In this clip, I share what's really helped me build mental resilience over the years.

Some of it is foundational — a natural sense of enthusiasm, and a long-term commitment to practices like meditation and yoga. But the biggest shift came from understanding what I call a Stockdale Moment.

That's the ability to face the brutal reality of your situation, while still maintaining absolute faith that you'll get through it.

During COVID, I made a decision early on: this would be a defining moment. Not something that happened to me — something I would lead through. That mindset changed how I showed up for my team, my clients, and my community during a very uncertain time.

At the end of the day, resilience comes back to this: your job is to serve. When you focus on serving others, it pulls you out of "woe is me" and puts you back into action.

That's where real strength comes from.

"If anyone can use a free AI tool to get a personalised answer to any question in seconds… are courses dead?"

That's how we open this week's episode of Dare to Launch.

Here's my answer – the value of information is trending towards zero.

I chose those words very carefully. And when you check out the episode, you'll see why.

I've been deep in AI since the 90s. Back then I was using AI to predict stock market trends. And I don't think I've seen a moment that required business owners to think more critically about what they're really selling.

So Chris, Dan, and I sat down to unpack what's really happening with AI right now – and what it means if you're in the expert, coaching, or teaching business.

This is a spicy episode.

Dan and I are usually on the same page. But this time… well, let's just say we have a number of "let me offer a counterpoint" moments. 😉

We also get into:

• Why the value of information going to $0 is actually GOOD news for some folks in the wisdom business (and how to make sure you're on the right side of the line)

• The one word I've had on my mind since ChatGPT launched – and why it's still the most important word in the AI space

• The "AI Tingle" that is – "quietly" – waiting to destroy the trust you've built with your audience (yep, that was deliberate!)

• Why using AI to improve your copy could harm your conversions – and why you might be better off writing it yourself (even if you're not good at copy)

• What your customers are REALLY buying in an AI world – and how knitting can help you sell it

• The most AI proof business I know – and the human elements AI can't replicate

• Why people using AI to solve their problems for free could be your best customers

… and more.

Don't believe the doom-and-gloom…

There's opportunity here with AI… and you have more control over it than you might realise.

My Launch Coaches are awesome.

And in this episode, you get to see it for yourself.

Chris sits down with two of my team – Julie and Jolene – to ask them about what it really takes to grow from 5 to 6 figures…

… and then from 6 to 7 figures.

They've seen inside hundreds of launches– from brand new launchers to folks regularly hitting six figures.

Every week, they're debriefing, analyzing, and see what actually works.

They get into:

• Why the shortest path is also the safest path

• The $700K shift – what to do when things go sideways in a launch

• The mindset shift it takes to hit 7-figures

• How to crush imposter syndrome

… and more.
