🎙 Is AI Better at Being Human Than We Are? 🤯
Why is it so hard to have conversations with people who fundamentally disagree with us?
If you're like me, it can make you anxious and stressed. But at the same time, maybe you actually DO want to understand how and why someone feels the way they do. Because you care about them...but...
Maybe you're absolutely baffled at their world viewpoint. How and why do they feel the way they do??
Especially now...
So maybe you've tried to have a thoughtful conversation online, only to watch it turn into a dumpster fire of misunderstandings, personal attacks, and outrage. No fun.
We all like to think we’re open-minded, but the truth is, most people struggle to engage in real conversations about the things that actually matter—politics, social issues, values. The second emotions get involved, things go sideways.
💡 But what if AI could help?
I honestly feel it can. It has, for me...
In this episode, I explain how a wild idea: AI might actually be better at guiding nuanced, meaningful conversations than we are. Not because it’s smarter, but because it doesn’t get defensive, emotional, or shut people down. Humans, right now in history, lack the leadership, communication and emotional stamina for what's needed when trying to resolve issues that involve a lot of complexity. We just haven't been built for it, and now we must lean into it. I think AI can help us.
In this episode I dive into:
✔ Why we’re losing the ability to handle complex conversations
✔ How social media has rewired our brains to crave outrage
✔ A simple way to use AI to explore perspectives you disagree with—without the usual emotional minefield
✔ How AI can teach us to listen, think, and communicate more effectively
🎧 If you’ve ever found yourself wondering, Why can’t people just talk to each other anymore?—this episode is for you.
I hope you like this.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
