In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Helané Wahbeh, Director of Research at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS). In this conversation, we explore the frontier of human consciousness, intention, and our innate capacities that extend beyond the five senses. From the origins of IONS—founded by Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell after a life-changing transcendent experience in space—to the cutting-edge research being conducted today, this episode uncovers how science is beginning to validate what many have experienced: the interconnectedness of all life.

INOS research applies the rigours of the scientific method to Psi Phenomena, including intuition, telepathy, remote viewing, and channelling. We examine how belief and meditation enhance these abilities, the role of genetics in psychic potential, and how technology may influence or diminish our innate human sensitivities.

This is a thought-provoking dialogue for anyone curious about bridging science and spirituality, and about unlocking the extraordinary possibilities that lie within. A vision for humanity on the edge of rediscovering the deeper magic of what it means to be human.
