Stop Avoiding, Start Aligning: Your AI Leadership Journey
11 Jun 2025
Send us a textEver felt that twinge of embarrassment when someone mentions AI and you're not sure what they're talking about? You're not alone. As I reveal in this episode, the number one reason smart professionals avoid artificial intelligence isn't technical complexity—it's shame. That feeling that you should already understand it, or that you're too far behind to catch up.Let's banish that shame together. I'm tackling the recent headlines about ChatGPT storing conversations even after deletion, explaining what's really happening behind the sensational stories. You'll learn exactly how to control your data privacy settings and understand the difference between personalization features and privacy breaches. This isn't about surrendering control; it's about gaining clarity.The fear of AI has deep neurological roots. When we encounter unfamiliar technology, our amygdala—the brain's alarm system—activates to protect us. The solution isn't avoiding AI but creating intentional exposure that transforms it from a perceived threat into a recognized tool. Remember how GPS navigation or email once felt overwhelming? AI follows the same adoption curve.Most importantly, I'm sharing practical ways to start using AI today, regardless of your technical background. Try this: ask ChatGPT to be your "time management virtual assistant" and create a content calendar specifically for your profession. Watch how this simple prompt delivers immediate value without requiring you to understand the technology behind it. AI isn't meant to be a task manager—it's a thinking partner that reveals your brilliance rather than replaces it.What's one task you hate doing that AI could handle? What conversation could you lead differently with AI support? Who might you become if you stopped trying to catch up and simply started?
