The Beyond Tomorrow Podcast with Julian Issa

Are we using artificial intelligence as a tool or allowing it to reshape how we think, work, and relate to ourselves without fully realizing it?AI educator and company founder Joshua Wöhle, alongside AI writer and former big-tech product designer Georgia Lewis Anderson, bring a rare behind-the-scenes perspective on how today’s AI systems are actually being built, adopted, and misunderstood. Drawing from their work training executives, designing human-machine interactions, and guiding organizations through rapid AI adoption, they reveal why most people aren’t falling behind because of technical skill but because of mindset. Through real-world examples, they explain how large language models, agentic systems, and personalization are quietly redefining productivity, decision-making, and creative work.Together, they explore the deeper implications of this shift from widening knowledge gaps and cultural resistance to the ethical risks of manipulation, dependency, and loss of purpose. Their conversation moves beyond hype and fear to ask more human questions: what skills truly matter in an AI-driven world, how intellectual humility becomes a competitive advantage, and why presence, intuition, and connection may be the very qualities that technology cannot replace.If you want to join the free Beyond Tomorrow Community, check the link: skool.com/beyond-tomorrow for more!  What You’ll LearnWhy 90% of effective AI use is a mindset shift, not tool masteryThe difference between AI assistants and agentic AI systemsHow to use AI as a thinking partner instead of a search engineWhy intellectual humility is becoming a critical leadership skillHow AI could redefine productivity, work, and purposeThe ethical risks of manipulation, dependency, and AI companionshipWhy personalization and contextualization are AI’s biggest breakthroughsHow society may need to rethink education, regulation, and economic models⏱ Timestamps00:00 Intro00:00 Meet Joshua and Georgia02:24 Entering a New Era of AI04:29 What Is a Self-Executing AI System?06:58 When AI Becomes a Superpower09:44 The First Shift to Using AI Well13:41 How AI Is Transforming Business Growth15:55 Bringing AI Into Your Life Intentionally19:15 A Future Where Work Is Optional26:29 Redefining Productivity in an AI World30:39 How Society Rewards Value Today39:26 When AI Becomes a Weapon45:07 The AI Tools That Matter Most49:09 Why Customized AI Prompts Change Everything52:16 Where AI Development Stands Today57:30 The Power of Intellectual Humility01:01:50 Do We Overestimate AI’s Short-Term Impact?01:03:36 Exploring AI and Spirituality01:05:02 Why AI Regulation Matters01:07:55 Can AI Ever Become Conscious?01:11:39 Imagining the Next Ten Years of AI01:14:02 Should AI Be Slowed Down for Safety?01:15:45 Where AI Creates the Greatest Gains01:17:34 AI Companionship and Mental Health01:21:04 The Most Valuable Human Skill in an AI Age01:24:38 A Bold Prediction for 203001:26:50 Learning to Get Comfortable with Discomfort🎙 Hosted by Julian Issa 📸 Instagram: @thebeyondtomorrowpodcast 🌐 Website: www.beyondtomorrowpodcast.com 📩 Email: [email protected] 🎧 Subscribe on Spotify, Apple, and YouTube for more stories from the edge of what is possible.Episode Resources:Joshua WohleWebsite: https://www.mindstone.com/ X: https://x.com/JoshuaWohle  LinkedIn: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/joshuawohle Georgia Lewis AndersonWebsite: https://www.georgialewisanderson.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/georgia_laLinkedIn: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/georgia-lewis-anderson-055000122

Are you living life or living in a constant state of survival without realizing it?HRV expert and nervous system educator Salim Najjar helps unravel what’s happening beneath the surface. He opens up about how early childhood loss, Lebanese cultural conditioning, and years of nonstop striving wired him to live in a constant state of alertness. Through his story, he explains how the body holds onto unprocessed emotions, how ancestral trauma can shape our sense of safety, and why heart rate variability (HRV) is one of the most revealing signals of our internal world.Salim also breaks down the science behind chronic stress and why it quietly fuels inflammation, burnout, and emotional reactivity. More importantly, he shares practical tools, from somatic awareness practices to reframing and intentionality, that helped him rebuild his own nervous system and step into what he calls “nervous system sovereignty.”If you want to join the free Beyond Tomorrow Community, check the link: skool.com/beyond-tomorrow for more!  What You’ll LearnHow the nervous system shifts between sympathetic and parasympathetic statesWhy HRV is the most honest indicator of stress and internal healthHow childhood and ancestral trauma imprint on the bodyHow somatic awareness helps release stored emotional patternsThe five pathways for HRV growth: sleep, hormetic stress, reframing, intentionality, communityHow reframing experiences can instantly shift physiological stressWhy community and co-regulation are essential for nervous system resilience⏱ Timestamps00:00 Intro01:04 What Your Body Is Really Asking For01:44 Growing Up as First-Generation Lebanese03:42 Inside Lebanese Family Culture06:20 How Healing Yourself Impacts Future Generations10:45 Why We React the Way We Do15:15 A Guided Somatic Awareness Practice17:33 Understanding Heart Rate Variability (HRV)19:13 Making Sense of Your HRV Score23:26 Chronic Stress: The Hidden Source of Inflammation29:00 What True Healing Can Look Like35:56 Two Powerful Ways to Reduce Stress40:29 How to Shift Into a Parasympathetic State42:58 The Transformative Power of Reframing45:54 The Intentionality Behind Your Actions49:06 Why Community Is Essential for Well-Being50:09 The Nervous System’s Deep Need for Safety55:01 How HRV Helped Sarah Reclaim Her Health01:12:01 A Gentle Reminder: Be Kinder to Yourself🎙 Hosted by Julian Issa 📸 Instagram: @thebeyondtomorrowpodcast 🌐 Website: www.beyondtomorrowpodcast.com 📩 Email: [email protected] 🎧 Subscribe on Spotify, Apple, and YouTube for more stories from the edge of what is possible.Episode Resources:Salim NajjarWebsite: https://thathrvguy.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thathrvguy/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/salimm.najjar/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thathrvguy LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/salimnajjar

What happens when the future of humanity is no longer something we wait for but something we can choose?When science gives us that kind of power, the real question becomes how wisely we’re prepared to use it. Today, Jonathan joins Julian to break down the fast-evolving world of embryo selection and what it could mean for the future of human evolution. Jonathan explains how IVF has grown from a niche medical procedure into a window into chromosomal health, genetic risk, and now polygenic traits that influence everything from disease risk to intelligence. They also revisit the history of eugenics, unpack the huge difference between past state-controlled abuses and today’s individual, non-coercive choices, and show why modern genomic tools aren’t about “playing God” but about making more informed, thoughtful decisions rooted in science.What traits should families even care about? How do we keep individuality alive when selection becomes easier? And what happens when science, politics, and markets start overlapping in ways society isn’t quite prepared for? Julian and Jonathan dig into the complexity behind intelligence, personality, mental health, and moral behavior, while also touching on industry controversies, regulation challenges, and the importance of transparency in genetic prediction.Jonathan Anomaly is a philosopher and researcher focused on the ethics of genetics, human enhancement, and emerging biotechnologies. He works at the intersection of science and philosophy, helping shape how genomic prediction and reproductive technologies are understood and responsibly used.If you want to join the free Beyond Tomorrow Community, check the link: skool.com/beyond-tomorrow for more!  What You’ll LearnWhat embryo selection is and how it differs from gene editingHow IVF evolved and gained public acceptanceWhy heredity matters for reducing disease riskHow polygenic scoring predicts health and traitsHow tech and society shape each otherThe risks and limits of gene editingWhat the future of reproductive tech may look like⏱ Timestamps00:00 Intro00:00 What embryo selection really means00:00 Why IVF and gene editing aren’t the same09:31 How understanding heredity can shape better outcomes14:42 The natural spread of human intelligence22:19 Rethinking what it means to be human26:00 The concept of iterated embryo selection30:58 How technology and society evolve together36:10 A different lens on world wars and human behavior40:07 Choosing a child’s intelligence: what that actually involves44:53 The health risks and limits of gene editing52:33 Using AI with the right intentions for humanity’s future55:43 The concerns surrounding Herasight01:03:55 How future traits can be predicted in embryos01:07:26 What the future of gene editing could look like01:10:33 Why embryo choice matters for families🎙 Hosted by Julian Issa 📸 Instagram: @thebeyondtomorrowpodcast 🌐 Website: www.beyondtomorrowpodcast.com 📩 Email: [email protected] 🎧 Subscribe on Spotify, Apple, and YouTube for more stories from the edge of what is possible.Episode Resources:Jonathan AnomalyWebsite: https://jonathan-anomaly.com/ X: https://x.com/JonathanAnomaly

What if the real secret to aging well isn’t found in a futuristic lab, but in understanding your body more honestly than you ever have before?From the very first question, this conversation challenges the assumptions most of us carry about health, longevity, and what it means to “measure” how well we’re aging. Instead of getting lost in the noise of biological clocks, trends, and high-priced diagnostics, Julian, Andrea, and Matt bring everything back to practical, evidence-backed fundamentals, the kind of markers any person can track, understand, and actually do something about. It’s a refreshing look at why knowing your sleep patterns, blood pressure, daily habits, and cognitive health may be more powerful than any shiny longevity product marketed today.Andrea Maier is a leading geriatrician focused on improving health span through practical, evidence-based approaches, and Matt Kaeberlein is a renowned longevity researcher exploring the biology of aging and interventions to extend healthy life.Their focus shifts to the future: personalized medicine, repurposed therapies, the role of AI, and the growing public demand for accessible, trustworthy health guidance. The ideas here don’t promise magic fixes or miracle pills; instead, they offer a roadmap for making better decisions, understanding your own data, and appreciating how much your daily environment shapes your long-term well-being. It’s an honest, grounded, and deeply encouraging exploration of how anyone can start improving their health span, no matter where they’re starting from.Big thanks for our sponsors of this episode Immortal Dragons.

What if the future of longevity isn’t just about living longer but finally understanding what your hormones have been trying to tell you?Dr. Amy Killen joins us to unpack the science of longevity through the lens of women’s health and modern medicine. From hormone therapy and metabolic health to GLP-1 medications and cold plunging, Amy explains how small, evidence-based shifts can transform not just how long we live but how well we age.But beyond the science, this episode is also about empowerment. Dr. Killen reminds us that true longevity means living with awareness of our bodies, our stress, and our disconnection from nature and each other. It’s a thought-provoking deep dive into how technology, environment, and mindset all intersect to shape the future of health.Big thanks for our sponsors of this episode Immortal Dragons.
