Jenny: Inclusive capital advocacy.The future of regulated investment crowdfunding is being shaped not just by markets but by the voices that advocate for fair, effective policies in Washington. Jenny Kassan, President of the Crowdfunding Professional Association (CfPA), has emerged as a leading champion of this work. The association's upcoming summit and the advocacy efforts that precede it illustrate the growing momentum behind this movement.Jenny explained, “The Crowdfunding Professional Association represents the crowdfunding industry, the regulated investment crowdfunding industry. This is everyone who's involved in trying to make it easier for small businesses, entrepreneurs, changemakers, artists, everyone who has the ability to offer an investment opportunity to be able to offer it to everybody, everybody in the country.”The October summit in Washington, D.C., highlights the growing traction of this movement. Jenny shared that this year, the CfPA is securing more meetings with members of Congress and the Senate who influence financial market rules. That progress signals a growing recognition of the industry's role in democratizing access to capital.Speakers at the summit will include SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce, known for her balanced approach to fostering innovation while maintaining sensible regulation, and James Murphy from FINRA, the body overseeing day-to-day regulation of crowdfunding platforms. These perspectives, alongside industry leaders like Mark Elenowitz, will help issuers, investors, and platforms better navigate the complex regulatory landscape.Jenny was candid about the rapid changes unfolding in this space, especially around emerging technologies like crypto. “The industry is really evolving quickly. Even though there haven't been any law changes yet, there's been a huge, huge evolution and rapid change in the space,” she noted. Panels on crypto and digital assets will explore how innovation intersects with regulation, underscoring the importance of ongoing dialogue with policymakers.The CfPA summit is more than a conference. It is the culmination of months of advocacy, uniting stakeholders to strengthen the rules that govern investment crowdfunding. By convening entrepreneurs, investors, regulators, and industry professionals, the event will serve as a platform to share knowledge, influence policy, and build momentum for greater capital access.Jenny's leadership highlights that regulated investment crowdfunding is still young but brimming with potential. Her efforts—and those of the CfPA—help ensure the system grows into a tool that works for everyone.tl;dr:Jenny Kassan explained how the Crowdfunding Professional Association advocates in Washington to strengthen rules for regulated investment crowdfunding.She shared details about the upcoming summit, including meetings with legislators, regulators, and key industry experts.Jenny emphasized the importance of balanced regulation, highlighting insights from SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce and FINRA's James Murphy.She described how crowdfunding empowers underrepresented entrepreneurs, often outperforming traditional fundraising sources like venture capital and banks.Jenny encouraged participation in the CfPA and its summit, reminding listeners that inclusive access to capital benefits everyone.How to Develop Inclusive Capital Advocacy As a SuperpowerJenny described her superpower as her ability to advocate for inclusive access to capital. She explained that her passion lies in helping entrepreneurs—especially those underrepresented in traditional finance—gain the resources they need to thrive. As she put it, “We see like women, people of color, people that don't come from the top schools or from wealthy families often are quite successful with regulation crowdfunding, sometimes even more so. That's the reason I love the tool so much.”Her superpower is evident in her consistent championing of entrepreneurs who face barriers to traditional funding. By focusing on regulated investment crowdfunding, she empowers founders to bypass gatekeepers and reach communities of investors who share their vision.One story illustrates this clearly: Jenny highlighted data showing that diverse and under-resourced founders often raise more successfully through crowdfunding than through venture capital, angel groups, or banks. That success proves that crowdfunding levels the playing field. For Jenny, seeing women and people of color outperform traditional fundraising norms affirms the power of her mission.Jenny offered valuable insights for developing this superpower:Recognize who is excluded by traditional systems and design new ways to include them.Focus on building tools and structures that make participation easier for everyone.Ground advocacy in data that demonstrates success outside the status quo.Persist in championing change even when mainstream systems resist.By following Jenny's example and advice, you can make inclusive capital advocacy a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Um homem investe tudo o que tem numa pequena oficina. Trabalha dia e noite, inclusive dormindo na própria oficina. Para poder continuar nos negócios, empenha as próprias joias da esposa. Quando apresentou o resultado final de seu trabalho a uma grande empresa, dizem-lhe que seu produto não atende ao padrão de qualidade exigido. O homem desiste? Não! Volta à escola por mais dois anos, sendo vítima da maior gozação dos seus colegas e de alguns professores que o chamavam de "visionário". O homem fica chateado? Não! Após dois anos, a empresa que o recusou finalmente fecha contrato com ele. Durante a guerra, sua fábrica é bombardeada duas vezes, sendo que grande parte dela é destruída. O homem se desespera e desiste? Não! Reconstrói sua fábrica, mas um terremoto novamente a arrasa. Essa é a gota d'água e o homem desiste? Não! Imediatamente após a guerra segue-se uma grande escassez de gasolina em todo o país e este homem não pode sair de automóvel nem para comprar comida para a família. Ele entra em pânico e desiste? Não! Criativo, ele adapta um pequeno motor à sua bicicleta e sai às ruas. Os vizinhos ficam maravilhados e todos querem também as chamadas "bicicletas motorizadas". A demanda por motores aumenta muito e logo ele fica sem mercadoria. Decide então montar uma fábrica para essa novíssima invenção. Como não tem capital, resolve pedir ajuda para mais de quinze mil lojas espalhadas pelo país. Como a idéia é boa, consegue apoio de mais ou menos cinco mil lojas, que lhe adiantam o capital necessário para a indústria. Encurtando a história: hoje a HONDA é um dos maiores impérios da indústria automobilística, conhecida e respeitada no mundo inteiro.

Um homem investe tudo o que tem numa pequena oficina. Trabalha dia e noite, inclusive dormindo na própria oficina. Para poder continuar nos negócios, empenha as próprias joias da esposa. Quando apresentou o resultado final de seu trabalho a uma grande empresa, dizem-lhe que seu produto não atende ao padrão de qualidade exigido. O homem desiste? Não! Volta à escola por mais dois anos, sendo vítima da maior gozação dos seus colegas e de alguns professores que o chamavam de "visionário". O homem fica chateado? Não! Após dois anos, a empresa que o recusou finalmente fecha contrato com ele. Durante a guerra, sua fábrica é bombardeada duas vezes, sendo que grande parte dela é destruída. O homem se desespera e desiste? Não! Reconstrói sua fábrica, mas um terremoto novamente a arrasa. Essa é a gota d'água e o homem desiste? Não! Imediatamente após a guerra segue-se uma grande escassez de gasolina em todo o país e este homem não pode sair de automóvel nem para comprar comida para a família. Ele entra em pânico e desiste? Não! Criativo, ele adapta um pequeno motor à sua bicicleta e sai às ruas. Os vizinhos ficam maravilhados e todos querem também as chamadas "bicicletas motorizadas". A demanda por motores aumenta muito e logo ele fica sem mercadoria. Decide então montar uma fábrica para essa novíssima invenção. Como não tem capital, resolve pedir ajuda para mais de quinze mil lojas espalhadas pelo país. Como a idéia é boa, consegue apoio de mais ou menos cinco mil lojas, que lhe adiantam o capital necessário para a indústria.

Istrouma Baptist Church (ASC) Sep 7, 2025 ========== September 7 - Field Guide Welcome! We're glad you've joined us today for our Sunday morning worship service! For more information about Istrouma, go to istrouma.org or contact us at info@istrouma.org. We glorify God by making disciples of all nations. ========== Connection Card https://istrouma.org/myinfo Faithful to the Task 1 Timothy 4:1-10 1 Timothy 4:1-16 Now the Spirit expressly says that in later times some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons, through the insincerity of liars whose consciences are seared, who forbid marriage and require abstinence from foods that God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, for it is made holy by the word of God and prayer. If you put these things before the brothers, you will be a good servant of Christ Jesus, being trained in the words of the faith and of the good doctrine that you have followed. Have nothing to do with irreverent, silly myths. Rather train yourself for godliness; for while bodily training is of some value, godliness is of value in every way, as it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come. The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance. For to this end we toil and strive, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe. Command and teach these things. Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity. Until I come, devote yourself to the public reading of Scripture, to exhortation, to teaching. Do not neglect the gift you have, which was given you by prophecy when the council of elders laid their hands on you. Practice these things, immerse yourself in them, so that all may see your progress. Keep a close watch on yourself and on the teaching. Persist in this, for by so doing you will save both yourself and your hearers. 1. False teachers Progressive Christianity - Reject the inerrancy and authority of the Bible. - Reinterpret sin through the lens of human experience. - Downplay the exclusivity of Christ for salvation. - Downplay the reality of Satan, demons, and hell. - Dismiss biblical sexual parameters and gender distinctions. 2.

The recent bond rout calms but deeper concerns about the global fiscal picture keeps bond yields at multi-year highs. We hear from Commerzbank CEO Bettina Orlopp who says markets should closely monitor government responses.

This episode is a big one, because I'm grappling with a massive question myself: to persist or walk away? Sound familiar? Whether it's a project, a job, a relationship, or even a long-held goal, we all face moments where we wonder if we should keep pushing or call it a day. I'm actually trying to decide the future of this very podcast – do I continue, rebrand, or wrap it up completely? It's a huge decision, and one that traditionally comes with a lot of baggage. We've been told for generations that perseverance is the ultimate virtue, and giving up is a sign of "pitiful weakness". I've even dug into some old newspaper archives from as far back as 1862 and 1934 to show you just how deeply ingrained this idea is! But what if I told you that sometimes, walking away can be incredibly wise and courageous? And that sometimes, persisting can actually be a sign of being stubborn, blinkered, or even complacent? In this episode, we're flipping the script on those old notions. I'm sharing how to identify the red flags that tell you it might be time to change direction – like when a path no longer aligns with who you truly are, or when you're just feeling stuck and surviving instead of thriving. And we'll also explore the green flags that signal when "giving up" is actually a positive, transformative step, like having the courage to explore new avenues and letting go of the trap of worrying about "sunk costs" – all that effort you've already put in. We'll even dive into Angela Duckworth's concept of 'grit' and how our identity plays a huge part in these decisions. So, let's clear out all those preconceived ideas about what we 'should' do and figure out, together, when it's truly time to persevere and when it's time to boldly walk away. I'd love to hear your thoughts on my own podcast dilemma too! Grit: The Power or Passion and Perseverance by Angela Duckworth

LEITURA BÍBLICA DO DIA: LUCAS 18:1-8 PLANO DE LEITURA ANUAL: SALMOS 94–96; ROMANOS 15:14-33 Já fez seu devocional hoje? Aproveite e marque um amigo para fazer junto com você! Confira: Em 1917, Ann Cone emocionou-se ao ser aceita numa das escolas de design de moda mais renomadas de Nova Iorque. Mas ao chegar para matricular-se, o diretor da escola não queria aceitá-la. “Para ser franco, Sra. Cone, não sabíamos que você era negra”, disse-lhe. Recusando-se a sair, sussurrando orou: “Por favor, deixa-me ficar aqui”. Vendo sua persistência, o diretor permitiu que ficasse, porém não permitiu que entrasse na sala de aula para brancos. Ela assistia a aula do lado de fora da porta “apenas para ouvir”. Talentosíssima, Ann se formou seis meses antes e atraiu clientes da alta sociedade, incluindo a ex-primeira-dama Jacqueline Kennedy, cujo vestido de noiva mundialmente famoso foi desenhado por ela. Ann fez e refez o vestido, buscando a ajuda de Deus, pois teve problemas com o encanamento em seu estúdio, arruinando o primeiro modelo feito. Persistência como essa é poderosa, especialmente na oração. Na parábola de Jesus, uma viúva perseverante implorava por justiça a um juiz corrupto. A princípio, ele a recusou, mas como estava se irritando, decidiu “fazer-lhe justiça” (LUCAS 18:5). Com muito mais amor, “Deus não fará justiça a seus escolhidos que clamam a ele dia e noite?” (v.7). Jesus afirma que fará (v.8). Conforme Ele nos inspira, oremos com perseverança e jamais desistamos. Em Seu tempo e modo perfeito, Deus nos responderá. Por: PATRICIA RAYBON

Episode Summary: From middle school cliques to corporate boardrooms, patterns of competition, division, and survival strategies among women persist. Here's the thing though: this isn't about a flaw in women; it's about a flawed system. In this episode of the Advancing Women Podcast, we explore the rise of Queen Bee Syndrome and the "Pick-Me" phenomenon, and what pop culture, psychology, and gender bias research reveal about why these patterns exist, and how we can challenge them. We dig deep into: The cultural roots of Queen Bee and Pick-Me behaviors Internalized sexism, patriarchal bargaining, and the male gaze The myth of women as each other's worst enemy Strategies to disrupt toxic narratives and build true solidarity It's time to move from scarcity to solidarity, from competition to coalition—and rewrite the narrative with the persisterhood at the center. Key Takeaways: “Pick-Me” behavior isn't vanity, it's often survival in biased systems. Queen Bee Syndrome isn't about women being mean, it's about navigating tokenism and structural barriers. Internalized sexism and societal “shoulds” fuel division. Systemic bias, NOT women, is the root issue. Solidarity is the antidote to scarcity. Call to Action: Let's stop shaming Queen Bees and Pick-Me girls and start fixing the systems that pit women against each other. Let's write a new chapter grounded in persisterhood, because together, we rise further.

This is the evening All Local update for July 25, 2025.
The past few days in the saga of Donald Trump's court trials have felt less like legal proceedings and more like a high-stakes national drama, with major developments piling up almost daily. Let's dive right into the action, because there's hardly time to catch your breath with what's unfolded.The most electrifying headline landed when a federal appeals court delivered a decisive blow to Donald Trump's latest order aimed at ending birthright citizenship. According to NBC4 News, it was a two-to-one decision out of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco, where the judges ruled President Trump's executive order unconstitutional. This case was brought by multiple states hoping to block the order, which sought to deny citizenship to children born in the U.S. to parents who are here either temporarily or without documentation. Not only did the court uphold the nationwide block on Trump's policy, but it firmly pointed to the 14th Amendment, which grants citizenship to all born or naturalized in the U.S. The judges emphasized the chaos that would ensue if birthright citizenship applied in only half the country, a scenario they found unacceptable. With the Supreme Court recently limiting wide-ranging injunctions, there was question as to whether this one would stand, but the court found this case did meet a rare exception. The battle isn't over, though. The matter is almost certainly headed to the Supreme Court, so expect tensions—and legal wrangling—to rise.Meanwhile, in New York, Trump's criminal cases are anything but quiet. The New York Court system's official records confirm Trump was sentenced in January 2025 in People v. Donald J. Trump. This case, spearheaded by District Attorney Alvin Bragg, centered on falsifying business records, and although the audio of sentencing made waves earlier this year, it's been a running theme as Trump and his legal team continue to file appeals. Most recently, they've made efforts to remove Bragg's state prosecution to federal court, but that push hasn't gotten traction, facing rejections and denied permissions all the way up to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.On a separate but equally crucial front, the Supreme Court itself figures prominently. Just this week, the high court dealt with emergency stay applications related to Trump administration cases, as documented in official opinions. One particularly notable action: the Supreme Court granted a stay in Trump v. Boyle, temporarily blocking a lower court's ruling that had threatened executive power within the administration. The justices pointed to their approach in a recent case, Trump v. Wilcox, indicating ongoing tension between lower courts and the executive branch in these speedy legal maneuvers.For broader context, the Trump Administration Litigation Tracker from Lawfare Media shows that there are now over 300 active legal challenges tied to executive action or resistance to state laws. These include everything from national security orders to challenges over immigration and civil rights. With dozens of Supreme Court interventions, it's made for a dizzying calendar even seasoned court watchers struggle to follow.Thanks for tuning in to this whirlwind account of Donald Trump's ongoing trials and appeals. Come back next week for more coverage, as these legal turns are far from over.

Rebecca opens up about being a "serial class taker" with too many interests and no clarity, and how a vivid childhood memory shaped years of climbing the professional ladder solely for approval and validation.We explore Rebecca's journey of learning to tune into her "loud body" as an internal navigation system, discovering her identity as an emotional projector, and shattering limiting beliefs about being bad at decision-making and never finishing things. She shares practical insights about setting boundaries at work, asking for help, overcoming shiny object syndrome, and building self-awareness to course-correct when slipping into old patterns. Rebecca also discusses launching her beautiful multipotentialite business, moving through comparison mode, and learning to build an aligned venture in strategic phases while honoring how all her past experiences now weave together perfectly to support her new path.ABOUT REBECCARebecca is the Creator, Editor, and Curator of Compassionate Contrarian, a website and blog dedicated to cultivating knowledge and power in changemakers, wellness seekers, and curious souls.
