In this thought-provoking episode, Autumn Carter explores the ever-evolving world of artificial intelligence and asks a timely, complex question: Can AI truly replace the guidance of a human coach, consultant, or therapist? As a certified life and parenting coach, Autumn shares personal insights, real-world examples, and even a conversation between ChatGPT and her own child to highlight what AI can and cannot offer when it comes to emotional support, intuitive insight, and meaningful change.

You’ll hear about the subtle nuances that separate human mentors from machines—empathy, memory, ethical responsibility, and the ability to hold space for discomfort and growth. Autumn walks through scenarios where AI may offer convenience but falls short in offering connection, accountability, and transformational breakthroughs. She also provides a mindful grounding practice to explore how you’re personally reacting to AI’s increasing presence in your world.

If you’ve been leaning on AI tools for answers, this episode will gently challenge you to reflect on where real support still matters—and why your human experiences deserve to be witnessed by another human. With coaching questions and practical takeaways, Autumn reminds us that technology is powerful, but presence is irreplaceable.

One last thing to cover the show legally. I am a certified life coach giving general advice. So think of this more like a self-help book. This podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only. I am not a licensed therapist. So this podcast shouldn't be taken as a replacement for professional guidance from my doctor therapist. Or any other qualified expert? If you want personal one-on-one coaching for my certified coach. Go to my website, wellness and every season.com.
