AI isn't slowing down — it's accelerating. Reports warn that up to 50% of entry-level white-collar jobs could be replaced by AI agents and automation by 2030. So what does that mean for you, your career, and your future?
In this episode of The Journey, Morgan DeBaun breaks down what AI agents really are, why companies are shifting away from entry-level roles, and how you can future-proof your skills, income, and security.
Morgan shares:
-
Why CEOs are quietly replacing workers with AI
-
What AI agents actually do (and how they're evolving fast)
-
The risk for white-collar and knowledge workers in the next 5 years
-
Why "fractional work" and solopreneurship are becoming the new normal
-
How to position yourself inside your company to avoid layoffs
-
The timeless human skills AI can never replace
This is a real talk episode — both a warning and an invitation. You have time to prepare, adapt, and thrive if you act intentionally now.
👀 Don't just listen. Take action. Be the person who leads change, not the one left behind.
