Mollie Adler

Mollie Adler

Mollie Adler is the creator and host of Back from the Borderline, a globally acclaimed podcast that has redefined the narrative around psychological suffering, healing, and personal transformation. With millions of downloads and a ranking in the top 5-10% of podcasts globally, Mollie has built a platform where listeners can explore the raw, unfiltered aspects of human experience, embracing both the psychological and spiritual dimensions of self-discovery.

What sets Mollie apart is her unique ability to blend modern psychology with ancient wisdom and non-human intelligence. As an experiencer of non-human intelligence (NHI), Mollie has had encounters that have profoundly shaped her understanding of the human psyche and the world around us. Through her podcast, she seamlessly integrates her personal experiences with the numinous with deeper explorations into mysticism and depth psychology. This has allowed her to bridge the divide between traditional mental health paradigms and the evolving narratives surrounding NHI, offering listeners a more expansive and holistic understanding of reality. Her work is a powerful challenge to the confines of modern, diagnostic-driven approaches to psychology, which often neglect the soul’s capacity for growth through pain and transformation.

In addition to her podcast, Mollie has amassed a loyal following, including thousands of paying subscribers on Patreon and readers on Substack. She has been a featured guest on prominent platforms, including the official podcast of The Joseph Campbell Foundation, and will be a speaker at South by Southwest (SXSW) 2025. At SXSW, she will delve into the intersection of mental health, mysticism, and non-human intelligence, advocating for a worldview that embraces both the mysteries of the unseen and the scientific advancements of the modern age. Mollie’s approach is grounded in the belief that to truly heal, we must go beyond the binary and explore the complexities of our existence—both the human and the non-human, the scientific and the mystical.

Mollie’s podcast, Back from the Borderline, is an audio sanctuary, intentionally created to offer listeners a reprieve from the noise and distractions of the digital age. Choosing to remain audio-only, she rejects the visual fatigue of screen-dominated content, instead offering an immersive, intimate experience that allows her listeners to reconnect with themselves in a deeply personal way. This choice is informed by Mollie’s own experience in the music industry, where she reclaimed her voice after losing control of her creative work. Each episode of her podcast is self-produced, a reflection of her commitment to maintaining creative freedom and offering content that is truly her own.

With a voice that is both intellectual and compassionate, Mollie challenges the rigidity of modern mental health narratives and calls for a return to myth, story, and an expanded consciousness. She is committed to helping her listeners break free from the limitations imposed by a fragmented society - one that profits from division and categorization - and to embrace a more integrated, expansive view of the Self. Through her work, Mollie offers a unique perspective: a path that weaves together the wisdom of the ancients, the exploration of non-human intelligence, and the transformative power of the human psyche.

Whether speaking about the deep mysteries of non-human intelligence, mental health, or the need to reclaim myth and meaning in a rapidly changing world, Mollie Adler’s work provides a much-needed voice for those seeking to understand the world beyond the confines of conventional thinking. Her message is clear: healing, growth, and transformation are possible when we embrace the full spectrum of human experience - and when we dare to explore the unseen realms that shape our lives.
