Educated in psychology and philosophy, Holly Hall is a renowned psychic and master astrologer. She combines that background with neuro-linguistic programming, powerful intuition, and direct contact with the universal consciousness to help thousands of clients tap into the universal collective mind. “My favorite aspect in astrology is the fact that I can see into the depths of your soul simply by looking at the chart,” Hall says. “The chart is the map of the sky the day, the place, and the moment you were born. I strongly believe in past lives as the Buddhists and Hindus do. Therefore, knowing your path and healing your soul in order to evolve is important.” Through studying the works of scientists like Nassim Haramein and Gregg Braden, Hall has formulated an understanding of how the universe speaks to whom we are and why we are here. She has training in past-life regression, astrology, and life coaching, and she uses her talents to help people stay on track, navigate future plans, strategize business and career choices, heal relationships, and better understand others.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

In 2012, during travelling in another country, S Jones discovered (from a room mate) she would constantly sleep talk. This led Jones to investigate what she was dreaming about at night, from here she discovered the endless entertainment of dreams for the first time in her late twenties. One of the dreams would involve her living a whole life as a man, up until his 40s. One day, Jones shifted her conciousness and found herself in interstellar space in a space vehicle with a heightened IQ and around 3,000 years in the future. This is one of a hundred stories that Jones shares in her "I SAW THE FUTURE" book. Jones started creating a dream journal to track their dreams in 2013. Within five years of focusing on her dreams, Jones was recalling up to five dreams a night. This led to many meditation sessions where Jones was able to shift consciousness into another being in the future. Jones shares this dream journal for purchase for others to benefit from, see "How to remember your dreams".Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

In this episode, Adam and I take a deep dive into when you actually shouldn't hit driver—because despite what modern analytics say, there are times when it makes sense to leave it in the bag. We talk through how to evaluate risk vs. reward off the tee, why certain holes (like tight doglegs and pinched fairways) punish driver, and how to make smarter decisions that protect your score. Adam also shares one of his best breakdowns of beginner fundamentals—grip, ball position, posture, and the common mistakes that create chaos at impact. I talk about watching my son learn the game and what that reveals about instinct, concept, and strike. Whether you're a 20-handicap or scratch, this episode will help you understand the “Big Three” skills—face control, strike location, and ground contact—that actually separate good golfers from everyone else. Thank you to our show sponsors HackMotion, The Indoor Golf Shop, and LMNT: This episode is brought to you by HackMotion—it's like having a coach on your wrist.

The most transformative strategic leaders understand that building ever-larger organizational infrastructure is counterproductive. Instead, they leverage resources and achieve impact by engineering robust, trust-based networks.Jane Wei-Skillern, a Senior Fellow at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business whose network leadership research has been downloaded over 31,000 times, reveals the four counterintuitive principles driving systemic success. This is a complete contrast to conventional growth thinking. Learn how to use decentralized influence to maximize resource effectiveness and generate sustainable, scalable impact. Paradigm Shifts: → Mission before Organization: Success is achieved by prioritizing a shared strategic objective over traditional organizational metrics, such as budget or internal infrastructure growth. → Trust not Control: Shifting from seeking headquarters dominance and enforcing internal hierarchy to establishing deep, relational foundations with trusted peers and collaborators. → Humility not Brand: Rejecting centralized brand management and resource accumulation in favor of leveraging shared intelligence across the broader ecosystem. → Constellations not Stars: Systemic impact is maximized when leaders work alongside peers as equals to build robust, enduring networks, rather than seeking individual organizational dominance.Ecosystem Impact: → Large, brand-driven organizations often struggle with internal politicking and learning barriers between headquarters and field offices. → Network leadership eliminates resource redundancies and increases efficiency, making limited resources "go further, go faster". → Leaders who reject the status of being the single "founder" or having the "best ideas" are better positioned to listen and observe intelligence from every corner of the world. → Robust networks generate organizational success more efficiently, effectively, and sustainably.The Innovation: Recognizing that scalable impact is achieved not by accumulating static resources or internal power bases, but by actively building an ecosystem of high-trust peer relationships. This approach fosters continuous collaboration and system-wide leverage.Strategic Application: Executives must audit whether current investments prioritize institutional growth or the engineering of high-trust, decentralized partnership ecosystems. Success hinges on designing a constellation structure that optimally distributes effort and knowledge.Strategic Reframe: In complex, hyper-connected systems that punish resource waste, ask: "Are we building a resource-draining institutional empire, or are we engineering a scalable, high-impact constellation structure built on leveraged peer-to-peer trust?" The most resilient Ecosystemic Futures are driven by influence through connection, not dominance through control.

Jon Taylor is an interdisciplinary scientist dedicated to the subject of anomalous phenomena related to cognition.He was born in Wakefield, England, and graduated from the University of Cambridge with an MA in Natural Sciences. He began his career in research and marketing within the field of scientific instruments. He then switched to consumer marketing and moved to Spain in 1976 to become International Marketing Director for wine producer Williams & Humbert Ltd., Jerez de la Frontera.Later, he joined the oil industry, and after engagement on contracts in Britain, Italy and Spain, he was transferred to the Middle East, where he served as Materials & Purchasing Manager for the National Drilling Company, Abu Dhabi.Taylor has always been intrigued by psychic phenomena, and when he returned to Spain in 1993, he started a full-time investigation of the physical and biological principles underlying precognition and intuition. His research continued for more than 25 years, during which he published in peer-reviewed academic journals and lectured to specialist audiences, as well as to the general public, in Britain and Europe.Taylor presented his theory of ESP in a lecture at the 56th Annual Convention of the Parapsychological Association (PA), held in Rome, Italy, in August 2013, and he described the theory in a paper titled “The Nature of Precognition” published in the Journal of Parapsychology, March 2014.He then applied his theory to explain intuition, and presented his research at the PA Convention in Paris, July 2019. He was also invited to participate in a workshop organized by the Institut Métapsychique International, in which 30 scientists from all over the world examined the theoretical aspects of psychic phenomena. The workshop was in celebration of the Centenary of the IMI. Taylor is a professional member of the PA, and member of several other organizations including the American Association for the Advancement of Science  and the Society for Scientific Exploration.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

In this episode, Jon and Adam unpack one of golf's most overlooked fundamentals — arc depth, the vertical dimension of your swing that determines whether you strike it pure, fat, or thin. They explain how it differs from attack angle and plane, why it's the “hidden force” behind contact quality, and how you can train it using simple feedback drills. Jon also shares lessons from a conversation with Sir Nick Faldo about confidence under pressure, preparation, and finding a go-to shot when it matters most. The two finish by debating how launch monitors have changed the way golfers learn — and whether chasing numbers is helping or hurting our ability to play instinctively.

When finance leaders push for measurable savings and supply chain leaders prioritize continuity and resilience, technology adoption often gets caught in the middle. Procurement teams, operating with risk-averse cultures and outdated tools, face growing complexity while pressure mounts from both sides of the business. In this episode of the AI in Business podcast, Rob DeSantis — CEO and Co-founder of Arkestro, Co-founder of Ariba, and early LinkedIn executive — explains to Emerj CEO and Head of Research Daniel Faggella why AI represents more than incremental change for procurement. Instead of simply digitizing old workflows, AI enables re-imagined processes that deliver step-function value, often translating into 20 to 30 percent savings directly impacting earnings per share.

In this episode, Jon opens up about a recent tournament where he lost his temper on the course for the first time in years and what it revealed about perfectionism, ego, and expectation management in golf. He and Adam break down why anger shows up for golfers of every level, from the feeling of helplessness to tying our self-worth to our scores. The conversation explores how to recognize when frustration crosses the line into self-sabotage, and how philosophy and rational thinking can help you regain control. Whether you're slamming clubs or silently boiling inside, this episode will help you understand the roots of golf anger and how to use it to play (and live) better.

Tonight's episode, Gabe from Flint, Michigan shares a lifetime of strange encounters that began in childhood and never let go. Schoolyard ESP games and a shattering altar prayer to psychedelic warnings, prophetic dreams, and a vivid encounter with a hovering orb of light, his story threads through faith, trauma, synchronicity, precognition and the search for meaning. Along the way we hear how writing seemed to spill into reality, how a pilot friend reported a UFO between Kamchatka and Alaska, and how patterns of coincidence shaped his belief that consciousness and information are inseparable.  More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-354-precognition-through-the-glass-darkly/Hidden Cults (Promo)It is a documentary-style podcast that digs deep into the world's most extreme, elusive, and explosive fringe groups.

Performance coach Karl Morris joins the show to discuss a ton of topics, including: Mindset trap to avoid: the “I'll be happy when…” illusion - chasing scores or milestones rarely delivers lasting fulfillment; reset what success means to reduce threat and play freer Reframing golf as a series of puzzles; give your mind a fresh, solvable problem each shot (instead of a vague “one shot at a time” A simple pre-shot trigger: the “red dot” story—use a visual cue to enter the shot, then ask two fast questions: what picture do I want, and what will it feel like?

This week Nick talks to Peter YorkPeter York is an author, broadcaster, journalist, management consultant and cultural commentator. He was Style Editor of Harper's & Queen for ten years and co-authored The Official Sloane Ranger Handbook in 1982. He co-founded the consultancy SRU Ltd, later chaired a UK government Foresight committee on the future of leisure, and has written for The Independent on Sunday, GQ and Management Today.Peter's most recent books are The War Against the BBC: How an Unprecedented Combination of Hostile Forces Is Destroying Britain's Greatest Cultural Institution... And Why You Should Care and A Dead Cat on Your Table — which argues that Britain's culture wars are waged by a shameless minority with no shortage of money or media access, battling society's most vulnerable not for principle, but for money and political power.Peter and Nick discuss Peter's inspiring mentors and working with major brands, media outlets, and designers while building his consultancy career. They also discusses the creation and cultural impact of the Sloane Ranger Handbook, its ties to 1980s London, and the social shifts of that era. Peter contrasts the old financial and advertising worlds with today's technology-driven landscape, expressing concern about the decline of human connection, the rise of disinformation, and the role of AI in shaping public opinion. They also cover some of the themes of his book A Dead Cat on Your Table, which explores how culture wars and “othering” distract from real societal issues.Peter's book choice wasThe Three Musketeers Hardcover – by Alexandre Dumas Peter's music choices whereAvalon by Roxy MusicOnce in a Lifetime by Talking Heads Subscribe to Peter's Podcast - Peter York's Culture Wars House PartyThis content is issued by Zeus Capital Limited (“Zeus”) (Incorporated in England & Wales No. 4417845), which is authorised and regulated in the United Kingdom by the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) for designated investment business, (Reg No. 224621) and is a member firm of the London Stock Exchange.

Most golfers think new equipment is the answer, but the truth is one lesson can often do more than a $1,000 driver. In this episode, Adam and Jon dig into why so many players struggle to change their swing, the role that concepts and external cues play, and how Adam fixed a 60-yard slice in just a few swings with a simple drill. We also tackle a listener question about match play strateg - how to handle the mental side of competing against a friend and avoid the common traps golfers fall into. If you've ever wondered why swing changes feel impossible or how to sharpen your competitive mindset, this episode has plenty of practical takeaways you can bring straight to the course.

Welcome to episode #1000 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Patrick Tanguay is a self-described generalist, synthesist and curator whose lifelong curiosity and love of reading have led him across multiple careers, and now shape one of the most thoughtful newsletters in the futures-thinking space. As the creator of Sentiers, a weekly “futures thinking observatory” (and one of my most favorite reads), Patrick spotlights signals of change across technology, society, and culture. He helps readers trace emergent paths instead of prescribing them. Alongside his writing, he designed and launched Station C, one of the first co-working spaces, co-founded the print magazine, The Alpine Review, and seeded communities like Creative Mornings and some of the earlier community get-togethers for the digital enthusiasts. For episode #1000, Patrick guides us through how he curates global currents of change, explores how platform design, sense-making systems and personal knowledge management influence our capacity to understand the future, and why the skills of generalists matter now more than ever. He walks us through why Sentiers became such a respected newsletter and how its architecture reinforces and expands his handwritten trail of ideas. Across the show we consider how to build a personal “observatory,” not just follow feed algorithms, how to connect seemingly disparate signals from AI to city futures, and why being able to notice what's happening before everyone else is becoming more crucial... and more rare. This is an episode for curious minds, digital gardeners and anyone searching for clarity amid chaos. I hope that you will also take a couple of moments to listen to my opening monologue about my reflections on the past 1000 episodes (nearly 20 years), and what the future will hold for this show starting next week.

The explosion of AI-generated applications isn't just breaking traditional recruiting - it's creating an unprecedented opportunity by making sophisticated assessment tools accessible for early-stage screening. There is now the opportunity to filter thousands of applicants based on actual predictive data. However, the vendor landscape here can be confusing, and some offerings lack the transparency that employers need. So how can organizations identify tools that leverage AI's efficiency while respecting established peer-reviewed assessment science? My guest this week is Djurre Holtrop, Assistant Professor at Tilburg University. In our conversation, Jura reveals how AI could democratize evidence-based assessment for organizations of all sizes and offers advice on best practices and the future assessment landscape. In the interview, we discuss: The science-practice gap in assessment The tension arising from the rapid development of AI and the need to evaluate work performance results over time. AI isn't making the process worse because CVs and cover letters have no predictive validity. How is AI improving the science? Transforming recruiting with early-stage screening How bias carries through the recruiting process Resetting our mental models What does the future look like?

Up to 20% of the global workforce is likely to be neurodivergent and mostly undiagnosed. Understanding how to unlock the full potential of people with non-typical brains should be important to all employers. The difference between the right and wrong job fit for someone with ADHD or other neurodivergent conditions can be the difference between struggling daily and becoming a top performer.  So what if the key to creating exceptional teams lies not in trying to fit everyone into the same mold, but in asking the right questions to understand what each person needs to thrive? My guest this week is Shell Mendelson, an ADHD career coach with 35 years of experience helping neurodivergent individuals find their ideal work fit. In our conversation, Shell shares her proven process for identifying the "must-haves" that enable neurodivergent employees to perform at their highest level and explains why understanding individual needs benefits both employees and employers. In the interview, we discuss: The challenges for ND people at work Why everyone's needs are different The benefits of recognising the spectrum of different brains in your organization The contradictions of neurodiversity The importance of job fit and asking the right questions How small accommodations can make a massive impact Making work better for everyone Recruiting Future helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology.

Just head to mattalder.me/podcast to complete the assessment—it only takes a few minutes. This episode is about Talent and Technology. The recruitment marketing landscape has been about more than just job advertising for a long time. However, many employers are still missing out on the unique benefits search and social bring to the marketing mix by approaching these channels in the same way they approach job boards.  As AI reshapes these platforms and candidate behavior evolves rapidly, there's a widening gap between companies seeing dramatic results and those struggling with failed campaigns and wasted investment. The difference isn't budget—it's about building long-term strategies based on data and a strong understanding of each channel's unique strengths and differences.  So what can employers do to ensure they are getting full value from their recruitment marketing budgets? My guests this week are Kelsey Krater, Chief Platform Officer at Appcast, and Appcast's Director of Digital Media, Alexandra Horwitt Anema. In our conversation, we talk about the unique strengths of search and social, how they are evolving and the critical importance of data in recruitment marketing.  In the interview, we discuss: Driving quality hires from recruitment marketing Why search and social aren't job boards Search and intent Filling funnel gaps and building diversity A layered media approach Telling stories with social The danger of prioritising quick wins over long-term strategy Recent developments in search and social The critical importance of data Nurturing and remarketing Pipeline building over transactional thinking What does the future look like?

For too long, gaps in resumes have been a red flag for recruiters. But what if this outdated bias is costing you your best hires? In today's world, where everyone's constantly reskilling and skills become obsolete within months, penalizing career breaks makes absolutely no sense. This red flag mentality drives ageism and automatically screens out experienced professionals. Organizations clinging to "recent experience" requirements are handing their competitors access to mature talent bringing fresh perspectives, proven loyalty, and decades of expertise. So how can forward-thinking employers flip this nonsensical bias into strategic advantage by recognizing that career breaks often create stronger professionals, not weaker ones? My guest this week is Hazel Little, CEO at Career Returners. Hazel exposes the real cost of resume gap discrimination and shares proven strategies for building returner programs that deliver business results. In our conversation, she reveals why the red flag mentality around career breaks belongs in recruiting's past. In the interview, we discuss: What is a career returner? What are the common issues returners face The human impact of bias What drives career gap bias? Incorrect perceptions, false assumptions, and outdated approaches to hiring The significant advantages of tapping into the returner talent pool The significance of the decreasing shelf life of skills Advice to employers What might the future look like?

In the latest episode of the Nomad Futurist podcast, co-hosts Nabeel Mahmood and Phillip Koblence bridge three time zones to sit down with Dr. Atif Ansar, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of Foresight, for a fascinating exploration of the real reasons ambitious infrastructure projects thrive — or fail. At the core of this conversation is Atif's powerful thesis: the biggest challenges in large-scale development aren't technical; they're human. “A lot of my work with colleagues is based around human biases — both psychological and political biases — that go into estimation and execution of these projects.” Moving beyond spreadsheets and blueprints, Atif highlights how hidden forces like optimism bias, cultural dynamics, and political agendas often shape billion-dollar decisions more than facts on paper. Listeners follow Atif's journey from academia to entrepreneurship, sparked by a candid conversation over coffee that led to the founding of Foresight: “In 2018, one of my executive education students... said ‘Look, I think there's a business idea here.' We [grabbed] coffee, then drinks... and Foresight was born.” Drawing on global comparisons, including China and his teams' work in Israel, Atif argues that national motivation and collective purpose often trump money or even technology when it comes to getting projects done: “What people in China have is deep purpose around building their own nation, and that belief propels tremendous action... My team is in Israel [and has a] tremendous desire to propel faster delivery because people are motivated, intentional, and purposeful to get things done.” This episode challenges conventional thinking, positioning infrastructure not as a technical problem to solve, but as a test of collective intent, societal values, and human behavior. With wisdom, humility, and clarity, Atif reminds us why curiosity, continued learning, and a willingness to face hard truths are essential traits for anyone shaping our physical and digital world: “Stretch your mind.” Listen now and connect with Dr. Atif Ansar on LinkedIn.

Organizations face a critical AI inflection point: the pressure to implement quickly conflicts with uncertainty about the right approach. While some companies are still cautiously experimenting with basic AI tools, others have fundamentally reimagined how work gets done. What separates the companies achieving remarkable results from those stuck in endless pilots? Often, it's not the technology itself but the culture and approach to adoption. So how exactly are companies at the cutting edge getting to the cutting edge? My guest this week is Brandon Sammut, Chief People Officer at Zapier. Ever since Zapier's"CEO issued a 'Code Red" on AI back in March 2023, Zapier has been undergoing an AI transformation in every part of its business.. In our conversation, Brandon shares how their AI strategy is boosting both productivity and employee engagement, why and how every new hire must demonstrate AI fluency, and why it is critical to keep the human touch in talent acquisition and throughout the employee journey.

How do we move from reactive recruiting to predictive talent acquisition? In an era where performance metrics drive every business decision, recruitment often remains stubbornly intuition-based, especially when evaluating soft skills like empathy, communication, and critical thinking. What if AI could help us predict performance before a candidate even starts? And what happens when we connect hiring decisions to actual performance outcomes, creating a feedback loop that makes recruiters smarter over time? Can technology help us understand which risks are worth taking, and which gut feelings we should trust?  My guests this week are Veronique Lacasse, Senior Manager at Bell Canada, and Stephane Rivard, Co-founder and CEO of HiringBranch. In our conversation, Veronique and Stephane walk us through Bell's integrated approach to talent acquisition, which utilizes AI assessment data on soft skills to create a predictive, performance-driven hiring system that is still very much driven by human recruiters. In the interview, we discuss: Soft skills and business performance Measuring soft skills with AI driven assessments Challenges in high-volume hiring Building a feedback loop in recruiting, onboarding, and training Showing recruiters the performance outcomes of their decisions The candidate experience Why human recruiters aren't being replaced What does the future look like?
