Tech overwhelm. Robot apocalypse fears. It’s everywhere in our industry at the moment - people are either terrified that AI is going to steal their job or frantically trying to jump on every new tech bandwagon. Yep, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by the relentless wave of technology.

If that’s you, today's episode is going to flip how you think about AI and show you the possibilities it has for you and your business. I sat down with the incredible Leanne Shelton, author of AI Human Fusion, and let me tell you - this conversation is a game-changer for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the tech tsunami.

Leanne's done something remarkable - she's cracked the code on how to make AI work for us, not against us. We're talking real, practical strategies that keep your humanity front and centre while leveraging these powerful tools to amplify your impact.

From her journey as a copywriter to becoming an AI coach, Leanne shares the exact framework she uses to stay authentic in a world obsessed with automation. Her HABITS approach, especially that crucial 'H' for Human, is exactly what we need right now.

And here's the best part - we're not just talking theory. We explore specific, actionable steps you can take to start using AI without losing your soul in the process. Whether tech makes you break out in a cold sweat or you're already dabbling with ChatGPT, this episode has something for you.

So grab your coffee (or wine, I don't judge), and let's dive into this conversation about keeping it real in an increasingly artificial world.

Starting and running a business is no small feat, especially when you're juggling family, personal dreams and the demands of everyday life. In this episode, I’m sitting down with the incredible Kellie Wilkie, founder of Body System - a leading physiotherapy and exercise physiology clinic in Hobart, Tasmania. With 25 years' experience, a team of 24 and twin boys in tow, Kellie shares how she built a flourishing business whilst prioritising what matters most.

We hear about how she revolutionised the traditional physiotherapy model by creating a practice that puts people before profit, her incredible experience working with the Australian Olympic rowing team and the key to building a thriving business that allows her to pursue her dreams whilst maintaining a fulfilling family life.

Through intentional decision-making and strong team building, Kellie demonstrates that success doesn't require sacrifice. Her philosophy of "wearing one hat at a time" and staying true to core values has created a blueprint for building a business that works for you, not the other way round.

Key Takeaways:

• Break the mould: Design your business around your values, not industry expectations

• Build strong foundations: Create systems that allow for flexibility and growth

• Prioritise team wellbeing: Happy staff = successful business

• Practise intentional focus: Wear one hat at a time

• Create support structures: Both at home and work

• Lead with values: Let your principles guide your decisions

• Balance is possible: Success doesn't require personal sacrifice
