What happens when a society possesses extraordinary technological power but lacks a shared sense of what that power is for? John Vervaeke, Jordan Hall, Guy Sengstock, and Christopher Mastropietro reunite for a sustained inquiry into normativity: the structures by which human beings perceive direction, value, responsibility, and the difference between better and worse action. The question becomes urgent in the context of artificial intelligence, where increasingly consequential decisions are being made inside a culture that struggles to articulate a coherent basis for judgment. The conversation begins with Guy's encounters with the AI community and the fear that humanity may soon make decisions it cannot reverse. From there, the group investigates modernity's technological understanding of being, the reduction of creation to artifacts, and the modern self's attachment to sole authorship. John and Jordan propose that meaning is participatory: intelligibility is not manufactured by isolated selves but emerges through shared authorship with other people, traditions, practices, and reality itself. The dialogue then turns toward virtue. If the problem is not simply ignorance but malformed attention and desire, knowing what should be done is insufficient. The deeper difficulty is how people become capable of wanting, perceiving, and participating in what is good. Socratic aporia, vulnerability, kenosis, embodied practice, pilgrimage, and dialogue are explored as ways of undergoing reorientation rather than merely acquiring information. In the final movement, the speakers discuss bad-faith dialogue, leisure, lingering, tourism, linguistic lostness, and doomscrolling. These apparently different subjects converge on one insight: when people remain sealed inside environments engineered around their existing capacities and preferences, they lose access to the forms of friction, surprise, and participation that can transform them. Key Insights Normativity is the directional structure through which actions appear better, worse, appropriate, or necessary. The AI crisis exposes a deeper cultural inability to answer what technology should serve. Modernity often confuses participation in creation with ownership of the resulting artifact. Meaning and intelligibility require shared authorship rather than sovereign individual control. Virtue cannot be transmitted as information alone; it requires transformed attention and participation. Embodied practices can reorganize abstractions because higher cognition remains rooted in sensorimotor life. Pilgrimage, leisure, and dialogos help people cross boundaries between worlds rather than consuming only familiar inputs. Doomscrolling is an efficient example of technology feeding hypertrophied capacities while narrowing participation in reality.

The usual way to measure women's power in politics is to count the seats they hold in parliament. But most women who take part in politics never stand for office. They vote, attend meetings, petition, protest, or try to get the water supply fixed. In this week's VoxDev Talk, Soledad Artiz Prillaman of Stanford talks to Tim Phillips about her new review of the research into non-elite women's participation in politics, written with Peace Medie (University of Bristol).They are not elite women with less money, she argues. They want different things and face different constraints. Social norms can prevent them from achieving the change they want. But in the Global South there is evidence that non-elite women are using collective action to gain access to politics, and using that access to renegotiate the norms that hold them back, rather than waiting for those norms to shift first.The research behind this episode:Medie, Peace A., and Soledad Artiz Prillaman. 2026. "Nonelite Women's Participation in Politics." Annual Review of Political Science, vol. 29.To cite this episode:Phillips, Tim, and Soledad Artiz Prillaman. 2026. "Nonelite Women's Participation in Politics." VoxDev Talks (podcast). Assign this as extra listening. The citation above is formatted and ready for a reading list or VLE.About the guestSoledad Artiz Prillaman is Assistant Professor of Political Science at Stanford University and faculty director of the Inclusive Democracy and Development Lab. Her research spans comparative political economy, development, and gender, with a focus on South Asia and on how and when women gain access to politics, both as citizens and as representatives. She is the author of The Patriarchal Political Order: The Making and Unraveling of the Gendered Participation Gap in India (Cambridge University Press, 2023).The paper is co-authored with Peace A. Medie, Associate Professor in the School of Sociology, Politics and International Studies at the University of Bristol. Her work covers gender, security, and politics in Africa, including the campaigns to end violence against women.Research cited in this episodeElite and nonelite women. The paper defines eliteness by access to political power, not by office held or income alone. Elites include elected representatives, but also academics and business executives whose position gives them access to power. Nonelites are those who lack that access. The distinction matters because policy aimed at getting more women into elite positions only helps everyone else if elite and nonelite women want the same things, and the evidence that they do is thin.The income puzzle. At the individual level, income is generally uncorrelated with women's turnout; at the national level, GDP predicts nonelite women's participation only in some places. Women in paid work do participate more, but the driver appears to be the networks and information that come with a job, not the wage.Vote agency. Showing up to vote is not the same as voting freely. Asked whether they would vote for their own preferred party or the one a male gatekeeper preferred, at least half of women in some South Asian settings say they would defer. Work by Sara Khan shows that the women with the least agency are those whose preferences differ most from the men who hold power over them.Varieties of patriarchy. All societies are patriarchal, but patriarchy operates differently across them. In parts of South Asia it takes the form of explicit, socially sanctioned control over where women go and how they vote. In the United States and Europe it shows up earlier, as socialisation, producing large gender gaps in stated political interest. Same underlying force, different mechanics, different policy conclusions.Quotas. More than 100 countries have adopted some form of electoral gender quota, making it the most widespread women's empowerment policy in the world. The evidence on whether quotas help nonelite women is mixed; they raise some women's participation in some places, but in others the effect is null or negative. In India, Prillaman notes campaign material for quota seats that pairs the woman candidate's name with a man's photograph.Collective action. Networks outside the home, through women's groups, microcredit groups, churches, unions or friendship circles, raise women's participation by widening their information and giving them cover against backlash. Prillaman argues that in the Global South women are increasingly using collective action to gain access to politics, and using that access to renegotiate norms, rather than waiting for norms to change first.More from VoxDevWhere are the Indian female politicians?, an interview with Lakshmi Iyer on why a woman winning office in India does not lead to more women standing next time.Related reading on VoxDevGrassroots party activism by women promotes equal political participation, in which Tanushree Goyal finds that women politicians in Delhi recruit women activists, narrowing gender gaps in political knowledge and participation.Women's microcredit groups empower women politically, in which Prillaman shows that microcredit groups raise women's political participation in India by building their networks, not their bank balances.

Before there were relationships, there was adaptation. Before there were marriages, there was adaptation. Before there were families, civilizations, languages, philosophies, religions, identities, cultures, nations, and histories, there was adaptation. Existence itself rests upon a single uncompromising principle: Everything that lives must continuously adjust to what is. Nothing receives exemption. Stars adapt to gravitational forces. Forests adapt to seasons. Species adapt to environments. Consciousness adapts to experience. Life itself survives through perpetual negotiation with reality. Only the human ego attempts a different strategy. It attempts permanence. It attempts certainty. It attempts preservation. It attempts to freeze living things into familiar forms and then calls that stability. This may explain one of the greatest tragedies in intimate relationships. Many people do not fall in love with a person. They fall in love with a version. A snapshot. A moment. A psychological photograph taken during a particular season of someone's evolution. Years later they discover the photograph has changed. The ambitions changed. The fears changed. The values changed. The body changed. The dreams changed. The identity changed. And suddenly what should have been expected feels like betrayal. Not because transformation occurred. Because transformation was never included in the original agreement. The relationship begins suffering from a silent disease. Not incompatibility. Not conflict. Not communication problems. The disease is the expectation that life should stop moving. Yet life never agreed to such a contract. Every intimate relationship eventually becomes a confrontation with the most fundamental law of existence: Nothing living remains the same. The deepest form of love may therefore have very little to do with possession, agreement, compatibility, romance, chemistry, or even commitment. It may involve something far more difficult. Participation. The willingness to remain present while another human being becomes. Not who you expected. Not who you prefer. Not who you originally chose. But who life is continuously revealing. This is where rigidity enters the story. Most people misunderstand rigidity. Rigidity is not strength. Rigidity is fear attempting to negotiate with impermanence. A boundary protects what is essential. Rigidity protects what is familiar. A boundary serves growth. Rigidity resists growth. A boundary preserves integrity. Rigidity preserves certainty. One creates intimacy. The other slowly suffocates it. The irony feels almost unbearable. Many people spend years defending what they call standards, principles, values, self-respect, masculinity, femininity, tradition, or boundaries. Underneath the language often sits something much older. Fear. The fear that adaptation will require grief. Because adaptation always demands the death of something. A belief. An expectation. A certainty. An identity. A story. A version of ourselves. A version of our partner. Love therefore asks for a sacrifice few people anticipate. Not the sacrifice of self. The sacrifice of illusion. The illusion that the person beside you can remain unchanged while everything else in existence continues evolving. This becomes even more complicated when childhood wounds enter the relationship. An abandoned child becomes an adult demanding certainty. A neglected child becomes an adult demanding emotional guarantees. A rejected child becomes an adult demanding constant validation. The wound incurs the debt. The partner receives the invoice. What began as pain becomes expectation. Expectation becomes entitlement. Entitlement becomes rigidity. Rigidity becomes relational gravity. The relationship slowly bends around old injuries rather than present reality. Two people stop meeting each other. They begin negotiating with ghosts. One partner speaks from today. The other responds from twenty years ago. One partner changes. The other interprets the change as abandonment. One partner evolves. The other experiences evolution as betrayal. Neither understands the actual conflict. The argument appears relational. The conflict is ontological. Reality keeps moving. Someone is trying to stop it. Daoist philosophy recognized this thousands of years ago. Water never argues with the riverbed. Water never demands permanence. Water never mistakes form for essence. It changes continuously while remaining completely itself. Rain. Mist. Ice. River. Ocean. Different expressions. Same nature. Healthy love functions the same way. Its essence remains while its expression evolves. The couples who survive decades together may not possess superior communication skills. They may not possess superior compatibility. They may simply understand a truth that many never discover: Love is not measured by how tightly you hold on. Love is measured by how truthfully you participate in another person's becoming. Can you update your understanding as quickly as life updates the person you love? Can you release outdated versions of them before resentment builds a shrine around them? Can you remain curious where others become certain? Can you remain present where others become controlling? Can you bless evolution where others call it betrayal? Because eventually every intimate relationship arrives at the same doorway. On one side stands certainty. On the other stands life. You cannot hold both. The person who chooses certainty eventually loses intimacy. The person who chooses life discovers that adaptation was never the enemy. Adaptation was love's highest form of intelligence. And perhaps its most sacred expression.
Participation is no longer enough.Today's audiences expect more than a front-row seat, they want a voice in the experience itself. As attention spans shrink, technology becomes invisible, and new generations redefine engagement, brands face a critical challenge: how do you create experiences people don't just attend, but actively shape?In this episode of Inside the brand experience, host Robb Trost, Senior Director of Business Development at Invision, is joined by members of Invision's creative team—Rob Deal, Executive Creative Director, John Edgington, Creative Director, and Kat Tischler, Creative Director—to explore The future of experience design.Drawing from insights shared during their panel at PCMA Convening Leaders, the team unpacks the forces reshaping audience expectations, from the rise of neurodiversity and generational shifts to the growing role of AI and emerging technologies. Together, they examine why empathy has become a competitive advantage, why authenticity matters more than spectacle, and how brands can create experiences that invite audiences to become co-creators rather than passive participants.Through real-world examples and candid perspectives, they share how the most effective experiences are designed not around technology, but around people, and why designing for a wider range of needs often creates better outcomes for everyone.Key insights you'll learn:Why the future of experience design may have less to do with technology and more to do with empathy.How Millennials and Gen Z are redefining engagement by expecting agency, personalization, and opportunities to co-create experiences.Why the most impactful technology disappears into the background, allowing authentic human connection and storytelling to take center stage.Whether you're an experiential marketer, event strategist, or brand leader, this episode will challenge the way you think about audience engagement and reveal how the brands that win tomorrow will be the ones that design for people first.

For years, child care marketing followed a pretty familiar formula: build a beautiful website, drive traffic, collect reviews, book tours, and convert families once they walk through the door. But in 2026, that path just is not as neat or predictable as it used to be. Families are researching differently, AI is changing how information gets found, and many parents are making decisions long before they ever visit a school in person. In this episode, Jennifer sits down with Parissa Snider, Chief Marketing Officer at WatchMeGrow, for a conversation that goes far beyond ads and websites. Together, they talk about trust, transparency, parent psychology, and what the full family experience now says about your brand, from the first search to the tour to the follow-up after. This episode is a fresh look at what enrollment and marketing really mean now, and why the schools that build trust most clearly are the ones families are more likely to choose. Key Takeaways: [5:45] Marketing now lives inside the full family experience, not just in ads or website clicks. [6:10] Parents are increasingly getting answers from AI before they ever visit a school's website. [8:10] The old marketing funnel is no longer linear and has become a messy back-and-forth decision process. [8:33] Lower website traffic does not always mean lower interest if families are still converting further down the path. [10:08] Schools need website content that helps AI understand and surface real information about who they are. [12:10] FAQs matter more than ever when they answer the actual questions families are really asking. [13:01] Transparency around difficult topics is becoming a stronger trust-builder, not a liability. [15:05] In many cases, pricing transparency creates more confidence than withholding information. [19:02] The strongest websites speak to parents' fears and needs, not just the school's features. [21:11] Families want the curtain pulled back and are more likely to trust schools that show the real experience. [22:55] Trust and reassurance are deeply human needs, which is why communication matters so much in child care.

When Mayor Zohran Mamdani refused to march in New York City’s Israel Day parade - the first mayor of the city to do so in over 60 years – “did not surprise” Rabbi Josh Weinberg, who participated in the parade. But the liberal Zionist Reform rabbi was surprised to discover that he was marching alongside far-right ministers like Bezalel Smotrich and members of the Kahanist Otzma Yehudit party. Had he known, said Weinberg, Vice President of the URJ for Israel and Reform Zionism, speaking on the Haaretz Podcast, he would’ve held a sign making it clear that “Smotrich’s Zionism does not reflect our ideology at all, and is in fact antithetical to who we are as Jews and Zionists, and even as Americans. His brand of racism, discrimination, xenophobia – everything that he stands for – we want to totally reject while still maintaining our love and support for Israel." Weinberg added that a statement by Smotrich that the New York event resembled the Jerusalem Day flag march – an event regularly marked by harassment and violence towards Palestinians in the city – made him “want to throw up.” Also speaking on the podcast, Haaretz's New York correspondent Etan Nechin said that the Israeli ministers in the parade presented their presence as an “act of defiance by the Israeli Knesset and by the Israeli government” to “show” Mamdani. Assessing the mayor’s relationship with the Jewish community over the first six months of his term, Weinberg praised Mamdani’s initiative to increase spending to secure Jewish institutions with the rise of antisemitism, but regretted his boycott of the parade and his high-profile commemoration of Nakba Day online. Nechin countered with his belief that Mamdani had taken advantage of harnessing his popularity to take advantage of “this sudden historic opportunity to platform and champion Palestinian voices.” Mamdani, he said, “is a symptom of American public opinion – especially young Americans who are having conversations about Israel and Palestine, but not on Israeli or Jewish terms. It’s something that the Jewish community and Israelis will need to contend with.” Read more: Majority of Americans Hold Unfavorable Opinion of Israel as Confidence in Netanyahu Plummets, Pew Survey Finds 'We're Done Apologizing': Inside the Israeli Far Right's Big Weekend Out in New York Mamdani 'Offended' by Participation of Far-right Israeli MKs in Israel Day Parade Nearly Half of Young U.S. Jews Want to Replace Israel With Binational State, Poll Finds How Trump's Second Term Marks the Ascendance of The New Jewish Orthodox RightSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if pilgrimage is not primarily about reaching a destination, but about learning how to be addressed by reality again? In this episode of Lectern Dialogues, John Vervaeke speaks with Ish Peregrino, a practitioner, facilitator, and pilgrim whose very chosen name carries the meaning of pilgrimage. John met Ish during his own pilgrimage in Spain, and their conversation returns to the question of what pilgrimage makes possible: spiritually, psychologically, relationally, and culturally. Ish begins by describing his background in contemplative practice, community work, Latin American and Asian contexts, and his long apprenticeship under a teacher who exposed him to Hindu, Buddhist, Zen, ecological, and indigenous traditions. This opens into a discussion of the "beyond human": the sacred, the more-than-human world, distributed intelligence in community, and the goodness that calls a person toward transformation. The heart of the conversation is pilgrimage. John proposes pilgrimage as a meta-practice: a living practice that places one's whole ecology of practices under a kind of positive stress test. Ish extends this by describing how pilgrimage changes one's environment, identity, pace, attention, and relationship to grief. It is not merely a practice added to life, but a passage that can reshape the life to which one returns. The conversation then contrasts the pilgrim with the tourist and the explorer. Tourism seeks experience and pleasure; exploration seeks conquest, achievement, and control. Pilgrimage, by contrast, is marked by participation, willingness, availability, receptivity, reverence, and deep listening. It is not just movement through space, but a transformation in the way the world is allowed to speak. Toward the end, John and Ish explore pilgrimage's relationship to God, sacredness, memory, dreams, community, and integration. Ish offers one of the conversation's most memorable images: after pilgrimage, the path was still walking him in his dreams. The episode closes with the claim that pilgrimage is not only for the Camino or other famous routes. It is a way of relating differently to what is already around us: with attention, reverence, openness, and love. Key Insights Pilgrimage can function as a meta-practice that renews and tests an ecology of practices. Transformative experiences require humility, discernment, grounding, community, and integration. Tourism, exploration, and pilgrimage represent different forms of attention and agency. The pilgrim is moved less by will than by willingness, availability, and receptivity. Pilgrimage can awaken a deeper relationship to God, sacredness, land, grief, and community. The return from pilgrimage is not an afterthought; integration is central to whether revelation becomes transformation. Pilgrimage can be practiced locally through reverence, attention, threshold-crossing, and renewed relationship.

In this episode, hosts Matthew Januszek and Mohammed Iqbal are joined by Dr. Brent Anderson, founder of Polestar Pilates, physical therapist, educator, and one of the most respected voices in the global Pilates industry. Pilates has become one of the fastest-growing categories in fitness. Participation continues to rise, studios are expanding globally, and demand shows little sign of slowing down. Yet despite its popularity, Pilates remains one of the most misunderstood modalities in the industry. This conversation explores why Pilates has experienced such remarkable growth, whether the category is approaching saturation, and what operators, investors, and fitness professionals often misunderstand about the methodology behind its success. Drawing on more than four decades of experience in rehabilitation, movement science, and Pilates education, Dr. Anderson explains how Pilates evolved from a niche practice used primarily by dancers and physical therapists into a global wellness phenomenon. He also shares why he believes the category still has significant room to grow. The discussion dives into the growing role of technology, connected equipment, and performance data within Pilates, and examines how innovation can help operators improve outcomes without losing sight of the principles that made Pilates effective in the first place. The episode also explores one of the most surprising trends in fitness today: younger consumers are increasingly embracing Pilates as part of a broader shift toward wellness, longevity, recovery, and preventative health. As wellness becomes a daily lifestyle rather than an occasional activity, Pilates is finding relevance across new demographics and markets around the world. For fitness operators, studio owners, educators, investors, and wellness professionals, this episode offers a fascinating look at why Pilates continues to grow, what makes it so effective, and where the category may be heading next. In this episode, we cover: Why Pilates continues to grow globally What most people misunderstand about Pilates How technology is changing the Pilates experience Whether the industry is approaching saturation Why Pilates may become a pillar of wellness and healthcare
In this message from our Fundamentals series, Pastor Josh teaches on participation: the call for believers to move beyond passive observation and actively live out their faith in Christ. The Christian life is not meant to be watched from a distance. It is meant to be lived with genuine love, fervent faith, deep community, forgiveness, hospitality, and prayer. Through Romans 12, this message contrasts the marks of a true Christian with the patterns of the surrounding culture. While culture often celebrates retaliation, self-protection, and conditional love, followers of Jesus are called to bless those who persecute them, overcome evil with good, and pursue a life shaped by Christ. Pastor Josh highlights three practical anchors from Romans 12:12: rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, and be constant in prayer. Participation means abiding in Christ daily, pursuing the family of God intentionally, and prioritizing prayer so that our lives are formed by the presence of God rather than the pull of culture.
