How I use (and don't use) Ai

I'm getting honest about my relationship with AI — how I actually use it, where I draw hard lines, and why this conversation matters so much to me as a coach to artists. I cover why I switched from ChatGPT to Claude, what finally pushed me to make the move, and why I think it's the superior product ethically and functionally. I also come clean about Grammarly — spoiler, I didn't even know it was AI until I looked it up writing this episode. We get into the big stuff too: Disney firing 1,000 artists after using their work to train AI, the ethics of scaling a business entirely on AI agents, and why I'm unwilling to make "fuck you money" without paying people. Plus a note for artists on why your value has actually increased in the age of AI slop. And yes, there's a story about mud pies. You'll see why it fits. https://www.twocanco.com/aoe-mastermind  https://www.twocanco.com/power-play

What if the secret to a better business was less grinding and more tending? I spent the weekend planting 15,000+ seeds and couldn't stop thinking about business. In this episode I walk you through the garden metaphors that changed how you show up. From trusting the sprout you can't see yet, to why not marketing is the same as not watering, to why pulling the weeds you've been avoiding would change everything. In this episode: Little sprouts & why we dig everything up when it's not working yet Watering = marketing (and how to make it feel easier) Pulling weeds — the 37% yield loss stat that hits different Thinning + pinching: slow down to speed up Seasons: you can't harvest all year Work with Carley: https://forms.gle/fXi3buF4fkCK7AxCA  Enjoy the Ride course: https://www.twocanco.com/ride Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carleyzuercher/ 

What do you do when your biggest lead source is also your biggest headache? In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on a real client story — a stationer dealing with a toxic planner who was overstepping, micromanaging, and making her life miserable. We looked at the facts (spoiler: the feelings weren't the facts), set some firm boundaries, and completely changed how she ran her business — all in the first week. What we covered: Why feelings aren't facts — especially when it comes to where your leads come from How she stood up for herself mid-project, in front of a shared client Creating a separate lead gen form for planners vs. couples Only offering options you actually like (you're still the boss!)

My client only posted 14 times in 2025 and still added 100k+ in revenue in her new business. Why? Because more does not equal more.  https://www.twocanco.com/aoe-mastermind 

Stationers: if you're posting on Instagram, getting crickets, and assuming the algorithm hates you… we need to talk. In this episode, I'm breaking down why your posts might be getting likes but not sales, why your sales posts often look like they're "flopping," and what actually makes people hire you from Instagram.   We're talking about the difference between vanity metrics and money in the bank, how to stop creating posts that try to do everything at once, and the messaging shifts that actually lead to inquiries and bookings.   And if Instagram isn't your favorite place to spend time? We'll talk about that too.   Hands-on support like this every day to unfuck your mind when it comes to insta and get you better results with less effort??
