What if the thing standing between you and your next level isn’t another AI tool, but the version of you that still insists on doing it all?
The delegation queen herself, Nata Salvatori, business coach, fractional COO, founder of Accidental CEO and a Her AI Era Summit speaker, joins Kinsey and Joyce to talk about using AI without getting distracted by it. They get into the $15-an-hour tasks quietly filling your calendar, why AI is “garbage in, garbage out” just like a new hire, and the identity shift from founder to CEO that no systems course ever teaches you.
If you’re a founder who keeps taking work back the second you hand it off, or who suspects you’re using AI like a car you only bought to listen to the radio, this one’s for you. You’ll walk away knowing which tasks to hand to AI first, how to start delegating without the guilt, and why letting go of being the hero is the real unlock.
In this episode:
- The unhinged check-in, with Nata’s AI podcast cover that gave her co-host three hands, Joyce’s $3,000-a-seat BTS ticket math, and Kinsey’s 200 AI assets plus the “professional pain in the ass” skill she apparently needs
- How Nata got called a robot years before AI existed, and why she has to fight not to get distracted by everything AI makes possible
- The car analogy, and why most people use AI like a car they only bought to listen to the radio
- Show me your calendar, and why six- and seven-figure goals don’t math out when your day is full of $15-an-hour tasks
- What to hand to AI first, and why delegating in your personal life builds the confidence to delegate in your business
- A peek at Nata’s Her AI Era Summit session, “AI Won’t Fix Your Delegation Problem If You Won’t Let Go of Being the Hero”
- The founder-to-CEO identity shift, why growth feels unsafe, and the grief of letting go of the person who built the business
- Why practicing leadership on AI makes you a better boss to humans, and why bossing around the bots feels so much easier
