Episode #16
AI is transforming the world faster than any technology in history — and most of us feel unprepared. We fear losing jobs, losing purpose, and losing control. But the truth is, AI isn’t the biggest threat to our future...
Episode #15
We’re all feeling it — the tension, the fear, the sense that something in America is deeply off. Homelessness everywhere. Families working full-time but still hungry. Addiction in towns that once felt safe. Neighbors...
Episode #14
I recently encountered someone on social media blaming division among Democrats for Trump's Presidential victory. This assumed that Trump is the problem. Trump is not the problem, he's merely a symptom of a larger...
Episode #13
We suck at spotting liars, me included. However, I've learned a couple important ways we can protect ourselves from being deceived by fake friends and fake leaders. Hope this helps!
I reflect on the killing of Charlie Kirk—not to debate his politics, but to examine our reactions. Why do so many of us feel selective empathy, dismissing the pain of others? From my own conflicted response to the...
My family suffered under Stalin and Hitler. As horrific as these experiences were, they helped me to understand this difficult political time in the US. They may even help us to make America great again.
Have you noticed lately how everyone sees themselves as a victim? Are we really all victims? What if we actually had the power to make things better? What would that world look like? And how can we get from here to...
We rarely discuss what makes us American. Most nations are unified by a shared race, ethnicity and sometimes even a faith. That’s not true for America. So what is it that unites us? Or are we doomed to be eternally...
Episode #8
I instantly connected to Trump’s warning about the US becoming a shithole country. Since my father immigrated to the US from Syria, I know a thing or two about shithole countries. Turns out there’s something we all can...
Episode #7
Conspiracy thinking gives us a sense of control in a confusing world. Unfortunately in our careers, this thinking robs us of the autonomy and agency we need to improve our lives.
We all have a basic need for purpose. If we aren’t aware of this, or if we’re afraid, or if we cave to others’ expectations of us, we lose our life’s purpose. The good news is we can reclaim our sense of joy and...
Listening to Friday sermons at my local Mosque, I encountered a glitch in our human programming. Something that was preventing our religious leaders from properly guiding us. Then I realized it wasn’t just Muslims, but...
This issue is really personal for me. Not because I'm Israeli or Palestinian, but because my family suffered like both of these groups. Unfortunately, we're caught in this cycle of violence with no end in sight...
Did you know President George Washington hated the idea of political parties? Did you know he ran for a second term to prevent early party politics from tearing the country apart? Did you know that political parties...
Episode #2
Are you worried about our contentious politics? About where this leads? About the safety and security of your family? I’ve been where you are, and I’d like to share my experiences. Experiences that brought me from angry...
A lot of us fear civil strife or even civil war, and we feel powerless watching our nation unravel. I have to admit that I was part of the problem. I fell into the trap of feeling scared and angry towards “the other.”...
