In this episode, Amanda Kahlow dives into how embracing change with love and leading with emotional intelligence can transform the way we work and connect. She explores the evolving role of AI in marketing, the power of resilience and positivity, and why building authentic relationships is more important than ever.


Takeaways: 

  1. Embrace Change with Optimism: With rapid tech transformation, especially with AI reshaping industries, Amanda emphasizes the power of a positive mindset. Instead of fearing disruption, lean into innovation with optimism and confidence. Change isn’t a threat—it’s an opportunity to reimagine possibilities and deliver greater value for your customers.
  2. Build Connections That Matter: Despite AI’s advancements, the human element remains irreplaceable. Amanda highlights the importance of emotional intelligence in building meaningful relationships—with your team, your customers, and your community. In sales and marketing, trust and connection drive success, and these values should be at the core of how we lead and grow.
  3. Turn Challenges into Opportunities: Whether facing setbacks or receiving a “no,” Amanda’s advice is clear: reframe obstacles as chances to innovate. From industry-defining successes like Airbnb to everyday wins, perseverance and perspective are essential. Helping others and fostering collaboration can unlock new paths to success, both personally and professionally.


Quote of the Show:

"In the world of AI, where there is a lot of fear right now that AI will be taking, augmenting and in some cases, replacing jobs, we have a choice to say, yes, I'm going to embrace this and I'm going to lean into it or no, I'm going to be afraid of it and run away. My recommendation and my cheat code is lean into it with as much love as you possibly can. And yes, your existing functions and tasks may change and may go away. But at the end of the day, I believe it's going to make all of our lives better. And I have a healthy amount of love for it.” - Amanda Kahlow
