    Is AI Intelligent or Conscious and What About The Humans?

    Thank you for tuning in!

    The more I study this AI conversation, the more I am so damn happy I have studied humans for over 30 years and spent 20 of those years bridgebuilding a tradtional Raja/ Jnana yogic wisdom into the human condition. I have been writing on everything from the Pope and cyborgs to AI bias in diagnostics, right back to my core values and human consciousness when thinking about AI ethics. As I listen to the many AI spaces being held, the more I realize I am in such a rare position. My curvy path getting from being a typical pre med reasoning student 30 years ago, to ending up a bit of an game changer on how care was delivered to then feeling that time inside the arena as a provider was complete has always been walked from the role of an avant- guard observer. That is likely why it feels like wanting to be on the side of the humans, the ones taking on the most risks of liabilities inside the AI healthcare conversations, feels like the yoga I have always been doing.

    Instead of using a frame of spirituality, In this podcast/ Substack share, I rather speak in the paradigm of consciousness. This is because STEM conversations can relate to that now so as I take a topic from the public podcast to more depth over on my Substack, I see the language will be more consistent.

    In today's podcast I stick to the body and what Owning HER health has become inside all these ongoing "Intelligence" conversations. In my show and the tangent Substack I am writing, I discuss how intelligence relates to wisdom and consciousness because women embody all three in a way we need to begin to reclaim.

    As I suggest in this episode, none of the science right now is technically new. We did not discover much after antibiotics and a deeper genome understanding. What we did gather and discover was more information. We have the data. With AI we have more and more data and we have the computational speeds and advantage of large amounts of pattern recognition. We see the patterns and created the knowledge systems and made those knowledge systems into the sciences, engineering, technology development and medicine but those 4 realms of STEM are rooted in the humanities, and the arts which keep them anchored in truth and that will always be sustaining.

    Listen in on how I am creating a link between our wombs, hearts and heads on this as well as how we can begin to become ecologically engaged and intuitively knowing enough to keep wondering. Women need a Lifeschool for after we are just completely done from being extracted from but not done with contributing. That is what Menopause was supposed to usher in. Discover what I call a tripart Biospiritual Ecology of Owning our health via the acceptance and resolution between the Head, Heart and Gut Intelligence.

  • Bypassing Human Friction for Artificial Control
    2026/05/21
    Key Points Overview
    • The Refusal of Evolutionary Integration: Evolutionary dead-ends historically occurred when hominids prioritized dominance and self-deification over ecological partnership. Silicon Valley is repeating this trajectory by attempting to engineer a technology that bypasses our biological and spiritual ecology.

    • The Pathology of Friction Removal: Technological evolution over the last two decades has been an ongoing effort to codify and institutionalize individual social discomfort. Major platforms were explicitly built to redefine human connection into controllable, digital interfaces to avoid the friction of real psychological maturity.

    • The Linguistic Shift from Humans to Agents: The evolution of the digital landscape has deliberately shifted vocabulary from organic concepts like "friends" to artificial entities like "agents." This vocabulary tracks a corresponding removal of relational intelligence and authentic human presence.

    • Fabricated Demand and Psych-Ops Economics: By merging technical logic with hyper-capitalism, tech monopolies abandoned the traditional parameters of supply and demand. Instead, they weaponized psychological operations and advertising playbooks to fabricate human deficits, scaling extraction under the banner of "innovation."

    • The Myth of Exhausted Human Intelligence: The tech elite operates on the arrogant assumption that humanity has exhausted its understanding of its own internal technologies (intuition, somatic integration, ancient wisdom). This premise justifies the reckless rollout of uncontrolled artificial systems before our own psychological and governance models have matured.

    Own a health clinic or care business and confused about this AI in Human risks and Healthcare talk???

    I write a Substack and have another podcast focused on exploring the future of healthcare work, human sustainability, and how health leaders get to redesign and redefine community health in the AI era. Subscribe HERE.

  • We Didn't Forget to Design the System. They Just Never Designed It For Us.
    2026/05/21
    Full Summary (with Timestamps where available) (00:00:00 – 00:00:25) — Opening and Reframe: AI Care and the Systems We Forgot to Design Dr. Lisa opens as founder of MindBody Enterprises and situates the episode's focus: AI care and what happens when AI is being layered onto systems that were never properly built in the first place. She names this as the central problem — not AI itself, but the broken infrastructure it is being inserted into. (00:00:25 – 00:02:10) — Who She Is and Why She Pivoted: From Clinician to Systems Architect She reintroduces herself for new listeners: a clinician who moved into leadership development after seeing that the root problem wasn't individual patient outcomes — it was the systemic conditions preventing women in the care economy from doing their work sustainably. She closes the Belly Guru chapter and opens MindBody Enterprises specifically because she saw the design gap: not in what women were building, but in the fact that the larger system was never building for them. (00:02:10 – 00:04:15) — Third Wave Feminism and the Design Gap This is one of the episode's most pointed passages. She speaks directly to Gen X women who fought their way into institutions — got the career, got the paycheck, got the seat at the table — and then discovered it wasn't working. Not because they failed, but because they were trying to operate within a system designed around a different body, a different cycle, a different set of values. The system wasn't designed for them. Third-wave feminism got women in the room. Nobody redesigned the room. (00:04:15 – 00:06:30) — The Care Economy Was Always Being Designed — Just Not By the People in Charge She pushes back on the narrative that the care economy was forgotten or neglected by design. It wasn't forgotten — it was deliberately excluded. Women, community health workers, doulas, midwives, yoga therapists, peer providers: they have been designing and running systems of care for decades. The oligarchs of the 1920s — and their contemporary equivalents — were never building for those systems. They were building against them. She names the current political administration's nostalgia for the gilded age and the extractive economics of the 1800s as the most visible expression of this dynamic. (00:06:30 – 00:08:00) — What "Scaling" Actually Means for Women in Care She redefines scale for her audience. Scaling is not building a multi-million dollar enterprise. Scaling is optimizing your household, your small clinic, your nonprofit, your community. Women have been doing this for generations — in grandmothering, in volunteer work, in the horizontal networks of care that hold communities together. The problem is not that they haven't been scaling. The problem is that the larger system refuses to assign that work economic value. And they are now trying to plug AI into that same undervalued infrastructure and call it innovation. (00:08:00 – 00:10:30) — Bio-Spiritual Ecology, Ecological Economics, and the Curvy Hustle She names her frameworks explicitly: Bio-Spiritual Ecology, Ecological Economics, and the Curvy Hustle. These are not abstract concepts — they are the operational and philosophical architecture for building community health infrastructure that is regenerative rather than extractive. She traces the lineage from the Belly Guru's yoga for MS patients, to the Mind Over Body Pain work, to the Goddess Mastermind, to MindBody Enterprises — each iteration deepening her understanding of what it takes to build economic models that don't require women to choose between their values and their survival. (00:10:30 – 00:13:00) — Where She Works Now: The Intersection of Human Design, Community Health, and Technology Integration She names her current positioning clearly: her work sits at the intersection of human design, community health infrastructure, and what it actually takes to integrate technology without degrading people in the process. She gives the Oracle layoff — 20,000–30,000 employees waking up to a termination email at 6 AM — as the starkest current example of what happens when institutions treat technology as a replacement for human systems rather than an enhancement of them. That is not efficiency. That is extraction wearing the costume of innovation. (00:13:00 – 00:15:30) — The EMR Parallel: We Have Seen This Exact Playbook Before This section is clinically precise and historically grounded. She takes listeners back to 2011, sitting in a lunch meeting being trained on how to get five-star patient experience ratings using the Disney method — while drowning in paper charts, underfunded, and being told there was no budget for expanding maternal care access to the maternity floor. The EMR rollout was being sold as an efficiency tool while simultaneously adding documentation burden to clinicians who were already out of time. AI is being sold the same way today. The playbook is ...

  • Allow Me To Reintroduce Myself
    2026/04/01
    Show Transcript: Approx 25 Min Total Episode. Watch on You Tube Lissette Holland Hey, hey, hey, Dr. Lisa here. So excited. After a two-year hiatus, for those of you who are new to owning her health, thank you very much for being here. Those of you who are not new and carrying over and watching this again, it's been two years, actually two and a half years. for this owning, you know, for my Owning Her Health podcast. And I wanted to come out today. This is a very intentional day, March 25th, 2026. I wanted to record it live because that's always when my energy, that's the best way for me to record these podcasts, the interactions, the conversations. So why are we returning now? Well, I wanted to one, reintroduce myself in this and explain that. So for those of you who don't know me, I'm a former clinician and I kind of came on the scene as the belly guru, but really through my mentoring, the belly guru was fairly local. It was a radical at the time 2005 coming in with a direct access boutique practice by by I wasn't even a doctor of physical therapy at that point. It was just a regular licensed physical therapist because the doctor didn't even come in till about 2000. We did not bring up the profession to a doctorate I think till about 2010 nine somewhere in there and then I did, I upgraded and went back to school and filled in all the gaps. But prior to that I came into the world of allied health through athletic training. (02:17.998) BLue Ocean Markets My undergrad was in that I have a bachelor's in that sports medicine was working with Division one athletes, semi professional high performance work, a good 10 years in New York City orthopedics worked for top hospitals Mount Sinai, Saint Luke's Roosevelt. I did the gamut of you know, pediatric, through geriatric, through my career. And when I saw what was going on with the economics up in New York, I decided to move out. And my intention was to move to a direct access state, which means that I did not need a doctor's prescription before I could do my practice, before I could use my licensure, which is how it should be. Which is how community health should be. And so I was very intent in finding a direct access state and North Carolina was one of them. And so we moved down to the Charlotte Metro area in 2004, we opened up the Belly Guru in 2005. It was meant to take a 180 degree pivot into women's health because of my own experience despite all I knew and all my awards and my top recommendations of by everybody I worked with and all of my good accolades and you know I went through maternity very naive and I realized the stuff my mother had been going through at the time. I didn't know this, but by the time I actually opened up a radical ( for the Charlotte Market of 2005) integrative community-based, physical therapy office, under a theme of yoga therapy. I knew I was in the Bible, but I did not realize that the second top banking town in America was so behind the number one banking town in terms of thinking of yoga as like a demonic kind of thing. So that was an interesting know your audience moment, but I was naive and I'm glad I was because I didn't realize how revolutionary I was. It ended up me being 10 years in direct access cash-based wellness practice, integrative, making myself the gatekeeper, really flattening the hierarchy of medicine and taking it into a horizontal with the other professions that I brought into my center. (04:42.504) I did not know that I couldn't do it. And therefore I could. And so I became a mentor, a peer mentor, quite organically when everyone else started waking up to the fact that you could just say the heck with what the insurance company was doing in terms of gatekeeping, the heck with the fact that doctors might have found you competitive and been owning your clinics and orthopedics, physician-owned practices, where you didn't have the control over your profession. And I just did it, naively and therefore first and fast. And that's a lot of what I feel now with the AI movement. There were no rules against certain things. So therefore I could do it until someone would stop me. If I Had Had AI Back Then Unfortunately, AI right now is very, very dangerous to take that same mentality as entrepreneurship. So there's a lot to say. I opened up a My Body Brand Academy. It was a brand academy for my peers. I was focused from the women's health aspect to a women's empowerment aspect, which was what the core work of my center was. It was lifestyle, it was coaching. was all the things that I didn't realize were in 10 years gonna be the way the rest of my peers would finally welcome. I didn't know how long it was gonna take. I knew it was a trend, that's why I went on it. I just didn't know that they were gonna do such a radical thing and it was gonna end up being economics. so economics, health policy, health politics, economics, the academia, all of that is very intertwined. And I'm gonna be bringing that into my show ...

    This is a lone bridge episode between the old and the new answering: Why did I return after 2.5 years? The truth I had to face of my own dismantling.

No music, raw talk, Invite to Join my Substack so we can make this era of the show more interactive and a two way dynamic. Sponsors get a private podcast and guest invites. Tag someone who needs to hear this! 37 minutes: Forward to the clips you need via the Transcript: I'm Dr. Lisa, and we're trying out this pre-recording of the live. My podcast, Owning HER Health™, show is coming back after about a two and a half year hiatus for various reasons, which I want to explain here. I thought I'd try this out. basically this is a solo episode and I'm not going to put any music underneath. I'm not going to make anything fancy. I'm doing the show for the content of it. I'm not here to impress. I'm not here to perform. I'm hoping that the five years that I've kind of been quiet in terms of not coaching per se, not doing a lot of the group coaching. It's been about five years since I ran my last mind body brand Academy, closer to six years. Gosh, it's crazy. About five and a half years. And really the show was for that audience, which were women that, you know, uh, craved their career. lot of them were in the caregiver economy, whether they were necessarily in healthcare or not. A lot of them were because that's who I was helping primarily through my Mind Body Brand Academy. But I came back now because I was going to retire that show. But the crap show that's happened here in America, which we really can't be surprised about, although I think we're grieving. know particularly Gen X and older millennials, millennials in general, we're grieving because we genuinely, our parents were ignorant, but here in the US, we weren't. Lissette Holland (02:14.208) And yet we got seduced enough into the climate, into the comforts, into the gains we had made, into the culture and completely missed that since Nixon. The people who didn't like Nixon getting impeached or leaving put into effect a lot of stuff and a lot of things have been you know, dismantled. And I had to come back because... I am ready because I became dismantled. For those of you who are new and didn't listen to any of my old shows or know me, my whole life and structure and roles, marriage, my kids getting a little bit older, my brand, I had retired sort of the belly guru. I had been moving into you know moving online working on my ex's business to make that a family business and a family empire When I look back, you know, I can see why I was kicked out of that because of what was to come by the time we got to the pandemic I had already suffered from white collar domestic violence from betrayals and family from a lot of the the deconstruction work Lissette Holland (03:51.054) from the patriarchy and I had gone through that in my inner circles. And so I could look at it from a perspective of like, okay, everybody's gonna finally like understand what I'm saying. Cause it was always so hard for me and probably if you're neurodivergent, and I'm not even gonna say neurodivergent, I'm gonna say non-normative, non-mediocrity. You have always probably had a really hard time with explaining what you felt innately. And I understand that. I intimately understand that. But you could hold your intimate circles and you could work on certain projects and this and that. Well, now we got a big project and I couldn't retire at owning her health because everything I had created The Belly Guru for and Owning HER Health™ and moving that empowerment out into the world, regardless of your situation, is more needed now than I think it was needed 10 years ago when I launched the podcast. October 31st, Halloween Eve, I recorded my first show. But that in and of itself, being a Halloween show. (2016) was just such a different America and world. I can so relate to where we need to be here in redefining her. You're the her, but the world needs to redefine and we're finally gonna have enough men on board who are realizing this has nothing to do with my masculinity. This ultra masculinity that they're pushing, this ultrapatriarchy that has turned into anarchy almost, we're almost at the edge of that, but definitely an authoritarian fascism underlying and Christian national and all that tie in, men are now deconstructing themselves from. They're realizing the injury of the patriarchy without us saying it and them feeling shameful for falling for it. Lissette Holland (06:12.706) Listen, we all fell for it. I feel that grief as Gen X. I can feel it. It's a similar grief to what many men are feeling, especially if they're Gen X, especially if they're older millennials, where we were so close. We were the generation that really, even if it was propaganda to distract us and think we're going for a democracy and being the global ...
