Award-winning scientist, Gregg Braden, joins us today for a profound exploration into our innate human potential for divinity, creativity, and love. In our modern world, where we're increasingly losing our personal power to technology and oppressive systems, Gregg Braden provides a powerful reframe into how we are far greater than we've been told. 

He critiques the transhumanism movement (artificial intelligence and technology being incorporated into our bodies) and warns against how these innovations divorce us from our true power. 

He defines what that true power is, sharing the unique qualities of our divinity that make us human and give us access to our creativity.

This empowering conversation will leave you feeling inspired and proud to be human.
