On this episode of "So You’re Living in a Simulation," Joli delves into the concept of luck, emphasizing that it’s not merely random chance but something that can be actively influenced.

She draws on the analogy of fishing to explain how people can "catch" luck, comparing it to hunting or preparing for low-probability events that lead to success. Luck isn’t just about being in the right place at the right time; it’s about positioning yourself in the right places often enough that when a lucky break happens, you’re ready to seize it.

Joli encourages listeners to think of their work—whether it's art, a product, or a service—as seeds. The more seeds you plant, the more opportunities you create for them to grow into success. She stresses the importance of diversifying efforts, networking, and consistently putting yourself out there to increase your visibility.

By being proactive, prepared, and strategic, you can turn low-probability events into opportunities that feel like luck.

The episode also touches on how randomness follows patterns we may not always perceive, connecting this to the simulation theory.

Joli reminds her audience to take care of their health and well-being, as physical and mental stamina are essential when opportunities arise.

**In this thought-provoking episode of the "So You’re Living in a Simulation" Podcast, Joli explores the relationship between memory, consciousness, and the multiverse.**

Starting with the challenges of memory retention, particularly for those with ADHD, Joli suggests that our minds often resurface irrelevant or painful memories without benefit. But what if we could selectively forget those who’ve caused us harm?

She proposes a radical approach to memory: consciously editing past experiences by imagining different outcomes in parallel realities. By doing this, Joli argues, we can reframe our narratives and change our futures.

Throughout the episode, she discusses how looping positive memories, rather than traumatic ones, can help shift our mindsets. She also cautions against becoming trapped in victimhood by reliving past trauma and advocates for using memory editing as a tool for personal growth.

Drawing parallels to video editing, Joli encourages listeners to actively "cut out" the negative parts of their stories that no longer serve them.

Using anecdotes, she highlights how reframing can even influence our physical and emotional states. The episode concludes with a powerful metaphor: just as actors can be left on the editing floor, so too can people and memories that don’t deserve a role in your life’s narrative.

In this thought-provoking episode of "So You’re Living in a Simulation," Joli challenges conventional wisdom about money, success, and societal programming. She explores the concept of money as a ubiquitous resource and questions the deeply ingrained belief that hard work always leads to wealth.

Joli delves into the psychology of fear, encouraging listeners to transform their mindset from one of scarcity to abundance. She discusses the idea of "eating" or benefiting from challenging situations, drawing parallels between sociopathic behavior in business and survival instincts.

Throughout the episode, Joli urges her audience to break free from societal conditioning, rethink their approach to security and opportunity, and embrace a more empowered perspective on life and success.

On this episode of “Your One Black Friend” Podcast, Joli delves into the profound concepts of time, consciousness, and parallel universes.

She begins by questioning the limitations imposed by our understanding of time travel, proposing that the notion of causality and past events might be challenged by the existence of parallel universes. Joli argues that while traditional physics suggests time travel to the past could violate fundamental laws, the existence of parallel realities offers a way around these constraints.

Joli then explores the idea of immortality from a fourth-dimensional perspective, suggesting that our consciousness exists across multiple points in space-time. She explains that when we learn or grow, we are effectively "dying" and transitioning to a new variant of ourselves in this continuous journey through time. This shifting consciousness means that even if one version of ourselves dies, other variants in different timelines or realities persist.

The discussion further expands into the concept of quantum immortality, which posits that consciousness cannot truly die but instead continues in parallel universes where one survives potentially fatal events. Joli emphasizes that this idea supports the notion that no consciousness truly experiences death; it merely transitions to other states of existence.

Joli concludes by reflecting on the limitations of current technology, which prevents us from interacting with past or parallel versions of loved ones. She suggests that, despite this, the essence of our being—our consciousness—continues to exist throughout all of space-time. She envisions a future where technology could one day track and interact with these different states of being, reinforcing the idea that we are more expansive and eternal than the linear perception of life and death might suggest.

On this episode of “Your One Black Friend” Podcast, Joli begins by recounting a conversation with her editor Allwin, who expressed existential concerns about aging, suffering, and the cycle of life and death.

Joli challenges conventional views on death, suggesting it may be an illusion rooted in societal conditioning (rather than an absolute end.) She proposes that our fear of death stems from a limited understanding of consciousness and reality.

Drawing on various philosophical and scientific concepts, Joli presents alternative perspectives on the continuity of consciousness beyond physical death.

Joli delves into topics such as simulation theory, reincarnation, and the cyclical nature of existence. She then explores ideas about the relationship between masculine and feminine energies, the fall of Matriarchy and shift to Patriarchy (from moon to sun worship,) and offers a speculative narrative about the origins of gender and civilization spanning Mars, Venus, and Earth.

Throughout the episode, Joli encourages listeners to question mainstream beliefs about aging, mortality, and the nature of reality. She emphasizes the power of individual belief systems in shaping one's experience of life and suggests that embracing alternative perspectives can lead to a more fulfilling and less fearful existence.

Joli concludes by advocating for personal exploration of these existential questions, urging listeners to develop their own philosophies and beliefs to navigate life's challenges. She presents her ideas as possibilities to consider rather than absolute truths, inviting the audience to engage in deeper contemplation about existence.
