Fast Company just quoted me saying something controversial.

Fast Company just quoted me saying something controversial.

The piece captures something I see every day: people think it's either AI or human skills. 

It's not. The future belongs to those who combine both.

Grateful for being featured in their latest article on why AI skills have become the new gold standard for job seekers. (link to the full article incl podcast version in the comments)

AI skills matter because they are now central to how work gets done. But AI can't replace what truly differentiates us: listening, building relationships, making judgment calls.

When you master AI tools, you gain time and headspace to focus on what makes you irreplaceable.

In my own business, AI became my operational backbone: it analyzes feedback, tests messaging, prepares me for coaching sessions, optimized whole workflows. 

My proprietary AI coach helps my coaching clients between sessions.

But the human work, the listening, the connection, the meaning-making, that's what creates real value.

AI gave me speed and better quality. Human insight opened doors to bigger stages and leadership conversations.

That combination is what matters.

Thank you Fast Company and Featured for spotlighting this message. The conversation about AI and careers needs more nuance, not more fear.

How is AI changing your work?

PS: This was an editorial feature, not a paid placement. Just wanted to clarify since I'm seeing more coaches and consultants pay for media mentions lately.
