How Frequency, Sacred Geometry, and a Love for Bees Are Inspiring Hope
Share
Some conversations leave you with more than new information. They leave you seeing the world with a little more wonder.
That is exactly what happened when Seth Holehouse, host of Man in America, welcomed 4RBEES founder Brent Knudsen for a conversation about bees, frequency, sacred geometry, and the extraordinary intelligence woven throughout nature.
Seth has built Man in America around meaningful conversations that help people stay grounded, informed, and connected to what truly matters. From the beginning, it was clear that this interview aligned beautifully with that purpose.
“These are always the best interviews,” Seth shared. “My podcast is mission first.”
That shared commitment to creating a better future set the tone for a conversation filled with curiosity, discovery, and hope.
A Journey That Began With Mathematics
Brent’s path to the bees began in an unexpected place.
His background was in forensic mathematics and financial technology, where he worked with complex algorithms. As he studied patterns and mathematical structures, he began recognizing the same geometric forms appearing again and again.
They were present in snowflakes, spiderwebs, flowers, stained-glass windows, ancient architecture, and even the earliest stages of cellular development.
Many people know these patterns as sacred geometry. Brent describes them in a very understandable way: they are the structures of nature.
His fascination grew into a years-long exploration of how geometry, magnetism, and frequency interact. He eventually created a research lab where he could study these relationships more closely.
Then, in 2015, Brent was encouraged to explore how his work might support honeybees.
The results gave his research an entirely new purpose.
When Research Became a Mission
Brent began working with beekeepers to observe what happened when his magnetic technology was placed inside their hives.
The PureWave Cell was created using 12 powerful neodymium magnets arranged in a precise geometric pattern. Together, they form an omnidirectional magnetic field extending approximately 12 inches around the Cell. It requires no electricity, batteries, or ongoing maintenance.
During the interview, Seth watched footage showing the magnetic field and immediately recognized what made the PureWave Cell different from other products he had encountered.
“I think this is what separates this from anything else that I’ve seen,” he said.
He was equally fascinated by the beekeeper footage.
In one apiary, 30 hives equipped with the PureWave Cell came through the winter alive and overflowing with bees. The colonies became so abundant that many of the hives needed to be split to give the growing bee populations more room.
Seth paused to make sure he fully understood what he had just seen. The PureWave hives had experienced remarkable survival and growth, with the Cell being the key difference between the groups.
That early work grew into a three-year peer-reviewed study led by Dr. Magda Havas. The research documented higher overwinter survival, increased honey production, fewer queen replacements, and calmer behavior in the PureWave hives.
For Seth, the ability to observe these results in living colonies was especially meaningful.
“I’ve never seen something where people have done these types of controlled studies,” he said, adding that bees are one of the most powerful ways to observe how an environment influences a living organism.
Supporting the Beekeepers Who Care for Our Bees
Once Brent saw what was happening inside the hives, he knew the technology needed to reach the people caring for the bees every day.
That realization became 4RBEES, a mission-based company dedicated to supporting bees, beekeepers, and the environments we all share.
Rather than selling the technology to participating research beekeepers, 4RBEES provides PureWave Cells to them through its global Beekeeper Program at no cost. These beekeepers place a Cell in one hive while maintaining a comparable control hive, then share regular observations and video updates.
This growing community now reaches across the United States and around the world.
For Brent, the mission is rooted in a simple truth: when we support beekeepers, we support the bees. When we support the bees, we strengthen the natural systems that nourish all life.
As one beekeeper beautifully expressed during the interview:
“We need to save our bees because they’re going to save our babies.”
The Joy of Working With Nature
One of the most personal moments in the conversation came when Seth shared what life is like for his own family.
After living in New York City for nearly a decade, Seth and his wife moved to a seven-acre property surrounded by forest. Their two young daughters are homeschooled and spend their days outside in every season, exploring, gardening, playing with animals, and experiencing nature firsthand.
Seth described how even a short walk through the woods can restore a sense of peace and energy after hours spent working with technology.
Brent understood that feeling immediately.
His work is built around the idea that nature has an intelligence and an order of its own. When we begin observing its patterns and living in greater harmony with them, we open ourselves to a deeper sense of connection.
“The moment we start working with nature, life becomes a dream,” Brent shared.
Seth also recognized that Brent personally reflects the vitality and purpose behind his work. When Brent revealed that he was 70 years old, Seth was genuinely surprised.
“You are a perfect model of health for a guy who’s 70,” he told him.
Brent credited his energy to living close to nature, caring for his health, surrounding himself with supportive environments, and having a purpose that brings him joy every day.
A Conversation That Left Viewers Feeling Hopeful
The warmth and wonder of the interview reached far beyond the conversation between Seth and Brent. Viewers filled the comments with messages about how the episode made them feel.
“Thank you for a solution-based interview! I’m feeling hopeful,” one viewer wrote.
Another called it one of the best interviews she had seen and shared how Brent’s “radiance and pure joy” inspired her to create a larger garden filled with vegetables and flowers for pollinators.
She wrote about the joy of sitting in the garden and watching hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees at work, adding, “My gardens are buzzing!”
One PureWave Cell owner summed up the feeling in a few unforgettable words:
“It’s like it just hums happiness.”
That may be the most fitting description of this entire conversation.
It was filled with happiness, possibility, and a renewed appreciation for the living world around us.
Purpose Has a Frequency of Its Own
Near the end of the interview, Seth told Brent that these are his favorite kinds of conversations: opportunities to meet intelligent people who have applied their gifts to creating something that can better the world.
He thanked Brent for the work he has done and expressed his desire to help carry the 4RBEES mission forward.
Brent’s response brought the entire conversation back to where it began: joy.
The joy of discovery.
The joy of seeing healthier hives.
The joy of hearing from people whose lives have been touched by the work.
The joy of recognizing the incredible intelligence present throughout creation.
“It gives you shivers up your back as to how amazing this world is,” Brent said. “And I love every minute of it.”
“Me too,” Seth replied.
Through research, education, community, and a deep respect for nature, 4RBEES is helping people rediscover just how connected we truly are.
One environment. One mission. One future.
