The Hidden Cost of Saving Time with AI: How to Avoid "Smoothout" Before You Lose Your Critical Thinking Skills
06/07/2026 | 17 mins.
Ever notice how the second something feels hard, you reach for AI instead of working through it yourself? This week, I'm digging into a brand new term, "Smoothout," coined by journalist Ellen Scott to describe what happens when we hand over every challenge to AI and slowly lose our edge. I uncover why our brains actually crave friction, why that's a good thing, and where the line is between using AI as a smart shortcut and using it to avoid skills we still need. This isn't about quitting AI. It's about staying intentional with what you hand over, and what you hold onto.

The Secret Ingredient That Might be Missing from Your Work-Life Balance ft. Maddie Hamann, co-founder of PACHA
29/06/2026 | 49 mins.
Ever feel like you're building something meaningful with no village in sight? In this episode, I sit down with Maddie Hamann, co-founder of PACHA, to talk about life as a mission-driven entrepreneur and mom. I uncover what it really looks like to build a regenerative food company while raising a daughter, and why community isn't optional when you're doing both. Maddie shares how she left a career in Earth Science for a slower, intentional pivot into entrepreneurship, and what it means to lean on a literal village instead of doing it all alone.

Have you ever felt so overwhelmed that you couldn't even imagine what your life would look like on the other side of it? In this episode, I share five real stories of women who felt exactly that stuck, and what actually changed for them. You'll hear how a packed calendar turned into time for a hobby again, how scattered to-do lists turned into a sold home, and how mom guilt gave way to real clarity. None of them started by fixing their calendar first. I reveal the one step that came before all of it, and why you can't see the other side of overwhelm from inside it.
