    AI Isn't Going Anywhere. What Do You Need to Know?

    AI is everywhere right now, but are we using it the right way? In this episode, I sit down with web developer, SEO expert, and longtime Leading Lady Ambassador Chrissy Rey to have an honest conversation about what AI can and cannot do for business owners. We explore why AI should be viewed as a tool rather than a replacement for human creativity, the biggest mistakes entrepreneurs make when using it, and how to avoid creating content that feels robotic, generic, or disconnected from your authentic voice.   Topics covered in this episode include: Why some people love AI while others want nothing to do with it The biggest mistake business owners make when using AI How to train AI so it actually sounds like you The surprising way AI can create information that never existed Why publishing AI content without editing can hurt your business How AI can become a powerful thinking partner instead of just a writing tool What AI reveals about your messaging when it's completely wrong How SEO and AI are becoming more connected than most people realize   If you've been wondering how AI fits into your business, this episode is a practical place to start!

    Marketing When YOU are the Face of Your Business with Heidi Schmidt

    This episode will completely change the way you think about showing up online as the face of your brand. In this conversation, I sit down with marketing expert Heidi Schmidt to unpack the real, unfiltered truth about what it actually takes to market yourself in a way that feels authentic, sustainable, and effective. We dive into the tension between being the brand and still maintaining your identity, why authenticity builds deeper connection than constant promotion, and how to balance visibility with personal boundaries in a world that often rewards oversharing.   Topics covered in this episode include: Why being "the face of your brand" is more nuanced than it seems The subtle difference between connection and oversharing What your audience is actually looking for when they follow you   If this conversation speaks to you, I want you to take one small step today toward showing up more intentionally in your business. Whether that's refining your message, choosing the platform that feels aligned, or simply giving yourself permission to not do everything, it all matters.
