In this episode of The AI Transition, Christiane and Stephen explore what happens when your career – and your identity – hit a workquake.
They kick off with two striking AI stories:
🐬 Dolphin Talk on Android – Google and Georgia Tech unveil a real-time AI system enabling interspecies communication. Is your cat about to unionise?
🧠 IQ 136 AI Models – OpenAI and Google launch their most powerful systems yet. But while the headlines are quiet, the implications for jobs, identity, and worth are massive.
Then it’s time to go deep. Drawing from Bruce Feiler’s The Search, they unpack the first three questions of a Meaning Audit:
Who is your Who?
What is your What?
When is your When?
With personal stories, laugh-out-loud moments, and practical coaching insights, this episode invites you to reflect on your work identity, your role models, and your readiness for change.
💡 Whether you're feeling stuck, inspired, or somewhere in between, this episode will help you navigate your own transition with more clarity and courage.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
