In their follow-up novel, 2054, they envisioned a breakdown in American politics fueled by a radical advance in AI. Now they make their boldest, most astonishing, and arguably most necessary leap—imagining the consequences of a climate war. By the year 2084, the world is divided into the equatorial countries that bear the brunt of the climate crisis—led by Nigeria, Brazil, and Indonesia—and wealthier countries like China and the US, beset by their own problems after a series of civil wars. Tensions between the two sets of countries have reached a breaking point, until finally the so-called Reparationist nations of the equator decide that only military force can bring them justice. A fascinating and disturbingly plausible extrapolation from current realities, 2084, like other classics of the genre such as Kim Stanley Robinson's The Ministry for the Future and Neal Stephenson's Termination Shock, deploys a global cast of characters, all protecting their interests as the fate of human civilization hangs in the balance. Individuals often seem small in the face of the forces that drive global change, but in the end human agency proves surprisingly decisive. Big doors can swing on small hinges. We have it within ourselves to write a different destiny, if only we can imagine it. Elliot Ackerman is the author of several novels, most recently Red Dress In Black and White. His books have been nominated for the National Book Award, the Andrew Carnegie Medal in both fiction and non-fiction, and the Dayton Literary Peace Prize among others. His writing often appears in Esquire, The New Yorker, and The New York Times where he is a contributing opinion writer, and his stories have been included inThe Best American Short Stories and The Best American Travel Writing. He is both a former White House Fellow and Marine, and served five tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan, where he received the Silver Star, the Bronze Star for Valor, and the Purple Heart. He divides his time between New York City and Washington, D.C. Website: www. ElliotAckerman.com; Twitter: @elliotackerman Admiral James Stavridis, USN (Ret.) spent more than thirty years in the U.S. Navy, rising to the rank of four-star Admiral.

He holds a Ph.D. from The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University, where he recently served five years as dean.

Dana White's everywhere right now. Time Magazine. Rolling Stone. NPR. The New Yorker. Wait, what? The New Yorker? Believe it. Leading up to the UFC's Big Boy Birthday Bash at the White House, Dana's on a media tour with the actual, legitimate mainstream media. Not surprisingly, he's spent a LOT of that time talking about himself and his very special relationship with ya boi D-Tiddy, and not much time at all talking about the actual fights or the fighters. No surprise there. But, wait, did Dana seriously just find out THIS WEEK during his talk with New Yorker editor David Remnick that there had previously been sexual abuse allegations against Michael Jackson? That might be the wildest part of this whole thing. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Want more peace, presence + intuition in your life? Click here to download 6 Free Guided Meditations from The Miracle of You: https://www.alyssanobriga.com/miracleofyou-richard ==== What if just 5 minutes a day could change your brain, body + life? In this episode of The Healing + Human Potential Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Richard Davidson, a Harvard-trained psychologist + meditation researcher, to explore the science of meditation, neuroplasticity + what it really means to flourish. Richard shares why meditation isn't about stopping your thoughts, how even small daily practices can create measurable change + why flourishing is a skill we can cultivate through awareness, connection, insight + purpose. We also explore what long-term meditators reveal about the brain, how emotions can move through us without becoming who we are + the fascinating research around Tibetan monks, death + consciousness. If you've ever felt like your mind is too busy to meditate, or wondered whether meditation is actually working, this episode offers a grounded, science-backed path back to presence. ==== Guest Bio: Davidson received his Ph.D. in Psychology from Harvard University in 1976. His research is broadly focused on the neural bases of emotion, emotional style, and methods to promote human flourishing, including meditation and related contemplative practices. He has published over 600 papers, numerous chapters and reviews, and has edited more than 20 books. Davidson released his newest book, Born to Flourish, with Cortland Dahl in March 2026. Together, they bring neuroscience and contemplative science to the exploration of well-being and meaning amid the growing challenges of modern life. The book focuses on small, evidence-based practices while also examining the broader societal conditions shaping attention, emotion, and human connection. Davidson is also the author, with Sharon Begley, of The Emotional Life of Your Brain (2012), and co-author, with Daniel Goleman, of Altered Traits (2017). He was named one of the 100 most influential people in the world by Time Magazine in 2006, elected to the National Academy of Medicine in 2017, and appointed to the Governing Board of UNESCO's Mahatma Gandhi Institute of Education for Peace and Sustainable Development (MGIEP) in 2018. In 2014, Davidson founded Humin (formerly Healthy Minds Innovations), a global nonprofit with a mission to make wellbeing real by translating science into action.

With a Ph.D. in Sociology and a Masters in Multidisciplinary Gender Studies from the University of Cambridge and a Bachelors in Medical Anthropology from Stanford University, Anna translates her academic knowledge into clear and engaging stories. Her articles have been published by TIME Magazine, New York Magazine, CNN, Motherly, The Huffington Post, For Harriet, The Guardian, Darling Magazine, and Blavity.

Dr. Michael Valdovinos is a board-certified clinical psychologist and U.S. Air Force veteran. His new book is Moral Injuries: When Good Conscience Suffers in a World of Hurt. His writing has appeared in The Guardian and Time Magazine. Valdovinos argues that the Age of Trump has inflicted a collective moral injury on millions of Americans — the psychological wound that comes from witnessing or being powerless to stop something that violates your deepest sense of right and wrong. He warns that a reckoning will soon be upon us all. Our collective exhaustion, confusion, and dread are normal responses to a profoundly abnormal social and political environment. Drawing on hard-earned experience as an instructor in the military's SERE program (survival, evasion, resistance, and escape) and work with the special operations community, Valdovinos offers wisdom many of us desperately need right now: Keep moving. Do not betray your values. Surrender is not an option. Chauncey DeVega reconvenes the secular church family, "marks out" over WrestleMania 42, and honors some of his favorite actors who have recently left this dimension of space and time and transitioned to the next Patrick Muldoon, Valerie Perrine, Matt DeCaro, and TV legend Sid Krofft. Knowing is half the battle. He explains how authoritarians use "hypernormalization" to disorient the public, drain their emotions, and ultimately create a state of learned helplessness among a targeted population. And Chauncey reflects on the failed assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents' dinner, the dangerous allure of conspiracism, and how too many people are lost in the surreal in this increasingly sick society.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly share their observations on creating success in your career. John mentions that he started out as a CPA and became an entrepreneur when he was 30. Then he was in seven different businesses in his 30s and 40s. But in retrospect, he sees that he was not connected to any of them emotionally. Then when he turned 50, he got in the reverse mortgage business. A business he was, in fact, emotionally connected to. Because he had seen how investment advisors had tried to coerce his mom into various investments after is dad had died at John's age of 24. He saw that those investment advisors didn't have his mom's best interest at heart. So when he got into the reverse mortgage business, he was committed to treating all his customers like his own parents. So that was the emotional connection.And the big Takeaway is that whatever business or industry you are in, you need to be passionate about it. You need to be emotionally connected to it in order for you to thrive long-term. John then gets into more detail about what took his income, when he was in his mid-50s, to 25 times the $200,000 – $300,000 a year he making the prior 20 years. He saw that he was doing three high-performance skills he never was doing before. He was highly organized. Planning is day the night before and time blocking is days. He was deep thinking two times a week. Tuning into reality. Growing every week from experts in areas that he needed in order to be successful as an entrepreneur. Primarily in marketing.Then John saw that through the think it be it methodology he was feeding himself six key things every day. His business plan, his strategy for success, the two or three things that move the needle, where he wanted the business to be three years from now, the 4-5 milestones to get there, and the linchpin issue to go to the next level. From feeding those six things to himself every day, he continually refined his understanding of those key components every day. So it was that combination of doing those three high-performance skills coupled with a continually evolving deeper understanding of his business that caused his income to go up by 25 times. And lastly, John talks about if you're an employee, you are, in fact, really an entrepreneur. The same concepts apply. Your career is your business. Buy John's book, THE MISSING SECRET of the Legendary Book Think and Grow Rich : And a 12-minute-a-day technique to apply it here.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn't as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there's a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.John's technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.Reach out to John at john@thinkitbeit.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-mitchell-76483654/Kelly HatfieldKelly Hatfield is an entrepreneur at heart.

This and all episodes at: https://aiandyou.net/ . What is AI doing and going to do to job opportunities? What does it mean to have enough, and who has too little, and what's fair? One answer to that is to look at inequality; how different are the financial circumstances of one set of people compared to another?

He writes the American Inequality newsletter and was previously a macroeconomic policymaker at the Federal Reserve.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly talk about taking the advanced leadership of self 12 minute a day methodology to the next level. Using AI. And here's the thing to appreciate. At the end the day, one success is determined by taking the right actions on a consistent basis. On the issue of consistently taking the right actions, that's addressed in the 12 minute day methodology. 95% of your daily actions are unconscious. When you feed the succinct articulation of your desired life yourself each day, that's the repetition the subconscious mind needs to rewire your autopilot. So you have control over those unconscious daily actions. That way you can do them consistently rather than sporadically.But here's the other issue. You have to be taking the right actions. So consider this. The right actions regarding your health are pretty straightforward. Regarding eating right and exercising. Same with having a great romantic relationship. The right actions are pretty straightforward. But when he gets to one's career, the right actions are not nearly as obvious. And in methodology, for your career you establish where you want your career to be three years from now. And the 4-5 milestones to get there. That gives you a guidepost for the right actions to take. But here's the problem. Your vision is trapped by the four walls of your own mind. Your vision of the right actions is constrained by your own biases and limited knowledge. But this can be overcome. And is being overcome using AI in the advanced leadership of self methodology. In this episode Kelly explains her three year vision for her business. As well as the three or four milestones to get there. Then once this is established, John and Kelly gives it all to chat GPT. Chat GPT then gives a much deeper view of the right actions. This overcomes one's limited vision from the four walls of one's own mind.Buy John's book, THE MISSING SECRET of the Legendary Book Think and Grow Rich : And a 12-minute-a-day technique to apply it here.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing.

Huldeblyke stroom in na die dood van die media-magnaat en filantroop, die 87-jarige Ted Turner wat CNN gestig het. Die sakeman van Atlanta het die moderne 24-uur nuuskultuur begin toe hy die CNN-kanaal in 1980 bekendgestel het. Turner is as ʼn visionêr beskou en was in 1991 TIME Magazine se “Man van die Jaar”. Hy het in 2018 onthul dat hy aan Lewy-liggaam-demensie, ʼn progressiewe brein-versteuring, ly. CNN se uitvoerende hoof, Mark Thompson, beskryf Turner as ʼn visionêr en natuurkrag:
In previous episodes, we've discussed how some genres are more aesthetic-driven (like sci fi & fantasy) and others are more structure-driven (like romance and mystery). So how do subgenres within SFF play with elements of both? How can we blend tropes and reader expectations to put fresh spins on familiar subgenres? Four-time guest and friend of the podcast Fonda Lee joins us to explore the possibilities and potential pitfalls. A lot of "genre" is really about marketing and packaging, so we also discuss the effects of knowing that end result on the process itself. How is it different if we start out with an idea of "I am going to write This Subgenre Thing" versus starting out with less of that marketing-minded specificity? How much do we play into or subvert a reader's expectations? Navigating that can be a high-wire act, trying to present new things that will delight and surprise a reader without knocking them out of the story. And what do we do if the packaging, which authors often have no control over, doesn't quite paint the right picture of the actual book? We also talk about some recent trends and shifts within SFF subgenres. [Transcript TK] Our Guest: Fonda Lee is the award-winning, New York Times bestselling author of the Green Bone Saga, consisting of the novels Jade City, Jade War, and Jade Legacy, along with a prequel novella The Jade Setter of Janloon and a short story collection, Jade Shards. Her newest book is the science fiction novel The Last Contract of Isako. She is also the author of the fantasy novella, Untethered Sky and several young adult novels: Zeroboxer, the Exo duology, and the Breathmarked duology, co-written with Shannon Lee. Fonda is a winner of the World Fantasy Award, the Locus Award, and a six-time winner of the Aurora Award (Canada's national science fiction and fantasy award), as well as a multiple finalist for the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award. Her novels have garnered multiple starred reviews and appeared on Best of Year lists from NPR, Barnes & Noble, Syfy Wire, and others. Jade City has been translated into fifteen languages, named to TIME Magazine's Top 100 Fantasy Books of All Time, and optioned for television development. She has also written acclaimed short fiction and been an instructor at writing workshops including Clarion West, Viable Paradise, and Aspen Words. Fonda is a former corporate strategist and black belt martial artist who loves action movies and Eggs Benedict. Hailing from Canada and the Pacific Northwest, she now resides in the Boston area.

They go on very different, sometimes heartbreaking journeys. But their shared childhood always binds them together. GUEST: Tayari Jones: Bestselling author of five novels, including An American Marriage and Kin, both of which were selected for Oprah's Book Club.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly explain that the mind thrives on order. And when you feed the succinct articulation of your life to yourself each day you create immense order in the mind. And as Kelly points out, it makes you feel lighter. It causes all those half thoughts that are going on in your head to either go away or become full thoughts. To drive home this idea that the mind thrives on order, John points out that's why you enjoy music. A few years back, John learned how to play blues guitar. And in the process of doing so, he learned the timing in music. So in this podcast, he plays the song Billie Jean by Michael Jackson. Explains the timing and then counts it. This is a vivid example of how the mind thrives on order. To wrap things up, John makes a point of how one's success in life as well as one's enjoyment of life comes down to the thoughts that are going on in your head on an ongoing basis. So simple but many people don't get this. But for the few that do, it's life-changing. The think it be it methodology influences the creation of your thoughts.Buy John's book, THE MISSING SECRET of the Legendary Book Think and Grow Rich : And a 12-minute-a-day technique to apply it here.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly talk about how the think it be it life GPS template is set up around your career. There are six things you need to define. Your business plan, your strategy for success, the two – three things that move the needle, where you want your business to be three years from now. The 4 - 5 milestones to get there, and the linchpin issue to go to the next level. But maybe the most important of the six is defining your three year vision for your business. Once you see where you want to go, then you will define the 4-5 milestones to get there from where you are today. That gives you the path. But the lesson from today's podcast is it's all about clarity. The clearer you see where you're going, the more clear it is what the right actions are to get there. John and Kelly talk about over the years with their think it be it business, and some years they liked the three year vision and some years they didn't like the direction. So it's valuable on an every six month basis to assess on a scale of 1 to 10 how well you like your three year career vision. If you don't find yourself liking it to the level of a nine or 10, maybe it's better to spend more time figuring out how to get it to that nine or 10 than continuing to continuing to pursue a three year vision that you don't fully embrace. Clarity always brings the right actions to the surface. Buy John's book, THE MISSING SECRET of the Legendary Book Think and Grow Rich : And a 12-minute-a-day technique to apply it here.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn't as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there's a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.John's technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.Reach out to John at john@thinkitbeit.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-mitchell-76483654/Kelly HatfieldKelly Hatfield is an entrepreneur at heart.

Nothing in biology is random. Not growth. Not metabolism. Not disease. What we will explore today is the reality that the earliest inputs in life: nutrition, environment, signaling, don't just influence outcomes… They shape them. They write the first draft. And if you understand that, if you truly let that land, then everything about how we approach pregnancy, childhood, and prevention begins to shift. From reaction…to intention. From downstream management…to upstream design. Why This Conversation Matters This episode is not just another discussion. In many ways, it is ground zero. Because if you don't understand this layer, the imprinting, the epigenetic programming, the responsiveness of biology to environment, then everything that follows in this podcast…becomes harder to fully see. But once you do see it, the picture sharpens. You begin to understand:why trajectories diverge early, why children present so differently and why the same diagnosis can have completely different roots. This is the beginning of a new map. And maps matter. Gratitude to Today's Guests I want to take a moment to acknowledge the voices you heard today—because this kind of thinking doesn't happen by accident. Lucia Aronica Dr. Aronica is a Stanford scientist and a global authority in nutritional epigenetics, helping clinicians understand that food is not simply fuel—it is biological information that actively programs gene expression. She created Stanford's first courses in nutritional epigenetics and pioneered the Epinutrition framework, a clinical model that reframes nutrition as signaling, not supplementation. You may recognize her from the Netflix documentary You Are What You Eat: A Twin Experiment, and she is now launching the world's first Clinical Epinutrition Certification, training health professionals to use food as epigenetic medicine. Emily Stone Rydbom Emily is a clinical nutritionist, researcher, and digital health founder working at the frontier of precision maternal nutrition. As Founder and CEO of GrowBaby Health, and through her work with GrowHealth Technologies, she is building AI-enabled systems that integrate nutrition directly into standard obstetric care. With over 14 years of clinical experience, she has helped pioneer the “Standard of Care PLUS” model, demonstrating meaningful reductions in preterm birth and gestational diabetes in high-risk populations. She is also a co-investigator on the ROOT Study—bringing this work directly into real-world maternal care here in North Carolina. Samantha N. Fessler Dr. Fessler brings a deep scientific lens to the intersection of metabolism, inflammation, and perinatal nutrition. With a PhD in Exercise and Nutritional Sciences from Arizona State University, her work has focused on how nutritional strategies can modulate the interplay between immune signaling and metabolic function to improve outcomes for mothers and children. As Director of Scientific Affairs at Needed, she helps translate rigorous science into actionable, evidence-based approaches that clinicians and families can actually use. Randy L. Jirtle And finally, Dr. Randy Jirtle—joining us again—whose work, quite simply, changed how we understand biology. A pioneer in epigenetics and genomic imprinting, Dr. Jirtle's research on the agouti mouse model demonstrated for the first time that environmental inputs—particularly nutrition and chemical exposure—could directly alter gene expression across generations. His work reframed the gene from a fixed sentence…to a responsive system. In fact, Time Magazine once described it this way:“A gene represents less of an inexorable sentence and more of an access point for the environment to modify the genome.” He is a Professor of Epigenetics at North Carolina State University and Senior Scientist at University of Wisconsin–Madison and remains, at his core, a deeply curious thinker. And that curiosity… is what moved this field forward. Final Thought: If there is one takeaway from today, it is this: The environment is not acting on the child. The child is responding to the environment. And that response…is being written into biology. Dr. M

Under his leadership, Atlas Primer has grown into a globally recognized edtech and AI company, earning placement among Time Magazine's top 250 edtech companies. Before founding Atlas Primer, Hinrik worked as a lecturer, where he identified gaps in traditional learning methods. Paul Burani is the Co-founder and CRO of Atlas Primer, an AI-powered platform designed to unlock human potential through conversational learning and real-world practice. He is a seasoned revenue leader with over two decades of experience in sales, marketing, and go-to-market strategy. Prior to Atlas Primer, Paul held leadership roles at companies like Google, Foursquare, and Udacity and founded multiple ventures, including Mission Flywheel. In this episode… Practice is easy to talk about, but much harder to do consistently where it actually matters. In a world where AI can handle so much of the prep work, what really separates top performers from everyone else? Hinrik Jósafat Atlason, a technology leader focused on human-centered learning, believes the answer lies in how well people show up in real conversations. He explains that while AI can support research and outreach, the final outcome still depends on human connection, often shaped in high-stakes, real-time interactions. Paul Burani adds that consistent, realistic practice, especially in challenging scenarios like objections or negotiations, helps build the confidence and nuance that can't be learned passively. Together, their perspectives highlight that performance improves not through more information, but through deliberate, repeatable practice. In this episode of the Inspired Insider Podcast, Dr. Jeremy Weisz interviews Hinrik Jósafat Atlason and Paul Burani about using AI to turn practice into real-world performance. They discuss how conversational roleplay accelerates sales readiness, how companies reduce ramp time with simulation, and why feedback is the most valuable part of training. They also discuss preparing teams for high-stakes moments, such as trade shows and customer interactions.

Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor's fascination with brain health and human psychology began with a personal question: why do people perceive the same world so differently? After growing up with a brother diagnosed with schizophrenia, she dedicated her life to understanding the brain. At age 37, she suffered a massive stroke and watched her brain shut down in real time. That experience gave her rare insight into how the brain truly works. In this episode, Dr. Jill shares her whole-brain framework and explains how understanding our four brain characters can transform how we think, feel, and show up in life and business.
