Using AI Without Losing Yourself | #33

AI is everywhere — but most people are still asking the wrong questions about it.
In this episode of Get Your House in Order, host Elke Rubach speaks with former lawyer and AI
strategist Lauren Cappell about why artificial intelligence isn't just another productivity tool, but
a structural shift in how work, decisions, and businesses operate. Drawing on her experience
across Big Tech, startups, and professional services, Lauren explains how to adopt AI
thoughtfully — without fear, hype, or surrendering human judgment.
Rather than chasing trends, this conversation focuses on discernment: how to remove noise,
eliminate busywork, and use AI in ways that actually expand your capacity instead of
overwhelming it.
In this episode, you'll hear about:

• Why AI should support human judgment, not replace it
• How professionals can use AI to eliminate busywork and reclaim focus
• The guardrails individuals and organizations need for responsible AI adoption

If you've been curious about AI but unsure how it fits into your life or work, this episode will help
you move forward with clarity, confidence, and intention.
