If you’ve ever felt like AI wasn’t for you — maybe it felt too technical, too cold, or just not built with your life in mind — this episode is here to gently blow that belief out of the water.

In this conversation, I’m joined by AI coach and consultant Shawn Every, who shares her powerful story of reinvention after chronic illness — and how she now helps other women, especially those often left out of tech, use AI tools to support their lives, businesses, and mental health.

We talk about the emotional side of using AI, from daily mindset support to parenting conversations — and how these tools can genuinely be a lifeline for folks navigating invisible challenges.

🎧 Press play to hear:

✸ How AI tools helped Shawn rebuild her confidence and career after chronic illness

✸ Why she calls ChatGPT her “AI bestie” (and uses it as a therapist, cheerleader, and co-strategist)

✸ What people get wrong about AI as a “shortcut” — and why it’s actually an equalizer

✸ How to use AI for emotional regulation, tough conversations, and support during flare-ups

✸ Tips to help neurodivergent, disabled, or overwhelmed entrepreneurs get started with AI tools

This episode is part pep talk, part practical guide — and a beautiful reminder that AI isn’t just about productivity. It can be about healing, too.

Let’s be real — AI isn’t just a “tool” anymore. It’s an entire shift in how we communicate, create, and connect.

And if you’re building a brand you actually care about? That can feel a little… overwhelming.

In this episode, I’m joined by the brilliant Mike Allton — Chief Storyteller at Agorapulse and longtime solopreneur — for a super juicy convo about how AI is changing the landscape for marketers, creators, and founders (for better and worse).

We talk about training AI tools to actually sound like you, building internal GPTs for your business, and how to use this tech to amplify your voice — not replace it.

🎧 Hit play to hear:

✸ How to repurpose podcast interviews into high-performing content

✸ What most people get wrong about ChatGPT (and how to fix it)

✸ Mike’s custom GPT workflows for writing, storytelling, and sales support

✸ Why brand story is the key to using AI without sounding generic

✸ How to train your AI assistant like a true team member

✸ What “AI as electricity” really means for the future of work

This one’s for the founders who care about their voice, their people, and their brand. If you’ve ever felt weird about using AI, this convo will help you rethink what’s possible — without losing your human touch.

This is one of the most important convos I’ve had on the pod.

In this episode, Maya Stojkovich and I dive into the real impact AI has on the environment — what’s hype, what’s true, and how to stay grounded in action instead of spiraling in overwhelm.

We talk about the politics, the power structures, the greenwashing…and how AI might actually help us fix some of the problems it’s contributing to.

Hit Play Now To Hear:

✸ Why blaming AI users misses the bigger picture of climate impact

✸ How water, minerals, and energy intersect in the AI boom

✸ The myth of the all-powerful “individual” in climate action — and what really works

✸ Ways to use AI more consciously without ditching it altogether

✸ How to get involved in advocacy (yes, even if you hate calling your reps)

This one’s spicy, hopeful, and clarifying — especially if you’re a values-driven founder who cares deeply about people and the planet.
