In our premiere episode of The Generosity Experience, we start with a powerful reminder from Abby Jarvis: 96.9% of donors give under $5,000 annually. What does that reveal about the everyday donor—and why does it matter? Abby breaks it down in our first “Big Number” segment.
Then, Tim Sarrantonio sits down with Rachel D’Souza, founder of Gladiator Consulting, to explore the idea of reciprocal generosity. Sparked by a hallway conversation at AFPICON, Rachel unpacks how generosity becomes transformational when it’s mutual—not just monetary. From small habits that lead to big change to her favorite “generosity recipe,” Rachel brings both clarity and heart.
We close with a reflection on The Generosity Spectrum—where theory meets tools—and a preview of what’s to come in future episodes.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
