    Are You Ready for the AI Career Shake-Up? Conversation with Nikki Smith

    Everyone's talking about AI replacing jobs, but what's actually happening out there for real people in real workplaces? In this episode, I'm chatting with career coach Nikki Smith, who works with people at career crossroads every single day. And here's the thing - the conversation went in directions I totally wasn't expecting!  We dive into why burnout is still lingering post-COVID, how portfolio careers are becoming the new normal, and why your "people strengths" might actually be your superpower in an AI-dominated world. Plus, Nikki shares the absolute game-changer approach she's teaching her teenage daughters about work that none of us learnt at school! If you're feeling exhausted at the thought of learning yet another new technology, frustrated with return-to-office mandates, or secretly wondering if it's time to explore something completely different - this conversation is for you. It's practical, hopeful, and refreshingly honest about the messiness of modern work life. What You'll Learn: Why people are still running on a deficit from COVID (hint: it's not just in your head!)The portfolio career revolution - and why Nikki's coaching almost everyone towards this nowHow to make AI work for you instead of replacing you (spoiler: start with the tasks you hate!)Why "outcomes over hours" might be the key to reclaiming your lifeThe human strengths that AI can't touch (empathy, connection, creativity - your time to shine!)Strategic effort: teaching our kids (and ourselves) that we don't need to excel at everythingHow to find the good in a "bridge role" when your industry gets disruptedResources Mentioned: I’ve recommend Nikki to loads of friends, and family and members in my programs over the years. She’s brilliant at what she does. And I love that she’s doubling down on helping people uncover their strengths and design a role or portfolio career that works for them.  This is her FREE portfolio career masterclass   And a link to have a FREE 15 minute chat with Nikki to explore what is possible for you.

    When You're Overwhelmed by the World - A Conversation on Ethics with Dr Simon Longstaff

    How do you engage with big issues like AI and climate change when you're just trying to keep everyone fed and functional? In this conversation with philosopher Dr. Simon Longstaff, Executive Director of The Ethics Centre, I got answers that actually helped. Simon makes ethics accessible and practical. He gave me permission to let go of trying to be ethically perfect (spoiler: it's impossible) and reminded me that small gestures - falling "just a little bit on the right side" over and over - can shift the world on its axis. We talked about navigating "right vs right" dilemmas, what makes us distinctively human that AI can't replace, what skills our kids actually need, and why breaking patterns of "unthinking custom and practice" matters more than we realise. You're going to love this conversation. Key Quotes: "The real threat to us engaging in the world is not that we are powerless, but rather that we believe ourselves to be." "Ethical perfection is not possible. Therefore you are liberated in some sense from thinking that that's what's required of you." "Your heroism doesn't need to amount to the lofty gesture, but it can be in that area of just falling on the right side." "Demand and offer the best reasons. Never accept things simply because everyone's doing it or it's always been done that way."

    Lisa Bytes: The Power of Story

    You know that feeling when you're scrolling through social media and everything starts to look... the same? AI-generated captions, templated posts, marketing formulas that feel about as authentic as a plastic rose? Yeah, me too. And it's exactly why I'm on my soapbox today about something I'm ridiculously passionate about: the absolute game-changing power of storytelling. In this Lisa Bytes episode, I'm sharing why story isn't just nice-to-have content filler - it's the secret weapon that cuts through all the noise, especially in this age of AI everything. Plus, I'm getting real about my own journey from trying to outsource my voice (spoiler: epic fail) to discovering that being authentically me is actually what people want to hear. What You'll Learn: Why AI content is making everyone sound like robots - and how real stories are your antidoteThe moment I realised my audience could smell outsourced content from a mile awayHow I found the golden thread for this entire podcast season (thanks, Nick!)Why "What's the Story?" became one of my most successful programsThe contrarian marketing approach that's about to change everythingHow storytelling works in literally every area of life (yes, even parenting!)Resources Mentioned: "What's the Story?" program "Grief Notes" - 30 days of audio supportRyan Levesque's newsletter on contrarian marketingConnect With Lisa: Join the storytelling waitlist: https://lisacorduff.com/whatsthestory/Instagram: @lisacorduffWebsite: www.lisacorduff.comContinue your conversation with Lisa on Substack Know someone who would love this episode?
