In this episode of Practical AI, Chris and Daniel explore the fascinating world of agentic AI for drone and robotic swarms, which is Chris's passion and professional focus. They unpack how autonomous vehicles (UxV), drones (UaV), and other autonomous multi-agent systems can collaborate without centralized control while exhibiting complex emergent behavior with agency and self-governance to accomplish a mission or shared goals. Chris and Dan delve into the role of AI real-time inference and edge computing to enable complex agentic multi-model autonomy, especially in challenging environments like disaster zones and remote industrial operations.Featuring:Chris Benson – Website, LinkedIn, Bluesky, GitHub, XDaniel Whitenack – Website, GitHub, XLinks:ROS - Robotic Operating SystemGazeboHugging Face Agents CourseSwarm Robotics | WikipediaChris's definition of Swarming:Swarming occurs when numerous independent fully-autonomous multi-agentic platforms exhibit highly-coordinated locomotive and emergent behaviors with agency and self-governance in any domain (air, ground, sea, undersea, space), functioning as a single independent logical distributed decentralized decisioning entity for purposes of C3 (command, control, communications) with human operators on-the-loop, to implement actions that achieve strategic, tactical, or operational effects in the furtherance of a mission.© 2025 Chris BensonSponsors:Outshift by Cisco: AGNTCY is an open source collective building the Internet of Agents.

By Sarah Bird, who is a professional business writer and editor with more than 30 years of experience working with large corporate organisations. As we enter the era of automation and artificial intelligence (AI), business leaders should encourage employees to make human stories their differentiator. When I spoke with Bobby Kerr recently on his "Down to Business" podcast about midlife career transformation, his parting comment was: "Well I'll be 65 this year and hopefully there's some hope for me in the employment market!" With his ample helping of Irish charm and interview skills, I can't imagine Bobby being out of work any time soon. But there are plenty of other people who have found themselves unemployed - myself included. After 30 years of consistent freelance work as a business writer with a global management consultancy, I was "let go" in favour of AI software. An indication of who's winning in the "man versus machine" debate or an opportunity to change our career narrative? From neural networks to narratives Recent research supports the idea that midlifers may be struggling more than most. The World Health Organization has acknowledged that every second person in the world is believed to hold ageist attitudes. While nearly one in five over 55s (19%) responded to another study that they did not feel confident enough in their current skillset to find new employment or pivot their career if they were to lose their current job, compared with one in 10 (8%) of under 55s. Even the national press notes bias for those seeking work in their 50s and 60s, made worse by automated application tracking systems and algorithms. As one candidate summed up: "After six months of tumbleweed, it got to the point that I had to stop job-hunting for the sake of my mental health. I felt completely invisible". Fears and concerns are often fuelled by the positioning of technology and its influence on the workforce. In 2023, an MIT Technology Review article reported an interview between the UK prime minister at the time, Rishi Sunak, and Elon Musk where the latter declared there will come a time when "no job is needed," thanks to an AI "magic genie that can do everything you want". Embrace multi-storied lives But it's easy to hear only one side of the story. As we learn more about the brain, we recognise that firing neurons repeatedly creates pathways in the brain - and can mean negative stories stick. Yet we all have access to neuroplasticity; that is, our brain's ability to rewire itself. Studies among midlifers show it's still possible to develop new neural pathways even later in life by undertaking such tasks as learning a new language or a musical instrument. Adapting our mindsets has become even more critical in recent years. Since the pandemic, our personal and professional lives have blended in an unprecedented way, opening the door to some of the techniques that separated those lives in the past. One such technique is Narrative Practice. The birthchild of therapists Michael White and David Epston, Narrative Practice helps people to express deep seated concerns or challenges and uses powerful storytelling tools to liberate those who feel stuck with thoughts or behaviours that are questionable, inaccurate or simply unhelpful. Based on the idea that we are all experts in our own lives, Narrative Practice is a respectful, non-blaming approach that focuses on empowering the individual - and can be adapted to enhance the workforce of the future. Applying these tools could benefit leaders and innovate the retention and engagement of the workforce by externalising problems to diffuse challenging situations, reframing personal narratives to encourage authenticity and reinventing the narrative across the business to spur collaboration. Three steps to career storytelling No matter what our age, we're all work-in-progress. Reframing thoughts and attitudes is not easy but accepting that resilience is a lifelong project and making storytelling part...
In this technical deep-dive episode, Generation AI hosts Ardis Kadiu and Dr. JC Bonilla unpack Andre Karpathy's groundbreaking keynote on "Software 3.0" - the third revolution in how we tell computers what to do. They explore how we've moved from writing explicit code (Software 1.0) through neural networks (Software 2.0) to programming in plain English with LLMs (Software 3.0). The discussion reveals why LLMs represent a new computing paradigm comparable to the shift from mainframes to personal computers, and why Karpathy believes we're still in the "1960s era" of this revolution. Most importantly, they examine the massive opportunities this creates - from rebuilding infrastructure to creating agent-first applications - and why every software company needs to adapt or risk disruption. Whether you're a developer, entrepreneur, or education professional, this episode provides essential insights into the decade-long transformation ahead.Introduction and Context Setting (00:00:07)Decision to do a "geeky episode" after last week's personal discussionIntroduction to Andre Karpathy's Y Combinator keynote "Software is Evolving Again"Karpathy's background: Tesla self-driving, OpenAI co-founderSetting up the framework for understanding software evolutionSoftware 1.0: The Era of Explicit Instructions (00:03:55)Timeline: 1950s to 2010sProgramming with explicit instructions in languages like Python, C, COBOLDeterministic and predictable behaviorExample: Writing functions to classify spam emails with specific keywordsHow traditional developers were trained in this paradigmSoftware 2.0: Neural Networks as Programs (00:04:59)Timeline: 2010s to 2020sPrograms written as neural network weights instead of codeHumans become data curators rather than code writersTraining as the new form of "compiling" programsExample: Training neural networks on billions of emails for spam detectionThe shift from deterministic to probabilistic programmingSoftware 3.0: Natural Language Programming (00:07:00)Timeline: 2020s onwardProgramming in English through promptingLLMs as programmable computersEveryone becomes a programmerExample: Simply asking an LLM to "classify this email as spam or not"The democratization of programmingLLMs as the New Operating System (00:10:26)Three perspectives: utilities, fabrication plants, and operating systemsLLMs as utilities: like electricity, metered access, high reliabilityLLMs as fabs: enormous capital requirements, deep technical secretsLLMs as OS: new computing platform with CPU (LLM) and RAM (context window)Comparison to 1960s mainframe era -

In the first episode of an "AI in the shadows" theme, Chris and Daniel explore the increasing concerning world of agentic misalignment. Starting out with a reminder about hallucinations and reasoning models, they break down how today's models only mimic reasoning, which can lead to serious ethical considerations. They unpack a fascinating (and slightly terrifying) new study from Anthropic, where agentic AI models were caught simulating blackmail, deception, and even sabotage — all in the name of goal completion and self-preservation.

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, I, Stewart Alsop, sit down with returning guest Brian Ahuja to explore a thought-provoking idea he's been stewing on—could we one day build a robot capable of true partner dancing? From the biomechanics of salsa to the possibilities of AI embodiment, we unpack what it would take to engineer fluid, responsive movement and how that intersects with everything from artificial muscles to the intimacy of tactile feedback. We also touch on Brian's long-term vision for a potential lab or foundation to tackle this challenge. You can follow Brian and future developments on Twitter @brianahuja.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 – Brian Ahuja returns to discuss AI embodiment, sparked by his experience in ballroom dance and curiosity about translating physical intelligence into robotics.05:00 – They explore robotics in partner dancing, touching on the difference between choreographed motion and improvisational, responsive movement.10:00 – Brian breaks down human biomechanics, emphasizing that hip motion in dances like salsa originates from knees and feet—not the hips directly.15:00 – The conversation shifts to balance, proprioception, and ocular reflexes, linking them to movement stability in dance.20:00 – They compare robot vs. human movement, noting robots' jerky motions and the absence of muscle-based initiation.25:00 – The need for haptic feedback is discussed, with Brian detailing how partner dancing depends on tactile signals and real-time response.30:00 – They touch on robotic form factors, questioning whether humanoid robots are the best approach and pondering the design of artificial muscles.35:00 – Brian proposes the idea of the Ahuja Test, gauging if a robot can move so fluidly it's indistinguishable from a human, using dance as the standard.Key InsightsPartner Dancing as a Frontier for Robotics: Brian Ahuja proposes that partner dancing could be a benchmark for robotic embodiment, where success would indicate a robot's ability to replicate fluid, responsive human movement. This task is far more complex than solo choreography—it requires real-time tactile feedback, improvisation, and nuanced physical communication.Movement Origin in Humans vs. Robots: A critical difference lies in how movement is generated. Human motion begins with muscle contraction, not at the joints. Robots, however, typically initiate movement at joint points, missing the layered interplay of muscles, tendons, and fascia that create smooth, lifelike motion.Haptic Feedback and Improvisation: Real partner dancing involves subtle cues, like pressure through fingertips, to signal direction and timing. For a robot to follow or lead a dance, it would need a highly sensitive haptic feedback system capable of interpreting and responding to these nonverbal signals in real time.The Limits of Current Robotics: Even with advanced robots like the Tesla bot, current movement still appears jerky and lacks the fluidity needed for partner dancing. The mechanical design—especially the lack of artificial musculature—may impose fundamental limits on how closely robots can mimic human motion.Applications Beyond Dance: The implications of this inquiry stretch beyond dance into fields like physical therapy, elder care, and domestic robotics. A robot that could move like a human could handle tasks requiring adaptability, precision, and physical sensitivity.Vision and Systems Thinking: Brian frames the challenge as a systems problem that might start with a lab or foundation. He emphasizes not needing to do everything alone, recognizing the value of building knowledge iteratively through conversations, research, and community.The Ahuja Test: Inspired by the Turing Test, Brian coins the idea of the “Ahuja Test”—a way to measure if a robot can move indistinguishably from a human. He suggests partner dancing could serve as the ultimate proving ground for such a test, given its demand for embodied intelligence and nuanced coordination.
Electrolytes are seemingly suddenly everywhere: on store shelves, in wellness drinks, and all over your social feed. But is adding salt to your water really the answer to fewer migraines? Or is there way more going on beneath the surface? In this episode, we're diving deep into the often-misunderstood world of sodium and potassium, and why their delicate balance can make or break your migraine symptoms. You'll discover what researchers have been uncovering since the 1950s about the way migraine-prone brains handle salt differently, and why so many women unknowingly sabotage their progress by overlooking this one powerful piece of the puzzle. If you've been curious about using electrolytes as a tool to take back control from your migraines, this will help you understand how your body processes them, how imbalance might be fueling your pain, and what you can do to live pain-free. In this episode, you'll hear: Why migraine sufferers may process sodium differently at the cellular level What current research says about salt, potassium, and brain signaling Why the “add salt to your water” advice isn't one-size-fits-all How electrolyte symmetry is a cornerstone of the FFMM® approach Why standard electrolyte testing often misses the full picture How nutrition, sleep, movement, and mindset all play a role in your internal balance What to know before adjusting sodium or potassium levels on your own Resources: → Ep. 77: A Closer Look at Electrolyte Tests and What They Really Tell Us Listen to it here: https://sites.libsyn.com/498553/a-closer-look-at-electrolyte-tests-and-what-they-really-tell-us → The Freedom From Migraines Method Membership® Understanding how sodium and potassium impact your migraines is an empowering step toward finding freedom.

Ofir Bibi grew up in Jerusalem, and is where he is today because of his love for photography. He has always been a tinkerer, taking apart of radios and such, and was drawn to the early days of training neural networks and computational photography. He spent a number of years in academia, but eventually was drawn outside of that world. Outside of tech, he is married with 3 boys who play sports. His family is surrounded by nature, so they enjoy biking and walking as much as they can.In 2012, a company was formed around bridging the gap between imagination and creation, through video, apps, and studio grade tools. Ofir recently celebrated 10 years with the company, and came in with the title "Neural Networks" guy.This is Ofir's creation story of Lightricks.SponsorsPaddle.comSema SoftwarePropelAuthPostmanMeilisearchLinkshttps://www.lightricks.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/ofirbb/Our Sponsors:* Check out Kinsta: https://kinsta.com* Check out Vanta: https://vanta.com/CODESTORYSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/code-story/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

She is not only a psychiatrist — she is an integrative alchemist of mind, body, and spirit. A public speaker. A teacher. A researcher. And above all, a deeply sensible human—guided by kindness, lit by love, and moved by compassion as a way of living.From the frontline of transformation, she serves with fierce gentleness as Head of Psychiatry at Equipo Libertador, an Argentinean clinic reshaping how we understand and care for eating disorders. She co-founded the Psychedelic Task Force within the Argentine Psychiatrists Association and stands tall as a member of Educannar, leading the charge in cannabis and psychedelic education and research.Trained across modalities — systemic, cognitive, contextual, and psychedelic-assisted therapy… fluent in endocannabinology, phytotherapy, mycotherapy, and functional medicine — she is a living bridge between ancient plant wisdom and future neurofrontiers.She is a teacher of postgraduate minds, a trainer of resident physicians, and an unshakable advocate for human rights, anti-ableism, and neuroaffirmative practices.She doesn't just work in mental health — she reimagines it, embodying a contextual, compassionate approach to consciousness and connection.Prepare yourself, dear listener. Because today we welcome a voice who reminds us that healing isn't sterile — it's sacred. That psychiatry isn't just clinical — it's cosmic. And that love, above all, is still the most radical medicine of them all.http://linkedin.com/in/lucia-levenberg https://www.instagram.com/dra.luciaele/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

A truth-seeker.And when she speaks — the room listens, not with their ears,but with their bones.This isn't just another episode.This is a leap — an invitation to flow, to awaken, to dare.So buckle up, tune in, and expand outward…Because today, we welcome the wise, the wild, the wondrous:Verónica.https://www.facebook.com/fundacionquilago?mibextid=wwXIfrhttps://www.instagram.com/fundacionquilago/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaHe doesn't offer therapy.He offers amputation—of illusion, of ego, of everything that keeps you from the truth.Vicente Alonso is not here to fix you.He's here to dismantle you—quietly, precisely, without apology.Trained in Gestalt, but tempered by a decade in the shadow of Dr. Claudio Naranjo,Vicente doesn't guide with words.He hunts with presence.Ibogaine is not a tool in his hand.It's the blade he honed on his own soul.Meditation made him still.Suffering made him exact.Now he moves like a sniper through the psyche—tracking trauma through breath, memory, and myth.As co-founder of AH-Samatā and director of IbogaQuest,he's built a method where neuroscience kneels before the sacred,and therapy becomes ritual dissection.This isn't healing.It's psychic surgery under candlelight.No anesthesia. No escape.This is Vicente.Step in only if you're ready to die to who you were—and live like the wound never lied.https://www.ibogaquest.com/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaLewis Goldberg Ladies and gentlemen, seekers of signal in the static,allow me to introduce a voice forged in the alchemical fireof policy, purpose, and paradox.Lewis Goldberg is not just a publicist.He's a linguistic locksmith,a master of messaging who doesn't just shape narratives —he whispers to the current underneath them.With the war drums of old Washington echoing in his blood,he cut his teeth in the mythos of power:Clinton's campaign trail, Torricelli's tightropes,the ever-calculating eye of a First Lady named Hillary.But then —like any good archetypal wanderer —he turned toward the plant path.Toward cannabis, toward psychedelics,toward the revolution happening beneath our feet.He didn't just pivot — he prophesied.In 2015, he helped launch KCSA's cannabis division,giving shape and story to an industryrising like smoke through the cracks of a crumbling paradigm.He co-hosts The Green Rush,a podcast that is part intelligence briefing,part esoteric transmission for the business-minded psychonaut.And while some men worship quarterly reports,Lewis builds cathedrals in the stock ticker —rooting for the underdogs,channeling the sacred absurdity of Mets games,Jets heartbreaks,and the eternal optimism of Rutgers fanswho believe — against all odds —that truth, like victory, can be summoned with enough heart.So today, as we stand on the thresholdof Psychedelic Science 2025,we welcome not just a strategist —but a conjurer of attention.A myth-maker of market forces.A Blakean bard in a tailored blazerwho reminds us that even in the most corporate corners of culture…something sacred still wants to break through.Give it up for Lewis Goldberg.

It's a summoning.)They are not healers…They are system-sabotaging, pharmaceutically-disobedient shadow surgeonsdisguised as womenwho came not to integrate with the machine—but to lovingly dismantle it from the inside.Jennifer Zuckerman walks like she remembers the burning templesof medicine,and she's here with a torch and a playlist.White coat? Gone.Now it's tinctures, trauma maps, and prescription pad arson.She doesn't taper meds—she liberates identities wrapped in child-proof caps.She's the bridge between clinical protocol and cosmic remembrance,reminding you that healing isn't sterile—it's wild, erotic, terrifying, and sacred.She doesn't treat patients.She resurrects forgotten gods buried under a decade of SSRIs.⸻Then there's Stephanie Karzon,clinical neuropharmacologist and operational hitwoman for the new paradigm.She's the kind of woman who can turn an Excel sheetinto an occult artifact,a protocol into a prophecy,and a strategy session into a reality distortion fieldwhere logic and magic shake hands and start a band.She's part oracle, part hacker, part psychedelic systems saboteur.Her workflows breathe. Her molecules plot.She's redesigning healing itself—not to fit the system,but to make the system irrelevant.You don't hire Stephanie to fix things.You summon her when it's time to burn down the lie of “efficiency”and replace it with sacred recursion, intuitive intelligence, and bioluminescent logistics.⸻Together—Jennifer and Stephanie—aren't part of a movement.They're the rupture.The mycelial insurgents crawling beneath the hospital floorboards.The ones who plant psilocybin in your care planand call it “a necessary correction.”This isn't wellness.This is the sacred rewilding of medicine.This isn't healthcare.It's a feral uprising with a stethoscope and a serpent drum.You thought you came to listen?You came to remember.Welcome to the frontlineof the ritual reprogrammingof everything you were told healing had to be.Let's begin.https://linktr.ee/steph__k?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=ef7a3580-8859-439d-b7b5-9fd55a4a11b9https://iresonatehealth.com/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima
AI is big these days. Massive. More parameters, more memory, more capability. But what if the future is in tiny AI. Neural networks as small at 8 kilobytes on tiny chips, embedded in everything?Think smart shoes.Smart doors.Smart ... everythingIn this episode of TechFirst, host John Koetsier discusses the future of smart devices with Yubei Chen, co-founder of AIzip. The conversation explores how small-scale AI can revolutionize everyday objects like shoes, cameras, and baby monitors. They delve into how edge AI, which operates at the device level rather than in the cloud, can create efficient, reliable, and cost-effective smart solutions. Chen explains the potential and challenges of integrating AI into traditional devices, including the hardware and software requirements, and touches on the implications for product quality, safety, and cost. This insightful discussion provides a look into the near future of ubiquitous, intelligent technology in our daily lives.00:00 Introduction to Smart Matter01:17 Examples of Smart Applications03:40 Building Efficient AI Models04:01 The Future of Edge AI09:32 Hardware for Smart Devices11:52 Potential Downsides and Challenges18:14 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

From the concrete cracks of rebellion and the sacred chaos of altered states, Joshua Moyer is that rare breed: part street poet, part sonic alchemist, part underground prophet.He built the full soundtrack to my psychedelic science art challenge—played every instrument, wrote every lyric, and bled every note like a sermon on the run. Guitar riffs like back-alley prayers. Handpan rhythms that echo in the bones. This wasn't background music—it was ritual sound design for a new kind of revolution.Joshua ain't here to perform. He's here to ignite.He walks with the ones who speak in flame—those born from wound, not womb. He doesn't ask permission from the institutions. He builds temples in the ruins they left behind. His art? It's rebellion. It's remembrance. It's resistance wrapped in melody.If you're looking for safe, skip this one.If you're ready to rewire your senses and meet a man who turns suffering into symphony—welcome to the transmission.Here's Joshua Moyer.Absolutely—here's a fierce and poetic list of questions designed to pull brilliance into the open, bridging sound artistry with revolution and evolution.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaAnders BeattyTonight, we tear back the curtain and torch the altar of the false gods.Because the sacred has been sold.The medicine commodified.The healing — haggled like cheap incense in a back-alley bazaar of white coats and stock options.But not here. Not now.If Alan Watts were here, high as heaven and laughing through eternity,he'd be standing next to Blake, eyes aflame with angels and anarchy,and Alfred North Whitehead, nodding solemnly,watching reality bend and pulse beneath the weight of unspoken truths.They'd speak of a man like Anders Beatty.Not a practitioner.A myth in motion.A survivor of the abyss who returned not to lecture —but to liberate.He didn't read about healing.He bled for it.He took the poison, met the ghosts,and came back with fire in his chest.Anders doesn't speak the language of pharma boardrooms or TED Talks.He speaks in stories, in scars, in the tremble of soul before rebirth.He is what happens when integrity survives the inferno.And now — the same forces that peddle wellness like toothpasteare circling the last true sacraments.Ibogaine — fierce, ancient, untamed —is being dragged toward the chopping block of scalability.But Anders stands as a living shield,saying: Not this one. Not this time.He's here to remind us:healing was never meant to be scalable.The sacred was never meant to be safe.And medicine was never meant to kneel to margin calls.So tonight —Forget the guidelines.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaRev. Dr. Jessica Rochester: In an age where plant medicines are paraded like commoditiesand sacred sacraments are filtered through the sterile lens of profit and protocol,there stands a bridge—woven not from theory,but from decades of devotion,grit, and grace.Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester is that bridge.Madrinha. President. Torchbearer.Founder of Céu do Montréal, the Santo Daime Church she brought into being in 1997—not as a rebellion,but as a restoration of sacred memoryto the North.A transpersonal counselor forged in the crucibles of Assagioli and Grof,she speaks the languages of the soul and the somatic,guiding seekers not around, but through the sacred fire of self-confrontation.She walked the bureaucratic labyrinth from 2000 to 2017,securing a Section 56 Exemption—not for fame,but to protect the sacrament of Santo Daime from the cold fists of the state.She is an ordained Interfaith Minister,a Doctor of Divinity,and an author whose two-volume opus—Ayahuasca Awakening—is less a book and more a mapfor those ready to take off their masksand meet the jaguar within.For over four decades she has led workshops,held private practice,stood at the crossroads of consciousness and culture,teaching not how to escape,but how to embodythe radical act of spiritual adulthood.And today,while the psychedelic renaissance sells peak experiences,Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester whispers of something older,quieter,stronger—The long walk home.The humble medicine of self-care,self-mastery,and sacred discipline.So if you came for a keynote speaker,step aside.If you came for a true guidebetween the seen and unseen,prepare your heart.Because the Madrinha is not here to entertain you.She is here to remind you who you werebefore the world told you who to be.https://www.revdrjessicarochester.com/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

He's led teams, advised startups, burned through playbooks, and emerged on the other side with only one message:“If you're still measuring success in metrics, you're already dead.”This ain't about products.This is about prophets.This is about dismantling the assembly line of your life, and replacing it with a playground of the possible.This is about ROI becoming R.O.I.—Return On Inner-fucking-anarchy.So light a match, kiss your five-year plan goodbye, and let Sabba take you somewhere your HR department doesn't have a policy for.This is the conversation at the end of the world.And you're late for the bus.http://linkedin.com/in/sabbanazhandhttps://www.joinsafar.com/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Tonight's journey is not for the faint.We're stepping through the rupture,into a tempest where thought becomes thunder and silence screams.Alex Detmering isn't just your guide—he's the rebellion incarnate, the sacred wildfire burning down the old worldso the new can rise from its ashes, screaming and free.http://alexdetmering.com/http://linkedin.com/in/alex-detmering Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaVoyage of Initiation 2GEORGE:I'm George Monty—a voice from the borderlands,where psyche meets spirit and the ego dissolves into symbol.I've wandered the architecture of dream and shadow,not to escape—but to retrieve the gold buried in grief.I do not guide—I provoke.I am not here to teach—I am here to remind.That your suffering is a cipher,your madness—a map.And somewhere in the ruins of reason,your soul is still whispering.JESSICA:And walking beside me is Jessica Tracy—a soul-listener,a witness to the sacred unraveling.She stands at the threshold of grief and grace,where trauma is not a diagnosis,but a doorway to deeper knowing.Jessica has walked with death,and returned with the scent of the eternal on her skin.She holds space the way a tree holds lightning—still, rooted, radiant.Not to fix, not to save,but to remember what the soul has always known.TOGETHER:This is The Voyage of Initiation—a ritual of return.A remembering of the soul's paththrough psyche, symbol, shadow, and star.Here, we do not numb the ache.We kneel beside it,until it speaks.Absolutely. Below is a set of talking points for Voyage of Initiation — designed to be not only unique and powerful but esoteric, unforgettable, mythopoetic, and soul-resonant. These are more than conversation starters; they're portals to profound dialogue. Each one is a point of initiation itself, inviting guests and audiences alike to walk through the fire.https://www.jessicathejungian.coach/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaDr. Deborah C. Mash is not just a scientist.She is the space between the question and the cureA translator between the language of neurons and the speech of the sacred.For more than two decades, with the full force of the National Institute on Drug Abuse behind her, she walked a razor's edge—between chemistry and ceremony, between the morgue and the miracle.Emeritus Professor of Neurology and Molecular Pharmacology at the University of Miami.But more importantly:One of the first to say what no one else dared—that ibogaine, this strange plant from the equator of myth, could be the key not just to breaking addiction…but to restoring the human story.In 1993, while most of medicine still clung to the pharmaceutical dream,she brought ibogaine to the FDA and said,“This belongs in the light.”Then spent nearly a decade in St. Kitts, not on sabbatical, but in spiritual triage—guiding the desperate, the forgotten, the reborn.She discovered noribogaine, the hidden messenger,the afterglow chemical of change,the note behind the note.And now, as CEO and co-founder of DemeRx,she's leading the charge to bring this ancient medicine into the future—not as folklore, but as evidence-based deliverance.Alan Watts told us that “You are an aperture through which the universe is looking at and exploring itself.”Dr. Mash built the microscope to prove it.This isn't medicine.It's myth rewritten in peer-reviewed journals.This isn't just pharmacology.It's the soft thunder of redemption under a lab coat.So lean in close.Because when Deborah speaks,you don't just hear data—you feel the flame of a woman who walked into the darkand returned with the map.Deborah C.

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaSadie KaufmanShe was supposed to be a lawyer. Columbia-trained. Ivy-polished. Ready to argue in courtrooms built on marble and legacy. But life had other plans—plans scribbled in blood sugar charts, sleepless nights, and biochemical chaos. Her body became the battleground where Western medicine failed and ancient wisdom took root.When Sadie Kaufman was diagnosed with pre-diabetes and hormone dysfunction in her twenties, she didn't just seek help—she declared war. A rebel in a vegan womb, raised by health-conscious parents, she realized the system had fed her dogma without discernment. So she left the script behind and wrote her own—in blood, sweat, microbes, and metabolic fire.From 2000 to 2006, she dove headfirst into the molecular river. Studying microbiology and advanced biochemistry at Columbia by day, decoding her own internal wilderness by night. She read her body like a sacred codex, one test tube at a time. She began crafting what would become a revolutionary framework—The Sadie Kaufman Method—a roadmap for reclaiming sovereignty over your cells.By 2010, after training in metabolic nutrition and transformational coaching, Sadie opened her practice—and word spread like wildfire through hushed whispers and long-distance referrals. Now, her clients span continents, cultures, and belief systems, drawn to her unique fusion of science, spirit, and no-BS truth-telling.She doesn't promise you easy answers. She gives you tools. Data. Grit. And the audacity to trust your body like it's your oracle.This is not nutrition as trend. This is medicine as myth reborn. This is Sadie—a biochemical priestess in a lab coat with dirt on her boots and a machete in her hand, cutting through the jungle of misinformation to lead you back to the temple of your own metabolism.Please welcome the warrior scientist, the rural alchemist, the woman who turned her diagnosis into a revolution—Sadie Kaufman.SadieKaufmanMethodhttps://www.instagram.com/sadiekaufmanmethod?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaRev. Dr. Jessica Rochester: In an age where plant medicines are paraded like commoditiesand sacred sacraments are filtered through the sterile lens of profit and protocol,there stands a bridge—woven not from theory,but from decades of devotion,grit, and grace.Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester is that bridge.Madrinha. President. Torchbearer.Founder of Céu do Montréal, the Santo Daime Church she brought into being in 1997—not as a rebellion,but as a restoration of sacred memoryto the North.A transpersonal counselor forged in the crucibles of Assagioli and Grof,she speaks the languages of the soul and the somatic,guiding seekers not around, but through the sacred fire of self-confrontation.She walked the bureaucratic labyrinth from 2000 to 2017,securing a Section 56 Exemption—not for fame,but to protect the sacrament of Santo Daime from the cold fists of the state.She is an ordained Interfaith Minister,a Doctor of Divinity,and an author whose two-volume opus—Ayahuasca Awakening—is less a book and more a mapfor those ready to take off their masksand meet the jaguar within.For over four decades she has led workshops,held private practice,stood at the crossroads of consciousness and culture,teaching not how to escape,but how to embodythe radical act of spiritual adulthood.And today,while the psychedelic renaissance sells peak experiences,Rev. Dr. Jessica Rochester whispers of something older,quieter,stronger—The long walk home.The humble medicine of self-care,self-mastery,and sacred discipline.So if you came for a keynote speaker,step aside.If you came for a true guidebetween the seen and unseen,prepare your heart.Because the Madrinha is not here to entertain you.She is here to remind you who you werebefore the world told you who to be.⸻https://www.revdrjessicarochester.com/https://psychedelicscene.com/2024/06/20/entheogens-psychedelics-nosc-and-the-search-for-wholeness/ Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Codex Serafini: https://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-animaAsha Caravelli: The Flame Before the AlgorithmsWhile the West holds its ceremonies in PowerPoints,and titrates trauma like a spreadsheet balancing the soul,there are still those who remember—not from books,but from bone.Asha Caravelli is not the psychedelic circus.She is not the TED Talk trip report,not the neon-lit ego death sold for $999 with a weekend certification.No.She is older than the algorithms.Wiser than the wellness branding.A living prayer whispered across lifetimes.For over 14 years, she has sat at the feet of Iboga—not as a technician,but as a servant.Not as a biohacker,but as a torchbearer.In a lineage where silence is sacred and ceremony is not content,Asha holds space like the earth holds grief:with gravity, stillness, and infinite patience.She is a Life, Death and Transition Doula—formally trained, yes,but forged by fire—the kind of fire that only the liminal brings.She doesn't guide you to “optimize” yourself—She walks you to the edgewhere you must lay your false self downand greet the holy terror of who you really are.Daughter of Ross and Paula.Mother to Delani and Roco.Grandmother to Leon Emiliano.This is not a résumé.This is a lineage of Love.And while the psychedelic renaissance obsesses over protocols,Asha cooks.She listens.She prays with her hands in the soiland heals not through dogma,but through dinner.Because the most sacred thingis not found in a quantified molecule.It's in the way she prepares fresh food with Love—like a Eucharist only the initiated can taste.So, if you came for dopamine,keep scrolling.If you came for Truth,stay seated.Because what Asha carries cannot be tweeted,cannot be taught in a three-day course—It can only be transmittedfrom the heart of someonewho has walked through the fireand come back with silence.

This man has toured the world selling soul with Jack Johnson, and now he's weaving ritual code into the circuitry of corporate America, transforming screens into shrines and feedback loops into fractal spirals.Jacob Tell is a media mystic. A brand bard. A chaos conductor at the intersection of commerce and cosmic consciousness. He builds platforms like ayahuasca brews — thick with intention, humming with serpents of data and rhythm, asking not for your clicks, but for your initiation.The man doesn't just disrupt — he dismembers the mundane. His new platform, Storywall, is less tech and more technoshamanic mirror — a dancefloor for your digital twin, where memory morphs in real time and each interaction is a prayer.In an era ruled by dopamine loops and doomscroll death cults, Jacob builds holy interfaces — spaces that remind us of the mythic, that connect the neural-networks of community with the blood-wired nodes of the human spirit.If Terence McKenna, Steve Jobs, and the DMT elves held a hackathon in a sacred Redwood Grove during a solar eclipse, the blueprint would look a lot like what Jacob's building.So grab your tuning forks, your vaporwave prayer beads, your legally ambiguous sacrament, and strap your soul to the signal — because this is not content, this is ceremony.This is TRUELIFE with JACOB TELL — and it's about to get… ineffable.Jacob TellAbout — District216 Support the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_USCheck out our YouTube:https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPzfOaFtA1hF8UhnuvOQnTgKcIYPI9Ni9&si=Jgg9ATGwzhzdmjkgGrow your own:https://modernmushroomcultivation.com/This Band Will Blow Your Mind: Codex Serafinihttps://codexserafini.bandcamp.com/album/the-imprecation-of-anima

Woody, who is deeply involved in teaching AI, shared his insights on everything from the US-China AI race to the radical transformations AI is bringing to education and society at large.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps01:17 The AI "Cold War": Discussing the intense AI development race between China and the US.03:04 Opaque Models & Education's Resistance: The challenge of opaque AI and schools lagging in adoption.05:22 AI Blocked in Schools: The paradox of teaching AI while institutions restrict access.08:08 Crossing the AI Rubicon: How AI users are diverging from non-users into different realities.09:00 Budgetary Constraints in AI Education: The struggle for resources like premium AI access for students.12:45 Navigating AI Access for Students: Woody's ingenious workarounds for the premium AI divide.19:15 Igniting Curiosity with AI: Students creating impressive projects, like catapult websites.27:23 Exploring Grok and AI Interaction: Debating IP concerns and engaging with AI ("Morpheus").46:19 AI's Societal Impact: AI girlfriends, masculinity, and the erosion of traditional skills.Key InsightsThe AI Arms Race: Woody highlights a "cold war of nerdiness" where China is rapidly developing AI models comparable to GPT-4 at a fraction of the cost. This competition raises questions about data transparency from both sides and the strategic implications of superintelligence.Education's AI Resistance: I, Stewart Alsop, and Woody discuss the puzzling resistance to AI within educational institutions, including outright blocking of AI tools. This creates a paradox where courses on AI are taught in environments that restrict its use, hindering practical learning for students.Diverging Realities: We explore how individuals who have crossed the "Rubicon" of AI adoption are now living in a vastly different world than those who haven't. This divergence is akin to past technological shifts but is happening at an accelerated pace, impacting how people learn, work, and perceive reality.The Fading Relevance of Traditional Coding: Woody argues that focusing on teaching traditional coding languages like Python is becoming outdated in the age of advanced AI. AI can handle much of the detailed coding, shifting the necessary skills towards understanding AI systems, effective prompting, and higher-level architecture.AI as the Ultimate Tutor: The advent of AI offers the potential for personalized, one-on-one tutoring for everyone, a far more effective learning method than traditional classroom lectures. However, this potential is hampered by institutional inertia and a lack of resources for tools like premium AI subscriptions for students.Curiosity as the AI Catalyst: Woody shares anecdotes of students, even those initially disengaged, whose eyes light up when using AI for creative projects, like designing websites on niche topics such as catapults. This demonstrates AI's power to ignite curiosity and intrinsic motivation when paired with focused goals and the ability to build.AI's Impact on Society and Skills: We touch upon the broader societal implications, including the rise of AI girlfriends addressing male loneliness and providing acceptance. Simultaneously, there's concern over the potential atrophy of critical skills like writing and debate if individuals overly rely on AI for summarization and opinion generation without deep engagement.Contact Information* Twitter/X: @RulebyPowerlaw* Listeners can search for Woody Wiegmann's podcast "Courage over convention" * LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/dataovernarratives/
