As a young girl, Mithali Raj never imagined that her morning routine of following her brother to cricket practice would change the course of her life. I had the pleasure of speaking with Mithali on the Creative Development podcast as she shared her journey—from those early morning sessions to becoming the highest run-scorer in women’s cricket history. Her story is a powerful lesson in leadership, resilience, and the importance of investing in potential. She gives an honest take on her experiences—including the setbacks along the way that shaped her into the leader she is today. We also explore the evolution of women's cricket and why more girls need to play sports.

Today is #WorldWaterDay, a reminder that protecting our water resources is more critical than ever. 🌍 Plastic pollution threatens ecosystems, communities, and economies, with millions of tons of plastic waste entering our waterways each year. In #Romania, TeraPlast Global is tackling this issue head-on, recirculating 80%+ of its water, integrating 30% recycled materials, and leading the transition to a circular economy. With support from IFC’s blue finance framework, financial institutions like Banca Transylvania are funding businesses that prioritize sustainable water management and responsible plastic production. On this #WorldWaterDay, we highlight how #BlueFinance is reshaping industries to safeguard our planet’s most precious resource: water. http://wrld.bg/QfIt50Vm7UL IFC Financial Institutions
