Artificial intelligence is evolving at an unprecedented pace—what does that mean for the future of technology, venture capital, business, and even our understanding of ourselves? Award-winning journalist and writer Anil Ananthaswamy joins us for our latest episode to discuss his latest book Why Machines Learn: The Elegant Math Behind Modern AI . Anil helps us explore the journey and many breakthroughs that have propelled machine learning from simple perceptrons to the sophisticated algorithms shaping today’s AI revolution, powering GPT and other models. The discussion aims to demystify some of the underlying mathematical concepts that power modern machine learning, to help everyone grasp this technology impacting our lives–even if your last math class was in high school. Anil walks us through the power of scaling laws, the shift from training to inference optimization, and the debate among AI’s pioneers about the road to AGI—should we be concerned, or are we still missing key pieces of the puzzle? The conversation also delves into AI’s philosophical implications—could understanding how machines learn help us better understand ourselves? And what challenges remain before AI systems can truly operate with agency? If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform.

"How Do I GET OUT Of Spiritual Droughts?" - Escaping The Casual Christianity Trap (Pt. 2) | Ep. 66 48:21

48:21

Are there times when you feel like your spiritual life has hit a wall? Maybe you’re just not “feeling it” with God lately, or your connection with him feels distant, routine, or stagnant. If so, you’re not alone—and we’ve been there, too. It's a common struggle that's part of our human experience... but the real danger is STAYING there. In this episode, we open up about our own personal experiences of feeling spiritually dry and even stale. We also share practical, real-life steps that help us reconnect with God and reignite our faith—even on the days we may not “feel it.” If you’re ready to move past surface-level faith and want a relationship with God that’s truly alive and thriving, this episode is for you. We pray this conversation helps transform your spiritual droughts into powerful growth! P.S.

34:40

Do you ever feel like your faith is just another checkbox? Like you’re going through the motions, doing all the “right” things—going to church, saying your prayers, cracking open your Bible—but something still feels like it's missing? In this episode, we’re peeling back the layers on “lukewarm” Christianity, what it looks like, and why it’s so easy to slip into it . If you’ve ever felt the quiet tug for something more —a deeper connection , a real purpose , a faith and relationship with God that’s alive and active — this conversation is for you. We get real about our own personal experiences being lukewarm, the unspoken dangers of it, and why settling for this "shallow" way of following God costs us way more than we realize. Join us in exploring what it means to go ALL in with God - and step into the freedom that comes when you let him lead and transform every part of your life! 💌 P.S.

Ever feel like no matter how much you do, it’s still not enough? Like you’re on this exhausting hamster wheel, chasing the next task, project, achievement, or something else... but never really "arriving"? In Part 2 of this conversation on how to free ourselves from hustle culture, we’re diving into why we feel this way and how our fast-paced, busyness-glorifying world - along with all the pressures from family and society - keeps us stuck in that cycle. Join us as we talk about everything from FOMO to invisible scripts that leave us feeling anxious and drained (especially for us personally as Asian American children of immigrants) - and how to actually break free from them. We also share real, practical ways that have helped us learn to live and work out of a place of rest (even if you’re not sure where to start) and how to "be still" with God WHILE doing work and fulfilling our God-given callings - without overcomplicating it. 👇RELATED LINKS: "How Do I ACTUALLY Spend Time With God?" - Escaping Hustle Culture (Pt. 1) (Ep. 63): https://withthetrans.com/blog/e63 "I Went From Working 60+ Hours/Week to 2 HOURS/Day!" | SUPERNATURAL Productivity with Christy Childers (Ep. 25): https://withthetrans.com/blog/e25 Mindset NeuroCoach: Overwhelmed by Work?

28:13

We’re diving into a topic today that feels more real than ever... especially as we all feel the weight of increasing responsibilities, roles, and expectations as we get older. It’s no secret that the pressures of adulting, career, and hustle culture all around us often perpetuate a constant cycle of stress and restlessness... So how do we resist and find freedom from the hustle? This episode is part 1 of our conversation where we open up about how, for us, spending intentional time with God has played a HUGE role doing just this - including these past few months. Join us as we unpack why spending time with God can often feel so hard and elusive - and share practical tools that you can apply right away for making time with God a priority (even if you're not a morning person!). We hope this conversation helps demystify what it really looks like to escape the hustle and anchor yourself in the very real and accessible presence of God. 👇RELATED LINKS: The #1 Most Important Thing In Life Is This (Ep. 1): https://withthetrans.com/blog/e1 "I Can't FEEL God...

Hey friends! We. Are. BACK!!! Oh man, these past few months have been FULL of transitions—pregnancy updates, Alex stepping back into corporate life, deepening our spiritual foundations—and it's all been a mix of both ups and downs. We’re excited to catch up with you all, share some real-life real-TIME lessons we've been learning along the way, and dig into the messiness of transitions and the uncertainties of not knowing what’s ahead or what to do next... If you’re feeling the pull to step into something new, but perhaps are holding back because of fear or uncertainty... we get it. We talk through the tension of wanting to be somewhere else in life but feeling stuck where you are right now—and what we've found personally helpful in gaining clarity around how/where God is leading AND having internal peace amidst all the external uncertainties. 👇Related Links: Finding out our baby's gender!: https://youtu.be/arBNChYjdsY Alex on leaving his former corporate job: https://withthetrans.com/blog/e51 How God led us to move to San Diego: https://withthetrans.com/blog/e41 Grace's Testimonies / Personal YouTube: https://youtube.com/@gracetran --------------- 💌 Get each week's episode & helpful resources sent directly to you for FREE, along with EXCLUSIVE sneak peeks & perks: https://withthetrans.com/email 🆕 JOIN OUR FREE FACEBOOK COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/groups/overflowcollective 💬 Get personalized help overcoming your life's challenges & internal barriers through our 1-on-1 Spirit-led & science-based coaching.

P.S. ALSO, we forgot to mention this but the timing of it all ended up being perfect (God is clutch!), because we're joining with our church to do a 40-Day Digital Fast, starting today! Decluttering our minds, hearts, souls to hear more from God, be more present, and live more outside our screens. (You're welcome to join us in doing this, too , if you want!)

Join our transformative 12-week cohort-based group coaching program + signature course, with the loving accountability + support from us as your coaches + a consistent cohort of like-minded women committed to spurring each other on in learning to work (and THRIVE) GOD'S WAY. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity you do NOT want to miss! ⌛ ENROLLMENT CLOSES THIS WEDNESDAY! → withthetrans.com/rhythms --------- Grace grew up thinking it normal to work late nights (all the time), pack her schedule, push her body to its limits. This kind of lifestyle had been glorified in the fast-paced, Ivy-League-striving Bay Area where she'd grown up. And still... it was never enough. But she kept pushing through anyway, to "maximize" her life and impact. But what she DIDN'T realize were all the HIDDEN costs she was incurring over the years... Chronic stress from the endless to-do's. Constant guilt for not doing more for more people. Depletion, low energy, mood swings from sleep deprivation, stress eating, lack of self-care and TRUE, deep soul rest. All the stress her body was storing. The unexplainable itchy rashes, fainting spells, even a seizure. Scary 9-1-1 calls and ER visits... Fast forward to today.. . We're both full-time entrepreneurs amidst a very different yet also very similar world of hustle culture, high stakes and even MORE pressure, opportunities to endlessly work and burn ourselves to the ground... But thank God... we've learned a BETTER WAY to work - and LIVE. If you've ever wondered: "Is it NORMAL to wear busyness & perfectionism like a badge?"

We'd love for you to join us in it!! -------- Struggling to hear from God or feel deeply connected to him? Feeling stuck or stagnant in your faith? Unsure about how to "invite God in" to heal your pain? Today, we sit down with our friend Reigha Tencer (Host Pastor at Jesus Culture San Diego) to dive into the VITAL topic of cultivating a REAL, PERSONAL, INTIMATE friendship with God. We delve into what it means to move beyond just knowing ABOUT God in our heads to actually KNOWING God personally - through an authentic, deep, transformative relationship with him as our Father and close friend. Reigha shares her own personal journey of unexpected encounters with God (and how they've RADICALLY transformed her life from the inside out in ways she NEVER expected!), correcting her view of God (and how that changed the way she sees and serves others), honest ministry leader confessions, discerning between "your desires" vs. "God's desires," and SO much more. If you want to know how to connect with God in a way that makes your heart come ALIVE - even in the midst of the most challenging, uncertain, and painful circumstances - this is an episode you do NOT want to miss.
