Ep 52 | Lead to Liberate: Wisdom, AI, and the Future of Leadership 1/30/2026

Today we are #LIVEInTheHIVE with Brian Gorman, maverick leadership coach and author of Leading into the Age of Wisdom: Reimagining the Future of Work.

Brian writes: “When hierarchies falter, networks and circles emerge. When loyalty contracts dissolve, people seek belonging and purpose. When change accelerates, organizations must cultivate adaptability and rhythm. When technology grows powerful, the human role shifts from doing the work of machines to bringing discernment, empathy, and wisdom into the system.”

What are the implications for corporations and organizations? And from a larger perspective, democracy and patriarchy?

As Klaus Schwab writes in The Fourth Industrial Evolution, “The changes are so profound that, from the perspective of human history, there has never been a time of greater promise or greater peril.” Is our dystopian view that AI is replacing human-kind true or false? Which beliefs, habits, or assumptions about leadership may need to be unlearned or reframed for me to become an Age of Wisdom leader?

We touch on:

We are at a tipping point with AI that requires making clear decisive decisions to choose the ultimate path upon which humanity will embark, recognizing that we’re on the verge of the equivalent of the Industrial Revolution.
AI has made human intelligence obsolete, but humans possess WISDOM, Wisdom guides our decisions in how we utilize AI.
Hierarchy assumes wisdom rests in the top tier, when in fact everyone has wisdom or the potential for wisdom.
Brian shares 2 stories of well-known corporations discovering that wisdom from the C-suite is no longer sufficient.
Democracy itself (and all patriarchal systems) requires the overlay of these same skill sets as leaders moving into The Age of Wisdom.
Decentralizing decision making from the top doesn’t slow systems down.
What are wisdom circles? How do we respond to crisis? And what will be the impact of our decisions over the next 7 generations?
Work is not done through time, it’s done through energy. How do we build physical, mental, emotional and spiritual energy?
Circle, rather than linear, philosophy- Interconnectedness.
All this and so much more.

Poets & Prophets—A Formational Journey for Change Leaders is for leaders who yearn for this next level of consciousness, who are ready to risk letting go in order to step into a deeper way of being, belonging, and becoming.

Is this Journey for You?

You may be called to this journey if several of the following are true:

You can no longer lead from performance alone—something deeper is demanding your attention.
The strategies that once worked now feel hollow, forced, or misaligned.
You sense that what is being asked of you cannot be accomplished through passion, skill, and gifts alone—it requires connecting soul with Source.
You feel both fear and relief at the idea of letting go of your former ways of being.
Your usual sources of certainty—role, reputation, expertise—no longer support your sense of call.
You experience a persistent inner summons toward crossing the divides that separate us.
You recognize that insight alone is no longer enough—you are being invited into a new level of consciousness.

This is an iterative journey that invites deeper alignment, widening circles of impact, and a return to leadership as a creative, relational, and generative act.

Ep 44 | Finding Joy in Solos, Songs, and Stories with Sean Harkness and Liz Piccoli 10/2/25

Today we are #LIVEintheHIVE with two special guests, multi-award-winning guitarist and singer/songwriter, Sean Harkness - and Liz Picolli, SDC director/choreographer, and founder/artistic director of Queen of Rogues Arts Space in Woodstock, NY.
Sean is returning to The Plum at Traver Hollow House (www.ThePlumTH2.com) on Saturday October 18th with his SOLO show, Just Me: Solos, Songs, and Stories. He will also be performing at Queen of Rogues Arts Space in Woodstock on Friday, October 17th.

Today’s episode is of course, about plugging these upcoming shows, but more importantly, it’s a conversation about the power of ART – theatre, music, visual art, storytelling– to uplift and inspire – not only an audience, but also the performers themselves – in these challenging times.

It’s a conversation about building new performance and gathering spaces, creating and sharing safe, supportive and inclusive communities, and about RESISTANCE to authoritarianism through art, music, truth-telling, and storytelling.

We touch on…

As you know, I always ask my guests, “What identity do you lead with”? And Sean and Liz have unexpected and wonderful answers to kick off this delicious and rich conversation.
What inspired Liz to create and run Queen of Rogues Art Space.
The importance of building community and being a part of many communities.
Sean is most known for being a collaborator with other musicians and singers. What inspired him to create a solo show? And why now? Sean shares his goals, and the obstacles he overcame in sharing his own voice in a solo show.
How creating/performing/artistry is keeping us sane and connected to joy in these challenging times.
All this and SO MUCH MORE.

¿Conoces el impacto de la falta de padre? La experiencia personal ha revelado la devastación potencial que acecha a cada momento en una vida sin padre. De hecho, estadísticamente, los efectos tienen la probabilidad de retrasar o eliminar literalmente las buenas costumbres de vida, la destrucción de una cultura alentadora y la eliminación de padres con potencial de buen comportamiento de la sociedad.

Prayer walking is simply walking through your community while praying for people, and their needs. I think of it as activating one’s faith by putting “boots on the ground” to intercede for those around you claiming your neighborhood for Christ’s love and salvation. Whether alone, or with others, it's a way to invite God's presence into every heart in every home in your area.

Through prayer, we partner with Jesus to bring hope and salvation to those around us. Prayer is powerful. Lives are transformed when believers pray. Imagine groups of prayer warriors walking the streets of villages and cities worldwide, lifting up their neighbors in Jesus’ love.

We are excited and blessed to be providing resources and training to accomplish this Holy mission. If you would like resources or guidance to start a prayer walk, you can contact me at Jon@ekb.world or visit www.ekb.world

We'd love to partner with you, pray with you, and even join you in your community prayer walks. If you feel led to support our ministry, your prayers and encouragement are invaluable. For those able to give financially, your contributions will help us equip churches worldwide to spread the gospel through prayer walking and other important ministries.

Ep 42 | Open Spaces and Male Myths with Betsy Gaines Quammen and Tasha Adams 7/31/25

We are #LIVEintheHIVE with Betsy Gaines Quammen, historian and award-winning author of American Zion + True West – and Tasha Adams, the ex-wife of Oath Keeper’s founder, Stewart Rhodes.

Betsy has previously been a guest on #TheEdgeofEverydayPodcast in June of 2022 and in that episode, we talked about both of her powerful and increasingly relevant books and the significant need to have difficult conversations across polarizing political views and differing cultural perspectives. You can find that episode at TalkRadio.NYC and on my YouTube channel, Sandra Bargman on The Edge of Everyday.

Betsy brings wisdom + engaging storytelling to her important work, and in these increasingly turbulent times under a clearly authoritarian administration, I knew I needed to have her on the show again. When I reached out, Betsy suggested that I also ask her good friend, Tasha Adams, to join us. Tasha’s ex-husband, Stewart Rhodes, the founder of the right-wing militia, The Oath Keepers, had just been released from jail, having had his sentence of 18 years in prison for seditious conspiracy for his role in the Jan 6th insurrection commuted.

Tasha’s story is deeply moving, a life lived under the thumb of an abusive, manipulative man, and finding the courage to plan an escape for herself and her 6 children. I could only imagine how she must be feeling upon hearing the news of his release.

This episode is NOT about the Oath Keepers, or Tasha’s role in it. There are podcasts and interviews and two documentaries in which to explore that information.

This episode explores the relationship between open spaces and toxic masculinity.

“What I knew then and feel more deeply now is that open lands inspire open minds. This is the open space of democracy”.

- Terry Tempest Williams in NYT

With our anti-science, anti-intelligence, chaos and cruelty driven administration, it’s hard not to feel completely hopeless about the climate emergency.

Today we are #LIVEintheHIVE with Harriet Shugarman, a US based university professor, multi-award-winning author, writer, economist and climate policy advisor with many years of experience working on our climate emergency. www.ClimateMama.com

We are still reeling from the catastrophic floods in Texas, with a death toll presently at 111 and another 172 people found missing. The climate crisis played a significant role in this flooding, and thanks to this chaotic and incompetent administration, staffing shortages at the National Weather Service contributed to the severity of the flooding. Climate disaster meets climate denial.

According to research, 77% of the global population want their government to do whatever it takes to limit the effects of climate change.

Where are we in our efforts to meet the climate crisis? How can we prepare for the growing climate instability? And most importantly, how do we hold onto hope?

As Climate Mama Harriet Shugarman says, “Tell the truth, actions speak louder than words, and don't be afraid."

Today we are #LIVEintheHIVE with Karen Hinton, author of the bestselling book, Penis Politics: A Memoir of Women, Men, and Power, a compelling coming-of-age memoir, set both in small-town Mississippi and big-city New York, with a long layover in the nation's capital. The Kirkus review had this to say: “A timely, engaging political account about the consequences of saying nothing - and speaking up. Hinton’s prose is sharp and incisive. She is adept at setting a scene and bringing people to life on the page.” And one of those people was Andrew Cuomo, whom she has known for over 20 years and for whom she has worked for 5 years. Andrew Cuomo resigned as Governor of New York on August 24, 2021, amidst an overlapping cluster of ethics scandals, including accusations of sexual harassment and misconduct from 11 women.And now Cuomo is running to become the next Mayor of New York City. This episode was recorded on the eve of the Mayoral primary, and, at that time, Cuomo was leading in first choice ballot polling, however, Zohran Mamdani, the virtual unknown, Democratic Socialist jumped to the lead in ranking polls. In a shocking victory, Cuomo conceded to Mamdani in the NYC Democratic Primary. Will Cuomo run as an Independent in November? We'll see. How was someone who resigned in scandal + shame able to lead in the polls? Why do we continue to choose misogynistic, scandal ridden men to be our political leaders? What has become of the #MeToo movement? With all our patriarchal systems in place, with an adjudicated rapist in the highest office in the US, is it possible to uncouple sex and sexual abuse from power and politics? Karen Hinton is uniquely qualified to explore these questions and to weigh in on why Andrew Cuomo is unfit to become the Mayor of NYC. Mississippi native Karen Hinton is a nationally recognized media professional in Washington, DC and New York. Best known for her role as press secretary to both former Housing Secretary - Andrew Cuomo and former New York City Mayor - Bill de Blasio, Hinton played a powerful role in the clash between Cuomo, now the former Governor of New York, and former Mayor de Blasio. The New York Times called the clash “one of America’s ugliest political feuds.” www.KarenHinton.com | @jkarenhinton www.SandraBargman.com | www.MaximizeU.life coach@maximizeu.life

Ep 39 | It Can't Happen Here: Artists Lead the Resistance with Joanna Rush 6/13/25

Today we are #LiveintheHive with our special guest, actor, activist and playwright, Joanna Rush. Joanna and I share similar experiences in our career trajectories. Our first chapter was spent performing, in our 2nd chapter we added becoming a seminary trained and ordained Interfaith Minister, and in our 3rd act, we’ve layered on the roles of activist and political junkie, loudly sharing our own voice in our artistic expression.

I had Joanna on #TheEdgeofEverydayPodcast in April of 2024 for Episode 8: The Edge of Artistry, Aegism, and Activism, during which we talked about her most recent one woman show, No Malarkey!, directed by the late great Lynn Taylor-Corbett.

We recently decided to hold a series of conversations around the topic of how ARTISTS serve in challenging times. What is the role of the ARTIST and the need for the arts in the rise of authoritarianism?

Artists are facing censorship, funding cuts, and fear under DJTs second term - as political repression reshapes the cultural landscape. How are artists of all ages and genders showing up to move the needle forward and address the issues of today?

This is the foundational first of what we hope will be many conversations exploring the many tendrils of resistance and how, in these times of revolution, artists can serve in supporting the emerging narrative about culture, populism, social resentment and economic scarcity.

Today is May 15th and we just celebrated Mother’s Day here in the US – and this special two-part series is dedicated to Mothers.

Today we are #LIVEintheHive with my special guests, 3 women I adore, to talk about and to HONOR the wonderful complexities and paradoxes of MOTHERHOOD, the complicated mother-daughter relationship, care-giving a parent, the joy of having children, the choice not to have children - and the mentoring and nurturing of young people.

So many stories told, so many surprises, so much vulnerability, and so much laughter. You’ll just have to listen, because I have no notes.

Some herstory:

While Mother's Day is now a global event, here in the US it originated from the efforts of Anna Jarvis, who, after her mother's death in 1905, campaigned to establish a national holiday honoring mothers. Inspired by her mother's activism and efforts to teach women about childcare, Anna Jarvis envisioned a day to recognize the sacrifices mothers made for their children.

Ann Reeves Jarvis, Anna's mother, was a social activist known for her work in promoting solidarity and health education among women, especially in her hometown of Grafton, West Virginia.

Following her mother's death, Anna Jarvis dedicated her life to creating a holiday that would honor mothers' contributions.

In chapter 3, Ann returned to performing and immersed herself in the cabaret world where she has won multiple awards, including a 2025 Bistro for her album, Romantic Notions, and was also chosen as a top 5 albums of 2024 by The Broadway Radio Show.

What will it take to know the Girl God, the sacred feminine?
Today we are #LiveintheHive with Trista Hendren, author, speaker, visionary founder of Girl God Books and ONE POWERFUL voice, mother, and leader in the dismantling of the patriarchal mindset and the remembrance and return to the wisdom and mystery of the Divine feminine, and to the ancient truth of kinship, reciprocity, and inter-being.
I was very moved by our passionate conversation. With so little to be sure of in these challenging times, I took great comfort in the probing vulnerability that was shared.
We touched on…

Trista walks between many worlds. She was raised in a conservative Christian home and later wanted to become a pastor, only to realize there was no genuine leadership role for her in this denomination. She shares her story of her discovery of feminism, her Interfaith curiosity and conversion to Islam, and how living in Lebanon was life changing.
The power of female sacred art and iconography, and the importance of the curated art she’s used on book covers for Girl God Books.
She shares the story of how her daughter inspired her to write The Girl God, the subsequent trilogy, and the evolution to starting Girl God books.
What presses most on Trista is the time we have left! Women must regain their inner knowing – and we must improve our education of young women. Leaders must be held accountable.
The enormous need for self-care in these challenging times.
Her leading edge is her focus on the Palestinian genocide.
The need for and power of ceremony and ritual and the incredible creation of a 2-ton concrete sculpture of The Goddess of Willendorf by her beloved husband on her property in Norway.

Ep 35 | Being in LIMINAL SPACE with Susan Lambert 4/15/25

Happy Birthday to Me!

I have a fun ritual that I do every year on my birthday – I try something new – something really physical – and something I’ve never done before. For example, one year I ziplined, I did hot yoga one year – one year I went pole dancing, one year I attended a sweat lodge – this year, I’m going rock climbing!

I love this ritual – and my loyal listeners know how I adore ritual – because it reminds me to keep thinking outside of the box and to let go of what may be MY “tried and true”. It’s an act that symbolizes for me starting this next year of my life with boldness and an embrace of change.

And that is what being on the edge of everyday is all about…

Today we are #LIVEintheHIVE with our special guest, actor, singer, podcast host, psychotherapist, multi- hyphenate Extraordinaire and master storyteller, Susan Lambert.

Susan and I share a deep love of the exploration of liminal space.

I love being in a liminal space. It’s why I adore ritual. Ritual is an invitation into a liminal space for transformation. And I know it’s why I boldly embrace change – or – at least most of the time. It’s why I call myself an Edgewalker.

Today’s episode was recorded in January of 2023 and it is a wonderful
conversation I had with one of my most favorite people, author and spiritual
teacher, Gloria Karpinski.

I met Gloria at the end of my 1st year of seminary when she came to speak at
the Ordination Ceremony for The New Seminary at St. John the Divine. She
became a trusted mentor and friend – and I went on to produce + narrate the
audio version of her book, Where Two Worlds Touch. (A short clip from the
narration has been inserted in one of the original commercial breaks)
It was such a JOY to revisit the conversation! I am so deeply moved by Glorias
depth of wisdom, her connection to spirit, and her practical, down-to-earth and
gentle teaching style. We reminisced, laughed, told stories, and Gloria weaves
her very powerful messages from spirit throughout our conversation. Her
words are more prescient than ever.
