In this episode, I am joined by Dr Christopher “Hareesh” Wallis, a Sanskritist and scholar-practitioner of Classical Tantra. Christopher recounts his unusual upbringing, early meetings with Osho and Muktananda, early shaktipat experiences, and powerful spiritual awakenings. Christopher traces his educational journey under professors such as Douglas Brooks and Alexis G. J. S. Sanderson, offers his opinions about optimal pedagogy for Sanskrit language study, and questions lineage claims made in Tibetan Buddhism. Christopher also considers the tension between religious faith and academic skepticism, explains why he thinks it is possible to receive spiritual benefit from corrupt gurus, and descries why he believes spiritual awakening leads to a deep trust in the unfolding of life. … Video version: www.guruviking.com Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'. … Topics include: 00:00 - Intro 00:57 - An unusual family of origin 03:28 - Mother's conversion to Hinduism 03:50 - Meeting Osho and Swami Muktananda 05:17 - Awakening experience at 16 years old 05:55 - Attraction to Tantric Shaivism 07:35 - Academic training and intellectual infatuation 09:00 - Multiple teachers 10:13 - Seeing through intellectual ego 12:57 - Teenage rebellion and psychedelics 14:44 - Love of sci fi and fantasy 17:05 - Siddha yoga shaktipat 18:33 - Gurumayi Chidvilasananda 20:33 - Heart opening shaktipat 24:01 - Saint or psychopath? 28:26 - The guru's shadow 30:18 - Transmission from a disgraced guru 32:25 - No single objective reality 35:32 - No doubts despite guru's flaws 38:18 - Has Christopher missed the point? 39:53 - Parsing subjective certainty 41:55 - A belief but not really 43:21 - Innate intelligence and trusting the unfolding of life 46:50 - Harmonising with the pattern 50:17 - Don't pretend to be more enlightened that you are 51:56 - The same awakening as the Buddha's 54:22 - Waking up out of your tradition 55:32 - Agnosticism about reincarnation 57:29 - BA at Rochester 01:00:53 - Alexis G.

Dans cet épisode de L'Entreprise de demain, il est question de leadership exercé sur vingt-cinq ans entre trois cultures, où l'exigence absolue sur l'identité de marque se conjugue avec humilité managériale.J'ai le plaisir et l'honneur de recevoir aujourd'hui Alain Bernard, dirigeant international dans l'univers du luxe. Il a dirigé Van Cleef & Arpels au Japon puis aux États-Unis, pris la tête de Richemont Amérique du Nord, et est aujourd'hui, entre autres, Board Member de Messika. Son parcours manager est celui d'un ingénieur devenu manager-coach, capable d'articuler vision créative et rigueur opérationnelle dans des environnements multiculturels exigeants.L'échange révèle une posture managériale singulière, construite sur une conviction forte : dans le luxe comme ailleurs, "les choses vraiment importantes, il n'y en a pas beaucoup". Alain décrit comment cette capacité de discernement, savoir distinguer l'essentiel dans le bombardement quotidien d'informations et de sollicitations, structure toute sa pratique managériale. Il explique pourquoi le luxe, c'est "dire non à 99% des opportunités" pour rester obsessionnellement clair sur l'identité de sa marque.Une large partie de l'épisode est consacrée à ce qu'Alain appelle l'équilibre "cerveau gauche, cerveau droit" : comment un profil analytique et structuré développe une sensibilité humaine, produit et créative pour manager efficacement dans un univers où cohabitent artisans, créatifs et industriels. Il raconte l'anecdote du séminaire stratégique chez Van Cleef où le consultant a été renvoyé au bout d'un jour : "le vrai exercice, c'est de savoir qui on est vraiment. Si on est très clair sur cette identité, il n'y a même plus besoin de parler stratégie."L'épisode aborde également la transformation progressive d'Alain vers une posture de manager-coach, où la transmission prend le pas sur le contrôle. Il décrit comment il s'est mis volontairement en retrait sur des sujets qu'il maîtrise moins (retail, produit, marketing), pour se concentrer sur ce qu'il sait faire : aider les gens à grandir, à prendre du recul, à discerner. Il partage son ambition pour les dix prochaines années : être comme quelqu'un qui a aidé 2-3 personnes à grandir, avec qui "on s'est bien marrés à travailler ensemble". Cette approche reflète un impact managérial centré sur l'engagement des collaborateurs et leur développement.L'échange traverse également les différences culturelles France-Japon-États-Unis, non comme un catalogue de stéréotypes, mais comme un terrain d'apprentissage sur l'adaptation de posture, la gestion de la performance et les rapports au collectif. Alain Bernard décrit comment chaque culture l'a transformé : le Japon lui a appris la patience et le temps long, les États-Unis l'ont poussé à assumer son ambition et sa clarté de vision. Ces années ont façonné sa transformation du management, passant d'une posture de contrôle à un leadership "d'accompagnement".Cet épisode apporte des repères concrets et profondément humains aux managers qui cherchent à construire une pratique de leadership durable, fondée sur le discernement, l'identité claire et la transmission. Alain Bernard incarne une approche managériale rare : faire les choses très sérieusement sans jamais se prendre au sérieux, et considérer le monde professionnel comme "une grande scène de théâtre" où l'on joue sa partition du mieux possible, avant d'en ressortir.S'inscrire à la newsletter gratuite Le Cercle des Leaders de demain :
While the industry often focuses on the cost of the hardware, the real challenge and value lies in successfully delivering, integrating, and operating these assets over their lifetime. As the market matures, the focus shifts from hardware procurement to the complexities of site integration, grid compliance, and ensuring long-term availability.In practice, microgrids are shaping how large-scale energy projects operate, helping to accelerate the use of grid-forming technology. Meanwhile, combining solar with battery storage is becoming an increasingly effective way to reduce wasted energy and improve project economics.In this conversation, Ed speaks with Lucie Kanius-Dujardin, Global Managing Director at NHOA, about what it really takes to deliver complex energy projects at scale. They discuss the realities of managing global supply chains, the push toward higher-capacity battery cells, and why the often-overlooked “brain” of the system - the Power Plant Controller - is just as important as the battery itself.Key topics discussed•Why the Power Plant Controller is critical to smooth commissioning and reliable performance - not just an add-on to the hardware.• How experience with microgrids has created an edge in deploying grid-forming technology on modern transmission networks.• Why more developers are pairing solar with storage to protect revenues and reduce grid constraints.• Whether a single global solution can work across very different local grid rules, from Scotland to Australia.• How integrators are keeping systems reliable as battery cells rapidly increase in size and capacity.About our guestLucie Kanius-Dujardin is the Global Managing Director of NHOA Energy, a global provider of turnkey battery energy storage solutions.

The power grid is getting harder to run. There's more wind and solar on the system, more sudden weather shocks, and less room for mistakes. How can the energy industry move past basic demand forecasts and focus on the tougher question: what's the grid really going to need once you account for renewables?In this conversation, Alex is joined by Sean Kelly, CEO of Amperon. They explore how new weather models are offering better visibility for renewables and how the growing impact of data centers on electricity demand and grid planning is affecting markets, from Texas to Europe.Key topics discussed:• How forecasting accuracy can make or break performance during grid stress events.• Why forecasting 'net demand' is changing how renewable generation and storage is operated and traded.• How better forecasting is changing who wins (and loses) in power markets.• How data access and quality varies across ERCOT, NYISO, and European TSOs.• What rapid data center growth means for load, reliability, and energy security.About our guestSean Kelly is the Co-founder and CEO of Amperon, an AI-powered forecasting company built for the energy transition. Former energy trader with 20+ years of experience, including managing power portfolios and nuclear integration at EDF. Sean started Amperon after seeing firsthand how messy and limiting energy data can be and how much better decisions could be with the right tools.

You just don't know you're fighting it yet.**In 1884, Edwin Abbott wrote *Flatland* - a mathematical romance about a two-dimensional world where beings live as shapes on a plane, unable to perceive the third dimension of depth. He thought he was writing social satire.**He was actually writing a transmission about 2026.**About YOU.Living in a reality you think is solid, complete, “realistic” - while being completely blind to dimensions you can't perceive.**Your worth measured in 2D metrics:** Credentials. Salary. Followers. Job titles.**Your identity flattened to geometry:** How many “sides” you've accumulated in the game of status.**Your future planned on a horizontal plane:** Assuming linear time, guaranteed tomorrows, safe predictability.**You are A Square. And you don't even know you're trapped.**-----## What if I told you there's a vertical dimension hiding in plain sight?**Not “up” in some abstract spiritual sense.**But **UP** as in: *What becomes visible when death shatters your 2D certainty?*When you're fired after 26 years and your identity evaporates.When someone you love faces mortality and all your careful plans dissolve.When you turn fifty and realize you don't fit in the traditional game anymore.**These aren't tragedies. These are dimensional initiations.**Moments when the **Sphere** - a being from a higher dimension - enters your flat world and shows you: *Everything you thought was solid is just a cross-section.*-----## This episode activates your Reticular Activating System.That part of your brain that filters reality - deciding what you notice and what you ignore.**After this episode, your RAS will be tuned to see Flatland everywhere:**- In conversations where people brag about credentials- In systems designed to keep you flat and measurable- In your own thoughts when you catch yourself playing the 2D game- **In the moments when death whispers: “None of this is real”****Once activated, you can't deactivate it.**You'll start seeing the prison bars. The dimensional limitations. The game beneath the game.**And you won't be able to unsee it.**-----## This isn't a book review. This is an initiation.I've been lifted out of Flatland three times:- **Fired after 26 years** (identity death - the 2D game of job = worth revealed as illusion)- **Wife fighting cancer** (mortality confrontation - the future I was planning for might not exist)- **Turning fifty** (threshold moment - realizing I don't fit in the traditional workforce anymore)**These were my Sphere moments.** When death entered my flat world and showed me dimensions I couldn't perceive before.Now I'm back in Flatland. But I'm… changed.I can't play the game anymore. Can't pretend credentials matter. Can't believe in “realistic” thinking.**Because I've seen the vertical dimension.**And once you've been there - once you've been initiated by death, loss, shattering - **you can never fully believe in Flatland again.**-----## What you'll discover in this episode:**The architecture of Flatland** - How 2D thinking imprisons you without you realizing it**Death as the third dimension** - The vertical axis that breaks the flat plane of “normal life”**Your initiations** - Recognizing the moments when the Sphere appeared in YOUR life (and you might have missed it)**The RAS activation** - How this episode will permanently change what you perceive in your reality**The elder's burden** - What to do when you've been lifted out but dropped back into a world that thinks you're crazy-----## WARNING: This is not safe content.This episode is designed to make you **dangerously curious** and **a little uncomfortable.**Not reassured. Not inspired in the Instagram quote way.**Initiated.**By the end, you'll question:- Whether your job defines you (it doesn't - that's Flatland)- Whether your plans are guaranteed (they're not - that's 2D thinking)- Whether “being realistic” is wisdom (it's not - it's prison maintenance)- **Whether consensus reality is actually real (it's not - it's Flatland)**You'll start seeing patterns you can't unsee.Noticing dimensional breaks you used to ignore.Recognizing when death is trying to teach you something.**And there's no going back.**-----## This is Part 1 of a 6-episode series exploring:**Episode 1:** You Are Living in Flatland (And You Don't Even Know It) ← *You are here***Episode 2:** The Sphere Has Already Appeared. You Just Don't Remember Yet.**Episode 3:** Being Lifted Out - What You See From the Vertical Dimension**Episode 4:** Dropped Back In - When You Can't Fit in Flatland Anymore**Episode 5:** The Prison of Consensus Reality - Why They'll Call You Crazy**Episode 6:** Living Between Dimensions - The Work of the Initiated-----## Required reading (but read it AFTER this episode):***Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions*** by Edwin Abbott Abbott (1884)- Free online, any edition- ~100 pages- **Warning:** After this podcast series, you won't read it as fiction-----## The quote that changes everything:*“You are not crazy for seeing dimensions others can't perceive. You've just been initiated by death. And prisoners who see the bars become insurgents.”*-----**Your RAS is now activated.****You can't unknow this.****Welcome to the vertical dimension.****Welcome to the resistance.**-----*Initiated by death. Returned to Flatland. Speaking from the vertical dimension.**This is the Flatland series. This is the dimensional war.**And you just enlisted.*-----**[CONTENT WARNING: Discusses death, mortality, job loss, cancer, identity dissolution, dimensional initiation, reality destabilization, and the systematic dismantling of consensus thinking. Not recommended for those committed to remaining comfortably two-dimensional.]**-----## About this series:Following the 5-episode *Don Quixote* initiation series (where we explored tilting at windmills, vision vs delusion, defeat at fifty, and coming home), the *Flatland* series takes you deeper into dimensional knowing.**This is live philosophy.** Real-time transformation documented through literature.Not memoir. Not self-help.**Transmission from someone who's been lifted out and dropped back.**Consider this your field manual for the dimensional war.-----*Listen with headphones. Take notes.

Please join us for these series of three sessions where we deepen the opening of the heart center and unconditional love for ourselves, others, and all objects and beings.This is the first of the three series.In this series we explore three major angles for opening the heart that are both spiritual and practical. We ask the Divine, Our Spiritual Guides and Teachers, the Arcturians, and Other Awakened Beings, Angels, Archangels, Our Holy Guardian Angel, and Our Higher Self to download the patterns, energies, and frequencies to move our heart center to the next level of openness and connection.In this first session, we fully open the 12 Lotus Petals of the Heart-This is a framework espoused by Rudolf Steiner that suggests that currently 6 lotus petals of the heart chakra are currently opened in all of humanity. Our goal in each incarnation is to further open the remaining six lotus petals. We go over how this is done with Steiner's and other spiritual traditions' practices. When the full 12 lotus petals of the heart are opened, we can be illuminated at a higher level through the crown and head centers.

VICTORIOUS YOU - All Things Spiritual with Isabelle von Fallois
In this deeply honest and expansive Episode of the VICTORIOUS YOU Podcast, I am joined by the radiant Ola Skibicka for a powerful conversation about truth, freedom, integrity, and conscious embodiment in this new reality.Sometimes souls recognize each other instantly.When Ola and I first connected, it clicked immediately ~ we discovered our shared love for Botticelli, Rachmaninoff, and so much more, and from that very first moment, a deep resonance was present.Together, we explore what it truly means to become a vessel of truth ~ to integrate all parts of ourselves, to live in Oneness while walking a Planet of Duality, and to embody love, integrity, and conscious creatorship in everyday life. In this Episode we speak about
This live Transmission was shared inside the first gathering of COMMUNION Blooming, a year long garden journey of community immersed in the planetary energy theme of 2026. The Transmission itself runs approx 28.5 minutes and the remaining 10 minutes are excerpts of my teaching in response to some wonderful community prompts.

Batteries are no longer just shifting energy from one time of day to another - they're becoming critical grid infrastructure. But to unlock their full potential, we need smarter ways to manage billions of data points in real time, so storage can deliver everything from peak shaving to power quality and grid support and keep them operating safely, efficiently, and optimally.In this conversation, Ed is joined by Roger Hollies, Chief Technical Officer at Arenko. Over the conversation, they discuss how market governance needs to evolve, why it's time to crack open the ‘black box' of automated trading, and how ‘rules as code' could be the key to unlocking a cleaner, cheaper energy future.Key topics discussed:How software can make ultra-complex battery assets manageable.Why batteries are overtaking fossil fuels in essential grid roles like frequency response, voltage control, and inertia.The data infrastructure required to handle seven billion datapoints a day across global energy portfolios.How open-source, “rules as code” market design could speed up innovation.What must regulators do to enforce fair markets and guarantee top-tier service delivery.About our guestRoger Hollies is the Chief Technology Officer at Arenko, where he leads the development of Arenko's Nimbus platform, a software solution that currently manages 1.2 gigawatts of battery, solar, and wind assets across the UK and international markets.

In this episode of Powerline Podcast, I sit down with Mackenzie Rodgers, Vice President of Transmission & Distribution Operations at Arizona Public Service, for a powerful conversation on leadership, legacy, and long-term growth in the utility industry.Mackenzie shares her journey from interning at APS to stepping into a VP role—along with the lessons she learned along the way that continue to shape how she leads today. We talk about the influence of family legacy, earning trust in the field, making decisions under pressure, and what it really takes to grow as a leader without losing connection to the crews doing the work.We also dive into what it's like to lead in a traditionally male-dominated industry, how respect is built over time, the role mentorship plays in developing future leaders, and what Mackenzie believes APS is doing well—and where there's still room to grow.This episode is packed with insight for anyone in the trades, utilities, or construction industry—whether you're just starting out, leading crews in the field, or navigating leadership at the executive level.
The AI boom has led to unprecedented demand for data centers in the US. With interconnection queues stretching for years, hyperscalers can no longer wait for traditional grid capacity to catch up. In this episode, Alex speaks with Peter Sawicki - Vice President of Business Development of Emerging Technologies at Mitsubishi Power Americas. They explore how the industry is pivoting to "bring your own power" solutions to bridge the gap.

PREVIEW FOR LATER THE HIDDEN COSTS OF POWERING AI DATA CENTERS Colleague Henry Sokolski, Nonproliferation Policy Education Center. Sokolski questions who will fund the expensive electricity transmission infrastructure required by new AI data centers, noting transmission constitutes two-thirds of consumer costs. He suggests the most viable solution may involve tech companies building their own on-site power generation to operate off the grid, avoiding public subsidies.FEBUARY 1955

In our latest episode, Reagan Kramer welcomes back Pastor Doug Van Dorn as they explore the complexities of Bible translations as it relates to key supernatural verses, the concept of the divine council, nephilim and the historical changes in interpretation that have shaped modern understanding of scripture. They discuss the significance of the 'sons of God' in biblical texts, the impact of second-century rabbinical changes, and the role of scribes in preserving the integrity of the Bible. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding these elements to grasp the full majesty of Jesus and the richness of the gospel.Doug dives into the significance of the Nephilim and their origins in relation to Genesis 6 and why it matters. HIs insights bring clarity to often misunderstood passages, making this a must-listen for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Bible. This conversation is not just for theologians, but for anyone interested in understanding the nuances of scripture and its historical interpretations. Doug Van Dorn opens the conversation by addressing a common concern among Christians: "How can I trust my Bible if what you're saying is true?" He reassures listeners that while there are textual differences across translations, the Bible remains trustworthy. He cites the book of Isaiah and the Dead Sea Scrolls as examples, noting that the discrepancies are minimal, emphasizing that the Bible's transmission is superior to any other ancient texts.

Ancestral Echoes: The Transmission of Collective Trauma explores how trauma is not only a personal experience but a biological, neurological, and emotional legacy that can be passed through families and communities. Drawing on neuroscience and epigenetics, the episode explains how unprocessed trauma alters stress responses, emotional regulation, and nervous system patterns—often appearing generations later as anxiety, hypervigilance, emotional numbness, or unexplained fear. It also addresses modern forms of secondary trauma, showing how repeated exposure to violent or fear-based media can activate the brain's threat systems, especially in children, and contribute to collective distress even without direct personal harm.The episode emphasizes that while trauma can be inherited, healing can be inherited as well. By practicing nervous system regulation, limiting harmful media exposure, restoring healthy rhythms of life, and modeling emotional stability, individuals can protect themselves and their children from carrying forward unnecessary psychological burdens. The central message is one of responsibility and hope: each person has the power to interrupt cycles of inherited trauma and replace them with legacies of resilience, peace, and grounded strength that benefit future generations.Dr. Fred Clary, founder of Functional Analysis Chiropractic Technique and lifting/life coach/ gym-chalk covered philosopher talks about The Transmission of Collective Trauma.

This episode I introduce a new podcast format I'm doing with segments exploring creativity, self-expression, and inner exploration. We move through reflections on curating the energy and content we consume, a segment highlighting inspiring creators, and a focused Q&A that opens into a deeper conversation.At the center is a listener question about starseed and lightworker identity, and the doubt that can arise when we still feel deeply human. We explore why inner exploration and self-compassion matter more than labels, and how knowing yourself within supports true multidimensional remembrance.The episode closes with a Whale Mothers transmission recorded on Santa Cruz Island, offering space to integrate, soften, and receive.

In this episode, we explore the reality behind infrastructure delivery, from the 47 recommendations of the UK Prime Minister's nuclear regulatory task force to the exploding demand for data centers. In this episode, Mustafa Latif-Aramesh (Partner and Parliamentary Agent at TLT ) joins Ed to examine how overlapping regulation and institutional duplication push developers toward compliance theatre rather than meaningful environmental protection, epitomised by Hinkley Point C's infamous £700 million “fish disco.” The conversation explores what it would take to move the UK from a process-obsessed planning regime to one that rewards outcomes, accelerates delivery, and underpins the next wave of digital and energy infrastructure.Key topics covered:Why the UK's infrastructure planning system prioritises administrative process over real environmental outcomes.How spending £700 million to protect a fraction of a salmon population reveals a breakdown in regulatory proportionality.Whether a single Nuclear Regulatory Commission could cut duplicative red tape and unlock faster decommissioning and new nuclear build.Is the Planning Inspectorate equipped to handle 500 proposed data centres alongside the wider energy transition?Can co-locating Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) with data centres address the sector's “five nines” reliability challenge?About our guestMustafa Latif-Aramesh is a Partner at the law firm TLT, where he specialises in infrastructure planning across the entire energy spectrum from transmission lines and battery storage to wind, solar, and nuclear. He recently served on the Prime Minister's Nuclear Regulatory Task Force, a specialist group established to diagnose why building nuclear capacity in Britain takes so long and to identify solutions for expediting deliveryWorking alongside industry leaders and economists, Mustafa helped author a report containing 47 recommendations designed to eliminate regulatory duplication and shift the system's focus from administrative process to tangible outcomes. Beyond nuclear, he advises on the planning challenges facing the UK's rapidly expanding data center pipeline, advocating for a system that balances environmental standards with the need for critical infrastructure.

Please join us for this transmission which cleanses the doors of our perception and allow us to accelerate our evolutionary direction and path to being one with the Divine. The blocks to the Divine is mainly cause by not taking full responsibility for all that we are experiencing, perceiving, and judging. When we reclaim these capacities we inherently begin to change the direction and trajectory of our lives. When we acknowledge that everything that we are experiencing is coming from our judgements and perceptions, we can then cleanse and release those judgements and allow Divinity to flow through.In this transmission, we ask the Divine, Our Guides and Healing Team In the Inner World, the Arcturians, and Our Higher Self; to cleanse the doors of perception and our conscious decision to see experiences as outside of our minds. We ask in this transmission to take 100% responsibility for all that we are experiencing. By doing this we rejoice in reclaiming our power and capacity to change and influence our world. Responsibility does not mean blame for our perceptions and experiences but a whole hearted acceptance of all that is coming into our lives.

From pharmaceuticals that hook you for life to hyper-palatable foods and addictive apps, Monty reveals how “customer lifetime value” is just code for human farming, where independence is eroded for perpetual profit. Monty dives deep into real-world examples: Purdue Pharma's deliberate strategies to create dependence with OxyContin, as uncovered in internal documents ; Eli Lilly's knowledge of Prozac's permanent neurochemical changes and severe discontinuation syndrome since 1984 ; and the infamous 2018 Goldman Sachs report questioning if “curing patients” is a sustainable business model, favoring chronic treatments instead. He also uncovers the DSM-5's expansion of mental disorders in 2010, influenced by pharmaceutical ties ; AstraZeneca's proton pump inhibitors creating “annuity patients” through long-term use ; and Meta's (Facebook's) 2021 leaked memo admitting Instagram worsens body image issues for 32% of teen girls to keep users hooked. Beyond drugs, Monty explores food engineering at Frito-Lay, where flavors are lab-designed to mimic cocaine-like dopamine hits ; Meta's 2017 internal tactics using variable rewards to ensure users return compulsively ; and the shift to subscription models in software and finance that make opting out impossible.This episode challenges listeners to audit their dependencies—medications, apps, subscriptions—and reclaim autonomy. End with a call to action: Research your “needs,” break the hooks, and become unfarmable. Tune in for tomorrow's unmasking of automated compliance.https://www.cnbc.com/2018/04/11/goldman-asks-is-curing-patients-a-sustainable-business-model.htmlhttps://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2018/04/curing-disease-not-a-sustainable-business-model-goldman-sachs-analysts-say/https://www.statnews.com/2019/12/03/oxycontin-history-told-through-purdue-pharma-documents/https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2622774/https://www.wisnerbaum.com/advocacy_campaigns/ssri-documents/https://www.scribd.com/document/413333146/Eli-Lilly-Prozac-Documents-What-Do-They-Revealhttps://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2018/04/curing-disease-not-a-sustainable-business-model-goldman-sachs-analysts-say/https://www.aaup.org/academe/issues/2010-issues-4/diagnosing-conflict-interest-disorderhttps://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3302834/https://www.bradleygrombacher.com/nexium-proton-pump-inhibitor-lawsuit-claims-severe-patient-injurieshttps://www.astrazeneca.com/content/astraz/media-centre/press-releases/2023/astrazeneca-settles-nexium-and-prilosec-product-liability-litigations.htmlhttps://www.theguardian.com/technology/2021/sep/14/facebook-aware-instagram-harmful-effect-teenage-girls-leak-revealshttps://topclassactions.com/lawsuit-settlements/lawsuit-news/frito-lay-sued-over-no-artificial-flavors-claim-on-poppables-snacks/https://www.bakeryandsnacks.com/Article/2025/10/07/pepsico-sued-over-mold-made-citric-acid-in-poppables/ One on One Video call W/George https://tidycal.com/georgepmonty/60-minute-meetingSupport the show:https://www.paypal.me/Truelifepodcast?locale.x=en_US

Abby and Patrick welcome psychoanalyst and clinical social worker Brian Ngo-Smith for a conversation about one of the most difficult but powerful concepts in psychoanalytic theory: projective identification. A notion that demands simultaneously thinking about infantile development and adult behaviors, normal defenses and pathological patterns, the idea of projective identification captures an essential dimension of all kinds of interpersonal relationships – but it also throws some of our most basic assumptions about the distinction between self and other into question. In the first of a two-part series, Brian, Abby, and Patrick unpack the concept of projective identification, setting it in historical context, and considering it from a variety of perspectives. They explore topics including classical Freudian versus object relations approaches to development; the works of Melanie Klein and Wilfred Bion; the defense mechanisms in general and ideas of projection and introjection specifically; projective identification in therapy, romantic partnerships, and professional life; and more. In part II, which comes out next Saturday, Brian, Abby, and Patrick put the idea of projective identification to work in considering group behavior, institutional cultures, and politics.Texts cited:Melanie Klein, “Notes on Some Schizoid Mechanisms” Wilfred Bion, Experiences in GroupsTeresa Brennan, The Transmission of Affect Nancy McWilliams, Psychoanalytic Diagnosis: Understanding Personality Structure in the Clinical ProcessJL Mitrani, “'Taking the transference': Some technical implications in three papers by Bion”Anna Freud, The Ego and the Mechanisms of DefenseJerome Blackman, 101 Defenses: How the Mind Shields ItselfMore about Brian at https://ngosmiththerapy.com/ and https://ngosmithconsulting.comOur previous episode with Brian, “Hate, Help, and Housing: Psychoanalysis and Social Work”: https://ordinaryunhappiness.buzzsprout.com/2131830/episodes/14213981-36-hate-help-and-housing-psychoanalysis-and-social-work-feat-brian-ngo-smithHave you noticed that Freud is back?
