AI Feels Overwhelming? Stop Adopting From the Outside In (The 3-Step Filter)
Episode 209
Tuesday, 30 December, 2025
Does the thought of AI make you want to close your laptop? You aren't alone. There are thousands of tools launching every day, and the FOMO is real. But here is the truth: AI feels overwhelming because you are adopting it backward. In this episode, Tanya Gossage cuts through the noise to reveal the "Inside-Out Strategy." Instead of chasing shiny tools, we are applying a strict strategic filter. You will learn the three critical questions you must ask before buying any new software, why automating chaos is a trap, and how to humanize your AI so you never sound like a robot. Timestamps: 00:00:29 – Why AI feels overwhelming (It's not because it's complicated). 00:01:15 – The "Outside-In" vs. "Inside-Out" adoption mistake. 00:02:37 – The problem with having zero filters on your tech stack. 00:04:00 – The 3 Critical Filters: Time, Client Experience, and Revenue. 00:07:00 – The "Chaos Audit": Identifying what is draining your energy. 00:09:11 – Why automating a broken system just scales your stress. 00:09:34 – How to humanize AI content so it sounds like you. 🔑 Key Takeaways The "Outside-In" Trap: Why starting with the tool instead of the strategy is the fastest way to burnout. The 3-Question Filter: Before you buy another piece of software, ask these three critical questions. If the answer isn't a "Hell Yes," it's a "No." Systemize Before You Automate: Why automating a broken process just creates faster chaos. The "Human Layer": How to use AI for drafts and structure while keeping your unique voice and brand personality intact. The Chaos Audit: A simple exercise to identify what's draining your energy and where AI can actually help (vs. just adding noise). 🚀 Actionable Steps Run a Tech Audit: Look at every tool you are paying for right now. Does it connect to a clear strategy? If not, cut it. Apply the Filter: For every new AI tool, ask: Does it reclaim time from low-value tasks? Does it enhance client experience without removing the human touch? Does it support revenue generation or delegation? Humanize Your Output: Use AI to brainstorm and draft, but always be the final editor to ensure it sounds like YOU.
