Mollie Adler

Mollie Adler

Mollie Adler is the creator and host of the podcast Back From The Borderline, a podcast exploring psychology, philosophy, culture, and the evolving landscape of human consciousness.

Through long-form audio essays and investigations, her work examines the intersection of mental health systems, depth psychology, spirituality, artificial intelligence, and the search for meaning in the digital age.

Her independent platform has grown into one of the most engaged creator-supported communities in podcasting, with:

• 5k+ Patreon members
• a global podcast ranking in the top 0.5% (Listen Notes)
• hundreds of long-form episodes exploring the psychology of modern life

Rather than presenting definitive answers, Adler documents an ongoing intellectual journey — investigating how individuals make meaning in a world shaped by collapsing institutions, emerging technologies, and shifting psychological frameworks.

Her work blends:

• depth psychology
• philosophy
• cultural criticism
• mysticism and symbolic systems
• technological analysis

Adler is also the founder of MOODS, a new category of reflective software designed as a symbolic interface for the psyche. The platform allows users to explore their inner world through structured dialogue with archetypal intelligences, transforming AI from an answer machine into a meaning engine.

She has spoken at South by Southwest (SXSW) on the intersection of artificial intelligence and consciousness, and her work has been featured in outlets including Novara Media.

Adler frequently speaks about:

• Artificial intelligence and consciousness
• The psychological impact of emerging technologies
• The failures of the biomedical model of mental health
• Depth psychology and archetypal systems
• Cultural power structures and institutional narratives

Adler welcomes invitations for podcast interviews, conference talks, panels, and media collaborations.

Je porte la conviction que l’être humain est naturellement enclin au travail bien fait, à la coopération et à la croissance — à condition d’évoluer dans un environnement qui nourrit son propre écosystème autant que celui qui l’entoure, qu’il soit social ou environnemental.
Je défends l’idée que l’humain ne doit jamais être une variable d’ajustement dans nos organisations, mais un véritable moteur de développement. Chaque collaborateur mérite d’être considéré comme un être en devenir, et non comme un simple rouage productif.

Docteur en cristallographie, j’ai construit mon parcours au sein de grands groupes pharmaceutiques, où j’ai contribué au développement scientifique et organisationnel en tant que manager d’équipe puis Transformation Leader.
J’ai accompagné de nombreuses équipes dans leur transition vers des pratiques managériales plus inclusives, délégatives et vertueuses.

Chez Sanofi, j’ai animé pendant plusieurs années le Management Lab, un espace d’exploration et d’apprentissage dédié aux pratiques managériales innovantes, notamment au travers d’ateliers immersifs. J’y ai également fondé la ludothèque interne, aujourd’hui riche de plus de 400 jeux d’édition.

Pour approfondir ma compréhension de l’humain et des dynamiques collectives, j’ai suivi une formation exigeante de 18 mois (JBS Lyon – Coach&Team) en coaching individuel, d’équipe et d’organisation, intégrant la sociologie, la psychologie humaniste et l’analyse transactionnelle. Je suis par ailleurs accrédité aux outils psychométriques MBTI et Process Com.

Co‑créateur du jeu professionnel Les Aventuriers de la Draille®, Facilitateur Chaos Fertile® et Ambassadeur Burni Bornes®, je conçois également des jeux d’édition sur mon temps personnel.

Enfin, je pratique l’Aïkido depuis l’âge de 6 ans et la méditation de pleine conscience depuis dix ans, deux disciplines qui nourrissent profondément ma vision du leadership, du jeu et de la relation à soi et à l’autre.
