Podcasts about human experience

In this episode of the No Brainer podcast, Geoff Livingston and Greg Verdino chat with Dave and Helen Edwards, co-founders of the Artificiality Institute, to explore the profound impact of AI on human experience and organizational culture. They discuss the philosophical and cultural shifts brought about by AI, the biases influencing narratives around productivity, and the importance of trust and AI literacy in navigating this new landscape. The conversation emphasizes the need for leaders to understand not just the complexities of AI integration into their organization, but the broader human experience it shapes. The Artificiality Institute is a nonprofit that researches, documents, and promotes a deeper, more human-centered understanding of the human experience in an age of increasing synthetic intelligence, or AI. Through its work, Artificiality aims to foster meaningful human-AI collaboration and design systems that support, rather than supplant, human identity and well-being. Their annual Artificiality Summit is happening in Bend, Oregon, from October 23 through 25. • Explore Artificiality Institute and its work: https://artificialityinstitute.org/ • Attend the Artificiality Summit, October 23-25 in Bend, Oregon: https://artificialityinstitute.org/summit/ Chapters 00:00 Introduction to AI and Its Impact on Organizations 02:44 Understanding AI as a Cultural Shift 05:40 The Human Experience with AI 08:18 Navigating the Confusion Around AI Productivity 10:58 Bias in AI Narratives 13:46 The Role of Trust in AI Adoption 16:37 The Complexity of AI Integration in Organizations 19:30 Moments of Change in the AI Landscape 27:08 Understanding Moments in Human Experience 29:50 The Neuroscience of Moments 32:00 AI's Role in Human Consciousness 36:36 The Benefits and Hazards of AI 38:28 The Importance of AI Literacy 41:52 Cultural Change vs. Technology Adoption 44:50 Trust and Productivity in AI Adoption Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of The Human Experience, host Jennifer Peterkin travels to Clermont, FL and welcomes Derek Newborn, who shares his raw and inspiring journey from abandonment, trauma, and self-destruction to transformation, healing, and purpose. Growing up in Fort Myers, Florida, Derek faced the pain of parental incarceration, single-parent struggles, and a deep sense of abandonment. Becoming a father at 16 and navigating hardships such as divorce, narcissism, and a suicide attempt, Derek reveals how he reached rock bottom and began the hard process of rebuilding his life. Through deep vulnerability, self-reflection, and a spiritual awakening, Derek learned to take ownership of his story. His journey of resilience offers listeners valuable insight into self-compassion, accountability, and the power of rewriting one’s narrative. ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains discussions of suicide and trauma. Listener discretion is strongly advised. Key Takeaways:● Childhood experiences and family dynamics shape adult struggles and emotional development.● Derek shares the impact of parental incarceration and the challenges of being raised by a single parent.● Abandonment and isolation influenced destructive patterns in relationships and self-worth.● His journey of self-discovery highlights the importance of accountability and rewriting one’s story.● Trauma is subjective—its impact depends on how it’s carried and processed.● Community support, vulnerability, and self-compassion are vital to healing.● Forgiveness is powerful but doesn’t always mean reconciliation.● Derek describes the shift from narcissism and self-centeredness to authentic connection.● A spiritual awakening redefined his purpose and ability to help others.     Derek Newborn’s Bio:Once named one of Florida’s “Top Personal Trainers” and a published fitness model, Derek Newborn appeared to have it all. But beneath the surface, he was unraveling. Multiple suicide attempts, destructive relationships, and narcissistic behaviors nearly cost him everything. Instead of ending his life, Derek chose to end the version of himself that was destroying it. Through resilience, accountability, and faith, he rebuilt his life brick by brick. Today, Derek helps women escape toxic relationships with narcissists, reclaim their worth, and reconnect with their authentic selves—mentally, spiritually, and physically. Having lived many lives—teenage father, construction worker, trainer, model, business owner, and survivor—Derek proves it’s never too late to rewrite your story. His mission is clear: no matter how far you’ve fallen, you can rise again—and thrive.     Connect with Derek Newborn:

Dr. Emeran Mayer welcomes Martin Picard, PhD, mitochondrial biologist and systems thinker, for a fascinating conversation on the hidden role of mitochondria in health, stress, and consciousness.Martin explains how mitochondria, far beyond being simple “powerhouses of the cell”, are dynamic regulators of energy, emotion, and resilience. He explores their symbiotic relationship with the gut microbiome and how this ancient partnership influences inflammation, mental health, and overall well-being.You'll also hear about Martin's concept of “intrinsic health,” a field-like state that integrates biology, energy flow, and human experience. Together, he and Dr. Mayer discuss why understanding energy as the potential for change may reshape how we think about health, stress, and even consciousness itself.Key Topics Covered:• The evolutionary story of mitochondria and their link to the gut microbiome• Why energy is best understood as flow rather than a fixed resource• The impact of stress on mitochondrial health and resilience• How intrinsic health connects science with lived experience• A new paradigm for understanding mental and physical well-beingDiscover how mitochondria and the microbiome together form the foundation of vitality, and why a holistic, systems-based view of health is essential for true well-being.

AI isn't just changing technology, it's changing how you approach intimacy.WATCH NEXT ➡︎ https://youtu.be/YoIHF4Ks65QWhat happens when the porn industry no longer needs human bodies? When desire is shaped by pixels instead of people? And when the first sexual experience for a generation might be with something that isn't even real?In this episode, we're tackling one of the most dangerous trends quietly taking over: AI-generated pornography.We'll cover:Why AI porn is not the “ethical” alternative it claims to beHow deepfakes and generative AI are rewiring sexual desireThe lie behind “it's better than sinning with a real person”Whether AI porn trains us to fear real intimacyWho, or what, you're actually worshiping when you engage with itWhat true sexual healing looks like in a world of artificial connectionIf you've ever wondered, “Is AI porn really that bad?” or “Does it even matter if no one's getting hurt?” this conversation is for you.You're being trained by what you're entertained by. Let's talk about what that means. 

In this episode of Chasing Leviathan, PJ and Dr. Eric Nelson discuss his book 'Heidegger and Dao,' exploring the intersections between Heidegger's philosophy and Daoist thought. Dr. Nelson emphasizes the importance of charitable reading and intercultural hermeneutics, critiques the influence of technology on philosophical discourse, and highlights new documentation that reveals Heidegger's deeper engagement with Daoism. The discussion also delves into concepts of freedom, nothingness, nurturing darkness, and eco-mimesis, advocating for a more attuned and responsive way of living in relation to our environments.Make sure to check out Dr. Nelson's book: Heidegger and Dao: Things, Nothingness, Freedom (Daoism and the Human Experience)

Automation is reshaping workflows across various industries, from fast food to creative production, prompting a shift towards smaller, trust-based online communities. The discussion centers on the balance between efficiency and maintaining authentic human connections in the age of AI. Kate O'Neill, a tech humanist and founder of Kao Insights, emphasizes the importance of designing automation that empowers individuals rather than detracting from their experiences. The conversation explores how companies can foster meaningful connections while leveraging technology to streamline operations.The podcast highlights the case of McDonald's, which has been experimenting with AI to enhance its operational efficiency. Despite initial setbacks with AI voice systems, McDonald's continues to innovate, focusing on edge computing and predictive analytics to improve customer experience. O'Neill points out that the key to successful automation lies in aligning business objectives with customer expectations, ensuring that technology enhances rather than replaces the human experience. This alignment is crucial for brands to maintain trust and credibility with their customers.O'Neill discusses the significance of measuring meaning in business, suggesting that metrics like net promoter scores can serve as proxies for understanding customer satisfaction. She advocates for a comprehensive view of business models that incorporates meaningful measures at every stage. By doing so, organizations can better align their automation efforts with customer needs, ultimately leading to more impactful outcomes. The conversation underscores the necessity of integrating employee feedback into the process of defining purpose and meaning within organizations.As trust in digital platforms declines, O'Neill stresses the importance of shared values between brands and consumers. Companies must take on a governance role, operating from a place of responsibility and authenticity. By fostering trust through alignment with community values, businesses can create a more sustainable and meaningful relationship with their customers. The episode concludes with a call for organizations to articulate their purpose clearly, enabling employees to make decisions that resonate with both customer and employee experiences.  Gartner Webinar: https://www.gartner.com/en/webinar/689201 All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

The desire to pursue a passion can be a powerful motivator for individuals, often driving them to learn and grow despite feelings of unqualification or inexperience. This theme is vividly illustrated in this podcast episode featuring tattoo artist Chris Crooks, who shares his journey into the world of tattooing with host Aaron Della Vedova. From a young age, Chris was immersed in tattoo culture, with both of his grandfathers and his father sporting tattoos. This early exposure ignited a desire within him to become a tattoo artist, even before he fully understood the craft. He reflects on how the "desire to do it was bigger than the capabilities," highlighting a common experience among many who pursue their passions. This intrinsic motivation propelled him to acquire the skills necessary for success in tattooing, despite his initial lack of experience. Aaron sits down with Chris at Gods of Ink in Frankfurt, Germany. Aaron reflects on the tattoo artist journey that is rarely straightforward and lacks a clear roadmap.  The conversation explores the intricacies of the tattooing process and the passion that fuels artists in this creative field. Tune in for insights into the art of tattooing and the stories behind the ink. Chat Breakdown: 00:00:00 - Overcoming Limitations

"We have to allow ourselves to make mistakes and we have to be OK with those mistakes and not just beat ourselves up to the point where we are stifled." "Just cover it with Vaseline. When your tattoo looks like shit, just at the end, just wad a lot of Vaseline so they can barely see what's going on." "Just being nice to people. And then just that little bit of drawing for them or whatever, just a tiny bit of extra, it just naturally is what I felt like I wanted to do." "If you wanna come in right now, you better end up being fucking really good at this." "I just, I'm always curious, like, where'd that little part of me go?"  "Don't ever betray yourself by being indecisive and waking up and find yourself in a position that, you know, if you had a clone, it would tell you don't do it?" "Tattooing is like this, this lifestyle, find a decision, make the decision, go all in." "The biggest stumbling blocks for white guys aspiring to do Japanese stuff is other white guys that have been doing it longer." "You have to engage with people... it's a new community and you have to treat people with the same respect you would in real life." "Something was ignited in me that I haven't felt in a long time, and I think I needed it."

This episode of Philanthropy Speaks marks the 35th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act, which is a civil rights law that prohibits discrimination based on disability. Host Lynn Williams, Director of Equity & Community Engagement, sits down with Jessica Dixon, Community Advocacy and Peer Specialist at the Disability Network, for a conversation about the disability experience, ableism, intersectionality, and inclusion. Jessica discusses how the Disability Network supports and empowers people with disabilities to live independently in Genesee County, and how the team ensures that people with disabilities have a seat at the table for systems-level conversations. Jessica also shares how her own lived experience, including both visible and non-apparent disabilities, has shaped their work. With humor and heart, Jessica invites listeners to rethink assumptions, center the voices of people with disabilities, and move from pity to partnership.Listen to this episode to understand how "the disability experience is the human experience," and what it means to build a world where everyone can thrive. If you'd like to learn more about the Disability Network, visit disnetwork.org.

In this thought-provoking conversation, I'm joined by Kate O'Neill, author, speaker, and founder of KO Insights, to explore how leaders can make meaningful, human-centered decisions in a time of rapid AI adoption and organisational change. Known as the “Tech Humanist,” Kate has helped everyone from Google and IBM to city governments navigate the evolving relationship between emerging technologies and the human experience. We discuss what it really means to create a future that aligns tech innovation with human values. Rather than racing ahead with AI for its own sake, Kate argues that every organisation needs to start by clearly articulating its strategic purpose in three to five words. From there, technology should be implemented to serve people, not just processes. Kate shares insights from her latest book What Matters Next, including how to define ethical acceleration, how to lead through tech transformations without breaking cultural trust, and why asking “should we?” is more important than “can we?” when it comes to deploying agentic AI. She also breaks down why traditional efficiency metrics fall short when applied to human work, and how business leaders can shift towards more meaningful measures of success. We also reflect on real-world case studies, from Apple's design clarity to Duolingo's missteps in announcing its AI-first strategy. And in a world where many are using AI to automate hiring, content creation, and even strategy, Kate reminds us that wisdom, nuance, and empathy are still irreplaceable. So what does ethical acceleration look like in practice? And as businesses lean into automation, are we keeping the human experience at the centre or just chasing what's technically possible? I'd love to hear your take on this. Is your organisation leading with purpose or with pressure? Let's continue the conversation.

Soon after Lisa Iezzoni MD was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis during her first year at Harvard Medical School, from which she graduated in 1984, faculty and administrators discouraged her from practicing medicine.  And in her final year they made it impossible for her when the dean's office refused to write a recommendation letter (now called a Medical Student Performance Evaluation).  This week marks the 35th anniversary of the American Disabilities Act which was signed into law on July 26th, 1990. Much has changed since but -- as Dr. Iezzoni, who went on to become an eminent scholar and national policy leader on disability, has documented -- not nearly enough.  She and others have documented wide disparities in the quality of care patients with disabilities still receive, and in 2021 she published the findings of a national study of physician attitudes towards disability that document's persistent stigma and misinformation. Disabled patients were described as a “disruption to clinic flow” and a majority of physicians believed that patients with significant disability inherently have a worse quality of life.  Practices are also ill-equipped to care for them, Dr. Iezzoni, who chaired the U.S. Access Board's advisory committee on accessibility standards for medical equipment observed that “healthcare has been among the most backward environments, in terms of making itself accessible. Movie theaters are accessible, sports stadiums are accessible, transit is accessible. But healthcare facilities—no.” In our conversation with her, we explore why.  How is it that physicians have such difficulty appreciating that disability is simply a part of the human experience? We explore the link between the culture within medical education and training, and the kind of people physicians become.  ------ References: Physicians' Perceptions of People with Disability and Their Health Care US Access Board

Till Holzafpel is an engineer, programmer, consciousness researcher, and hardware psychonaut who designs virtual reality systems that can evoke the transcendent components of psychedelics… without requiring the consumption any substances. Much of his work is based on fact that there appears to be a massive component of psychedelic experiences that comes from sensory feedback, like sounds, patterns in the visual field, and the tactile components of the environment. Even something as simple as a flashing light can induce mystical experiences in a significant fraction of the population, and plenty of research suggests that there's a visual component to the healing properties of nature. As Till works on fitting those discoveries into an entirely new class of VR programs, we sat down for a conversation about how our sensory systems can be treated and tweaked to induce altered states of consciousness, the value of making this kind of experience widely accessible, and the shortcomings of a purely biochemical approach to understanding the impact of psychedelics on the human psyche. The video also includes a demo of Brain Candy, his augmented reality program for exploring consciousness through audio-visual patterns (https://braincandyapp.com/).

Back this week with one final, somewhat nautical episode to round out the month of June. This week we're talking about the Great Flood of Noah's Ark fame. It's one of the best known bible stories. But did you know, it doesn't end there? Almost every other major culture or religion that we know of has almost the same flood myth.

Leadership demands constant evolution in our rapidly changing world. Are you asking the right questions as a leader? Are you creating an environment where people can adapt, belong and thrive amid uncertainty?This solo episode distills the most powerful insights from four exceptional leaders featured on the podcast during June, blended with reflections on leadership in today's complex landscape. Kumar Parakala revealed how the pace of technological change is exponential - "the world is changing faster than ever before, but slower than it ever will again." His guidance on embracing AI to augment rather than replace human capabilities offers a powerful framework for technological leadership.Drawing an intriguing parallel between leadership and ChatGPT, both respond best to better questions. Like a skilled prompt engineer, great leaders know that quality questions yield quality answers. Jones Loflin challenged us to stop being "busy for busy's sake," reframing productivity as energy management rather than time management. Creating intentional space between commitments allows creativity to flourish.Dave MacDonald's wisdom on hiring for character over skills resonates deeply: "Resumes show what people have done; character shows what they'll do when no one's watching." This prompted the confronting question: If your workplace were a democracy, would you be re-elected as leader? Your team votes daily through their engagement and trust.Michael Lopez transformed our understanding of change management, explaining that people resist change not from stubbornness but from fear of loss. His concept of letting people "hold the pen" by co-architecting change creates ownership instead of resistance. During these times of global uncertainty, creating environments of safety and belonging for multicultural teams has never been more crucial.Subscribe to the Leadership Project on your preferred platform and follow us on LinkedIn and YouTube for weekly content designed to help you become the leader you wish you always had.

What if every challenging experience in your life—the difficult relationships, the heartbreak, the family drama—wasn't happening TO you, but was actually teaching you where you still needed to grow? This week, Gervase shares the spiritual psychology framework that has helped her reframe triggers, move through some of life's most traumatic events, and no longer be affected by other people's perception of her.  This isn't about spiritual bypassing. It's about understanding that you're a soul having a human experience, and Earth is literally school for your consciousness. Listen to this episode now to discover: Why you're a soul having a human experience, and how to view life's challenges as a video game so you can move to the next level in your journey Why Earth Stackers (spiritual allies) keep sending you the same lessons until you learn them (spoiler: your triggers are your curriculum) 3 powerful questions to ask yourself when you're feeling triggered so it no longer has power over you The difference between religion and spirituality that allows you to connect with the divine without the dogma How to shift from “I am upset because…” (victim mode) to “how can I take my power back” (spiritual boss mode) Why your most difficult relationships are actually your greatest teachers (and how to work with them instead of against them) The ONE question that can reveal your bigger intention in life   Hey Mamas, let's be YOU again, while raising them: Introducing Whole Mother Rising, a 4 week mini-mastermind for mothers who are ready to reclaim their power, purpose, and joy… without guilt.

The workplace is evolving, but not without friction. AI, culture, and leadership expectations are colliding, and while some leaders scramble to keep up, others are creating environments that feel more like day spas than places of work. How do you lead with kindness while still setting high expectations? In this episode of Future Ready Leadership, I spoke with KeyAnna Schmiedl, Chief Human Experience Officer at Workhuman, about what it really takes to evolve workplace culture and leadership in a time of rapid change. We explored the current state of AI and its role in supporting, not replacing the human element at work. KeyAnna sheds light on the shift from compliance-focused HR to human experience-focused leadership, and how organizations can avoid the trap of over-accommodation and instead focus on clarity, accountability, and human-centered leadership. We discussed the misapplication of psychological safety, the dangers of therapy language, the importance of building resilience and critical thinking, and why companies struggle to define and communicate their true culture. ________________ This episode is sponsored by Workhuman: Don't you hate how every HR company out there says they are powered by AI?
