In this episode, Alana addresses a growing trend: women replacing real coaching with AI tools. While AI offers immediate, judgment-free advice, Alana stresses that it can't provide the human connection crucial for true healing.

She explains that emotional issues and habits can't be resolved through logic alone; they require the emotional attunement and co-regulation that only a human coach can offer.

The episode emphasizes that while AI can be a useful tool, it should not replace the indispensable human element in coaching.

Takeaways

• AI can mirror data—but not the emotional chemistry of being seen and supported.

• True healing happens through co-regulation with another human, not self-analysis.

• You can’t heal a safety wound with more control or logic.

• Self-awareness without integration becomes self-criticism.

• Coaching isn’t about information—it’s a nervous system experience.

• Connection, not perfection, is what rewires old patterns and restores trust.
