You might think it's saving you time, but what's AI costing you and your business? 

“When I see a post from friends or colleagues that screams, 'AI WROTE THIS,' I scroll right by. You might think it’s saving you time, but it’s causing you to lose a member of your audience. I want more of you and your authentic voice. Not the voice of a tool you’ve outsourced your talent and transmissions to.” -Anjel Hartwell 

I'm back with more AI talk! This time, I'm not looking on the bright side like I did in my episode on Creative Ways to Use AI in your business... 

This time I'm sharing some of the dark side(s) of AI. Cause what's a spooky month without some truly horrific findings, amiright? 

In this episode, we're looking at energy expenditure, the tradeoffs to outsourcing our brilliance to AI, and whether or not these tools that are making business "easier" are really worth it. 

Listen to hear: 

  • Is using AI outsourcing our brilliance? 
  • What are the energy costs associated with AI, and what role do we play in the overall environmental impact? 
  • What are the privacy/safety concerns when using AI? 
  • What creative/copywriting risks do we run with AI? 
  • Does it really save time? 
  • How do we as business owners draw the line for ourselves? 
  • And so much more?

Are You A Charlotte?

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.
