Corey deVos and Stephanie Lepp unpack Stephanie’s Faces of Free Speech—a short-form installation featuring Destiny (Steven Bonnell) performing multiple perspectives on the free speech polarity—then trace why “more speech” only works as a remedy inside healthy information ecosystems. Along the way, they clarify why synthesis isn’t centrist compromise but a sharp integration of the healthiest expressions of opposing poles, and Corey tests the piece through an Integral Life “debate analyzer” prototype that maps polarity, developmental framing, and pathways toward deeper sensemaking.

Former ACLU president Nadine Strossen joins us to explore why censorship is rising across the political spectrum — and why fear-driven speech controls, even when well-intentioned, often do more harm than good.

In this visionary keynote, John Churchill explores the collision between exponential technological power and humanity’s lack of spiritual maturity, warning that without sacred initiation, our civilization risks becoming the sorcerer’s apprentice—enchanted by tools we cannot control. But alongside this Fourth Industrial Revolution, he reveals a parallel awakening: a Fourth Turning of consciousness, where psychedelics, contemplative traditions, and the science of the heart converge to birth a planetary culture rooted in coherence, compassion, and soul.

The Four Quadrants are a simple but radical upgrade in perspective: reality always shows up through four irreducible lenses—the inner and outer of the individual (I/It) and the inner and outer of the collective (We/Its)—and most conflict and confusion comes from mistaking one lens for the whole. Quadrant literacy trains you to “see whole” by locating what’s true in each perspective (experience, behavior, culture, systems), so you can communicate more skillfully and respond to complexity with greater clarity, compassion, and practical leverage.

Cindy Wigglesworth presents spiritual intelligence (SQ) as a vital developmental line alongside physical, cognitive, and emotional intelligence, defining it as the ability to act with wisdom and compassion while maintaining inner and outer peace. Drawing on research, practical frameworks, and her SQ21 model of 21 skills, she shows how cultivating SQ transforms spirituality from abstract potential into concrete behaviors that foster wise leadership, compassionate presence, and greater collective resilience in the face of global crises.

This conversation between Keith Martin-Smith and Michael Porcelli explores the hidden dynamics that shape how we communicate, from cultural conditioning to emotional awareness to the unseen “third entity” of relationship. Together they unpack why so many conversations go off the rails—and how we can learn to repair, realign, and relate with greater depth, clarity, and skill.

Kimberley Lafferty and Thomas McConkie explore how we can return to the spiritual traditions of our childhood with new eyes — not through regression, but through transformation. Drawing from Tantra, Mormonism, and Integral spirituality, they illuminate a shared mystical core that invites us to embody divinity through both transcendence and humble, concrete service.

Keith Martin-Smith offers a bold, developmental critique of modern DEI, tracing its evolution from fairness-based policy to postmodern orthodoxy. He explores how inclusion can become exclusion when empathy gives way to ideology—and outlines how DEI might survive by embracing complexity, dissent, and shared humanity.
