AI Readiness Project with Michelle Muncy-Silva: Reconstructing Limitation, Rediscovering Play
Description
In this deeply honest and energizing episode, Kyle Shannon and Anne Murphy sit down with Michelle Muncy-Silva—educator, podcaster, and founder of Empowered by AI. Together, they explore what it means to unlearn outdated beliefs, reconstruct personal limitations, and use AI not just as a tool, but as a trusted thought partner.
Michelle shares her own journey from burnout to curiosity, explaining how adopting a playful, question-forward approach to AI changed everything—from launching a travel blog to creating a podcast that amplifies women’s voices in tech. The trio dives into generational narratives, the emotional labor of AI adoption, and why we all need to stop apologizing and start asking better questions.
Topics covered:
- Why AI is about relief, not more overwhelm
- What "relational AI" really looks like
- How Gen X baggage intersects with 21st-century empowerment
- Why learning to play is one of the most strategic moves you can make
If you've ever felt like you had to “do it all” or wondered how AI might actually make your life easier, this episode is for you.
