Artificial Intelligence and How to Live in the Real World

This episode of From the Heart is all about AI and how it is infiltrating every corner of our lives. After a few upsetting encounters with AI, Rachel was left wondering: do the bad parts of the internet outweigh the good? Where are we headed as a society? And is it even our fault if there’s no way to stop it?  It can be so hard to balance the desire to live without the internet while our lives have become so intertwined with it. But maybe there is something we can do. We can create spaces for real world experiences. We can spend more time in nature. (And we can throw our phones in the lake if we really want to). Rachel shares more about how she walks that difficult line through living life on her farm. It’s an episode that will leave you craving more of the things that actually matter.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

Can we build confidence in our children? Or is confidence something they have to figure out for themselves? This episode brings us another segment of Ask Rachel, where Rachel answers questions from listeners that have called in. She shares her future vision and dreams for the store at Ala Farms and how to deal with roosters so they don’t ruin your life. Then she answers a really beautiful question on how to build confidence in our children- especially if they are very sensitive. The answer may not be in lifting them up and talking about how perfect they are, but instead being a safe place for them to lean into their insecurities and find their own footing. It’s a fun and open episode that will lift you up and inspire you to love hard and reach for your dreams.

In today’s episode of From the Heart, Rachel shares her process of getting things done and how she stays productive in her daily life. It looks a lot like this: manifesting with the energy of a thousand suns, side questing on the way to another side quest, and then falling apart on the couch with a tub of ice cream once all is said and done.  We all have different ways that we generate and create. But it all comes down to how we can rest and recover. Do you know what true rest looks like? Are you depleting yourself more than you’re filling yourself up? This is a fun episode of story-telling (and even some duck poop) that will inspire you to work hard, rest hard, and keep building the life that reflects you.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

In today’s episode, Rachel shares many opposing thoughts that we are all thinking right now: the world is absurd, crazy and scary - but the world is also full of so many beautiful things. Everywhere we look there is war, genocide, starvation, and terrifying men in positions of power. But there are also children laughing, flowers blooming, and ducks in Rachel’s house! How can these polarities exist at once? And even more so, how can we find happiness and joy amidst the chaos and uncertainty? Whatever you are doing to take care of yourself right now is beautiful. Whether that looks like small self-care practices or prepping a bunker for the apocalypse (Rachel shares a bit more of her journey here, too!), it all counts. At the end of the day, the only one coming to save you is you. Tune in for an episode that will empower you to remember that you are the one you have been waiting for.

In today’s episode, Rachel answers a very specific question: does she hate men? The answer to this is… no, not all men. But the truth is, the male population as a whole is not giving women a lot to feel confident in right now. From charlatans in the healing space preying on the vulnerable, to the lack of prosecutions resulting from the Epstein files, and the shocking rape academy online, we live in a misogynistic system that is meant to protect men and allow women to be harmed and abused. But what can we actually do about it? This episode is a call for all of us - especially the “good men” out there - to step up and make a change. Have the hard conversations with your friends, say something when you see something, and don’t lay down and accept things as they are. We must make a change for our wives, our sisters, and our daughters - and it starts with doing the work in mundane moments of our own lives.
