There seems to be no limit to what artificial intelligence can produce and create. So how will artificial intelligence impact the way we make and critique art? Today, we hear how artists are using artificial intelligence in their work. We ask a Connecticut professor, and artists of all disciplines, if AI is good or bad for the creative process. We also explore a question: If AI is the author, can what it made really be called art?

Hello everyone! As  promised we have just published episode two and episode three of our three part interview series with Doug Horne and you can find all three episodes over at JFK The Enduring Secret YouTube channel  Doug Horne is an iconic figure in the area of JFK research and investigation. His courageous work while at the Assassination Records Review Board has proven to be one of the most important contributions to the understanding of JFK autopsy evidence. I first met Doug in November 2023, during the week of the 60th anniversary of the assassination. His presentations in Pittsburgh at Duquesne University were Illuminating. After his absence for a time from the more active JFK research community, we were all delighted at seeing him return to engage once again. Fast forward to November 2024, and Doug and I once again crossed paths in Dallas at the JFK Historical Group. It was happenstance and a call from our mutual friend Andrew Iler that brought us together this past week…once again. We spent two days intensely rehashing elements of the case and the autopsy and you are going to hear close to five hours of incredible interview dialogue from Doug that I am certain you won't want to miss. These tapings are spread out over three episodes and they represent a master class about the medical evidence and a candid talk about what it all means. And  it all comes directly from Doug. Want to hear his detail conclusions? Want to know just what shots hit the president and whether shots were fired from some place other than the school book depository? Come listen to this episode on our YouTube channel  and you'll find out. And you'll hear some  spellbinding  personal history too, as Doug tells the story of how he came to be part of the ARRB and how the ARRB came to operate in such a highly effective way, in order to advance the investigation. And doing so,  even when their charter stopped short of officially allowing them to investigate. It's a fascinating story from one of the foremost experts on this case. Come join us tonight for the first of three episodes. Please do hurry over to JFK The Enduring Secret YouTube channel, and watch this fantastic series of conversations with Doug Horne…and please do subscribe to our JFK the Enduring Secret YouTube channel when you get there.

Send us a textWhat decides which stories survive the test of time? Who determines which voices echo through history's halls? These questions lie at the heart of our fascinating conversation with Dominique Luster, a master storyteller and dedicated archivist who's revolutionizing how we preserve Black narratives.Describing her work as "Harriet Tubman meets Indiana Jones," Dominique shares her remarkable journey from theater major to founder of The Luster Company, a groundbreaking archival firm named after her fifth great-grandmother Charity—born enslaved in 1825 and later became an entrepreneur against extraordinary odds. This ancestral connection drives Dominique's mission to uncover, preserve, and celebrate the rich tapestry of Black history that traditional institutions have often overlooked.Dominique offers profound insights into the power dynamics underlying historical preservation. "History doesn't repeat itself. Humans do," she explains, challenging us to recognize how the mere 1% of documents preserved in archives represents deliberate choices made by those with the power to decide which stories matter. Every preserved photograph, letter, or record reflects not just its creator's perspective but also the values of those who deemed it worthy of saving.What resonates most powerfully is Dominique's celebration of everyday Black life. Beyond focusing solely on extraordinary achievements or devastating tragedies, she illuminates the meaningful middle—the beauty salon owner who served her community for decades, the thriving neighborhoods that created spaces of belonging, the ordinary triumphs that ground families in their heritage. These stories provide essential "anchor points" that help people understand themselves as part of something greater than themselves.Ready to preserve your own family's legacy? Listen as Dominique shares practical strategies for conducting oral histories with elders and properly documenting family photographs. These simple acts of preservation might be the difference between stories that live on and those lost forever.

"Feelings fully felt is bliss." "Breath is always free." "Self-augmentation is the key."   Episode summary | In this episode of the Return on Generosity podcast, host Shannon Cassidy speaks with Jason Henkel, founder of Focus to Evolve, about achieving balance and productivity without burnout. Jason shares his journey from a hectic corporate life to discovering the importance of self-management and centeredness. He emphasizes the need for leaders to create high-performance teams and the role of architectural calendaring in productivity.

Ultimately, Jason advocates for a shift in workplace culture towards generosity and self-care, encouraging listeners to redefine productivity and prioritize their well-being.   R.O.G. Takeaway Tips | Self-management needs to come before time management. The hustle culture is outdated; balance is key to thriving. Feelings fully felt lead to a blissful life experience.

AI can be used for thought augmentation and identifying blind spots. ADHD can be harnessed as a superpower when managed well. Generosity towards oneself is crucial for personal growth.

Ep. 180 (Part 2 of 2) | In this podcast, John Prendergast, spiritual teacher, depth psychotherapist (retired), and prolific author, eloquently lays out the territory we encounter on the spiritual path as we move towards opening to our deepest ground. John defines deepest ground as “ungraspable and unfathomable, something we can know intimately as a quality of awareness, unbounded and open.” “When we touch into this,” he continues, “we move from a place of love, peace and groundedness.” In working with students and clients over four decades, John says the presence or absence of ground has been the most important theme. John has a gift for communicating exactly what is most useful for a spiritual practitioner to hear: taking an integral and nondual approach different from traditional psychotherapy, he invites us to evoke presence—welcome the experience, welcome the fear of annihilation—let go of ordinary knowledge and allow a translucent, transformative space to emerge around ordinary mind. Blending archetypal wisdom and guidance with spacious emptiness, John explains that opening to unbounded awareness supports the process of individuation and actualization; he also weaves in an intriguing version of the hero's journey, where the hero emerges from the underground, not as a figure of accomplishment and victory, but as a simple, humble being, void of ego. The rich wisdom and gentle guidance offered here is invaluable, worthy of listening to many a time.

(01:55)What is the difference between presence and ground? (04:29)The fear of losing control, of annihilation, that comes up in the process of healing and awakening (06:47)Using the myth of the underground descent, but emerging not as a hero, but simple and humble—devoid of egoic will (09:29)A translucency of the body/mind emerges: a core illumination (13:18)Meditation, self-inquiry, and time with authentic teachers are what have brought John to luminosity (15:09)The connection to one's teacher: for John, this was Jean Klein and Adyashanti (16:25)Back to returning to the world—not as a hero, but where there's no sense of accomplishment and hierarchy disappears (17:55)The tyranny of the enlightenment drive (20:42)Willfulness gradually transforms into willingness (24:07)Individual guidance can come as the small, still voice but also in kinesthetic form (25:25)Are there specific practices that facilitate opening to our deepest ground?

Send us a textThis episode of Light Up Your Worth explores the intersection of financial independence and personal growth with guest Penny Rose, a former forensic accountant turned tax strategist for creators and coaches. The discussion covers key topics for entrepreneurs, including the "Triangle of Freedom" (balancing financial, time, and location independence), transitioning from a traditional job to self-employment, and essential tax strategies for small business owners. Penny shares valuable insights on setting up a strong financial foundation, emphasizing the importance of understanding one's numbers and planning for taxes from the start. The conversation also touches on the challenges and considerations of running a location-independent business, particularly regarding state taxes. Memorable quotes from the episode include:"Knowledge is power. Many of us are afraid to look at our numbers, but you're not able to make the best decisions possible for your own finances if you're afraid to look at your credit card statement or your tax return.""Habits I developed when I had a very small business continue. Because once you get the process set up, and you start doing it, it doesn't matter. You could hundred X your revenue and hopefully not a hundred X your expenses." This discussion relates to the Light Up Your Worth podcast title by empowering midlife women to take control of their financial futures as part of their personal development journey. It encourages listeners to face their financial fears, understand their worth in monetary terms, and make informed decisions about their businesses and lifestyles. The episode illuminates the path to financial independence and location freedom, aligning with the holistic and spiritual mindset of the target audience by showing how practical financial knowledge can support overall life goals and personal growth.Connect with Penny:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mamapreneur_moneypro Thank you for tuning into another illuminating episode of Light Up Your Worth.

This week, we’re joined by Nikki Walton, host of GoOD fMornings with CurlyNikki and an influential voice in personal transformation, who shares her struggles with self-esteem and identity as a young woman to achieving massive success through her groundbreaking platform, CurlyNikki.com. Nikki's life was filled with accomplishments—but also a profound sense of emptiness. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from Tori Hope Petersen, an author, speaker, and podcaster. After enduring twelve different homes in the foster care system, Tori aged out without a permanent family. Through the kindness of a foster mom who introduced her to faith, the guidance of a track coach who became a father figure, and her own unwavering determination, Tori rose above her circumstances to find meaning and mission for her life.

There was still this void. I had not found God and I didn't even know that that's what I was looking for.” - Nikki Walton “I love myself and it's not in that superficial, surface-level love. It's like I went from outer beauty to inner beauty to beyond beauty entirely, and I appear beautiful to some because of His light shining through me.” - Nikki Walton “I listen not for [God’s] voice booming, but for His silence, for His stillness, for His peace, And then I feel His stillness. I feel His peace. I know I'm in contact with Him when I feel lighter.” - Nikki Walton “You can still be aware of that humbled nature, that humbled posture inside. That way, when you go out into the world, even though you are smiling and walking upright, you're still bowing to Jesus everywhere you go.” - Nikki Walton “I had to learn through time that God doesn't just save us, He keeps us.” - Toire Hope Petersen “I do think that God speaks to us in the way that we can understand how to do what's next.” - Tori Hope Petersen “Our brokenness does not just point to the deficit in us. Sometimes our brokenness points to the disciples that we are, points to our faithfulness.” - Tori Hope Petersen “God does not hate you and He doesn't want you to hate yourself. He wants you to embrace who He has called you to be, because when we do that, we can walk out the calling that God has placed on our life. God did a good job making you and you’re allowed to be loved.” - Tori Hope Petersen “God is just so glad when we show up to be in His presence and to pray. He just welcomes me with open arms. He is our safe place.” - Tori Hope Petersen ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!
