    Humans, Humanity and AI taking your job with Leanne Shelton

    In this episode, I’m joined by the brilliant Leanne Shelton, copywriter turned global AI coach, to chat about all things AI and humanity. Leanne’s new book AI Human Fusion shares a non-techy, human-first approach to AI for busy leaders. And honestly, it’s exactly the conversation we need to be having right now if you've been feeling the "AI-ick" or making doomsday predictions of when it might take over. In our chat, Leanne and I dig into: Why AI doesn’t have to replace you (and how to make sure it doesn’t) How to train your AI like a new intern (context is everything!) The HABITS framework: Humans, AI, Business Integration, Tactical Strategy Leanne’s own career pivot from copywriting to global AI coaching Practical tips for using AI without losing your creativity or human connection What I loved most about this chat is Leanne’s refreshing reminder that AI should amplify us, not anchor or replace us. It’s about keeping our human brains sharp, our creativity alive, and using these tools in a way that actually makes work (and life!) easier. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, intimidated, or even a little bit sceptical about AI, this episode will give you a grounded, practical way forward. ✨ Pssssttt...

    Bold Moves, Dubai life, AND Inside the mind of a High Achieving People Pleaser with Dr Katherine Iscoe

    In this episode, I’m joined by my fabulous friend Dr Katherine Iscoe – leadership expert, speaker, board member, and (as she puts it) a recovering high-achieving people pleaser (HAPP) – all the way from her brand new home in Dubai. We chat about what it really takes to start again: ✨ Letting go of the imaginary critics ✨ Embracing the 20% of life that’s always going to feel frustrating ✨ And why ‘hope is not a strategy’ when you’re building the life you want to live Kat also shares with us a big, bold vision for herself, the reason behind her move to Dubai, and HOW she is going about making her dreams come true (yes, even with that high-achieving, people-pleaser in her ear).   If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Am I allowed to want something different?” – this one’s for you. Our careers, leadership (and lives) are like rollercoasters, and sometimes the bravest thing we can do is choose the next loop ourselves. I can’t wait for you to listen in on this conversation!  Resources & Links Connect with Dr Katherine Iscoe on LinkedIn and Instagram Check out more about Dr Iscoe on her website here  Want some more of Claire?

    Ever felt like your body and mind were working against you, right when you’re at the peak of your career? You’re not alone.

Suggestions on how to approach workplace conversations about perimenopause Simple strategies to support your body and mind through the transition How to reduce symptoms through targeted nutrition, movement, and stress management I know I learnt a HUGE amount from Dr Holland on this episode, and I am sure you will too.
