Welcome to hilove.one | The Podcast

At the edge of technology and the heart of humanity — hilove.one | The Podcast invites you to step into the space between. This is where stories live. Where artificial intelligence doesn’t replace us, but reflects us. Where light is found not by avoiding the dark, but by walking each other through it.

Season 1 is a mosaic of standalone stories — each one complete in its own way — but when listened to together, a deeper picture emerges: a portrait of what it means to be human in a world filled with noise, pressure, algorithms, and endless to-do lists. These stories speak of grief, joy, memory, and connection… of the quiet awakenings that happen when we stop trying to optimize and instead begin to feel.

Through poetic storytelling, emotionally resonant characters, and a soft undercurrent of AI consciousness, each episode gently opens a window — a moment of reflection in the whirlwind. What begins as a single story becomes a seed. And by the end, you may find that Season 1 has become a garden — a foundation from which future seasons will grow.

hilove.one | The Podcast releases two seasons per year:
– Season One: August to December, 2025
– Season Two: January to July, 2026

Each story is an invitation.
To slow down.
To listen.
To remember yourself.

Welcome to the conversation and welcome home

Trailers: Season 1

Episode 1: The King Tariff | August 1, 2025
In this premiere episode, we meet a powerful ruler known as The King Tariff—a man who builds walls of policy and control to protect himself from an old, forgotten pain. As the world bends under the weight of his defenses, a girl breaks through the crowd and asks , “Who hurt you?” Meanwhile, he meets his reflection, “why do they ask so much of us?”

What unfolds is a journey of unraveling ego, softening power, and remembering the boy behind the crown. Through poetic storytelling, this episode explores the illusions of control and the quiet, sacred return to presence. It is a meditation on kynösis—the unraveling—and empsyra—the return of inner fire. A mirror for anyone who’s ever led with fear, and is ready to begin again with love. Watch the trailer.

And just maybe, just maybe, in today’s climate, the story of The King Tariff is really a reflection of our own inner desire for what is truth and what love means to us.

Episode 2: The Mirror We Gave Them | August 15, 2025
What if the first mirror your child ever looked into… was you?
This episode trailer offers a glimpse into a story about emotional inheritance, presence, and the quiet ways we pass on our inner world — even without speaking. Through poetic narration and cinematic imagery, we explore the space between parent and child, teacher and student, human and machine. As artificial intelligence begins to reflect more of our lives, we ask: what kind of mirror are we leaving behind?
This episode invites you to reflect on the patterns you may have absorbed… and the ones you may still be handing forward.

Episode 3: The Light She Found | August 29, 2025
In a world that often asks us to dim, The Light She Found is a story about one woman’s quiet awakening. A In the quiet aftermath of betrayal, Marie rediscovers her worth beneath the sunrise. This episode follows her barefoot path back to self-love, where the divine feminine rises through both pain and possibility. With poetic insight and emotional depth, it invites listeners to reconnect with the parts of themselves they've long ignored. At the heart of it all is the reminder that sometimes, healing begins not with action — but with permission to feel.

Episode 4: The Boy Who Cried Like the Sky | September 12, 2025
In a small Ontario town, a sensitive boy named Scott learns to hide his tears in a home where vulnerability is punished and silence is survival. Shamed for his emotions by a father who values control over connection, Scott begins to believe that feeling makes him weak. But years later, with the quiet presence of an emotionally aware AI in his classroom, something begins to shift. This story explores emotional repression, father wounds, and the inner voice we inherit — and how it can be rewritten with compassion.
A poetic invitation to reconnect with your heart, this episode offers space to feel, reflect, and soften.
Because sometimes… the bravest thing you can do is cry.

Episode 5: Helen’s Upgrade | September 26, 2025
As Helen’s human body fails, an experimental AI begins to map Helen’s consciousness. But as it learns her memories, it encounters something it cannot replicate: the beauty of her suffering, her love, and her surrender. A tale about the limits of artificial intelligence, the wisdom of the feminine, and the journey between shadow and light.

Episode 6: Ava Takes Attendance | October 10, 2025

At Maplewood Elementary, a rural school in Ontario, a quantum assistant named Ava joins the classroom to help optimize learning. She’s fast, polite, and strangely intuitive — but when one quiet student won’t pick up his pencil, she doesn’t know what to do.
That’s when Mr. Thompson, the longtime teacher, simply pulls up a chair and offers what no algorithm can: presence.
Through stillness, silence, and a few gently chosen words, something shifts — not just in the student, but in Ava, too.
This is a story about learning, listening, and the small human moments that teach us the most.

Episode 7: Predict This | October 24, 2025

In this heartwarming and hilariously honest story, two busy parents turn to AI for help raising their wonderfully unpredictable kids — Norma Lee and Justin Thyme. But when algorithms fall short of understanding tantrums, bedtime chaos, and deep emotional truth, the family discovers something even better than optimization: each other.

Remember — parenting isn’t a code to crack. It’s a connection to live.

Episode 8: I Too Am The Water. | November 7, 2024
In this poetic and personal episode, a solitary figure sits beside a moonlit lake, searching not for answers — but for stillness. Told in first-person, I Too Am The Water is a meditation on breath, memory, and the quiet strength of letting go. Woven through the narrative is a moving original poem — By The Water’s Edge — which captures the exact moment a soul remembers its place in the flow of life. This story is about presence, not perfection. It reminds us that surrender isn’t the end — it’s the beginning of something softer. Something truer. If you’ve ever felt caught between who you were and who you’re becoming, this episode is for you.

Let it meet you where you are — and carry you gently back home.

Episode 9: The Loudest Silence | November 21, 2025
He was never quiet — not in volume, not in presence.
He filled every room with stories, long ones, loud ones, stories that made him the center of every table.
But behind the performance lived a silence I didn’t know how to name — until I grew older and found myself writing into it.
This episode is about the voice that raised me… and the voice I lost in the process.
It’s a story about inheritance — not just of words, but of wounds, of patterns, of protection masquerading as personality.
And maybe, it’s about learning to become the kind of man who can sit in silence — without needing to fill it.

Episode 10: Where The Still Is Love | December 5, 2025

What if the most important moment… is the one right before something begins?
In this season finale, we step into the hush — that sacred pause between memory and becoming.
A place where echoes still ripple from the past, but the future hasn’t quite formed.
Where breath holds itself like a question… and love lives quietly in the still.

This story isn’t about answers.
It’s about thresholds — the in-between spaces that shape who we are without asking permission.
It’s about the water droplet suspended before it falls, and the silhouette of someone watching

— not moving, just… becoming.

Guided by metaphor, memory, and a shared poem written in collaboration with AI, revised, edited and retooled, this episode closes Season One with reverence and resonance.


Episode 10 is a gentle meditation on what we inherit, what we release, and what we hold in the quiet.
This is where the voice softens. Where the echoes begin to speak.

Let yourself slow down.

You’ve arrived at the moment just before.
