Pernahkah Anda merasa bahwa model kepemimpinan dan perubahan sosial kita terasa usang? Kita membuat rencana strategis yang kaku dan metrik yang rumit, namun sering kali gagal memahami kompleksitas dunia nyata. Episode ini mengeksplorasi pergeseran paradigma yang radikal: bagaimana jika kita berhenti memperlakukan organisasi dan komunitas kita sebagai mesin yang dapat diprediksi dan mulai melihatnya sebagai sistem kehidupan yang cerdas? Dengan memadukan wawasan dari "Leadership and the New Science" karya Margaret Wheatley, kita akan menggali bagaimana prinsip-prinsip dari fisika kuantum dan teori chaos dapat memberi kita pemahaman yang lebih dalam tentang bagaimana keteraturan muncul dari ketidakpastian, dan mengapa hubungan, bukan bagian-bagian yang terisolasi, adalah kunci dari segalanya. Selanjutnya, kita akan membumikan sains yang mendalam ini dengan praktik-praktik yang berpusat pada manusia dari "The Art of Scaling Deep." Kita akan membahas mengapa perubahan sistemik yang sejati tidak hanya tentang "scaling up" kebijakan atau "scaling out" model, tetapi tentang pekerjaan yang transformatif dan seringkali tidak terlihat. Ini adalah pekerjaan "scaling deep": menumbuhkan perubahan dari dalam ke luar melalui kerja batin untuk menyelaraskan nilai-nilai kita, kerja relasional untuk membangun kepercayaan, dan kerja naratif untuk mengubah cerita budaya yang menahan kita. Kita akan mengungkap bagaimana praktik-praktik "lunak" ini sebenarnya adalah aplikasi paling kuat dari hukum-hukum "keras" yang mengatur sistem kehidupan yang kompleks. Pada akhirnya, episode ini adalah panggilan untuk para pemimpin, inovator, dan siapa pun yang peduli untuk menciptakan masa depan yang lebih baik. Ini adalah undangan untuk beralih dari peran seorang mekanik yang mengontrol mesin menjadi seorang tukang kebun yang memelihara ekosistem. Bagaimana kita bisa memimpin dengan keberanian dalam menghadapi ketidakpastian? Bagaimana kita bisa mengukur apa yang benar-benar penting, seperti kesehatan hubungan dan kekuatan tujuan bersama? Bergabunglah dengan kami saat kami mengeksplorasi bagaimana menyatukan sains dan jiwa dapat membuka cara-cara baru yang lebih penuh harapan dan efektif untuk menavigasi dunia kita yang kompleks.

There’s a surprising amount of anti-masturbation content on social media, much of it suggesting that masturbation is bad for your health. In today's show, we're going to delve into whether abstaining from masturbation actually boosts testosterone, whether you can really become “addicted” to masturbating, what science says about the purported health benefits of semen retention, and more. In this episode, we're revisiting a conversation with Dr. Eric Sprankle, which originally aired back in episode 275. Dr. Sprankle is an Associate Professor of Clinical Psychology and the co-director of the Sexuality Studies program at Minnesota State University, Mankato. He’s also a licensed clinical psychologist and AASECT-certified sex therapist, as well as author of the book, DIY: The Wonderfully Weird History and Science of Masturbation. Some of the specific topics we explore include: Why is the concept of semen retention increasingly popular? Are there any health benefits to abstaining from ejaculation? Is an orgasm obtained from self-pleasure really any different from an orgasm obtained through partnered sex? Can women become “addicted” to their vibrators? Is there an objective standard for what constitutes “too much” masturbation? You can check out Eric’s website to learn more about his work. Got a sex question?

We all face stress—but how we respond to it makes all the difference.   Stress can build us up, strengthening our body and immune system… or it can break us down, leading to anxiety, muscle loss, weakened immunity, and faster aging.   The good news? Our body comes equipped with a natural defense system against stress—and when we support it properly, we can boost our resilience, calm the mind, and protect our long-term health.   Join me on today's Cabral Concept 3415 as we explore the latest science on how to become more stress-resilient, naturally.

In this captivating discussion, Iain and Philip ask what makes us who we are? Are we merely our brains, or does science only capture part of the human story? Is the universe conscious?Dr. Iain McGilchrist, renowned psychiatrist, neuroscience researcher, philosopher, and author of the critically acclaimed The Master and His Emissary: The Divided Brain and the Making of the Western World, engages in a thought-provoking event at the UnHerd club with Professor Philip Goff, a leading panpsychist philosopher from Durham University and author of Galileo's Error: Foundations for a New Science of Consciousness.McGilchrist and Goff dive into the intersections of neuroscience, philosophy, and consciousness, exploring the limits of reductionist science, the nature of the self, and the profound implications of their work for understanding the human mind and its place in the cosmos.

Pernahkah Anda merasa bersemangat tentang suatu isu sosial tetapi bingung bagaimana cara membuat perubahan yang nyata? Dalam ringkasan audio buku "The New Science of Social Change" karya Lisa Mueller ini, kita akan menjelajahi mengapa semangat saja tidak cukup. Mueller berargumen bahwa gerakan sosial yang paling sukses adalah yang memadukan semangat dengan strategi berbasis bukti. Audio ini menyajikan temuan-temuan kunci dari ilmu sosial yang dapat mengubah cara kita berpikir tentang aktivisme, dari sekadar aksi spontan menjadi gerakan yang terukur dan berdampak. Dengarkan ringkasan ini untuk menemukan berbagai strategi praktis yang telah terbukti secara ilmiah. Pelajari mengapa protes tanpa kekerasan secara statistik lebih mungkin berhasil, bagaimana membangun koalisi yang kuat dengan pesan yang kohesif dan terfokus, serta mengapa slacktivism (aktivisme daring) sebenarnya bisa menjadi gerbang penting untuk keterlibatan yang lebih dalam. Kami juga akan membahas psikologi di balik penggalangan dana yang efektif, seperti "efek kemartiran" yang menunjukkan mengapa pengorbanan kecil dapat menginspirasi donasi yang lebih besar. Baik Anda seorang aktivis berpengalaman maupun seseorang yang baru ingin memulai, podcast  ini adalah panduan modern Anda untuk membuat perubahan. Ini adalah kesempatan untuk melengkapi niat baik dengan pengetahuan, mengubah idealisme menjadi aksi yang efektif, dan memastikan bahwa setiap upaya yang kita lakukan tidak hanya terdengar heroik, tetapi juga benar-benar membawa hasil. Mari kita belajar bersama bagaimana menjadi changemaker yang lebih cerdas dan strategis.

Seasons of suffering can take so much from us—our health, a loved one, our sense of security. There's a more expansive loss that runs through all those other kinds of loss: we lose our ability to imagine a good future. We only remember pain and hurt, which means we anticipate a future filled with more pain and hurt. I don't think it has to be this way. Even when the worst things happen, it's possible to dream new dreams. And it's possible to imagine a good future for ourselves and for the people we love.Today we're talking to a woman on the leading edge of imagining—and creating—good futures. Amy Julia Becker is an author, speaker, and one of my very favorite thought leaders in the faith and disability space. Hours after giving birth to her first daughter, Princeton grad Amy Julia received the unexpected news that her little girl had an intellectual disability. Amy Julia's lived experience paired with her brilliant mind and love of Jesus make her an invaluable guide as you and I take the next step toward a future filled with hope.Here's what you'll take away from this conversation:A refreshing redefinition of “the good life”One thing you can do when life takes a totally unexpected turnProof that the life you didn't expect can still be a life you loveTons of practical resources and recommendations for taking your next stepIf you need inspiration to begin imagining a good future, this episode is for you.Show Notes:The GoodHard Story Ep. 94 with Dr. John Swinton - https://pod.link/1496882479/episode/565eb21c7e2a0b580d942c64560f312fA Good and Perfect Gift: Faith, Expectations, and a Little Girl Named Penny by Amy Julia Becker - https://a.co/d/hHW7XfsHope Heals Camp - https://hopeheals.com/camp/The Life We're Looking For: Reclaiming Relationship in a Technological World by Andy Crouch - https://a.co/d/hpkQxOOThe GoodHard Story Ep. 98 with Philip Yancey - https://pod.link/1496882479/episode/7ff1ca2eb98b273f3d5479dc5504d9f3Where the Light Fell: A Memoir by Philip Yancey - https://pod.link/1496882479/episode/7ff1ca2eb98b273f3d5479dc5504d9f3Re-Imagining Family Life with Disabilities Workshop - https://amyjuliabecker.com/workshop/The Gardener and the Carpenter: What the New Science of Child Development Tells Us About the Relationship Between Parents and Children by Alison Gopnick - https://a.co/d/70JXPiSAmy Julia's Substack - https://amyjuliabecker.substack.com/Amy Julia's podcast - https://amyjuliabecker.com/podcast/Amy Julia on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/amyjuliabecker/Scriptures referenced in this episode:***There's so much more to the story.

What defines who we are? For decades, the answer has seemed obvious: our genes, the “blueprint of life.” In The Master Builder: How the New Science of the Cell Is Rewriting the Story of Life, biologist Alfonso Martinez Arias argues we've been missing the bigger picture. It's not our genes that define who we are, but our cells. While genes are important, nothing in our DNA explains why the heart is on the left side of the body, how many fingers we have, or even how our cells manage to reproduce. Drawing on new research from his own lab and others, Martinez Arias reveals that we are composed of a thrillingly intricate, constantly moving symphony of cells. Both their long lineage—stretching back to the very first cell—and their intricate interactions within our bodies today make us who we are. Engaging and ambitious, The Master Builder will transform your understanding of our past, present, and future—as individuals and as a species. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Prime Minister's new chief science advisor, John Roche, is getting underway with his new job, a year after the position was vacated 

This week we're exploring embodiment science in education with some of the worlds leading embodiment practitioners and cognitive scientists! We believe that this is one of the most important shifts happening in education globally, which is simultaneously so simple, and yet so hard to budge given the depths of the tendencies towards disembodiment, especially in the Western tradition, that we explore. Joining Tim in this fantastic conversation are:Arawana Hayashi heads the creation of Social Presencing Theater (SPT) for the Presencing Institute. Working with Otto Scharmer and colleagues, she brings her background in the arts, meditation, and social justice to creating “social presencing” that makes visible both current reality and emerging future possibilities for individuals and groups.

I'm pleased to welcome Henry Abbott, the author of a new book called Ballistic: The New Science of Injury Free Athletic Performance! What an interesting conversation we had, and we went on a wide ranging journey through several topics of interest in modern big time sports. Henry has a longtime sports background–he is an award-winning journalist who led ESPN’s 60 person NBA digital and print team. So he is a longtime NBA guy behind the scenes, and in this episode, he tells us what it's like out there, touching on concerns like this crazy long 82 game season where we expect these powerful, explosive athletes to perform night after night—this kind of turns the sport into a severe long endurance grind where you can pretty much predict the athletes are going to get injured. So Henry went on a three year long quest to determine what cutting edge scientific advancements we have to measure and program athletes to train properly to prevent injury. The title Ballistic is interesting because he focuses on the importance of ballistic high impact training, which we typically shy away from, thinking that it's too traumatizing. I really appreciated this because you've probably heard me on the show talk often about my nagging minor injuries that are always a battle and a challenge as I strive to compete in masters track and field. So you're going to get some good tidbits and also learn what the top of the line athletes are doing—he references his connection to this training facility in Santa Barbara, California called P3, it's operated by an old triathlon friend of mine named Dr. Marcus Elliott, and he is doing some really interesting data collection and analysis. You will learn why Henry says that almost everyone has some sort of hip dysfunction, whether it's hip flexor weakness or a lack of mobility, and ways that you can progress to become more functional, especially in the three most important joints that control impact forces—the ankle, knee, and the hip. Enjoy this fun and wide ranging talk with Henry Abbott, and I highly recommend you read his book Ballistic, the New Science of Injury, Free Athletic Performance, which reveals a surprising takeaway: The explosive moves and ground impacts we often avoid in everyday workouts might provide the secret to an injury-free athletic life. TIMESTAMPS: The three most important joints that control impact forces are the ankle, knee and the hip. So how do we best take care of them? [03:01] The popularity of Track and Field is still struggling in comparison to other major sports. [05:00] What is it like to cover the NBA? What about the players being prone to injury? [08:09] Eighty-two games are too much for the players. Humans can't do more than five max effort workouts every two weeks before their performance declines and injuries skyrocket. [10:43] Are the players, trainers and coaches doing their best to prevent injuries? What is P3 in Santa Barbara? [12:12] In the book, Ballistic, Henry explains about the force at the moment of landing. [16:42] One of the most dangerous foot positions that a player can encounter is a toes-down landing. [20:11] We want the lower body to be loose, mobile, and flexible but we also want some areas stiff. How does it all come together? [25:01] Injuries occur when you come back down to earth, not by jumping up. It's the impact of landing. [28:17] You need to learn how to jump properly to prevent injury. [31:55] The WHO says immobility is the fourth leading cause of a global death. [35:23] Every athlete needs help with their hips. [36:17] Henry talks about dirty money and sports. There can be an adverse influence on sports. [43:09] What really makes a champion athlete is the work ethic, resilience, family-oriented, well-blanced lifestyle. [51:18] Is there any financial incentive in modern day NBA players to continue since they get so money? [56:31] Henry's book Ballistic talks about caring for your body...paying attention to it to prevent injuries, but also use your body to have fun.

For centuries, Western science and philosophy have struggled to explain what consciousness is and where it comes from. What if the answer to both those questions is: everything?On this episode, we dive into panpsychism: the idea that consciousness may not be limited to humans, or even living beings, but could be a basic property of reality itself. We'll talk to philosopher Philip Goff about why this idea is gaining attention in academic circles, and to theologian Joanna Leidenhag about how panpsychism aligns with spiritual traditions from across cultures and throughout history. We'll also ask: could this strange-sounding idea reshape how we understand ourselves and our place in the world?Philip Goff is a professor of Philosophy and the author of Why?: The Purpose of the Universe, Galileo's Error: Foundations for a New Science of Consciousness and many other publications about panpsychism. Find out more about his work on his website.Joanna Leidenhag is a professor of Theology and Philosophy and the author of the book Minding Creation: Theological Panpsychism and the Doctrine of Creation.

What if mitochondria weren't just energy engines — but conscious beings guiding your survival and evolution? In this episode, Dave Asprey sits down with Zach Bush, MD, to uncover a radical new science of cellular intelligence. Together, they reveal how your mitochondria, microbiome, and genetic memory do far more than support survival—they actively shape consciousness, drive healing, and accelerate human evolution. You'll discover why chronic disease, fatigue, brain fog, and emotional trauma often trace back to lost cellular communication—and how restoring that network can unlock radical resilience, deeper energy, and true longevity. Through the lens of soil health, vibrational biology, light frequencies, and ancient microbial wisdom, Zach Bush shows why the future of biohacking demands reconnection to the deeper intelligence already alive inside you. What You'll Learn in This Episode: • How mitochondria act as conscious messengers—not just energy factories—and why that changes everything about health and aging • Why rebuilding gut microbiome intelligence strengthens immune function, brain health, and emotional resilience • How disrupted cellular communication fuels chronic inflammation, autoimmune disease, and premature aging • How emotional trauma imprints onto genetic expression and triggers mitochondrial collapse • Why viruses and bacteria serve as evolutionary partners—not enemies—and how they upgrade your biology • How “cellular safety” activates healing, regeneration, and peak human performance • How carbon cycles, soil health, and light frequencies repair DNA and extend human lifespan • Simple daily practices that rebuild cellular coherence, boost energy, and reconnect you to your innate intelligence This conversation will rewire how you think about health, disease, and human potential—giving you the tools to upgrade your biology at the deepest level. **Check out Zach's exclusive offer for The Human Upgrade listeners at https://intelligenceofnature.com/ and use code ‘DAVE10” for a discount!** SPONSORS - ARMRA | Go to https://tryarmra.com/ and use the code DAVE to get 15% off your first order. - Apollo Neuro | To get an Apollo wearable, go to https://apolloneuro.com/Dave and save 15%.

In celebration of our fifth anniversary, we're re-releasing one of our favorite episodes from the past year. In this episode, we dive into the intricate world of narcissism, examining how both grandiose and vulnerable traits influence self-esteem, relationships, and the impact of social media on these behaviors. Dr. Graham Taylor is joined by Dr. Keith Campbell, Professor of Psychology at the University of Georgia and a leading expert on narcissism. Keith has authored over 200 scientific papers and several notable books, including “The Narcissism Epidemic: Living in the Age of Entitlement and The New Science of Narcissism”. His work has been featured in various media outlets, from The Today Show to The Joe Rogan Experience, and he is the creator of a widely-viewed TED-Ed lesson on narcissism. With degrees from UC Berkeley, San Diego State University, and a Ph.D. from UNC Chapel Hill, Keith brings a wealth of knowledge to our conversation on the rise of entitlement in modern society.   For more information about Keith Campbell, please visit: https://www.wkeithcampbell.com For more information about “The Narcissism Epidemic: Living in the Age of Entitlement” by W.

What is beginner's luck? After all, it has a name so it must happen often enough to be a thing. But could it just be an odd and occasional coincidence or is there really something to it? We begin this episode with a look at the phenomenon of beginner's luck and why it may not be luck at all. Source: Sian Beilock author of Choke (https://amzn.to/3Nj53uE) Quitting? You can't quit! Quitting is for losers – you should finish what you start. That's the message many of us have playing in our head when it comes to the thought of quitting. But hang on a second! In some cases, quitting may very well be the best option while persevering may be a really dumb idea. That is something my guest Julia Keller firmly believes. Julia is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, teacher and author of the book, Quitting: A Life Strategy: The Myth of Perseverance―and How the New Science of Giving Up Can Set You Free (https://amzn.to/41LAWR9) There is something great about being around water. That's why we like to go the beach or to rivers and lakes and why waterfront property is typically so expensive. Humans are naturally drawn to water. But why? What is the connection between people and being near bodies of water? You are about to discover the answer to this from my guest Wallace J. Nichols, PhD. Wallace is a Senior Fellow at the Center for the Blue Economy in Monterey, a research associate at the California Academy of Sciences and author of the book, Blue Mind: The Surprising Science That Shows How Being Near, In, On, or Under Water Can Make You Happier, Healthier, More Connected, and Better at What You Do (https://amzn.to/3NfkZy8) How is your love life?

In this conversation, Henry Abbott discusses his transition from sports media to writing a book on injury prevention, "Ballistic: The New Science of Injury-Free Athletic Performance." Blending cutting-edge science with gripping storytelling, award-winning data journalist and competitive amateur athlete Henry Abbott reveals that we are on the cusp of a new era in sports medicine, built around the science of ballistic movements―leaping and landing―and the unique fingerprint of your body's physics. Abbott's inspiring narrative tells the story of sports scientist Dr. Marcus Elliott and the Peak Performance Project (P3), who use technology to study how athletes move and why they get hurt. Applying machine learning and lessons from biomechanics, medicine, and physiology, doctors at P3 can now detect elevated risk of an ACL tear or a pulled hamstring like an echocardiogram can see warning signs of a heart attack. Their data-driven findings are full of surprises. Your body's most important defense against knee and ankle injuries are the little-known muscles in the lower leg and hip area, which typical workouts rarely target. Similarly, the glutes―not the core―do the most to prevent back pain. Transformative benefits flow from training underappreciated kinds of athleticism like rotation, deceleration, and relaxation. Most of all, science shows that the best athletes don't avoid ballistics―they master them. Through riveting stories of elite athletes overcoming injuries and pushing themselves to the limit, Abbott presents an evidence-based case for intervening early to protect our bodies. And he suggests that we can all harness the science of ballistic movement not just to run fast or jump high but to move with joy and lead fulfilling athletic lives.

Caregiving is the most universal of human acts. But also one of the most invisible. While caring for a child, parent or loved one can be meaningful, and life defining, it can also be exhausting and life breaking. Drawing on her groundbreaking research on baby's brains, UC Berkeley psychologist and philosopher Alison Gopnik is leading a multidisciplinary project to better understand the social science of caregiving with hopes of translating those insights into practical policies. Gopnik and policymaker Anne-Marie Slaughter join us to talk about how rethinking our approach to caregiving and how we support care providers, could lead to a better, more functional society. Guests: Alison Gopnik, professor of psychology and affiliate professor of philosophy, UC Berkeley; author, "The Gardener and the Carpenter: What the New Science of Child Development Tells Us About the Relationship Between Parents and Children" Anne-Marie Slaughter, CEO of New America, a non-profit think tank; author of "Unfinished Business: Women Men Work Family" Learn more about your ad choices.
