  • The Fight to Stay Human - Reality, A.I, smartphones and reclaiming your inner authority.

    The Fight to Stay Human - Reality, A.I, smartphones and reclaiming your inner authority.
    Mar 19 2026

    The world changed after Covid.

    Trust fractured, reality has become one crisis after another and in a short space of time, A.I. is everywhere.

    In this episode of The Balanced Brain Podcast, we explore the challenge of staying human in an AI-driven world—from filter bubbles and smartphone addiction to the deeper question of who and what is creating our reality.

    We also look at the hope and trends emerging through a subculture of young people seeking real-world experiences again and a broader trend of renewed interest in the topic of nature and spirituality.

    The episode ends with the message of reconnecting with the most powerful guidance system we have – our own inner authority and wisdom.
