2025 was the year everyone jumped on AI.

2026 is when your actual strategy matters.

If you're still using ChatGPT to write captions and hoping for the best, we need to talk.

Episode Summary

- Why AI slop became the word of the year — and why your audience is clocking it

- The biggest mistake businesses made in 2025 (spoiler: trying to replace skilled humans with ChatGPT)

- How to articulate your AI edge so clients actually believe you know what you're doing

- What an AI operating system actually looks like (and why it's not just opening ChatGPT)

- The shift from lazy AI to strategic AI — from apps you open and close, to AI embedded in how you actually work

- Why highly skilled people with AI are becoming insanely valuable (and why mid-level talent is struggling)

- Brooke's 2026 move: doubling down on this podcast, building out the Dream Team Workshop, and staying known for strategic AI education (not chasing every shiny tool)

- Your actual to-do: audit how you're using AI right now — is it embedded or are you context-switching like mad?

Every time you default to ChatGPT, you're slowly eroding a skill you might actually need.

Here's what no one's saying about AI and how to use it without accidentally training yourself out of the abilities that make you valuable.

Episode Summary

- The real cost of outsourcing everything to AI (and why it's not controversial)

- What Peta from Professional Babe discovered when she banned AI from a brainstorming session

- Why reflexes are hard to override — and this is happening way faster than we realised

- Where I personally draws the line (and where I doesn't always get it right)

- AI literacy isn't about prompts — it's about knowing when NOT to use it Challenge for

This Week Next time you reach for ChatGPT or Claude, pause for a second.

Ask yourself: Am I using this because it's strategic, or because I'm avoiding the discomfort of thinking? You don't have to change anything yet. Just notice. Then define your own boundaries with AI before they define themselves for you.

Sick of the overwhelm? There's a new AI tool every five minutes, and you're drowning in "this changed my life" content. Real talk: most of them won't matter for your business, and some won't even exist in a year. So let's talk about what actually sticks.

Episode Summary

• The daily non-negotiables I'd notice if they disappeared tomorrow: ChatGPT, Claude, N8N, Notion, and Fathom
• Why Claude is better for coding and writing, and when ChatGPT still wins
• How N8N replaced Make for automation because debugging is 80% of the work
• The tools I've ditched or abandoned (and why it's totally okay to let things go)
• Your permission slip: you don't need to adopt every new tool. Just get really good at the ones that work

This Week's Not Another To-Do:

Do a quick tool audit. What are you actually using? What's collecting dust? What are you paying for that you forgot existed?
