    You went looking for freedom and somehow inherited every job at once, and the tired is starting to feel like the kind you cannot sleep off. This one is for the entrepreneur wearing all the hats who wants to keep the business running without burning themselves down with it. Amanda Kaufman is the founder of Clairvenu, a former corporate consultant turned entrepreneur, and a coach who helps service-based business owners build businesses that actually work. In this episode she flips the mic to become the guest, sitting down with guest host Rebecca Kaufman to talk about burnout in the honest, unpolished way it deserves: why retreating rarely restores you, and the emotional and practical habits that keep you steady when everything is on fire.

    How AI Can Become Your Yes Man and How to Avoid It

    Your AI thinks every idea you have is brilliant. That is exactly the problem. This one is for the business owner using ChatGPT or Claude every day and quietly wondering why all that agreement is not turning into growth. Amanda Kaufman is the founder of Clairvenu, a former corporate consultant turned entrepreneur, and a coach who helps service-based business owners build businesses that actually work. In this episode she flips the mic and becomes the guest, sitting down with guest host Rebecca Kaufman to expose the yes-man trap: why AI is engineered to agree with you, what that costs your business, and how to turn the world's most agreeable tool into a real thinking partner. In this episode, you will learn: 🤖 Why the yes-man problem is built into how large language models are designed, and how the conversation's direction slips out of your control 😤 The counterintuitive tip Amanda picked up from AI insiders: why expressing dissatisfaction gets you better output 🪞 How AI becomes an echo chamber of your own ideas, just like social media, and why complacency is the real danger 🚫 Why prompting AI to "be blunt" just gives you a brasher yes man, and the "ask me 10 questions" move that actually works 🎭 How casting AI in a role, like a world-class copywriter, turned Amanda's vanilla ad scripts into something sharp 🔁 The feedback-loop story: how one entrepreneur went from no social presence to reels with millions of views by partnering with AI on a goal 🧮 How to use AI as a thought partner on your real business data, and why business is complex math, not simple arithmetic CONNECT WITH AMANDA KAUFMAN 🌐 Website: clairvenu.com 💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amandackaufman/ 📸 Instagram: @theamandakaufman or https://www.instagram.com/theamandakaufman 👍 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ChatwithAmandaKaufman/ ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theamandakaufmanshow  Ready to go deeper?
