AI is evolving faster than most of us can comprehend. And for many people, it's creating a very real fear about the future. If machines can outthink us and eventually outwork us, what does that mean for our careers, our purpose, and even our identity?  Perhaps an even better question is: what does it mean to be human in the age of AI? Today, I'm joined by Jeff Burningham. Jeff is an entrepreneur, investor, and author who has built more than a dozen companies valued at over a billion dollars and recently released his powerful new book, The Last Book Written by a Human: Becoming Wise in the Age of AI. Unlike most conversations about AI that focus on productivity, efficiency, or making more money, Jeff explores something much deeper: how AI can actually help humanity reconnect with wisdom, presence, empathy, and the qualities that make us uniquely human. In our conversation, Jeff explains why AI is not just a technological disruption, but a spiritual challenge and a mirror reflecting humanity back to itself. We talk about fear, optimism, consciousness, emotional regulation, and why wisdom—not intelligence—may become the most valuable human trait moving forward.  If you've felt uncertain or overwhelmed about where humanity is headed, this episode will challenge the way you think about both AI and yourself. KEY TAKEAWAYS Why AI Forces Us To Reevaluate Humanity Why AI Is A Spiritual Challenge For Humanity The Human Qualities AI Can Never Replicate Jeff Addresses The Fears People Have About AI Fear vs. Optimism In The Age Of AI Using AI As A Bridge Back To Human Connection How To Use AI Wisely And Mindfully The Real Challenge Facing Humanity Right Now The Choice Is To Focus On Who You Choose To Be Simple Questions That Reveal Your Awareness What Jeff Hopes Readers Take Away From His Book The Conversation About AI Humanity Needs To Have  Get The Full Show Notes To get full access to today's show notes, including audio, transcript, and links to all the resources mentioned, visit MiracleMorning.com/639 Subscribe, Rate & Review I would love if you could subscribe to the podcast and leave an honest rating & review.

Kate Casey dives into Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage by Belle Burden. In March 2020, Burden was at her family's Martha's Vineyard home navigating the early days of the pandemic when her husband of twenty years announced, without warning, that he was leaving her. In the memoir, she revisits their marriage, searching for clues that her husband was not who she always thought he was, and reckons with her own family history and the expectations placed on women in the face of betrayal. Kate breaks down this week's episode of The Real Housewives of Rhode Island.

Ray first appeared in “Harlem Shuffle,” and the final book of the trilogy, “Cool Machine,” will be published in July.

Today we're exploring the impact of ultra-processed foods on young people. One of the big reasons ultra-processed foods have become so widespread is convenience. They offer quick, easy meals for people short on time - and few groups are more time-pressed than parents trying to feed young children. But does this convenience come at a cost? I'm joined by Harvard professor Dr Andy Chan, whose research is helping us understand how early exposure to ultra-processed food can shape future health.

If your sales are slow and your effort isn't producing results, this episode is exactly what you need. Ray Higdon breaks down the 10 specific reasons why people aren't buying from you — and these aren't the generic tips you've heard before. From not talking to enough people, to focusing on your solution instead of your prospect's problem, to the often-overlooked mistake of sending a video that's completely incongruent with your invite, Ray exposes the real friction points that are quietly killing conversions for network marketers and salespeople at every level. Ray also goes deep on the belief barriers that most sales trainers never address: what to do when you secretly don't believe your product will work, when you're unsure of its value, or when you don't feel like you deserve the income you're chasing. He covers the critical role of posture, why sloppy follow-up is costing you more sales than any objection ever could, and how a mismatched social media bio can send prospects running before you even get to your pitch — sharing a real client example of Christie Morgan, who generated $100,000 in personal commissions in under 60 days once her outreach and bio aligned. The episode closes with one of the most powerful — and most ignored — sales principles: mental rehearsal. Ray challenges you to stop rehearsing failure and start visualizing the win, connecting this mindset shift to both elite athletic performance and a foundational scripture from Mark 11:24. If you're in a product or service you believe in, this episode is your reminder that getting better at selling isn't optional — it's your responsibility. —

Diane Comer is a writer, teacher, and co-founder of Intentional Parents International. She has been married for 47 years to Phil, who just completed 50 years in full-time ministry, and together they have 4 grown children, now 8 with “in-laws”, and 9 grandchildren. Diane heard and immediately embraced the Gospel for the first time when she was 15 during the “Jesus Movement” days. She wrote He Speaks in the Silence, finding intimacy with God by learning to listen, about going deaf in her 20's, which reflects her life message of undeserved grace and redemption. She also wrote Raising Passionate Jesus Followers, about what they have gleaned and learned from the Scriptures on how to bring children into a real, vibrant walk with God.Resources:Learn more about Intentional Parents International:https://www.intentionalparents.org/aboutFollow Intentional Parents:Instagram: @intentional_parentsBooks by Diane Comer:He Speaks in the SilenceRaising Passionate Jesus Followers

If you're one of God's highly sensitive feelers, you're spiritually wired to pick up what others completely miss! When the atmosphere shifts, dreams turn symbolic, and emotional pressure hits — God's sensitive feelers are the first to recognize that He's revealing something deeper. And listen … God doesn't hand His deep secrets to just anyone on a silver platter. He entrusts His prophetic vessels who will steward His Word with purity, carry His heart, feel with compassion, discern quickly, and carry spiritual sensitivity like a mantle, not a burden!

This week on Hashtag History, we will be discussing the second part of the Watergate Scandal. In last week's episode, we left off with the White House Plumbers that Nixon had recruited to serve as his secret task force to stop any potential leaks—not actual plumbing leaks, but leaks like the 7,000 pages of Pentagon Papers that exposed just how much the US Government had been lying to the American people about our involvement in the Vietnam War. Where we left off with last week's episode was Nixon getting increasingly paranoid about being exposed, about perhaps not getting re-elected to the presidency, and about damaging his reputation. And so he became hell-bent and willing to go to extreme lengths to ensure that did not happen.In this week's episode, we are officially going to be discussing Watergate: the details of the actual operation to wiretap the Democratic National Committee's headquarters, the investigative journalism that exposed this all, the cover up, the federal investigations, the Supreme Court's involvement, and then, of course, talks of impeachment and Nixon's official resignation…the only president in American history to ever resign….because you can do that.Follow Hashtag History on Instagram @hashtaghistory_podcast for all of the pictures mentioned in this episode.Citations for all sources can be located on our website at www.HashtagHistory-Pod.com.

Learn about the Healing Power of Prolonged Fasting: HEREWhat if the one food you've been told to avoid isn't always the problem, and when prepared the right way, could actually support your healing?In this episode, Dr. Katie Deming brings back Monica Corrado, a traditional foods educator, author, and ancestral nutrition expert to dig into what's actually true about dairy, cancer, and the gut.They break down the difference between the dairy you'll find on grocery store shelves and the kind traditional cultures prepared for centuries. They cover everything from Holstein cows versus traditional brown cows, to A1 versus A2 casein, to why raw milk dairies may be held to stricter safety standards than conventional pasteurized dairy.You'll also find out why some people feel sick after trying raw milk for the first time, and why that reaction may have more to do with drinking too much of a potent, microbially live food too quickly than with the milk itself.Chapters:00:06:08 - Why Modern Dairy Changed00:07:18 - The Problem With Store Dairy00:08:24 - The Dairy That May Heal00:09:12 - The Raw Milk Difference00:10:05 - How Culturing Removes Sugar00:11:18 - Why Raw Milk Scares People00:15:21 - How Milk Quality Got Lost00:18:11 - Drinking Dead Bacteria00:20:29 - A1 vs A2 Dairy00:24:19 - What Better Dairy Looks Like00:26:09 - Making Dairy Cancer Friendly00:30:08 - The IGF-1 Question00:36:10 - Why Kefir Is DifferentDr. Katie also shares what she's observing in her own practice about IGF-1 levels in patients who are eating long-cultured dairy, a question her fasting community has been asking about for a long time.By the end, you'll understand what kind of dairy may support your microbiome, why long culturing matters, and how Monica recommends making yogurt or kefir at home.Press play and learn how an ancient food you may have written off could become one of the most overlooked tools in your healing toolkit.Chef Monica's Books: https://simplybeingwell.com/2nd-ed-gaps-complete-bookJoin Dr. Katie's 3-Day Guided Fast, for expert support, daily live calls, and a community to fast alongside: Sign-Up Follow Dr. Katie Deming on InstagramWatch on YoutubeDISCLAIMER: The Born to Heal Podcast  is intended for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for seeking professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

The blatant control Israel exercises over the American government has gotten to the point now  where even some of the most hardcore defenders of that foreign state are starting to turn. With the NDAA announcement that the US and Israeli militaries are essentially merging and with the humiliation ritual carried out recently in Israel where various countries groveled to the Jews and their God, we have reached a turning point. That point is precisely where numerous countries have found themselves in the past. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

"When we sleep, a spinal fluid washes over our brain and gets rid of a peptide called beta-amyloid which is implicated in the Alzheimer dementia process. So if we're not getting enough sleep on a regular basis, we really do suffer the consequences later on." In this Best of Series episode, we replay a chat I had in 2019 with Executive Sleep Guru, Dr Carmel Harrington, on the myths and factors of sleep that drive optimal health, joy and performance.

Send us Fan MailFIRST HALF: A Toms River, NJ Councilman, Tom Nivison, who plays banjo in a bluegrass band that's fronted by a transgender "woman" and claims he's a Republican, is leading the charge to block a gun range, restaurant, and entertainment complex being built, because he doesn't like guns. Apparently, he's in a transition of his own, politically speaking.. Police in Des Moines, Iowa, chide the entire peaceable citizenry of their city after a concealed carrier lawfully defended himself against a mugger. It seems their spokesman believes that only cops should carry guns and shoot bad guys and was offended that some lowly citizen beneath him was able to actually defend himself without help from the police.SECOND HALF:  The pushback against gun control in Virginia by multiple Commonwealth Attorneys General and local Sheriff's is gaining support and momentum amongst multiple others in law enforcement and the judicial system, and the Democrat communists are aghast and flabbergasted that such a thing would happen, and they're demanding those patriots change their minds!Support the showGiveSendGo | Unconstitutional 2A Prosecution of Tate Adamiak Askari Media GroupBuy Paul Eberle's book "Look at the Dirt"Paul Eberle (lookatthedirt.com)The Deadly Path: How Operation Fast & Furious and Bad Lawyers Armed Mexican Cartels: Forcelli, Peter J., MacGregor, Keelin, Murphy, Stephen: 9798888456491: Amazon.com: Books

Matt Wilson speaks at a Renew gathering about how the church has sidelined masculinity, the cultural forces that softened men, and why the church must actively disciple and equip men to be courageous, loving defenders of truth.

On this episode of Left of Str8 Show Interviews, Scott Fullerton talks with Linus O'Brien, director of Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror, about the documentary exploring the creation, legacy, and lasting cultural power of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Linus shares personal reflections as the son of creator Richard O'Brien, plus insight into how Rocky Horror became a global phenomenon of music, rebellion, LGBTQ identity, audience participation, and chosen community.The speaker reflects on how his father's personal expression, intended for himself, unexpectedly resonated with audiences on a deeper level, creating a form of "personal growth" for listeners. He discusses how the songs and the spirit behind them struck a chord, regardless of the original intent. The video also touches on the idea of "70s sci fi movies" and "dark star 1974," evoking a sense of "nostalgia" for "forgotten sci fi movies."Watch Left of Str8 Interviews every week for smart, funny, and heartfelt conversations with LGBTQ creatives, straight allies, entertainers, authors, musicians, filmmakers, and changemakers.
