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.

Dr. Keith Witt and Corey deVos explore how cybernetics — the science of self-correcting systems — reveals the hidden logic of love, power, trauma, and societal evolution. Through the lens of integral theory, they trace feedback loops across all dimensions of life, showing how everything from personal healing to political dysfunction is shaped by the quality of communication and coherence in our systems.

After the tragic murder of his father at age 20, Alexander Love began a decades-long journey through grief, spiritual practice, and shadow work — seeking not just to rise above his pain, but to finally and fully include it. In this deeply personal conversation, he shares how real healing began not with transcendence, but with embracing the very wounds he had tried to escape.

Mark Edwards and Bruce Alderman explore Jean-Pierre Faye's "Horseshoe Theory," which reveals that political extremes curve toward each other when they abandon democratic norms, explaining why some voters support both Trump and AOC as anti-establishment alternatives. The discussion introduces meta-theoretical tools including Roy Bhaskar's concept of "demi-reality," Bruno Latour's analysis of "modal confusion," and the possibility of "post-conventional coalitions" that transcend left-right polarization while maintaining democratic integrity.

Keith and Corey examine AI’s cognitive, relational, cultural, and developmental impacts — highlighting both the dangers of projection, offloading, and disembodiment, and the opportunities to use AI as a practice partner for discernment, shadow integration, and growth. Corey then showcases some of the new AI tools now available to all Core Members of Integral Life.

In this episode of Integral Edge, Keith Martin-Smith explores the modern crisis of masculinity and offers a powerful framework for reclaiming the healthy strengths of traditional, modern, and postmodern masculine expressions. Rather than choosing between power and empathy, discipline and vulnerability, Keith shows how wholeness means learning to embody all of them—at the right time, in the right way.

What happens when an entire political movement loses its center of gravity and fragments into conspiracy theories, tech libertarianism, and religious separatism? Philosopher David Storey uses Integral Theory to map the post-Trump American Right and explore whether a truly developmental conservatism might emerge from the chaos.

Law professor and integral scholar Mark Fischler argues that American courts remain trapped in a binary approach to rights — a structure that cannot meet the complexity of today’s pluralistic society. Drawing on the example of Roe v. Wade, comparative legal models, and integral theory, he proposes a new legal paradigm — Integral Democratic Inclusivity — capable of honoring multiple rights and fostering a more inclusive, evolving vision of justice.
