1️⃣🌧️ From Celebration to Tragedy

Last weekend, torrential rains in the Texas Hill Country triggered catastrophic flash floods—especially along the Guadalupe River and at the historic Camp Mystic summer camp. The devastation has been heartbreaking: dozens of confirmed deaths, many still missing, and entire communities swept away in a matter of minutes.

Our hearts and prayers go out to everyone impacted.

💜 Here’s how you can support flood-affected Texans—and their pets: In moments like this, controlling what we can control matters most. Be with your loved ones. Volunteer. Donate. Rally behind the rescue and recovery efforts in any way you can. Give blood at the Red Cross, or host a blood drive in your community.

Here are trusted organizations helping on the ground now:

• 🏥 Austin Disaster Relief Network (ADRN) – Preferred method—monetary donations that turn into gift cards for housing, food, and medicine.

• 💧 Community Foundation & Kerr County Flood Relief Fund – Donations directed toward vetted relief organizations operating locally.

• 🐶 Austin Pets Alive! & Kerrville Pets Alive! – Rescued 70+ pets, providing shelter, care, and reunification support. Supplies and financial donations greatly appreciated.

• ♥️ American Red Cross – Supporting emergency shelters, reunification efforts, and mental health services.

2️⃣🚁 Coast Guard’s Scott Ruskan & Team Save 165 Lives

In perhaps the most dramatic rescue effort, Petty Officer Scott Ruskan, a 26-year-old Coast Guard rescue swimmer on his first-ever mission, was deployed to Camp Mystic near the Guadalupe River. Amid flash floods that rose 26 feet in 25–45 minutes, over 200 campers were stranded, terrified, and freezing.

After an eight-hour flight through brutal storm conditions from Air Station Corpus Christi, Ruskan was the only first responder on-site. He took command of triage operations, coordinating groups of 10–15 evacuees at a time and guiding them to two helicopter landing zones. Working with Air National Guard crews, he orchestrated the evacuation of 165 individuals, many of them frightened children.

Despite his newfound fame, Ruskan remains humble: “I’m just a dude… any single rescue swimmer would have done the same.”

3️⃣🐾 Superman the Dog: Debris-Ridden Survivor & Symbol of Hope

Among the many animals rescued was Superman, a dog found perched on flood debris. He was saved, treated, and reunited with his family, becoming a symbol of hope and resilience.

4️⃣🐾 Create Your Own: ‘Buy or Sell With Me, Adopt a Pet For Free’

We’ve partnered with The Asher House to promote pet adoptions and support their incredible sanctuary for dogs in need. 🐶♥️

🎥 Watch this heartwarming video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WgYLj3wrSd8&t=113s

📎 Use the attached flyer to promote this feel-good campaign.

Many coaching clients run a “Buy or Sell With Me, Adopt a Pet for Free” campaign—covering adoption fees for a shelter dog or cat when a client buys or sells a home with them.

💡 Make it your own with a local shelter!

5️⃣📦🏡 Amazon Prime Day — Real Estate Agent Edition!

💡 Pro Tip: Search “real estate open house supplies” under Prime Day Deals.

6️⃣🐋 Prosocial Orcas? Yes, Really

Researchers have documented 34 global cases of killer whales offering prey to humans, suggesting the behavior may be a form of interspecies social exploration or relationship-building.

In most incidents, orcas waited for human reactions before retrieving or abandoning the offered prey, which included fish, birds, and even seaweed, pointing to a deliberate and curious engagement.

The study, published in the Journal of Comparative Psychology, highlights this behavior as part of killer whales’ advanced cognition and social culture, placing them among the few wild predators to show such prosocial tendencies toward humans.

7️⃣🍬 Smarties & Gunpowder? A Sweet Surprise!

Here’s a fun fact for your next trivia night: the classic Smarties candy (yes, the sweet, powdery discs we loved as kids) was originally produced using repurposed pellet machines that once made gunpowder charges during WWII!

After the war, Edward Dee bought one of those machines and converted it to produce candy tablets—and the iconic Smarties were born in 1949. What a twist from explosive to edible!

8️⃣😼 Need a Purr-fect Pick-Me-Up?

Check out this quirky yet soothing tool that’s been winning smiles: Purrli.com. It plays customizable cat purrs—whether you want a playful trill or a soft, sleepy rumble—to calm yourself or even your cat when life gets noisy.

Users report feeling noticeably calmer within just five minutes of listening. One foster mom even shared that three orphaned kittens fell asleep while listening—purring right along with the sound, no mama cat required. And there’s real science behind it: cats purr in the 20–150 Hz range—frequencies that have been shown to reduce stress, improve sleep, and even promote healing.

➡️ Try it now: choose from playful chirps, deep contentment, or alert “I want more pets” purrs.

9️⃣💡 Your Final Friday Thought: Control What You Can, Care Where You Can

As we close out this week’s edition of Fun Friday, we’re reminded—especially in light of the heartbreaking Texas Hill Country floods—that life can change in an instant. There’s so much we can’t control… but there’s also a great deal we can.

🧑‍🧑‍🧒‍🧒 You can control how you show up for your family.
📈 You can control how consistent and committed you are in your business.
📞 You can control how often you reach out to your clients and prospects.
🧠 You can control your mindset, your schedule, and your priorities.

♥️ And you can choose to be someone who helps—whether that’s volunteering your time, sending donations, or simply sharing a kind word or helpful resource. Every effort matters.

If you’re in a position to give, we encourage you to support flood relief efforts through reputable organizations like:

🏥 The Red Cross
🐾 Austin Pets Alive!
🤝 Community Foundation & Kerr County Relief Fund

Even a small act of generosity can become a ripple of hope for someone who’s lost everything.

🚀 If you’re in a position to lead, do so boldly. Your clients and community need you now more than ever.
🆘 And if you’re in a place where you need support, don’t hesitate to ask for it. You’re not alone—we’re here to help.

🌟 Now go out there and control the controllables. Bring your best energy to your people, your goals, and your corner of the world. The difference starts with you. 💙
