Part 1: Exploring the Enneagram and Its Impact on the Human Experience with Phil George Join us as we explore the impact of the Enneagram on the human experience. This is the first of a 2-part episode. The Enneagram is a model of the human psyche that describes nine interconnected personality types, each defined by a different core motivation, fear and desire. It is used as a tool to understand behavior, unconscious patterns, growth paths, and the types are represented through the use of a nine-pointed symbol diagram. In this episode, we will explore the nine personality types and discuss how understanding this information can assist you in communicating with others.

In this fast paced world, we tend to look at surface behaviors and come to conclusions. We are evolving spiritual beings primarily and human beings secondarily. Every saint has a past and every sinner has a future. Remembering this helps us pull back from judgement and not feed the identity of our ego as much.————————————————————You can join the conversation Live every Monday at 6 pm ET on Facebook & YouTube!

In this solo episode, I explore the deep significance of ritual—especially as we move through the season of descent and into the longest night of the year. Modern culture has stripped ritual of its heart, reducing sacred rhythms to holidays and surface forms. What once rooted us in mystery has become spectacle or habit. In this conversation, I want to return to the essence of ritual as something alive—something that helps us remember what we've forgotten. I share personal stories and reflections from my own spiritual practice, from early meditation experiences to what I've learned through depth psychology and comparative religion. We'll look at how genuine ritual serves not as superstition, but as an act of remembering, reconnecting, and transforming—an embodied way of saying yes to the unseen life moving through us. This episode explores how ritual bridges matter and spirit, how mystical experience can reorient the psyche, and how remembering the sacred in everyday life is both an act of rebellion and a return home. Ritual invites us to tend what still burns within us—to live in rhythm with the mystery that underlies all things. Key Reflections Ritual anchors the sacred in the rhythms of everyday life. Modern culture often forgets the true essence and transformative power of ritual. Mystical and peak experiences ask to be honored, integrated, and lived—not chased. Remembering and reclaiming ritual is an act of rebellion, renewal, and belonging.

In this episode, I explore the fear of freedom. Why would we be scared of freedom? It sounds ridiculous...everyone wants freedom right? We all DO want it but why don't we all have it if it's our birthright? It's like all other blocks, they're based in fear and conditioning. It's time to do a deep dive into where it comes from so we can transcend it.————————————————————You can join the conversation Live every Monday at 6 pm ET on Facebook & YouTube!

The Elephant In The Room Property Podcast | Inside Australian Real Estate
Everyone's talking about AI as the future of property, but what if it's quietly distorting how we see value?Veronica and Chris sit down with Luke Metcalfe, founder of Microburbs and DataScape, to reveal why precision in property data is often just an illusion. Luke, one of Australia's leading data scientists, reveals why many AI-driven tools sound convincing but are often wrong — and how they can even manipulate our confidence in property decisions.From understanding what AI models are actually trained to do, to exploring why machine learning can't yet capture local nuance or human psychology, this episode challenges the blind faith many investors place in “data-driven” insights.Luke explains the difference between language-based AI and number-based forecasting models, the dangers of herd thinking in machine learning, and how misinformation spreads faster when machines start selling the dream.If you've ever wondered whether AI could replace your buyer's agent — or if you've trusted a chatbot to tell you where to buy next — this is your wake-up call. Tune in to learn how to question the data, test the claims, and keep human intuition at the heart of smart investing.Episode Highlights00:00 – Introduction: The Illusion of Precision in Property Data00:27 – Guest Introduction: Luke Metcalfe01:50 – AI's Role in Property Decisions03:09 – Challenges and Limitations of AI in Real Estate05:16 – The Psychology of AI and Property Investment07:41 – AI's Persuasive Power and Ethical Concerns12:26 – Future of AI in Property Forecasting26:37 – Granularity and Local Knowledge in Property Data30:01 – The Importance of Human Experience in Property Evaluation37:18 – The Impact of Crime on Property Markets39:36 – Melbourne's Property Market Sentiment41:40 – The Role of Data in Real Estate47:36 – Future Trends and Technological ImpactsAbout the GuestLuke Metcalfe is an Australian entrepreneur and data scientist known for pioneering the use of large-scale analytics in understanding neighbourhood performance and property trends.After launching NationMaster, a global data platform attracting over 10 million monthly visitors, Luke founded Microburbs, a liveability and housing data company providing hyperlocal insights that help buyers, investors, and agents make informed decisions.

Kat Armas joins Shifting Culture to talk about her new book, Liturgies for Resisting Empire, a powerful exploration of how empire shapes the way we think about God, community, time, and ourselves. She names the ways control, hierarchy, and productivity have distorted our faith and imaginations, and invites us into practices of resistance rooted in love, rest, and belonging. Kat offers a vision of wholeness that embraces paradox over dualism, kinship over domination, and peace over violence. This conversation points us toward a more human way of living. One where we belong without conditions and find God in the places empire forgets.Kat Armas is a Cuban American writer, speaker, and theologian from Miami, FL. She holds a ThM from Vanderbilt Divinity School, and a dual MDiv and MAT from Fuller Theological Seminary where she was awarded the Frederick Buechner Award for Excellence in Writing.Her first book, Abuelita Faith: What Women on the Margins Teach Us About Wisdom, Persistence and Strength, sits at the intersection of women, decolonialism, the Bible, and Cuban identity. Her second book, Sacred Belonging: A 40-day Devotional on the Liberating Heart of Scripture invites readers to encounter the Bible through a decolonized lens, lifting up themes of creation, wisdom, spirit, the body, and the feminine.Kat has spoken at seminaries, universities, and conferences nationwide and her work has appeared in the National Catholic Reporter—where one of her essays was shared by the pope!, Plough Magazine, The Christian Century, Christianity Today, Sojornours Magazine, and more.Kat currently lives on a small farm in middle Tennessee with her family—which includes her spouse, young children, chickens, goats, pigs, dogs, and cats.

In this episode of The Data Chief, Ilan Twig, co-founder and CTO of Navan, shares why large language models will revolutionize our relationship with technology—just like the mouse did for the keyboard. From pushing AI to its limits to launching Navan Cognition, built for zero critical hallucination, Ilan reveals what it really takes to lead through change and build AI that people can trust. He also dives into a critical question every company must face: Will you build AI from scratch, or build with AI partners?? And if you're curious about the next frontier, Ilan paints a bold vision of agent-to-agent communication—where AI services talk to each other and your admin work disappears into the background. A must-listen for anyone building the future of AI-powered user experiences.Key Moments:Agent-to-Agent Communication (A2A) (17:00): Ilan envisions a future where dedicated AI services communicate with each other in natural language, without the need for an API. This "mother of all bots" would manage administrative tasks by talking to other bots, simplifying complex tasks for the user.AI as a "Human" Experience (27:16): Ilan was surprised by the release of ChatGPT in 2022 because it was the first time a technology felt human. This led him to spend four months building and testing the technology's boundaries, including its ability to lie or be "jailbroken" with creative prompts.Identifying the Core Business (31:43): Ilan advises companies to decide if they want to become an "AI company" or simply use AI. He explains that building a core AI platform requires a huge commitment.A Case Study in Building (35:32): The conversation furthers, as a light is shed on the building of “Navan Cognition”, because no solution existed at the time to prevent critical hallucinations in AI models. This system includes a supervisor agent that works to catch and correct undesirable responses, creating a "zero critical hallucination" experience for its users.Key Quotes:"LLMs would do to the mouse what the mouse did to the keyboard when it comes to how humans interact with computers." - Ilan Twig“My role is to always apply the best technology in order to drive, to create the best product and best experience. That's my role. And it is not technology for the sake of technology. It is technology for the sake of creating value for the users." - Ilan Twig“We ended up using ThoughtSpot. We also applied the generative AI capabilities that you guys have built into your product. That's build versus buy. That's the benefit of buy.” - Ilan TwigMentionsNavan Introduces World's Smartest T&E Personal AssistantNavan CognitionAI jailbreak method tricks LLMs into poisoning their own contextSurely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman! (Adventures of a Curious Character) - Richard P. FeynmanGuest Bio Ilan Twig is the co-founder and Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of Navan, the leading modern travel and expense management platform, globally.

Hello beautifuls! On todays episode of Invincible Her, Abbie and I discuss "The Human Experience is a Fingerprint" so Hold On, My Friend! We dive into the idea that the human experience is like a fingerprint — completely unique to each person. They talk about how our individual journeys, shaped by our mental health, backgrounds, and life events, create personal patterns that define who we are and how we see the world. Abbie shares how mental health struggles can sometimes make people feel isolated, but understanding that everyone's path looks different helps us replace judgment with compassion — for ourselves and for others. Kellie builds on this by exploring how emotional resilience becomes the bridge between hardship and healing. She and Abbie reflect on the importance of developing self-awareness, healthy coping tools, and supportive connections that allow people to bounce back from life's challenges. Together, they emphasize that resilience isn't about never breaking down — it's about learning, adapting, and rebuilding stronger each time. Their conversation reminds listeners that embracing their unique emotional fingerprint is the key to genuine growth and connection We love you, until next time!

Iain Thomas is a poet, author, and the Chief Innovation Officer at Sounds Fun—an advertising and creative agency that he co-founded with the belief that human creativity could be enhanced, rather than diminished, with the help of AI. It's a realization that actually began to dawn on Iain a few years prior, after his mother died. He wasn't sure how to explain death to his children, so he turned to an early version of ChatGPT for help—and was so impressed by the poetry of its responses that he came away convinced of AI's immense potential as a thought partner for his creative work. On this episode, Iain talks about using AI to make more space for the creative parts of your work, and why, in a world where everyone has access to the same tools, it's never been more important to lean into the skills, context, and experiences that make each of us most unique—and most human.Learn more about Sounds Fun soundsfun.co~ ~ ~Working Smarter is brought to you by Dropbox Dash—the AI universal search and knowledge management tool from Dropbox.

Show Notes:In this profound episode of The Human Experience, host Jennifer Peterkin and guest interviewer Linda explore the extraordinary story of a woman whose Hungarian refugee parents survived World War II and the Holocaust. The guest recounts the shocking discovery of her hidden Jewish heritage within a family that had long believed they were Catholic.

https://staciebaird.com/the-hx-podcastIn this episode, I'm kicking off a new series that's very near and dear to my heart: talent. I was struck by a McKinsey study called "The War for Talent," published back in 1998, which happened to be the first year I was in recruiting. Reading it again, I was shocked to realize that the core challenges it identified; a shortage of leadership talent, a lack of manager accountability for developing people, and the need for a compelling employee value proposition - are issues we are still grappling with today, perhaps more acutely than ever. It really made me ask, why are we still hiring like it's 1998? This realization is why I'm launching this series. We're going to dig into what it truly means to attract, develop, and retain people in 2025 and beyond. We'll question everything, from legacy practices like requiring a bachelor's degree for every job posting to how we can elevate the human experience for candidates in an era dominated by applicant tracking systems. We'll explore how to build a real talent pipeline, how to measure potential, and how to create a workplace where great people actually want to join and stay. I want to be clear that I don't have all the answers; I'm here to learn right alongside you. This is a conversation I want us to have together. I'm excited to talk about what has evolved over the last 25 years, what has stubbornly stayed the same, and what we need to do now to finally move forward. If you're passionate about this topic, I want to hear from you as we explore how to finally win this long-running war for talent. Stacie More episodes at StacieBaird.com.
