Audacity Over Automation: Building Your Legacy in the Age of AI

We’ve been taught that legacy means output: more books, more content, more doing. But as AI floods our feeds and machines outproduce us a thousandfold, we must redefine what it truly means to leave a mark. In this soul-stirring solo episode of The Crown Yourself Podcast, host Kimberly Spencer—master mindset coach, TEDx speaker, and founder of Crown Yourself—invites you into a higher conversation: What if your true legacy isn’t in what you produce, but in how boldly you dare? Kimberly unpacks the coming identity shift of the AI age, where productivity is no longer the pinnacle—presence is. Through stories of intuition, motherhood, and unapologetic audacity, she explores how to build a legacy infused with soul, not just systems. Because while AI can replicate your words, it can’t replicate your wisdom. Machines can outproduce you—but they can’t outdare you. This episode is your royal invitation to reclaim your power, redefine your work, and reign with conscious courage in a world obsessed with more. Your legacy isn’t output—it’s energy. It’s how you love, lead, and live audaciously awake. Enjoy, sovereigns! Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, or your favorite podcast listening platform.
