    Integrating our innate wisdom to flourish alongside AI - Jeff Burningham S4E9 (73)

    An insightful, juicy conversation with Jeff Burningham about the infinite wisdom available to us all when we take time to pause and go inward and explore ways to transform the knowledge we’ve gained into heartfelt understanding. Jeff’s new book; The Last Book Written by a Human – Becoming Wise in the Age of AI, draws on his own journey from the boardroom, classroom political arena and pulpit to explain the difference between intelligence and wisdom – how a different way of being can help us shift from fearing what AI may take away from us, to working with AI to flourish, freeing us up to tap into our imagination, and live more creatively inspired lives.   If you want to discover more about my work visit my website on https://philippaross.com/ Podcast page on my website: https://philippaross.com/podcast/ Join and comment on the Waste Not Want Not facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Waste-Not-Want-Not-108328284940165 Feel free to email me on: info@philippaross.com if you have a guest or subject you’d like me to consider.   Jeff Burningham’s website:  https://www.jeffburningham.com/ Jeff’s favourite book: The Creative Act – A way of being - Rick Rubin Jeff’s favourite quote: “Imagination is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited to all we now know and understand, while imagination embraces the entire world, and all there ever will be to know and understand.”  Einstein

    The Path to Hell and Back - Michael Finlay - S4E8 (72)

    In this special World Suicide Prevention Day episode of Waste Not Want Not, I sit down with my friend Michael Finlay, who courageously shares his lived experience of a dark and oppressive time of overwhelming depression and anxiety - a journey he describes as “to hell and back.” Michael opens his heart to reveal the struggles that can lead someone to consider ending their life, offering much-needed insight into a solution that lives within us all - the often forgotten human art of compassion, attentive listening, and genuine connection. This deeply honest and heartwarming conversation breaks down stigma, sparks hope, and reminds us that every life matters; and that by opening our minds and hearts to these difficult conversations, we can learn to pause, listen, and truly see one another - not rush to fix or control with answers, but create space where people feel seen and heard because every person has value and deserves unconditional love. Michael Finlay can be contacted on his email:  mike.finlay.phoenix@gmail.com If you want to discover more about my work visit my website on https://philippaross.com/ Podcast page on my website: https://philippaross.com/podcast/ Join and comment on the Waste Not Want Not facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Waste-Not-Want-Not-108328284940165 Feel free to email me on: info@philippaross.com if you have a guest or subject you’d like me to consider.
