Are You Using AI As A Coach, Or An Accomplice?

AI is everywhere, but what happens when you stop using it to save time and start using it to make decisions for you?

In this episode, Shelley explores the growing trend of using AI as a coach, sounding board or source of reassurance. She explains why a confident, coherent response isn’t necessarily the same as a useful answer, and why trusting yourself still matters.

You’ll hear Shelley:

Recognise when you’re using AI to support your thinking versus outsourcing your judgementUse AI to identify patterns, challenge assumptions and prepare for difficult conversationsQuestion whether you’re asking AI for information, perspective, reassurance, permission or a decision

AI can be an incredible tool. But it only knows the version of you that you put into the box. It doesn’t live with the consequences, and it doesn’t get to decide your life.

The question is: are you asking AI to help you think differently, or asking it to take responsibility for what you do next?

Listen now, and remember: she is courageous, and she is you.
