How To Stay Human in the Age of AI: The Origin Story
In this first episode of How to Stay Human, hosts Tori Gordon and Kyle Herron begin a timely and necessary conversation about what it means to stay grounded, present, and fully human in a world defined by speed, automation, and artificial intelligence. This podcast is more than content. It is an inquiry into our shared future. Tori brings a background in trauma-informed somatic healing, spiritual psychology, and integrative coaching. Kyle comes from the world of exponential technology and community building, leading Abundance360’s network of over 650 entrepreneurs working at the forefront of AI and longevity. Together, they offer a rare blend of soul and system, science and spirit. In this episode, they explore: - What happens when identity is no longer tied to function or productivity - Why artificial intelligence is forcing a deeper reckoning with self-worth - The collapse of old definitions of success - Masculinity, intimacy, and the pressure to perform - Creative expression and presence as revolutionary acts - How to stay connected to your body, breath, relationships, and spiritual center Whether you are a creator, entrepreneur, seeker, or simply trying to stay present in a world that feels increasingly synthetic, this episode offers grounding, perspective, and direction. This is the beginning of a new kind of conversation. One that honors humanity, protects joy, and reclaims what matters most.
