On this episode of Business Brain, you explore how to use AI as a tool for revealing blind spots you didn’t even know you had. With prompts designed to surface hidden assumptions and second-order effects, you learn how to turn AI into a sharper strategic partner. The hosts walk you through asking AI to SWOT your life, push for specific examples, and then combine strengths and weaknesses so you can take real corrective action instead of just collecting insights.

This episode also shows you how to redirect AI when answers drift and how to make it ask you smarter questions—especially when building plans or creative projects. The big takeaway: frequent use and strategic prompting erase resistance and unlock the clarity that fuels your Charmed Life. When you know how to steer the conversation, AI becomes a force multiplier for both your business and your thinking.
