Here's how it went down:
David Martin introduced me to Sacha Stone, with a nudge for him to blurb my new book. Cut to me receiving an email from Sacha's assistant saying that Sacha dug it, and was working on the blurb, and would I be available for a Zoom chat with Sacha to discuss participating in the Lazarus Collective Symposium.
I spent the morning before our chat in the recording studio, fixing a handful of spazzy glitches peppering the audio files of said new (audio)book - a recording studio without air conditioning. I raced home in time to hop on our chat, only to realize - as Sacha began reading from my (thoroughly outdated) bio - that we were recording a podcast.
Eek!
Vanity and microphone stuff aside, I think it went really well. Sacha asked me some really groovy, multidimensional questions that I'd not yet been asked, while he did not ask if he could take me out on a date, or whisper sweet everythings in my ear. Regardless, our banter was elevated and sparkly, and I trust you will enjoy it.
This is just a promo clip. The full conversation is available at lazarusinitiative.com
In this solo romp, we explore how selective facts, omission, and “expert authority” are used to manipulate public perception, why following the money changes the story, and how philanthropic funding influences what gets amplified, reframed, or erased.
I also dig into the persistent though unexamined belief in hierarchies of human value, and how they have this horrendous habit of dangerously disconnecting us from our humanity. I delve into the stupidity of social justice quotas, the power of cultivating collaborative coherence, and oodles more.
Occupational therapist (and championship pole dancer!), Kristen Gilbert, stopped by the podcast to discuss quantum biology, light hygiene, and the sacred art of slowing down.
I received a pitch today that perfectly illustrates how people unknowingly talk themselves out of alignment—simply through sloppy languaging.
This is the kind of thing we unpack deeply here:
How words shape power dynamics
How projection creates resistance
How precision opens doors
This video is a teaser for a solo episode coming next week where I go much deeper.
Curious what you notice as you watch 👀
Every word matters.

Hi Dani, I seem to remember an interview I think you did on your podcast with a guy who creates/sells private cell phone network services?
I am in the process of establishing my own local network and want to disconnect from the mainstream carriers. Any information or insights you have to share is appreciated. ~ Peace ❤
Words 121 just dropped! We delve into the not-so-secret eugenics background of the NGO fucktards trying to social engineer our world for the super very suckier.
