"Two of my conversations about leadership with former hewlet Packard CEO Carly fiorina and a look back at the day when the mayor took on art and art one Arnold Lehman former director of the Brooklyn museum talks about his book detailing the bitter fight between the museum and former mayor Rudy Giuliani over the Madonna art exhibit But first who is the greatest of all time when it comes to heavyweights Muhammad Ali is considered the greatest Acclaimed filmmaker Ken burns and his team produced a comprehensive look at the man the athlete and the public figure It's called simply Muhammad Ali I asked Ken why he chose Ali as his subject This is a film that is co directed by my daughter Sarah my oldest daughter Sarah and her husband David McMahon we've been collaborating on several films most notably the Central Park 5 and Jackie Robinson And so I think we're just always on the lookout for a good story in American history and obviously he was going to be a good story We had no idea just how compelling this was going to be how amazing his story is Look he is the greatest athlete of the 20th century across all platforms And he may be the greatest of all times I mean Brady is the greatest quarterback in the NFL but that's it This is a person who when he died he died the most beloved person on his planet And what we wanted to do amidst lots of other really good documentaries on Muhammad Ali is do soup to nuts Really find out about him Ask the question who was he You know from his birth and boyhood and Jim Crow segregated Louisville Kentucky to his death by Parkinson's not that long ago 2016 5 years ago And who he was in between not just the boxing and we covered 25 of the fights and we get into them as I like to say the collected fights are like the collective works of William Shakespeare I mean you can't make this stuff up There's no rocky film that comes close to the first list and the first Fraser or the third Fraser or the foreman fight I mean they're unbelievable stories in and of themselves And I think we tell them well But we're also interested in his journey of faith and in many other aspects of his life So it's a comprehensive look and four episodes over 8 hours Well so well said because it does definitely cover the boxing not just the first lesson the second lesson with that dispute about whether it was cheating going on or not Which is a great story in itself But also one could forget the public figure that he was and you mentioned his faith for example coming from Jim Crow south but then really adapting becoming a black Muslim following the prophet Elijah Muhammad And what that did to him as a public figure and again very controversial at the time when he came out his backers were very worried he was going to lose a lot of money Yes And in fact there's an amazing interview with the British journalist who says oh you know to his backers how much is he lost Oh he's lost This endorsement and this endorsement and what are you Christians Think about him being a Muslim and he said well I think that people ought to be able to believe what they believe in And then he says but this is a hate group And he said well if it is a hate group he can't be a member because he doesn't have a hateful bone in his body which just tells you how much about love this story is I mean he intersects with all the major things about the role of sports in society the role of black athletes the nature of black masculinity and black identity He's about the civil rights movement which isn't monolithic It's all different sorts of things And he chooses one kind of branch of Islamic cult that doesn't really bear resemblance to Islam And he follows a lot of its tenants that they don't approve of sports but he's nonetheless their star Every decision he makes based on faith is seen because he's a black man in the 1960s As a political decision as he's giving the middle finger when he refuses induction into the draft which makes him a divisive figure when in fact it's one of courage So at the end of the day we've made a story of all of these things that he's intersecting with war and politics and race and civil rights and sex and all of this sort of thing All of the things we're dealing with right now which makes Muhammad Ali extremely contemporary but really this is a story about freedom And it's very difficult for a black person in America to have escaped the specific gravity of the kind of experience that they've had It's about courage and he exhibits courage that very few of us will ever exhibit willing to sacrifice his life willing to sacrifice his career at the height of that career And it's about a four letter word David that you and I can use The FCC permits us to use it but we don't like to talk about it And that's love And the only way you die the most beloved person on your planet is that that has been your overwhelming message And you can see it in his face in some of the early rare footage that we got You can see it in some of the comments that people miss and other films about him that we were able because of the 7 years we took to do it Thank you PBS It's just a remarkable story He's as interesting as any American I've ever come across in my 50 years of digging And can you mention there among the many things that he interacted with one of them was Vietnam something that you were no stranger to You have treated that at some at some length And in watching this I'm reminded that it was 1966 actually when he refused to be inducted And in retrospect you know being anti Vietnam for those of us our generation that was a pretty popular position But in 1966 it was not It was not just white Americans but black Americans are often turned on him You have to understand how much this bragging handsome guy who told you he was handsome He wasn't behaving the way any athlete had ever made before So that strike one Then he wins the championship against liston And he declares he's part of this separatist Nation of Islam called strike two and then when he's inducted into the army he refuses to go Strike three in a.

I'm honored today to be speaking to the field director of southern africa for piecework international. Additionally he serves as lead facilitator for step up equity matters in the workplace. Please welcome greg potter greg. Hello hello oh my gosh so happy to be here. I'm so excited to talk to you because of piece work. And i want you to tell us a little bit about this organization and what you do definitely well. It actually started I ended up at the clinton school public service for graduate school. And i found myself working in south africa For my capstone and then also an international development work project. And then after i finished piecework approached me and said we need someone to really manage and further develop our programs in southern africa. Would you be interested. And i immediately said yes. I had never made twenty s. I never thought. I'd do international work and then when it kinda like snuck up in like bit me in the but I was in love with it. So then i took on some the management role at work and We started out when i was there. We had about two or three projects and then we grew it to more than ten projects all over the country and we ventured into mozambique botswana uganda. So i was very lucky to be there. Yeah i wanna talk to you more about that. But i i was just i was taken aback about your. It's interesting. how opportunities present themselves like that but that wasn't really the road that you thought you were on but then all of a sudden you're on this road. What what road were you on or are you. Are you kinda like me where you just keep your head down work hard be kind and opportunities come in. It's it's so like that. I grew up in the middle of wisconsin One day i realized something wasn't right i went to school in vegas then came out of the closets ended up in l. A. acting then ended up at upper management or starbucks realized. They really loved working in communities and not necessarily for the corporate. You know corporate machine and then the travel the country for your and ended up in little rock arkansas. So yeah it's always very. I know i just trust that. There is a plan. And there's something there for me as long as i keep my head down and working hard and also you know. Make sure that. I'm passionate and spreading love and seeing people for who they are. Now that's step b. kind requirement for good opportunities to show themselves. It's just sit so where we have so much in common. Because you know. I ended up doing sprint. Corporate auditing and that wasn't for me and then you know because of that work with telecommunications. I ended up working at a setting up. The phone systems and boutique boozy hotels. Then obama's like serve your country. And i'm like i already was in the navy. I'm not gonna do that shit again. So he brought me into the department of veterans affairs. And they're like oh you have call center experience and they just threw me in charge of the call center never planned to be in two telecommunications at all You know because. I was just working at a kiosk slinging cell phones. But then there's that and then and then comedy and the music and then accidentally becoming a comedian and then you know working for the government and then podcasting happened and i was just like all right. I mean if this is what we're doing. I love it and It fulfils the mission and vision of kind of where i wanted to be in. That sounds like exactly what is happening with. Piece work so go a little bit more in depth. About what piecework does. What are some of the things that you're doing well. We we focus really on the sustainability piece of helping out community partners but making sure that they're leading we're not gonna steer were definitely gonna let them serve or going to serve in. We're going to let them steer. Is they know what's best for them. And we work with mostly american universities. But we've also worked with corporations in belize city. We did a project with. Cwc for seven years project police. There was working on financial literacy with high schoolers employee. Nba city and still because that project you can see the medium. The medium amount in checking accounts are higher. There's more like small business owners. We you could see that metric really move because of the tenacity and the attention to the sustainability piece of it so and peace. What's been going for over thirty years. We work in twenty plus countries and yet. It's really the models really focused where the convener were not that dictator. Who right so you you sort of a like almost consulting like here's how we can help. What we think is so important about what you're doing and do it. Yeah i mean that's just sort of kind of the that should be the model for for all of that kind of work. I think i totally agreed. And then we also have the ability to pull him. You know whether it's the you know nursing students from an american university and bacon also. Have you know bring in financial support they can bring in you know in beliefs. We work on diabetes project in early beliefs. And so they're bringing. All these glucose monitors you know that are not available. So we're able to really bridge those while still letting the community partner lead the lead. What's needed now. That's awesome and of course for you. How do you change is hard for a lot of people. And i'm wondering how piecework kind of cells change like how do you know what i mean or or is there such a great need for certain things that people like. The people that you work with are are really super excited motivated already. Well it's it's the baby steps right like that. We can't you know we can't just go blue and the model of piece work that i love so much that we're looking. Were observing a different culture. Were observing a different piece. But while were there. I am facilitating workshops with them that makes the participants allows them room create space really for them to look inside and then also how do they bring that back home. And how do they create that change at home so it's kind of a a byproduct of of the change in in you know international country but then really it ultimately comes back home like in those conversations are the biggest piece of that change Yeah definitely i'm gonna take a quick left. Turn here because i want to talk about your latest project but before i get into that i want to ask you about being a lead facilitator for something called. Step up equity matters in the workplace. That's a very very important issue. And i was wondering if you could tell us what you're doing there because it seems to fit into this model it definitely. It definitely does When i when. I got hired with piece work and i realized it was not gonna move back to los angeles after being in little rock. I'm came back to wisconsin to be closer to family. We know how that gets as we get older and so step up asked me to join join their team and what they do is look at in business workplaces and really look at you know. What's the moral case. What's the you know. How do we create more business be more inclusive and also make sure that we are reaching out to the best possible candidates for these jobs without.

"On the federal level. It's been talked about Hr three is a bill that got through the house last year. And it's got a slower passage this year because now there's actually the possibility passing something so they've talked about putting into the infrastructure bill to help pay for it because you get huge savings obviously if you start negotiating with drug companies instead of paying whatever they want But a big pharma has big wallets and so There are a lot of legislators of both parties. That are incentivized to not take away big pharmacy prophet. So that is an ongoing fight. And it's unclear yet what the outcome is gonna be. Yeah and if the federal government is paying for or subsidizing drug prices and negotiating drug prices that to me sounds like something that's budgetary and can be included in budget. Reconciliation or at least the parliamentarian would have to decide. Because it's kind of a new thing. But i don't know it's got budget written all over it to me yes. I believe that this can be an reconciliation. It's just a question of whether there's the will to make it be. Yes because we know there are a lot of dark money. Lobbyists lobbying some democrats so we have fun at which democrats are gonna stand up and say i'm not gonna take that money and i'm gonna vote for this and we can tell by the ones who are quiet. What's probably motivating them at all. The high cost of prescription drugs is something. That's what the most important issues for most americans Whatever their political beliefs so politicians keep promising to do something about it. This is their chance. And we'll see if they deliver my main concern. Of course is joe manchin. Whose daughter was responsible for the six hundred thousand percent hikes in the cost of the epi pen for example and so. I'm a little worried about how he might react to these kind of pharmaceutical issues. And it isn't just mansion if you look at a connecticut senators That are very tied into corporate interests. a public option was floated in connecticut This year but all the insurance companies Got together and made some threats and then the public option disappeared so it.

"Please welcome laura packard to the beans. Laura welcome thank you for having me. I am so excited to talk to you today. Because it was just recently third week of june or so second week of june when the supreme court had decided that in california v texas for the affordable care. Act this decision. We've all been waiting on that that they didn't have standing to sue basically because the mandate was brought down to zero dollar penalty and so they didn't have any harm or injury to speak of and so they decided seven two two which is weird because it should be unanimous that they didn't have standing to sue and so therefore we have upheld once again in the supreme court the affordable care act. It can't it doesn't so far hasn't lost. And i wanted your top line thoughts on that victory that Victory in the supreme court. Well we are three for three in cases before the supreme court which is good news but the bad news is all they have to do is win once to wreck devastation on millions of americans. you would think that people would learn from a this documented losing streak to be people's healthcare alone. But i don't think they've learned that lesson yet. So this i mean election lies lost sixty five times in the courts and they still. They're still on it so yeah exactly they. They're they're not They are only Choosing till learn the lessons they want to learn as opposed to lessons. They should be learning so this particular case may not come back because the supreme court said they there isn't standing but that does not mean that there is not an army of lawyers somewhere right now figuring out new ways to attack the affordable care act because this is a crusade for republican politicians. Yeah and despite the fact that everybody loves this you know they've been trying to get rid of social security and medicare for years as well and that's failed at every turn and hopefully the aca will stand up in those ways and yeah and if we ever raised the penalty to a dollar or more. They'll come back and say oh. We have an injury. Now we'd like to overturn the mandate and since the mandate is such a integral part to the law. We just should just throw the whole thing away. That was there actual argument this time. But i think what's more amazing. Is that recently before. This decision came out from the supreme court. We reached a record number of people who were covered under the affordable. Care act thirty. One plus million people. And i think that that is going to go up. Now we've extended the enrollment period under the first covert rescue plan by biden right to august fifteenth. Yes that was An executive order to extend it A so Open enrollment the special enrollment period runs until august fifteenth. It was originally may and then when our new. Hhs secretary came in when the first thing he did was extended to august eighteenth Thirty one million people are Enrolled and over a million have signed up in this special enrollment period alone and Those numbers thirty one million. I don't believe that includes the state exchanges so the number is probably higher than that. Okay so i misspoke. It wasn't part of the american rescue plan. It was just an executive order from hhs. Right what the american rescue plan included was More subsidies to make affordable care act plans more affordable than ever but those subsidies are only for two years so part of the biden infrastructure plans. The american families plan makes those Subsidies permanent so that's one of the reasons why we need those infrastructure plants. Yeah and it looks like now. Ernie is already writing up. Budget reconciliation after the pretty I will say surprising almost a trillion dollar republican proposal. I'd never seen republicans want to spend any money on anything but not nearly enough and it looks like they're gonna write it up for like five or six trillion dollars. Now they're like all right. Fine we gotta start high because we're going to have to come down for mansion in cinema so we might as well throw everything in there and see where we can end up with just fifty votes plus calmly that we need madam vice president now. I wanted to talk to you a little bit about something that everyone seems to be thinking. Now that the has been held up again in the supreme court which is time to improve it. Time to expand upon it next logical step in the whole reason that the affordable care act was put into place was as a stepping stone to a public option. So let's talk a little bit about that because we're seeing it in some states. Aren't we Well one thing to note is it just came out a few days ago that they are thinking of In.

Quantum Computing: Superposition or Qubit Too Far?
"So quantum computers leverage the properties of entanglement and superposition to perform computations simulations on optimizations. Much much faster than the classical computers we use today. Whoa whoa whoa will. We've gone straight in with the entanglement and superposition. Lets wind it back a little bit and to me. Get my bearings. Is tony strategy chief. Technologist at hewlett packard. Enterprise to help bring it back to basics. There were two thoughts that led to modern day computing. If you like you've got the name that everyone is familiar with. Which is alan turing. And what he trying to do was cracked the enigma code and look good encryption. And how do you break. Encryption using a machine to automate repetitive process. Trying different numbers to see which one worked in order to break that code and there was another chain run by guy von neumann at actually his train of thought was more around understanding. How ballistics worked his style. His approach was very much around making the programming. Very simple and having hardware do a lot of the work whereas cheering this massively parallel. Actually there was a huge amount of complexity in the programming. Now as it happens it was vanoy. Men's approach that leads to this concept of a cpu our take logic unit and that classic architecture that we have today cheering 's approach actually didn't really catch onto.

Blockchain: What Is It Good For?
"Thanks the perfect storm of slain. You saw big marketing budgets and elon musk's tweets blockchain has been hyped beyond belief. And it's also been made more complicated than it leads to be. More i could up angolan go. My name's ingram go. I'm senior vice. President and chief technology officer for a special intelligence at hewlett packard enterprise. So first question. What exactly is a blockchain. Let's start with a public blockchain first. Let's use an example of a analogy of a of a ring binder. You've got this notebook with many blank pages bound by a ring ring binder on page one the record number of transactions. You know. maybe. Jim pays john two bitcoins and sarah pays jim ten bitcoins and so on and so on then on the next page You have the same again. Set of transactions being written down on it and the knicks page and then expansion so on so if if you imagine each page is a block and all the pages of bound by the ring bind up being the chain. You actually have a a blockchain there right. So that's what blockchain is except for the fact that in a public blockchain this ledger or this record. Write this chain of pages. Chain of blocks is digital and is distributed to everyone publicly equally publicly with no central custodian. Why you want to use a blockchain. There are two major reasons. Why you want us a blockchain right first and foremost this when you wanna keep record of an entire sequence of transactions especially if you want to go all the way to genesis the beginning and secondly you won that record to be transparent that is you want the decentralize it by distributing copies of the same sequence records to everyone equally with no central custodian

Supercomputing: An exascale-sized challenge?
"Terms of supercomputing and high performance computing or. Hp see are one and the same but you hear hp being used more moldy days. There's a growing cool for the democratisation of supercomputers which historically has been tricky because supercomputers weren't really created just to do any old bit of computing. His jacob bama hp and engineering research scientists from hewlett packard enterprise the for supercomputers were invented to solve a very specific problem a hydrodynamics problem for simulating nuclear weapons. So during world war two there were there. Were trying to develop these nuclear weapons they had to do. What's called a numerical simulation. It's essentially a fluid dynamic simulation and so they needed to run that problem numerically through a computer and that's kind of alan turing and john. Von layman come came up with the architecture in sort of the algorithm for running numerical methods on these systems supercomputers have come a long way in a relatively short amount of time thanks to innovation in materials experimental architectures industry pioneers like seymour cray and ever increasing processing speeds but for the most part until very recently these machines have been the domain of scientists the prospects of solving some of the really hard problems that have plagued humanity forever. That's like in our sights now like we could like feasibly solve problems like cancer and all these crazy permutations on corona virus. And and any of these like really scary viruses. That are gonna come out okay listeners. So this is one of those that starts normal and gets a little complicated. I'm going to get a little bit. But i i really wants to get to the bottom of these powerful machines and i wanted to understand what makes a sweeping meters so well super so i could up bill. Manel vice president and general manager of high performance computing hewlett packard and surprise. A super computer is a lot of processors memory and a high speed interconnect time together. Supercomputing provides the the hardware infrastructure if you will to do parallel computing. Parallel computing is important. Because typically in a problem you'd wanna break up the problem across multiple processors or or multiple servers or nodes typically. What you do is break up. The data that's called data partitioning where little chunks are putting in each server on each processor and then worked on independently and then at the end. You bring it all together. This parallel computing is kind of a big deal. It's what makes sense a numeric. Who problems i deal for. Cb computers on what makes them special or different to the the santa my desk. It's mostly because they're optimized around solving scientific and engineering problems in terms of how they can partition data. How they can manipulate the data. How they can keep a certain amount of data in memory at one time. So you're not always moving data back and forth to drive or to network for example. Okay key point. Here is all about data. Starting from those initial fluid dynamics simulation these big machines have been used for all kinds of modeling from whether to weapons alongside their partners. Intel bill and his team are in the process of deploying a supercomputer could aurora one of the world's first x. scale computers at the us department of energy. What's exco well to answer that. I need to know that supercomputer speed is measured in floating point operations per second aka flops which are basically just the number of calculations it can do a second exit scale computers computer. That's able to do at least a billion billion floating point calculations per second so there's no single chip in the world. That can do that. So you've gotta bring together a lot of chips into one system that allow you to accomplish that. It's basically tend to the eighteenth. In terms of number of floating point operations.

Where you're focused on inside of this digital services offering at a great question so as we've approached this it's really been from customer view and we've looked at how we can transform the way our customers engage with us as the business traditionally support business has been managed in one wanted two ways. It's either a face to face situation. Where a customer has a representative where there is actual face to face interaction. there's an onsite presence or there's an element that's a remote delivery side. What's your typical type call center or technical solution center. Where if a customer has a problem they call in and get that support the landscapes changing and our customers really just want that digital capability to self solve to self serve and own their own future. So what we're doing on the digital experience side is looking at our portal environment our social forums even looking into mobile applications where we can create a true environment. Our customers can operate. Add an end to end platform. That's integrated that has elements of a layered through it and at the same time. Has a seamless connected back to our telephony infrastructure so from a digital engagement perspective the costumer has the opportunity to choose when they want to engage with us a platform of choice and then as they work through driving business results were always there to support them not only digitally but also through our collective infrastructure back our global remote delivery

How Quibi crashed and burned so quickly
"So equity was always the odd duck all the new streaming services that immersive last year for just for listeners who don't stand top of the streaming rewards just give quick description of what could be is and what's happened to it. Quimby was a mobile initially mobile only than kind of transition to be mobile centric streaming video service. That made cereal like tv. In very short episodes everything was like ten minutes or last and it was very very expensive programming. They made big budget programming with really big stars. So it's pitch was that it was kind of like a curated. Youtube only with like the biggest and brightest of hollywood involved. The problem is they launched the service that was designed to be watched. Moberly on the go in those like brief much of your day where you have a spare ten minutes to watch something getting coffee. Waiting for us. Launched it at the beginning of all the lockdowns keeping people trapped in their homes so they had a mobile on the ghost service launching when nobody was mobile or on the go. That's one of the problems with but there's underlying consideration that. The premise of the service given that people already have youtube and they can watch other things on the go to netflix on the go on their mobile phones that the premise of this being a service at all was flawed from the beginning. So what's happened. At least as far as we know right now is that would be instead of trying to survive after six months is going to just shut down. We don't know exactly win but at some point the service is going to go dark and this programming is going to. I don't exactly know what's going to happen. So all this stuff that they made. Yeah i wanna get into that but it just. It's interesting just sort of looking at the background of their the foundation that this company was built on one point. Seven billion dollars in funding of meg. Whitman from hewlett packard. Lots of a-list talent But medina think looking back at this now it was was the model just fundamentally or was it just a matter. Bedtime may and launching in the middle of a pandemic. i remember maybe even before they had a name. I believe they katzenberg jeffrey katzenberg. The hollywood Whitman as you mentioned the ceo of the service they went to south by and they had this whole presentation. And i remember coming out of this presentation being like these people have no idea what they're getting into you know. They had really really ambitious goals. They talked a really big game but they're getting into something. That is really hard to break into going up against something like youtube. Which has two billion people watching it every month. So that's one way to kind of put in perspective whether or not the pandemic was the real. You know silver bullet that killed qube but also mentioned that i did. I did a poll on twitter. Asking people this exact question because they make whitman. Jeffrey kassenberg worth open letter. The apologized for disappointing. Their investors their workers their talent and they said in there. You know it we may never know what was the problem here was timing or was this a bad idea to begin with and so i had a poll on twitter quoting that portion of the letter and saying well which was it could be equals a bad idea or timing and i think eighty six percent of people could be was just a bad idea to begin with so

I think that's got me to do our own in to it absolutely. Is that inner light that intellect growing so strong. It's such a beautiful metaphor and it's a beautiful day for us to be having this conversation because it really all does tie together absolutely so. Let's start from the beginning. Where were you born and warm. Was your childhood lane. Well i was born in a little town called carlisle pennsylvania small town girl and You know i think i had. I had sort of your colonial white picket fence upbringing in one thousand nine hundred eighty s america which was really fun and if you remember the eighties and so it was really fun. Time to grow up. And i think that's it's those times it really started to develop my interest in intuition and i had a lot of intuitive experiences growing up so It all kind of stemmed from those childhood years amazing and work sort of influence. Did your family have on your intuitive or spiritual development. Yeah you know. That's a really good question because a lot of people we have this talk about intuition and when it happens to you intuition can be something that people can either accept or not accept right so when you're talking about kids and it's so important with kids because kids have such great in and they haven't really had it beaten out of the yet. It's one of these things still alive and still so connected with intuitive. Things starts to happen with children. Appearance can either encourage that or they can create fear. Be like oh my gosh. This is something to be afraid of or this is crazy. You know so it's You know working with intuition in my childhood it was challenging for me. Because i think coming from a really sort of traditional christian background. There's not a lot of room for intuition. Especially it was more of the protestant. I think in the catholic traditions. There's more of a place for the holy spirit in a lot of mistakes but in my experiences growing up in my little world there was not a place for intuition and so it was something i really had to come to terms with on my own and really facing a lot of fears and a lot of sort of judgment from the people around me and now they get it like my mom's very intuitive she inherited from her. I think it is something that we have a genetic propensity to. But i think there's just not that level of acceptance which in the east which i think is so wonderful about you know eastern cultures. Intuition is so much more integrated in daily life and acceptance right. Yeah that's that's very true. And i think like we were discussing before the india was india also is going to its own journey of realizing how abundant and whilst our own heritage is and going back to our roots realizing that wisdom about intuition and the mind and the soul and yes we're going through our journey as a country has But you know what what comes to. My mind is As i learned more about how children behave like a child always looking at his mom or her mom or her danna his dad for approval right. They're always looking at the so. It's not so much of words but it's also about how the bench reacts to. A certain situation are something that is happening on the word. Maybe that micro reaction that can make a huge difference right in terms of how the child approaches word even as an adult absolutely absolutely in those little foundational moments. They and this is talk a lot about conditioning. If you read my booker you hear me talk today. I'm probably going to use that word. A lot Because intuition is something that is really a counterbalance to this conditioning. That we all get and we get it from those very first moments with our family and with the people that we grow with you know. We're conditioned to think things. Like oh intuitions not real. Or we're conditioned thank like our imagination in our creativity isn't as important as our intellectual side so so part of really balancing these sides of our brains and really coming into our true being is stepping away from that conditioning in releasing it
