The Illusion of Control

In the old world of work, we had the 'hallway effect.' You could lean into an office, grab a coffee, or use the weight of your title to move a project forward. But it’s 2026. Your team is spread acrosstime zones, half the cameras are off in the meeting, and you have no formalauthority over the people you need.

How do you get a 'Yes' when you can't give an order?

Today, we’re talking about Soft Power.It’s the art of influence without authority. If you’ve ever felt stuck because you’re waiting for a manager’s sign-off or struggling to get a cross-functional peer to prioritize your task, this episode is for you. Let’s talk about how to lead from the middle.

In a world where headlines are often dominated by the drums of war, a quiet revolution is taking place in how we end them. This week, we dive into the profound shift from "Military Victory" to "Sustainable Peace." We explore why 20th-century peace treaties often failed and how the 21st century is rewriting the playbook by focusing on human security, inclusive governance, and the "Social Fabric."

• But the real game-changer? Technology. We examine the rise of Peace Tech—from satellite constellations that act as digital peacekeepers to blockchain systems that secure land rights for refugees. Join us as we discuss how data, AI, and global connectivity are becoming our most powerful weapons in the fight to make peace permanent.

The Path Forward

The lesson of 2025 is clear: Peace is a process, not an event. By integrating AI accountability, blockchain transparency, and satellite truth, we are building a world where the "social fabric" is stronger than the weapons meant to tear it apart.

"Security can be imposed through force, but sustainable peace demands the protection of rights and the flourishing of freedoms through transparent innovation."

Host: Vision Navigator with Julia Karmaz Larsen

Have you ever faced a betrayal—in business, friendship, or a personal relationship—that felt like it collapsed your entire internal world? You’re not alone.

In this powerful episode, Vision Navigator Julia Karmaz Larsen tackles the pain of deceit head-on, offering a strategic roadmap to not just survive betrayal, but to truly win the aftermath.

Julia dissects the unique wounds of betrayal across the three main arenas of life:

• The pragmatic loss in business partnerships.

• The soul-shaking collapse of trust in personal relationships.

Discover the fundamental principles you must adopt to emerge as a victor:

• How to stay firm on your core values when everything else is shaking.

• Why you must transform your circles, not yourself.

• The superior power of kindness over manipulation and emotional violence.

This is a masterclass in resilience and self-alignment. Learn how to step aside, re-estimate the damage, and remain fundamentally firm in your truth. Stop letting betrayal define your future. Re-balance, re-align, and discover the confidence to attract the right people into your life.

Tune in and turn your deepest pain into your greatest point of power.
