In this episode of Stylist Soul Tribe Conversations, I’m joined by Hunter Donia and Jodie Brown—for a brutally honest conversation on all things AI, ChatGPT, and the fine line between helpful tools and brand dilution.

If you’ve ever found yourself second-guessing whether your content still sounds like you, or wondering how much automation is too much—this one’s for you.

We dig into the rise of AI-generated content in our industry, how it’s starting to feel same-same everywhere you look, and what to keep in mind if you're leaning on tools like ChatGPT to write your captions, bios, emails, or client communications. We also get into some deeper stuff—like the emotional risks of relying on tech without self-awareness, and why human connection will always win.

We chat about:

• 🛠 Tool vs. Crutch: Are you using AI to enhance your business—or hide behind it?
• 🧠 The Real Cost of AI-first marketing (and how it can flatten your brand)
• 💬 Why your voice, tone, and lived experience still matter most
• 🚫 How ChatGPT can confidently serve up incorrect info—and how to fact-check wisely
• ❤️ The human side of business: client trust, conflict, and your own mental health

Why this episode matters:
AI isn’t going anywhere—but neither is your voice. If you’ve been feeling off about your content lately, or you’re just starting to explore ChatGPT, this conversation is your grounded, hype-free guide to using it intentionally—without sacrificing connection or authenticity.
