Conscious Eco-Giving

Nonprofit organizations work tirelessly for the better good and they depend on donations from you and me to fund their programs. But giving is not equally distributed: in 2021, just 3% of all donation dollars went to environmental and animal welfare organizations (source).

While we do indeed have the power to use every dollar we earn for change, giving can be confusing. There’s a massive difference between a worthy cause and a solid nonprofit and so on today’s show I’m giving you the tools you need to find a quality charity that speaks to your heart. I’m also suggesting 7 environmental charities worthy of our hard-earned donations.

Here’s a preview:

[5:00] Stay away from these shell non-profits, PACs, and misinformation funnels

[7:45] It’s a minefield out there! How to vet a nonprofit like a boss

[19:00] Environmental catch-all orgs do an awful lot. Here are two of the best

[21:00] Care about animals? I’ve got you!

[24:00] Want to remove carbon from the atmosphere?  2 nonprofit recs

How To Let Stuff Go

When we let go of what doesn't serve us, we remove weight that holds us down. On today's show we turn to Zen Buddhism for wisdom on letting go of anxiety about the future, grudges, stuff, dead relationships, and more.

Here's a preview:

[4:00] Insanely anxious about the future? (Me too!) Don't spend your energy worrying; do this instead

[12:00] Think of decluttering not as throwing stuff away; think of it instead as setting your stuff (and yourself!) free

[19:00] How to let go of lost friendships and relationships, straight from the mouths of Buddhist monks

[26:00] Holding a grudge requires vast amounts of energy so become skilled at forgetting

[34:00] You're going to get to where you're meant to go, so there's no need to second-guess your choices
