The world is abuzz with excitement and worry about Artifical IntelligenceI and the human future. Perhaps the best exploration I’ve heard of AI comes not from a technological or social point of view, but from a mythological one.
What is the deeper meaning of humans creating something that might eclipse them in the future? Why are we driven to do this? More pointedly, after the Sorcerer’s Apprentice summons forth magical forces he can’t control, what happens when there’s no master Sorcerer to come fix the mess he’s created?
One of my favorite podcasts is The Emerald by Joshua Schrei, which explores contemporary issues from a mythological lens.
The episode So You Want to Be a Sorcerer in the Age of Mythic Powers on AI was so engrossing I listened to it five times. So, it only seemed natural to have a conversation with him when I was invited to participate in the AI & Your Life summit last year.

This talk was recorded as part of AI & Your Life: The Essential Summit 2023. For more information, visit www.WisdomForLife.life.
Below is the link to the original Emerald episode that inspired me to connect with Joshua. I think you will find it deeply thought-provoking.

Spencer Sherman (MBA, CFP®) integrates the power of mindfulness and emotional intelligence with business and finance. As the founder and former CEO of Abacus, a values-driven financial consulting firm managing over $3 billion in assets, Spencer has transformed the lives of many, helping them forge stronger relationships with themselves and others to become more effective leaders and achieve financial success on their own terms.
After earning an MBA from Wharton, Spencer began a 35-year meditation practice – discovering along the way that the secret to professional success in finance, aside from proficiency with “the numbers,” is cultivating emotional intelligence and a resilient, flexible mind.

Why this? We over focus on what’s problematic, wrong or broken and that can easily lead to being caught in a doom spiral.
Just like having a balanced food diet is helpful, We need to a balanced energy diet. And we do thatmaking a concerted and conscious effort to see what’s good, strong and helpful. For me, who lived a long time with chronic illness, where it was all to0 easy to get caught up in doom scenarios, so building this particular muscle was essential. Its something you can do everyday and most people find it accessible and helpful.

Today’s guest, Dr. Elizabeth Stanley, has done more than her fair share to help heal trauma in the world including her own. She’s the creator of mindfulness based the mind fitness training program (MFIT). She’s also professor of security studies at Georgetown University, US Army Veteran, and author of Widen the Window: Training Your Brain and Body to Thrive During Stress and Recover from Trauma.
We discuss what trauma is, how it distorts people’s lives and how to heal it. We have some interesting explorations about how organizations exploit traumatized people, why so many people in positions of authority are themselves traumatized and the relationship between trauma experiences and overachievement. We had a wide-ranging, engaging conversation that I think you will find very interesting.

Marcela Widrig has an expansive view of the body. She sees the body as a field of information that can be accessed, dialogued with and related to in ways that that profoundly changes how you relate to your world.
The changes are experienced both inside yourself but also with the people in your life. I’ve sent dozens and dozens of my students, friends and family to her and watched how each one steps into a sense of their promise and possibility as a human being.
Not only can traumas be decisively healed, but there is a vast and expansive world of growth beyond it.

In this episode we explore what is beauty? Why do we need the beautiful? According to Sandra B. Lubarsky we have lost something valuable: our relationship to the beautiful. Sandra asks us to look deeper at beauty. Beauty is fundamental to helping us solve our way through many crises we find outselves in. For her, what we find beautiful are patterns of relationship that are generated by life and that sustains and affirms life. Beauty is not a thing as much as a kind of relationship.
