I Don't Think We're Ready for AI (But I'm Learning to Make Peace With It)The Future is Here Now. Driverless cars. Agentic AI. And Coming Soon: Robots. If you're anything like me, you've bounced between excitement, curiosity, denial... and maybe even a little fear. In this episode, I'm sharing what happened when I finally stopped pretending AI was just another tech trend and started accepting that we're living through one of the biggest shifts in human history. As a mom, entrepreneur, and someone building with AI every day, I'm wrestling with the same questions many of you are: What kind of world are our kids growing up in?Will AI replace our jobs?How do we stay hopeful without ignoring reality?And how do we actually enjoy life while everything seems to be changing so fast?This isn't a doom-and-gloom conversation. It's about finding peace in uncertainty, staying curious instead of fearful, and remembering that our humanity matters more than ever. If AI has ever made you excited, overwhelmed, or deeply curious, this episode is for you.
