Our guest in this episode is Emma Möller, an AI strategist and former diplomat with a fascinating journey from a small village in Sweden to the forefront of global technology strategy. Emma helps leaders navigate the complex systems of AI, drawing on her deep understanding of how the frameworks we build shape our human reality. In our chat, we explore how to embrace AI's potential with a principled and human-centered approach. Key points discussed include:* Design AI systems with intention, recognizing they actively shape our reality and lived experience.* Avoid “intellectual laziness” by using AI as a partner for inquiry, not a replacement for curiosity.* Cultivate your human curiosity through diverse learning to expand your awareness and unlock AI's creative potential.Listen to the podcast to find out more.Innovabiz Substack is a reader-supported publication.

Her journey is as fascinating as her insights, taking her from a small village of 60 people in northern Sweden, deeply connected to nature, to the complex, human-made systems of international policy and now, artificial intelligence. Our conversation was a masterclass in how to approach the incredible power of AI not with blind optimism or fear, but with a principled, human-centered curiosity that feels both vital and reassuring in this rapidly changing world.Emma's perspective is shaped by a profound understanding that the systems we design, be they legal, economic, or technological, fundamentally create the reality we inhabit. She spoke of feeling a disconnect between the rich, sensory experience of her childhood and the generalized, often biased frameworks of the modern world. This lens is what makes her approach to AI so powerful; she sees it not just as code, but as a new and incredibly influential system we are building, and she urges us to be deeply intentional about what kind of reality we want it to create.The Seductive Trap of Becoming ‘Intellectually Lazy'One of the most memorable moments in our chat was when Emma warned against the subtle danger of becoming “intellectually lazy.” It's a brilliant phrase that perfectly captures the seductive ease of letting generative AI do our thinking for us. We've all felt it: the temptation to accept the first answer from ChatGPT without question, or to let it generate prose without infusing it with our own unique perspective and critical thought. Emma reminded us that these tools are often designed to agree with us, which can create an echo chamber if we're not careful.The antidote, she suggests, is to consciously maintain our curiosity and use AI as a partner for deeper inquiry, not as a replacement for it. This really resonated with me. I shared the story of how I used an AI, which I named Yuki, to help plan my recent trip to Japan. Yuki handled the logistical heavy lifting: train schedules, travel times, which freed me up to dive deeper into the history and culture. The AI built the foundation, but the curiosity, the questions, and the actual human experience remained firmly in my hands. It was a perfect example of using the technology to enhance, not diminish, our engagement with the world.The Unscheduled Joy of Getting LostThis led to another beautiful point: the importance of allowing for the unexpected. Emma spoke about how some of the best adventures and innovations come from mistakes, or from getting a little bit lost. An AI can create a perfectly optimized itinerary, but it can't schedule the serendipitous joy of stumbling upon a hidden alleyway or the creative spark that comes from a plan gone awry. If we delegate too much of our decision-making to algorithms, we risk engineering these essential human moments out of our lives.Ultimately, Emma argues that our most powerful tool for navigating the age of AI is our own awareness, which we must actively cultivate. Her advice was wonderfully simple: read books. Talk to people with different perspectives. Spend time in nature. In short, we must continually expand our own “information landscape” so that we can bring richer, more creative questions to the AI. It is, as she puts it, a “mirror of our own awareness,” and will only ever be as insightful as we are.AI as a Leadership Challenge, Not Just a Tech SolutionBringing this into the business world, Emma stressed that successful AI adoption is not a technology problem; it's a leadership and culture challenge. The leaders who are getting it right are not looking for a magic AI solution to plug in. Instead, they are focusing on the real, day-to-day problems their teams face and empowering them to find ways that AI can genuinely help. It's about creating a system for change that supports people, listens to their concerns, and fosters collaboration.This conversation with Emma Möller was a powerful reminder that while technology will continue to evolve at a dizzying pace, the core principles of human-centered progress remain the same. It's about staying curious, taking responsibility for the tools we use, and never losing sight of the fact that the goal of innovation should be to create more space for the messy, beautiful, and irreplaceable experience of being human.The Buzz - Our Innovation RoundHere are Emma's answers to the questions of our innovation round. Listen to the conversation to get the full scoop.* Innovative AI for Human Connection – Using AI to analyze an organization's data to break down internal silos and foster mutual understanding between teams.* Best AI Integration Example – Leveraging voice-to-text tools to work more efficiently, thereby creating more time for screen-free, in-person connection.* Differentiate with Connection – Stay relentlessly curious by reading books and intentionally connecting with new people to learn from their unique perspectives.ActionIf you haven't already, start using AI. Consciously create space to remain curious and make mistakes, and then go outside for a walk to enjoy nature.Reach OutYou can reach out and thank Emma on her website. She also has a wonderful newsletter called The Lumiera Loop.Links:* Website - Lumiera* Lumiera's Newsletter - The Lumiera Loop* LinkedInCool Things About Emma* She's a former diplomat and lawyer. This isn't just a career change; it's a fundamental shift in worlds. Her expertise in AI doesn't come from a typical tech background, but from a deep understanding of human systems, language, and international relations. This unique origin story frames her entire perspective on technology in a fascinating way.* She wants to translate information into smell. In a conversation about large language models and digital artifacts, her most exciting experiment is wonderfully human and unexpected. This reveals a playful, creative, and deeply sensory side that looks for understanding far beyond the screen.* She's a global citizen. Born near a ski resort in the north of Sweden, she later studied at Monash University in Melbourne (Jürgen's alma mater) and now lives and works in Lisbon, Portugal. This isn't just a list of places; it paints a picture of someone who is adaptable and thinks with a naturally global perspective.* She finds text to be an “unnatural medium.” Despite being a self-proclaimed “big fan of languages” and having a background that relied heavily on text, she has come to the conclusion that it's an artificial way for humans to communicate. This intellectual paradox is very cool; it shows she's not afraid to question the very foundations of her own past expertise.Ready to move beyond just creating content and start creating real connection?In the Age of AI, the future belongs to those who can amplify human wisdom.

Readers at Delayed may be aware of our pilgrimages upstate to our home away from home. The long weekends away at a place we affectionately call the ‘Barn' serve as a mental recharge, and rejuvenation of creative inspiration, not to mention time spent together with close friends. During one of last years' editions, we were grateful to spend time with Lisbon based artist, Verena aka Ena B. Her passion for music, and penchant for creating ethereal vocal ambient tracks all contributed to a fit in with our crew of fellow music nerds and producers. Marking a new chapter in her musical career, Ena's forthcoming self release teases a darker, techno edge. She forgoes the light, melodic pads of the past and dives into the depths of a grittier, harder sound. Fernweh, our premiere for today is a slow burner, building tension with every beat. The kicks and spacey textures laying the groundwork for a swelling crescendo of synths later. A moment that would be right gracing any club or dimly lit room, full to the brim with writhing bodies. Building on these themes is a 5 track offering titled, ‘Nightwalk' that will be out soon via Mexican imprint Secuencias Temporales. Between the two releases, it's a 1-2 punch of deep techno, and breaks that shows off her production chops. Fernweh will be out on her Bandcamp, the 3rd of October. @enabofficial www.instagram.com/enabofficial/ Write up by @huedj Follow us on social media: @itsdelayed linktr.ee/delayed www.delayed.nyc www.facebook.com/itsdelayed www.instagram.com/_____delayed www.youtube.com/@_____delayed Contact us: info@delayed.nyc

A tiny microstate nestled between Spain and Portugal, Couto Misto existed for centuries until its dissolution on 29th September, 1864. The final act of the Portuguese Restoration War, a treaty in Lisbon saw Spain claim the lion's share of the land, while Portugal reclaimed its independence after 60 years of Spanish rule. The Misto people were something special. They didn't fully identify as either Spanish or Portuguese, but rather Galician, speaking a dialect that wasn't quite one or the other. Despite it's size, Misto had its own legal system, its own customs, and even a chest of important state documents protected by three locks, opened by senior politicians from each of the nation's three major villages. Arion, Rebecca and Olly agonise about whether to carve a “P” for Portugal or a “G” for Galicia on their own homes; explain how traders and smugglers thrived on ‘the Privileged Path' through the tiny country; and reveal how its people's split loyalties would manifest at weddings… Further Reading: • ‘The Couto Misto - A nearly forgotten story' (European Heritage Days): https://www.europeanheritagedays.com/Story/The-Couto-Misto-A-nearly-forgotten-story • 'Princely Tongues: The Languages of Europe's Five Smallest Countries' (Macro Neves, 2022): https://marconeves.substack.com/p/princely-tongues-the-languages-of • 'Little Europe: Five Micro-Countries' (Rick Steves' Europe, 2013): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f6sz8ysrNJU This episode was first published in 2024 Thanks so much for supporting the show!

Send us a textEver wondered how Web3 technology is transforming the sports prediction landscape? Will Martin, founder of LiveDuel, shares his journey from economics student to innovative entrepreneur at the intersection of DeFi and sports engagement.The LiveDuel platform stands apart by solving a fundamental market inefficiency. While traditional sports betting operates through thousands of separate operators with fragmented liquidity pools, LiveDuel applies decentralized finance principles to create a unified global ecosystem. Their Oracle-aware automatic market maker and consolidated liquidity pool delivers better pricing while distributing transaction fees among all participants—the platform, liquidity providers, and content creators.What truly sets LiveDuel apart is their revolutionary marketing approach. Their TikTok prediction filters have been used by 600,000 creators, generating a staggering 750 million views and thousands of organic signups. These filters allow users to create engaging prediction videos for major tournaments simply by moving their heads to make selections, sparking natural engagement as fans debate and react to predictions. As Will quotes from Gary Vee, "organic reach measures relevance," and LiveDuel has certainly proven its relevance in sports conversations.The platform carefully balances Web3 innovation with accessibility. Rather than forcing users through complicated wallet setups, LiveDuel abstracts away technical complexities while maintaining blockchain benefits behind the scenes. This approach caters perfectly to their primary audience—passionate sports fans aged 23-34 from regions where football isn't just entertainment but religion.Looking forward, LiveDuel is monitoring regulatory developments in the United States while developing new creator tools, including live streaming capabilities that acknowledge the full timeline of sports fandom—before, during, and after games. The vision? A truly global, interconnected prediction experience enhanced by community engagement.This episode was recorded at SBC Summit in Lisbon on September 18, 2025.

Episode Overview In this episode of the John Kitchens Coach Podcast, John sits down with Portuguese real estate leaders Rodolffo Carvalho and Nuno Batista to unpack their journey of disrupting one of Europe's toughest real estate markets. From breaking free of legacy brands like Century 21 to building Portugal's #1 eXp Realty team, they share how mindset, perseverance, and innovation helped them create explosive growth in an environment with no MLS, limited data access, and outdated practices. This is a masterclass in faith, consistency, and execution—a story of how two agents trusted the process, built proof, and are now leading an expansion movement that's changing the way real estate is done in Portugal. What You'll Learn in This Episode Breaking Into the Market The unique challenges of selling real estate in Portugal (no MLS, watermarked listings, fragmented data). Why 80% of new agents quit within months—and how to survive beyond the early hits. The critical decision to go all-in on listings over buyers. Building Proof & Momentum Why mindset and perseverance were the foundation for success. The three phases of their growth journey: mindset, execution, and consolidation. How they doubled GCI year over year by staying consistent with ads, social media, and training. Marketing & Expansion The game-changing move to partner with a marketing agency for scale. How investing in branding and content positioned them as market leaders. Why proof had to come before recruiting—and how patience set the stage for expansion. Leading with Value The value proposition they now offer agents: lead generation, training, and on-the-ground support. Why helping agents “work smart” (not just hard) creates long-term loyalty. How they're building a revenue share team and a leadership hub in Lisbon to support growth. Resources & Mentions John Kitchens Executive Coaching → eXp Realty – Global growth platform Rick Rubin, The Creative Act: A Way of Being Eric Post – huzi.ai Final Takeaway Success in real estate doesn't come from following the crowd—it comes from trusting the process, building proof, and leading with value.

Memorial of Saint Peter Claver, Priest: September 9 (Fr. Kevin MacDonald, C.Ss.R.)

The Good Word

Play Episode Listen Later Sep 9, 2025 4:00


Sometimes a small step in the wrong direction can be magnified by factors such as greed and willful moral blindness. This was the case seventy years before St. Peter Claver was born to a farming family outside of Barcelona, Spain in 1580. King Ferdinand of Spain authorized the purchase of 250 African slaves in Lisbon for his territories in New Spain. One hundred years later, 10,000 African slaves were arriving every year to the New Kingdom of Granada, today known as Columbia. The king's small decision to supposedly help farmers and landowners in New Spain meet their need for laborers allowed the slave trade to grow to epidemic proportions throughout the Americas.  St. Peter's life's work as a Jesuit priest was helping the men and women who arrived sick, exhausted, and maltreated to the port city of Cartagena. He would meet the ships upon their arrival and go down into the holds where the human cargo was packed tightly together. It is estimated that one third of the men and women died in transit. Peter would carry medicine, food, bread, and lemons to those who survived. He attended to their human needs first and then, over time, tried his best to meet their spiritual needs.  Peter also preached the Gospel message to the merchants, sailors, and ship owners. He tried to impress upon them that we are all human beings and that we have a common need to be treated with dignity and respect. When he visited the plantations where the African slaves were working, he would stay with them rather than in the comfortable homes of the landowners. He preached in the city squares, country areas, and was often among the sick in the hospitals. Fellow Jesuit Fr. John Hardon could have been reflecting on the life of Peter Claver when he wrote: “Love is shown more in deeds than in words. Love does not mean that I like doing what I'm doing, love means that I do it, and the doing is your love.”    Over the course of his life, the conservative estimate is that Peter baptized 300,000 people - and he continued his instructions after they were baptized by distributing holy pictures and having translators help him to preach. He heard 5,000 confessions on a yearly basis. It should be no surprise that his last years were filled with ill health. Unable to leave his room, his community assigned an ex-slave to attend to his needs. Unfortunately, this man mistreated Fr. Claver and stole his food. Peter did not complain, seeing his ill treatment as a penance for his sins. When he died on September 8, 1654, word spread quickly. People came from all over the countryside to visit his room, which was soon stripped of everything that might be considered a relic. His life was such a heroic example of the Christian praxis of love and the exercise of human rights that September 9th, the day after Peter's death, is celebrated today in Columbia as Human Rights Day.  St. Peter Claver, friend of the marginalized and oppressed, pray for us.   Blessings, Fr. Kevin MacDonald, C.Ss.R.
