What if the ideas that linger in the back of your mind — the ones you can't quite explain — are the ones you most need to pay attention to?Episode SummaryIn this episode, I explore that question with Dr Nuno Reis, a former physicist and investment banker turned thinker and guide in uncovering what he calls rare dots — those unique, pre-verbal insights that feel deeply resonant but don't yet fit into our existing models of the world.Our conversation begins with Nuno's unusual career path, from string theory and theoretical physics into financial modelling and risk management, before moving into transparency roles in finance. From there, we trace the thread of his enduring curiosity: how crises drive paradigm shifts, why models are useful but limited, and what happens when we acknowledge that not everything fits into neat rational frameworks.Nuno then introduces the concept of rare dots and explains how he's harnessing AI in a novel, deeply human way: not to replace thought, but to help us surface the preverbal ideas that shape our uniqueness. Together, we explore how rare dots can guide creativity, meaning, and innovation in our work and lives — and why paying attention to the things that don't quite make sense may be the most sensible thing we can do.Guest BiographyDr Nuno Reis describes himself as a physicist turned banker turned explorer of human thinking. After completing a PhD in theoretical physics with a focus on string theory, he transitioned into investment banking at UBS and later into financial engineering and transparency initiatives at Bloomberg.Over 18 years in finance, he applied scientific methods to risk modelling, hedging, and complex derivatives, all while maintaining a deep curiosity about the limits of logic and models.Today, Nuno is the creator of the Rare Dots framework, which helps individuals and organisations uncover the pre-verbal insights that drive creativity and meaning. He combines philosophy, history of thought, and cutting-edge uses of AI to build environments where people can explore their deepest intuitions.Through workshops, cohorts, and his own practice, he guides others in turning those rare dots into pathways for innovation, purpose, and contribution.AI-Generated Timestamped Summary[00:00:00] Introduction and framing of rare dots as preverbal insights[00:01:00] Nuno's background: from physics to banking and financial modelling[00:06:00] Applying scientific methods to markets and the 2008 crisis[00:12:00] Replication crisis and paradigm shifts in science[00:18:00] Early story of curiosity and existential questions[00:21:00] Introduction of rare dots as deeply resonant insights[00:26:00] How resonance and intuition shape meaning[00:30:00] Creating environments to surface rare dots[00:35:00] History of thinking vs history of ideas[00:40:00] Using AI as a tool for rare dots and Wittgenstein's ladder[00:46:00] How AI can surface pre-verbal thinking[00:52:00] AI as a prompt for deeper human thinking[00:56:00] Rare dots exploration as an infinite game[01:02:00] Rare dots as a guide for careers and human valueLinksNuno on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/nuno-reis/Nuno's Substack - https://nunobreis.substack.com/

Hey friend — welcome back to The Habit Within! I'm Camille Kinzler, and today I want to talk about something I know so many of us wrestle with: the constant search for the “right plan.”You know the cycle… a new diet, a new workout, a new productivity hack. We jump in, hoping this will finally be the thing that fixes everything — only to feel defeated when it doesn't stick. But here's the truth: we don't need another plan. We need a paradigm shift.In this episode, I share why shifting the way we think about health, energy, and habits matters so much more than adding one more checklist to our lives.In this episode, I explore:Why chasing the “perfect plan” keeps us stuck in cycles of burnout and frustrationWhat it actually looks like to shift your paradigm instead of your planHow I've been personally working through this in my own life (and why I know you'll relate)The small mindset shifts that create sustainable change — not just another short-term fixWhy grace, presence, and alignment will always outlast rigid rules and routinesThis isn't about throwing out structure altogether — it's about creating space for a new way of seeing yourself, your habits, and your health.I'd love to know: What paradigm are you ready to shift? Share your reflections with me — I love hearing your stories and aha moments.If You Loved This Episode…Then you'll love The Vitality Reset — my 6-week experience designed to help you rebuild your energy, regulate your nervous system, and reconnect with what truly matters.It's gentle, powerful, and made for this exact season of life.
Today is an exciting day for the Australian herbal community, as Naomi Ingleton launches Herb Connect, an online marketplace and hub to connect herb growers to apothecaries, medicine makers, practitioners and anyone wanting fresh vital potent Australian herbs!Naomi Ingleton is herb farmer and educator who's spent her life working with food and plants. After years in hospitality, food production, and business advisory, she's come full circle to her roots — founding The Farmacy Collective and Herb Connect to support farmers, share her love of medicinal plants, and inspire communities to grow and use herbs for food, health, and connection.Herb Connect — a platform that links Australian herb growers large and small with buyers who want fresh, local, and trusted herbs. Naomi started Herb Connect to support farmers with diverse income streams and to give consumers access to herbs with real provenance, not imports of unknown origin. It is at the tender beginning- Naomi has developed the framework but what we need is for all the small, medium and large scale growers to sign up and start selling their fresh/freshly dried herbs. This is not a space for herbal preps such as tinctures/infused oils/salves- it is purely for fresh material. Farmers/Growers can list their herbs and can have a bio so that you know exactly who you are buying from. And then the practitioners/medicine makers/retail outlets can also put up their 'wants' to give the farmers more direction in what to grow. The website will also be a hub, linking herb farmers to mentorship and other support.There is a real momentum happening, for Australia to become more self sufficient in our herb supply, and it's a momentum that The Elder Tree is really backing this momentum, and forming alliances with people like Naomi Ingleton is a wonderful way to actualise this momentum.

Welcome to Podbites - short, sharp episodes designed to give you digestible insights on industrial decarbonisation. In this episode, Tim Atkinson (Director, Sales & Trading at CFP Energy) joins guest host Melissa Chew (VP, Product at Decarb Connect) to explore why UK industrials must act now to build a resilient carbon strategy. Recorded live at Decarb Connect UK in Manchester in March, the conversation unpacks the changes underway in carbon markets and why the firefighting of the 2022 energy crisis has shifted into an era of forward-looking strategy. What You'll HearThe paradigm shift: With the power sector slashing emissions by 74% in just a decade, industry is now in the spotlight to deliver the next wave of reductions.The rising cost of delay: Waiting until 2030 could see carbon allowance costs double - or even triple.The opportunity window: Crisis mode is over. Companies finally have space to develop long-term carbon and energy plans - but only if they move before the next market shock.The need to plan ahead: Forward hedging carbon costs when prices are favorable is becoming essential.The technology gap: Solutions like hydrogen and carbon capture are still developing, raising questions about whether carbon prices will rise high enough to justify investment.

Filmed at DemystiCon 2025 in Portugal, Dr. C.S. Unnikrishnan, from India's Tata Institute, reveals a very different take on the nature of light. Beyond the noise of headlines and textbooks, the speed of light's measurement isn't proving to be so simple. Drawing on years at the heart of experiments that listen for the universe's faintest signals, he questions whether the speed of light is truly constant. Here, gravity and clocks intertwine, and relativity itself stands on uncertain ground.

Daniel Blumenthal, VP of Strategy at MDClone, is building synthetic data models to mimic real patient data without the need to protect the identity of individuals. This type of data is being utilized in drug discovery and development, building predictive tools and new care models, and to better understand biases in clinical trials making them more representative. AI tools play an essential role in generating and validating synthetic data as well as integrating it into various processes and environments. Daniel explains, "Synthetic data means different things to different people. So I definitely would want to start with sharing what it usually means to MDClone, which is creating data based on real populations of patients, real patient data. Learning from that real patient data, extracting essentially the statistics from that data, understanding the relevant patterns that exist inside that data, and then, based on the statistics alone, generating a brand-new set of data, a brand-new set of people, and the synthetic data that we generate." "If you look at it, essentially with your naked eye, you wouldn't know it's not real people. It has the same structure, has the same content appearance, and yet, inside, synthetic data contains no real people. So very different from other approaches to protecting patient privacy, which take a patient data set and hash data, mask data, or remove information like IDs, names, or locations." "Instead of taking that sort of approach, synthetic data actually generates a brand-new set of people, fake people, that in our case, as we build it, maintain the same statistical properties, such that any analysis you want to complete, you could accomplish using the synthetic dataset just as you would with the original dataset. That it will yield the same meaningful conclusions as the synthetic that it would with the original." #MDClone #MedAI #AI #SyntheticData #DrugDevelopment #DrugDiscovery #ClinicalTrials #PatientPrivacy mdclone.com Download the transcript here

Host Susan Ryan sits down with visionary eldercare advocate and Pioneer Network co-founder Barry Barkin for a profound conversation on reimagining aging and the transformative potential of community, spirit, and consciousness. Barkin shares his journey from founding the Live Oak Institute to helping launch the Pioneer Network, driven by a belief that aging is not a problem to solve but a gift to elevate. He recounts his efforts to create a regenerative, inclusive community at the Jewish Home in Oakland—an idea that initially faced rejection but ultimately gained momentum and global influence, including a successful expansion into 15 homes in Israel. But this conversation goes beyond history. Barry offers a deeply reflective vision for a paradigm shift—a movement from a worldview rooted in domination and separation to one grounded in interconnection, kindness, and sufficiency. He challenges listeners to see humanity as one living being, where every person and every creature matters. Together, Susan and Barry explore the concept of “Elder Awesome” and moving beyond traditional notions of “elder care.” They also discuss the “Tao of Blessings”—a personal path to leave grace in every encounter Barkin offers his vision for communities and care environments rooted in equity, dignity, and accountability.

The institutions are broken because their hearts are broken. In this conversation with Dr. Rick Doblin, president of the Multidisciplinary Association for Psychedelic Studies, we explore whether substances used to great effect in the treatment of PTSD can become the scalpel and the flame for stuck culture—cutting delusion, sparking communion.

Jonny is joined by Craig to discuss recent developments that suggest reality is starting to beat attempts to shape it through rhetoric, albeit all while relying on narrative. They look at the pushback against Alligator Alcatraz, the persistence of the Epstein Lists conspiracy, and the pushback on an Indianapolis pastor calling for the execution of LGBTQ+ people as evidence that ideologues can go too far. In the back half of the show, they discuss examples of how a desire for compassion and empathy can erode ideologies of oppression, with some specific attention paid to why conservatives seem threatened by the new Superman movie.
✨ Welcome, Beloveds!Blessings, beloved. In this special episode, I'm bringing you something truly transformative—wisdom that was delivered to me by my galactic masters. It completely changed my understanding of energy, healing, light work, and even my own identity as a lightworker, empath, and intuitive. For the first time ever, I'm sharing this channeled insight on a podcast platform. This isn't something I learned from a lineage or read in a book—this is pure, revolutionary energy.
What if everything we think we know about stars is wrong? In this explosive conversation, mathematician Stephen Crothers dismantles the foundations of modern astrophysics, arguing that black holes, neutron stars, and gravitational waves are mathematical illusions built on misapplied thermodynamics and flawed logic. With the rigor of a forensic investigator, he exposes how simple errors in stellar models went unchecked for a century—raising unsettling questions about the integrity of science and the nature of the cosmos itself.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-show00:00 Go!

The speakers delve into the importance of culture, training, and the need to challenge ingrained assumptions to foster growth and adaptability.TakeawaysThe church faced a crisis that revealed the limitations of its current model.A paradigm shift is necessary when old methods fail.The hybrid model combines traditional and innovative approaches to church growth.Success is redefined as disciples making disciples, not just attendance.Learning from unexpected sources can provide valuable insights for growth.Building a supportive culture is crucial for sustaining movement.Training and retraining are essential for effective disciple-making.Language matters; small changes can remove barriers to engagement.Understanding the Dunning-Kruger effect is vital for humility in learning.Challenging assumptions can lead to breakthroughs in personal and organizational growth.Resources: Resource GuideListen in one of 20 different languages - !Coming Soon!*This is an AI generated podcast
Martha: Welcome to the iWork4Him Power thought for the day, we are Jim and Martha Brangenberg with iWork4Him Jim: When you woke up today did you find yourself celebrating the first day of the work week or did you find yourself dreading it? Martha: It seems that most of us suffer from TGIF syndrome instead of adopting the TGIM revolution. We need to start Thanking God its Monday. Jim: you see, God designed our work to have purpose and fulfillment. He also designed it so that He could work alongside us, bringing us His wisdom along the way. Martha: What is it going to take for you to switch from dreading Monday to celebrating it? Jim: If you are like me, it is going to take a Romans 12:2 Paradigm Shift. We have to stop copying the Behavior and Customs of this world and allow ourselves to be transformed and allow God to change the way we think. Martha: Every Day your work matters to God. Let's start celebrating Mondays. For more about the iWork4Him podcast, go to iWork4Him dot com. That's iWork the number 4 Him dot com.
July 2, 2025Torah Smash! The Podcast for Nerdy JewsEpisode 84 - Pixar's Paradigm ShiftIn this episode, we explore the theory that suggests that all Pixar films exist within a single shared universe. Or perhaps they don't and they're just individually made entertaining movies. Or maybe the director once knew someone named Andy and liked the way he treated his toys. We'll discuss how literal or interpretive we believe the Pixar universe to be and we dig into some other pop culture conspiracy theories. We'll learn that Pixar may not just be about talking toys, but about a mystical cycle of life, technology, and evolution… Oh wait, my power is low... let me just quickly grab some new Buy N Large batteries…00:00:38 The Pixar Theory00:02:52 P.A.R.D.E.S.00:06:34 Our interpretation of Jewish texts00:10:02 Explaining the Pixar Theory00:16:44 Pixar gets the Pardes treatment00:24:51 Other pop-culture conspiracy theories00:31:03 An original romantic conspiracy theory00:32:50 Favorite Pixar Movies00:35:46 Pixar PuristShare this episode with a friend: https://www.torahsmash.com/post/episode-84-pixars-paradigm-shiftConnect with us online, purchase swag, support us with a donation, and more at www.torahsmash.com.

Paradigm Shift? Not so easily. This week, Waylon speaks about the responsibility all generations have to take steps to invest in kindness, honesty, and planet-saving actions such as avoiding plastic. It's not the role of one, lone generation to solve the problems created by those who came before them. "One of my least favorite blind spots among Boomers, or older folks, is a sort of lazy nihilism where they say, ‘Oh, you know, the next generation is so beautiful and they're gonna they're going to change everything and save everything, and they care about our earth and everything will be fine.' I feel like it's a lack of accountability, a lack of responsibility, and they believe the next generation will fix everything we've messed up. It's a fake way of blaming themselves without actually caring.” ~ Waylon H. Lewis

How can Bioregionalism supplant the nation state as the natural unit of civilisation? Joe Brewer is living, breathing and teaching the ways we can work together with each other and the natural flows of water and life. We know that the current paradigm is breaking apart in real time, but how do we become the light that shines through the cracks? How do we build ways of being that reunite us with the web of life, create new/old ways of letting value flow and become what humanity has been and could be: stewards of that massive, magical, heartbreakingly beautiful living system that is the web of life. This week's guest, Joe Brewer, works at the leading edge of these ideas, testing out answers on the ground in communities of place, purpose and passion around the world. Joe is a trans-disciplinary systems thinker and Earth regeneration designer who has worked in everything from agroforestry work in Bioparque Móncora to starting a Waldorf Forest School (Sueños del Bosque) to co-founding a territorial foundation called Fundación Barichara Regenerativa and starting a trust to bring more local land into the commons. He was founder of the Earth Regenerators study group, which became Design School for Regenerating Earth, and is the author of The Design Pathway for Regenerating Earth. Increasingly, he's becoming a leading global voice on the ways we can return to a bioregional way of living that is, as you'll here, how we have lived for over 99% of human history. It's the way that makes sense, that can heal our relationships to ourselves, each other and the living web of life. The question, always, is how we make this happen? How do we shift our entire culture out of a world where lines drawn on maps are more real than the flows of a river, back to a place where clean air, clean water, clean soil are our priorities, the non-negotiable baselines from which everything else arises? How do we shift our concept of value flows away from the accumulation of stuff in a zero-sum game to a place where human needs are trusted and met? Joe has such heart-warming, inspiring examples of how this is happening around the world: on all 5 inhabited continents, there are groups making this happen. As Joe says, this is the work of now. It's urgent. It's also the single most inspiring thing we can do.

Barbara Daoust is a success coach, mindset strategist, and transformational speaker who helps professionals break through self-limiting beliefs and step into their highest potential. As a consultant with the Proctor Gallagher Institute and founder of Barbara Daoust Coaching, she combines mindset mastery with practical strategies to empower people to lead with passion, purpose, and authenticity.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode of the Selling from the Heart Podcast, Larry Levine and Darrell Amy welcome Barbara Daoust for a powerful conversation about mindset, belief, and the heart of sales success. Barbara shares how authentic selling begins with authentic thinking—challenging self-imposed limitations and stepping boldly toward “big, audacious goals.” The conversation explores how shifting paradigms, embracing emotional intelligence, and leading with heart can transform both sales results and personal growth.KEY TAKEAWAYSAuthenticity in Sales: Real trust is built by moving beyond the script and connecting heart-to-heart.Breakthrough Mindset: Challenging self-limiting beliefs opens the door to new levels of personal and sales success.Big, Audacious Goals: Bold goals reveal inner resistance—and offer the path to exponential growth.Mindset + Skillset: Mastering your thoughts and emotional state is as important as mastering your sales process.Customized Growth: There's no one-size-fits-all approach—each person must shift their unique paradigms to unlock success. HIGHLIGHT QUOTES“Feeling is just vibration. And so when we can connect to the feeling place, that's when our heart opens up.”“Understand the foundation around the script, but make it your own in a way that you feel comfortable delivering.”“Next level, new devil.”“Most people tiptoe safely to their death with their dreams buried inside.”
How do we let go of the sense of scarcity, separation and powerlessness that defines the ways we live, care and do business together? How can we best equip our young people for the world that is coming - which is so, so different from the future we grew up believing was possible? This week's guest, Jennifer Brandsberg-Engelmann is an educator, regenerative - and I would say renegade - economist who is Project Lead at the Regenerative Economics for Secondary Schools and Lead Author of the online textbook of the same name. Jennifer has taught economics for nearly thirty years, but as you'll hear, the Global Financial Crash led her to rethink the rules and structures of the system and now she's one of the world's leading thinkers on Regenerative Economics - how we can refocus away from business, markets and the structures of neoliberalism towards ways of being that are grounded in reciprocity, respect and responsibility, in the realities of being human in the twenty-first century. In 2023, Jennifer stopped working as a teacher and is now focused full time on shifting the paradigm in the education system and beyond, moving us away from the toxic mindset of scarcity, competition and the rise of oligopolies, towards an understanding of our place as integral nodes in the web of life. Her new two year curriculum is one of the most ambitious I've ever seen. It builds a solid, damning critique of the old paradigm and offers credible, structured routes through to a new one that would allow us all to flourish within a thriving ecosystem, to have not just an economy, but a way of being that is predicated in reciprocity, care, sharing and the kinds of lives we yearn to lead, but don't yet know how.Truly, this is evolutionary and if we can spread these ideas far enough, wide enough and root them deep enough in all that we are and do, I genuinely believe this is at least part of the key to the continuation of complex life on earth. Because, yes, we are that close to extinction. And yes, there is still time to veer from the cliff's edge.So if you do nothing else this week, please share this conversation and the links within it to anyone and everyone you know who cares about shifting the paradigm - or even is involved in the education system at any level.

In this cutting-edge episode of Impact Theory, Tom Bilyeu takes center stage to confront one of the biggest questions of our era: can we actually trust the so-called "experts"? Drawing on riveting examples from history and his own journey as an entrepreneur, Tom dissects how expertise has been weaponized by elites, resulting in societal conformity—even when the experts turn out to be wrong. From the smoking doctors of the past to today's battles over pandemics, politics, and public policy, Tom lays out a provocative argument for why blind faith in authority is more hazardous than most realize. Tom invites listeners into a historical deep dive, exposing powerful stories like the persecution of Socrates and Galileo, the belittling of Linus Pauling, and the revolution started by Barry Marshall's rogue experiment. Throughout, he constructs a compelling case for why challenging orthodoxy is not only healthy, but necessary for progress. Whether you consider yourself an expert or a lifelong learner, part 1 will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about authority, consensus, and truth.
