Why “I Can Do It Myself” is Holding You Back in the AI Era
Update: 2025-09-02
Description
In this episode of The Mosaic Podcast, I’m talking about a trap that’s easy to fall into — especially if you’re really good at what you do.
I’ve worked with some brilliant people who can solve complex problems on their own… and because of that, they avoid asking for help. But in the age of AI and lightning-fast change, going solo can actually slow you down.
We’ll explore:
- The “too cool for school” mindset and how it stalls growth
 - Why high performers sometimes reject collaboration
 - How refusing help can keep you stuck as the game changes around you
 - The power of building a team that allows you to play bigger
 
If you’ve been carrying the weight alone because you can, it’s time to ask if that’s really helping you win.
