCH WITH SEAN MURRAYSean's Twitter AccountSean's LinkedIn AccountEmail: Sean@TheInvestorsPodcast.comWebsite: RealTime Performance, Inc.Weekly Newsletter: RealTime Performance NewsletterHELP US OUT!Help us reach new listeners by leaving us a rating and review!
