“You can't play chess with people who only own checkers because you both end up playing connect four and that's a child's game- and I no longer want to play children's games.” Ryan Clark  Has this week been our Biggest Pivot? It's been an interesting and difficult at times for The Pivot Family, we lost Channing's father and have been trying to navigate life as various things have come our way. Ryan experienced a heightened media frenzy as he expressed his take on certain topics with RG3, culturally and with family, which ultimately led him to open up on his approach when using his voice and the responsibility that comes with having a platform. We also address recent accusations about our Bill Belichick show and Channing's clears the air on comments he made about Jordon Hudson's involvement while Ryan disclosed how our conversation truly took place. And we get back to the business talking about all the hottest headlines and biggest storylines in sports from Travis Hunter wedding to prenups to the reality of WNBA and our NBA Finals picks. The guys discuss the WNBA and how the league may be at elevated popularity because of Caitlin Clark, but there are so many stars and talented players which is truly making the game so much more fun and popular to watch. We get into the NBA finals, key players to watch and who the two teams left will be and how that affects the league and ratings. We get a few laughs as we talk about prenups, break down the viral best man speech and how we would handle these situations if it was us! And as we close out our conversation, we pay tribute to Randolph Crowder Sr as Channing reflects back on his final days with his father and how this loss has affected his outlook on life as he honors the man his dad Big Randy represented. Thank you Pivot Family for rocking with us and knowing that we will always hold each other accountable and operate with integrity no matter what popular opinion may be.

NB2A's Kevin Asato on Supporting Black Brewers in Tough Times; Yonder Cider's Caitlin Braam Speaking to Many Audiences

National Black Brewers Association (NB2A) executive director Kevin Asato explains how obstacles have mounted for the trade group's members as diversity, equity and inclusion efforts have come under fire during the Trump administration.    “The beautiful thing is, I was Black yesterday. I'm Black today. And god willing I wake up tomorrow, I'll be Black tomorrow,” he said. “The point being, just because there isn't a tagline like DEI available, doesn't mean our challenges and our need for diversity and our need to help our Black brewers in this space has gone away. Nothing has changed. Not a single thing has changed for our space here.”   Asato shares with Brewbound managing editor Jess Infante how the NB2A is supporting its 86 Black-owned brewery members and its nearly 400 overall members during a special bonus edition of the Brewbound Podcast. He also explains why equipment donations have been key for up-and-coming Black breweries, teases ancient grain fonio's potential inclusion in Volume 3 of the Black is Beautiful collaboration efforts and talks about why some retailers are doubling-down on diverse brands.    Following the conversation with Asato, Yonder Cider founder Caitlin Braam joins Brewbound senior reporter Zoe Licata to explain how experimenting with events at her brand's taproom has broadened her hard cider brand's consumer base.    A shared taproom partnership with craft beer brand Bale Breaker has also helped Yonder breakthrough with new audiences, she explains. It's all about “not being exclusive” and “making spaces and places for various audiences, not just one.”   “There isn't just one audience for your brand. There are many. And you have to find ways to talk to them each individually,” she said.   Both conversations were recorded during the 2025 Craft Brewers Conference in Indianapolis.

Is God building another testimony for you, through your workplace? Often, hard times come in our work, and we're called to respond as a Christ-follower. Not react with fear, self-pity, anger, resentment or push-back. But with a keen sense and trust that God is sovereign in our work. That He may have brought something to an end, for His Glory, not our punishment.  So how about YOU? .... Are YOU going through a hard time at work? And if you are, how are you responding?  We recommend first taking it to prayer, and asking the Lord what He wants you to know about the situation, how you can grow from it, and what does he want you to do next, for His glory?  Then take some time and pray for those you work alongside for the tough time they are going through too.

Guests Marianne Bellotti | Greg Wilson Panelist Richard Littauer Show Notes In this episode of Sustain, host Richard Littauer talks with Marianne Bellotti, author of *Kill It with Fire, *and Greg Wilson, co-founder of the Carpentries, about what happens to your code when you leave your job and how to make sure it survives. They discuss their new paper, "10 quick tips for making your software outlive your job (https://arxiv.org/abs/2505.06484)," and share practical strategies for protecting, documenting, and sustaining code in open source, research, and civil service environments. Whether you're preparing for a job change or want to future-proof your work, this conversation offers real-world advice for developers and researchers alike. Hit the download button now! [00:03:04] Greg and Marianne talk about challenges in code sustainability. [00:05:46] Greg speaks about how scientists often prototype rather than build production quality code. [00:09:48] We start with Step 1 in the paper: “Consider your threat mode.” Greg explains the different plans needed for individual vs. systematic departures, Marianne speaks about the importance of understanding code lifecycle-some code has a “fruit fly” lifespan others a “tortoise” one, and Richard adds to think about reframe threat modeling around future usefulness. [00:15:53] There's a discussion on Step 2: “Get sign-off on releasing it publicly.” [00:21:30] Greg discusses Step 3: “Choose an open license” and emphasizes to stick to well-known licenses (MIT, BSD), don't write your own, and he shares a funny story. [00:25:29] Richard talks about Step 4: “Put your code somewhere safe” and shares to upload code to GitHub, Codeberg, OSF, Zenodo, etc. Greg suggest peer-to-peer methods like torrents could help long-term preservation and Marianne emphasizes the importance of verified identities when sharing. [00:29:21] Marianne introduces Step 5: “Document your code.” Greg shares that most documentation goes unread and LLMs could help mine useful documentation from conversation records and Marianne emphasizes to focus on “how to run it” first and tests are a part of your documentation. [00:35:17] Step 6: “Make your code reproducible.” Greg and Marianne discuss using tools like Docker, uv for Python lockfiles, etc., for dependency management. [00:36:23] Step 7: “Make your code citable” and Step 8: “Encourage community adoption.” Richard mentions to add a CITATION.cff file so others can cite your code and Greg mentions a great book he read that changed the way he viewed this called, Marketing for Scientists, by Marc Kuchner. [00:38:49] Step 9: “Write a succession or sunsetting plan.” Marianne shares to define success and failure criteria for projects explicitly. [00:40:36] Step 10: “Talk about what you're doing.” Greg emphasizes to celebrate and grieve project endings properly and Richard encourages listeners to check out the paper, read it, and if you see something missing you can contribute back. [00:43:12] Fnal thoughts from Greg and Marianne: Organize collectively to protect science and code sustainability and find your team. Quotes [00:12:10] “Weapons begin as toys.” [00:14:09] “All code is throwaway code.” [00:27:34] “Sooner or later every library burns.” [00:29:44] “Most documentation is never read by anybody because it's not answering the questions that you actually have.” [00:41:05] “Take some time to celebrate and to grieve.” Links SustainOSS (https://sustainoss.org/) podcast@sustainoss.org (mailto:podcast@sustainoss.org) richard@sustainoss.org (mailto:richard@sustainoss.org) SustainOSS Discourse (https://discourse.sustainoss.org/) SustainOSS Mastodon (https://mastodon.social/tags/sustainoss) SustainOSS Bluesky (https://bsky.app/profile/sustainoss.bsky.social) SustainOSS LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/company/sustainoss/) Open Collective-SustainOSS (Contribute) (https://opencollective.com/sustainoss) Richard Littauer Socials (https://www.burntfen.com/2023-05-30/socials) Marianne Bellotti (Medium) (https://bellmar.medium.com/) Marianne Bellotti LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/bellmar/) Greg Wilson GitHub (https://www.linkedin.com/in/greg-wilson-a26510b6/?originalSubdomain=ca) Greg Wilson LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/greg-wilson-a26510b6/?originalSubdomain=ca) “10 Quick tips for making your code last beyond your current job” (draft) (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jk0R8VL8lq1-LIbW9D5qwCkvxfXEobP0-RqSYF-4Io4/edit#heading=h.2ijt9lezevm3) Kill It With Fire by Marianne Bellotti (https://nostarch.com/kill-it-fire) Marketing for Scientists: How to Shine in Tough Times by Marc J.

Send us a textThe crushing weight of depression doesn't just affect the person diagnosed—it transforms marriages, reshaping how partners interact and survive together. Having walked this path ourselves, we're pulling back the curtain on what it truly takes to support a spouse battling the darkness of depression.Tabatha shares her 12-year journey through severe depression that began in childhood following her father's death and experiences with abuse. The physical manifestations—debilitating migraines, panic attacks, insomnia—became as real as the emotional pain. Yet after finding spiritual healing at 24, she's experienced over two decades of complete freedom from these symptoms."Depression isn't occasional sadness—it's getting stuck, becoming debilitated by it," Tabatha explains. "It's not something you can simply snap out of." This misunderstanding often leads to shame and isolation for those suffering.Ken reveals his own unexpected battle with depression following church leadership challenges and betrayal from those close to him. During this dark season, Tabatha became his bridge to healing—not by forcing him out of depression, but by supporting his vision when he couldn't see it himself, gathering resources to help him move forward, and giving him space when needed.We explore the powerful connection between unforgiveness and depression, sharing how forgiveness became the key that unlocked Tabitha's healing. The spiritual dimensions of depression often go unaddressed in clinical settings, yet we've witnessed countless breakthroughs when both spiritual and natural interventions work together.For those supporting a depressed spouse: speak life, not criticism. Understand their root struggles. Take spiritual authority over the situation while addressing practical needs. Build your own support system so you don't become depleted. And never stop believing that complete healing is possible—because we've lived it.If depression has invaded your marriage, join us for this episode filled with hope, practical wisdom, and the promise that depression doesn't have to be a life sentence.

In this episode of The First Day from The Fund Raising School, host Bill Stanczykiewicz, Ed.D., welcomes back the legendary Kay Sprinkle Grace to tackle a critical topic: staying resilient in fundraising during turbulent times. Kay emphasizes that the nonprofit sector becomes even more essential when the world feels shaky. She reminds fundraisers that their steadiness provides the strength communities crave, and that their role is to radiate hope, not hoard anxiety. Rather than surrendering to fear, she calls on leaders to embody "radical amazement," seeing each day and each impact as a phenomenal gift. Kay highlights a key shift: nonprofits shouldn't just "diversify" during hard times, they need to solidify. By collaborating with like-minded organizations and reinforcing their core missions, nonprofits can weather the storm stronger together. She shares the powerful story of New Orleans' AIDS organizations banding together after Hurricane Katrina, a vivid example of unity and resilience. Fundraisers, she says, must anchor their work not in scarcity, pleading for help because things are bad, but in abundance, celebrating and showcasing the transformative impact they already have. In tough times, abundance is the secret sauce that keeps the spirit, and donations, flowing. Zooming in on individual fundraisers, Kay throws down some real-world advice: don't be a lone wolf marooned at your desk. Seek community, lean on coaching, and don't be shy about asking for help. Self-care isn't a luxury; it's survival. She warns that harboring anger corrodes resilience and stresses that fundraisers must live the very values they champion. And if your organization becomes a hot mess of broken values and endless negativity? Be brave enough to fix it, or walk away with your spirit intact. Wrapping up, Kay and Bill shine a light on the enduring power of nonprofits through decades of crises, from the civil rights movement to economic downturns to global disasters. In the end, resilience is about renewal: the beautiful dance between stability and change, anchored by purpose and sprinkled with radical joy. Nonprofits are here not just to exist, but to solve problems, and by standing together, focusing on mission, and celebrating the good, fundraisers can be the steady, luminous force their communities need most.

Understanding what it really means for a nonprofit to be financially successful—and no, it's not just about the size of your bank account. Beth Larsen, VP of Client Accounting and Advisory Services at JMT Consulting, explains.Financial success, Beth explains, is fundamentally about “whether or not you have the resources to fulfill your mission effectively.” It's a mindset shift from passive accounting to active financial management, where success is defined by the ability to match your assets to your mission-driven activities.Beth digs into how nonprofits can and should assess their financial health by tracking three core metrics: monthly operating results, available unrestricted cash, and current ratio. She emphasizes that these metrics aren't just nice-to-have—they're essential to making real-time strategic decisions and maintaining stability in uncertain economic times.“Most nonprofits are dealing with demand that far exceeds available resources,” she shares. “That means decision-making must be rooted in data and aligned with mission, not just money.”The conversation moves from theory to practice, with Beth advocating for a solid financial foundation built on clean data, clear processes, and internal discipline. She outlines actionable best practices like having written financial procedures, separation of duties, automated systems, and integrated budget planning that includes development and operations.Host Julia Patrick and Beth also reflect on their past experiences during the 2008 recession—where both faced impossible decisions around shelter programs and fundraising gaps—and draw relevant lessons for today's leaders.Whether your nonprofit is flying blind with checkbook accounting or wrestling with boardroom fear around financial topics, Beth's calm, strategic approach lights a clear path forward. Her message is both urgent and empowering: “You can't afford not to do this work.”Timestamps:00:00:00 – Welcome and Introduction to Beth Larsen 00:03:44 – What Financial Success Really Means for Nonprofits 00:05:19 – Navigating Resources vs. Demand in Tough Times 00:08:39 – Best Practices: Build a Financial Foundation 00:10:42 – Budget Strategy and Data Categorization 00:13:33 – How Strong Systems Reduce Fear and Confusion 00:17:10 – Balancing Mission with Financial Realities 00:20:38 – The Three Key Metrics You Must Track 00:24:26 – Moving From Checkbook Management to Smart Strategy 00:26:10 – Improving Communication Around Financials 00:28:52 – Finance as a Journey, Not a Checklist 00:30:12 – Innovate 2025 Conference Preview #NonprofitFinance #MissionDrivenData #StrategicStewardship Find us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

There is no denying we are in an extraordinarily tough season.  When things feel heavy and hard for an extended period of time, it's easy to feel a sense of constriction in our thoughts, mental health, and worldview.  It's easy to fall into a funk.  And, it can feel impossible to pull ourselves out of it.   During challenging seasons, it is crucial that you maintain a growth mindset. While it's important to acknowledge what is happening in the world around us, it is also critically important to maintain habits that allow you to tap into hope and possibility regularly.  If all you feel is constriction during hard seasons, you run the risk of shutting down completely. This doesn't serve you or anyone else.  Tapping into your growth mindset is going to be the superpower that allows you to keep going.   In this episode, I outline six practical strategies to help you advance a growth mindset, including collecting the correct evidence, tracking small wins, staying in motion, leaning on the right support system, recognizing harmful narratives, and giving yourself permission to practice self-compassion through rest and restorative activities.   Episode Highlights: 00:00 Introduction to Growth Mindset in Tough Times 02:23 Understanding Growth vs. Fixed Mindset 06:06 Six Ways to Improve Growth Mindset 12:12 Tracking Small Wins and Staying in Motion 15:34 The Importance of the Right Support System 18:22 Noticing and Changing Your Narratives 21:11 The Power of Rest and Self-Compassion Links Mentioned: Hire me to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with me: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?
