Stop asking AI to fix your decision paralysis.

It’s not here to validate your feelings, tell you you’re special, or magically solve your problems.

Here’s the trap I see founders fall into every day: dumping their overwhelm into ChatGPT like it’s a digital therapist. But AI isn’t your therapist — it’s your most patient strategic partner.

In this episode, you’ll learn how to stop seeking validation and start demanding solutions. I’ll show you how to use AI to structure priorities, evaluate options, and cut through emotional noise — so you trade paralysis for momentum.

You’ll discover:

  • Why using AI as “therapy” keeps you stuck and slows your growth
  • The hidden costs of pouring your overwhelm into chat instead of asking for strategy
  • How to flip your prompts from feelings to frameworks — and get clarity fast
  • Three ways to use AI as a strategic partner so you move forward instead of spinning in indecision
