The list of world-class cyclists that have come out of the Durango Devo junior cycling program is astounding. Christopher Blevins is on a tear and is currently leading the UCI XCO overall. Riley Amos crushed the XC U23s last year. Sepp Kuss made a name for himself shepherding Jonas Vingegaard through the mountains and then went on to win a Grand Tour himself, and Quinn Simmons' aggressive attacks made headlines during this year's Tour de France. So today, we catch up with Durango Devo co-founder Chad Cheeney to find out what the secret is to consistently turning out some of the best bike riders in the world.RELATED LINKS:Durango DevoBlister Mountain Bike Buyer's GuideGet Our Free Newsletter & Gear GiveawaysBLISTER+ Get Yourself CoveredTOPICS & TIMES:Culture & Passion (1:43)Paying Attention to Kids (3:15)OG Durango XC History (3:35)Athletes Having Kids (5:50)What is Durango Devo?

September's Locked On Disco will be here shortly. You may have seen that for the past few months I've been putting the finishing touches to my debut album The Gift which is coming out in October. And the first track Maybe I'm gay is now available everywhere.Maybe I'm gay is on Apple Music.And you can stream on Spotify. The Gift journeys through protest, grief, joy, and self-acceptance. From the bold defiance of Maybe I'm Gay, to the intimate title track The Gift, the playful EDM-lite Not Just Friends, and the revelatory Hello God :-), the album explores what it means to live openly, vulnerably, and authentically. It's not a disco album.  But there's plenty of tunes to move to. And I hope to be moved by.Created in collaboration with AI tools, The Gift is both an act of self-discovery and a creative experiment — a reminder that music can be a mirror, reflecting who we are and what we hope to become.In this latest short podcast interlude I share my journey to creating Maybe I'm gay including all previously unreleased versions and demos.  Hopefully it will be an interesting insight into the inner workings of the latest AI music technology.More importantly, all proceeds from the album will go to Alzheimer's Research UK.  Dementia is the UK's leading cause of death, with 982,000 people currently affected — a number expected to rise to 1.4 million by 2040. Globally, the World Health Organisation estimates 57 million people live with dementia, with nearly 10 million new cases every year.Every play, every download, every share of 'Maybe I'm gay' brings us closer to a cure for dementia. Please join in.Thank you.  XX F

Raising Money for the Hollieguard App

What do you do when your financial goals clash with the people closest to you? This week, we’re diving into the messy, emotional side of shared finances, from property co-ownership drama to parenting across two households with totally different money vibes. First up: one listener is trying to build a future with her partner, but there’s a major catch... he owns a home with his sister, and she’s not ready to move on. We unpack what happens when family, finances, and real estate get tangled, and how to protect your relationship (and your sanity) when it’s time to move forward. Then, we get into a dilemma so many of you will relate to: how do you teach kids good money habits when they’re growing up between two completely different financial worlds? We talk boundaries, budgeting, and how to raise financially savvy humans without starting a family feud. Plus, we’ve got everything you need to kick off your weekend right: Your favourite money wins and confessions, broke tips you'll want to steal and all the unhinged chats you love.

Should you invest in branding, OR, should you invest in fundraising?  What creates greater impact for your cause?  The answer often depends on who you ask. There are plenty of fundraising consultants who will tell you that investing in brand is a useless exercise, and all you need to do to be successful is invest in fundraising. Buy more direct mail. Spend more on paid ad programs. Hire more consultants. Do more events. If you're not careful, you'll invest in a grab bag of tactics that may not move the needle for you on revenue.

Talking about money with kids can feel awkward, but it matters more than most parents realise. In this episode, Dr Justin Coulson is joined by Ish Co, Managing Director of Kit – a pocket money app by the Commonwealth Bank. Together, they unpack how to teach kids under 10 the foundations of money management. From delayed gratification to understanding digital money, this is a must-listen for any parent wanting their kids to grow up financially savvy. KEY POINTS: Kids learn most about money from parents, not schools. Conversations, role modelling, and real-life experiences build financial literacy. Key lessons for kids under 10: saving, understanding interest, delaying gratification, and learning how earning works. Use cash with younger kids to make money tangible, but transition to digital tools as they grow. Pocket money works best when it’s regular, not random. Automation can help teach saving and spending habits without the parent constantly managing it. The average pocket money for 8–10-year-olds is $7.30 per week, but the amount matters less than the learning opportunity it provides. Use money conversations to teach kids about choices, consequences, and even charity. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE: “Being good at money isn’t about having lots of money. It’s about using money as a tool to live the life you want.” RESOURCES MENTIONED: Hey Kit – a pocket money app and card for kids (by Commonwealth Bank) Moneysmart.gov.au—Australian Government financial literacy tools for families ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS: Start talking about money early—age 5 and up. Model good money behaviours—saving, budgeting, and mindful spending. Use pocket money (even small amounts) to teach saving, spending, and giving. Make money visible: show account balances before and after spending to teach the concept in a digital world. Link money to goals—whether it's saving for a toy, a holiday, or something bigger. Don’t shut down questions about money—turn them into meaningful conversations. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Teaching them that I think is a core money principle." - Rachel RodgersMoney coach and mother of four Rachel Rodgers shares invaluable insights into raising financially literate children through practical, everyday lessons. With intentional parenting, she teaches her kids three essential money principles: consistency in showing up daily, entrepreneurial thinking that values their natural talents, and honoring commitments through negotiation. Her eight-year-old son's technical abilities and daughter's artistic talents become opportunities to discuss value creation, while family negotiations—like trading good behavior during photo shoots for video game time—reinforce the importance of keeping your word in financial dealings.Beyond basic money lessons, Rodgers creates an immersive financial education environment by including her children in adult conversations about business strategies and investments. Walking with her CFO husband, they openly discuss marketing decisions and investment properties while their daughter soaks in real-world financial wisdom. This transparent approach to wealth building, coupled with repetitive exposure to money conversations, is cultivating the next generation of financially empowered leaders—with her eldest daughter already showing signs of future business acumen that will one day lead the family empire.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter
