  • 156. The Worst Thing That Can Happen With Ai? | Sam Morris
    Jul 16 2025

    In this episode of Unjaded, I’m joined by dating and healthy relationships coach, Sam Morris for a grounded, real-world conversation about how AI is reshaping business, creativity, and human awareness.

    Sam shares her personal take on using AI tools like ChatGPT with caution—not out of fear, but out of deep respect for presence, integrity, and the energetic frequency of her work. We talk about the ease and efficiency AI brings, but also the very real risks of relying on it to think for us, write for us, and fill space we’re not actually present for.

    This is not an anti-tech rant or a productivity hack how-to. It’s an invitation to pause and ask:

    What’s the cost of never touching your own words?

    Where does your energy go when your content isn’t really yours anymore?

    What's the end game here?

    In this episode, you’ll hear us unpack:

    • Why Sam avoids using AI to write sales copy—and the energetic difference it makes
    • The risk of losing our critical thinking and creativity through overuse of AI
    • What she notices in AI-generated content that lacks actual resonance
    • How convenience can disconnect us from the work and the audience
    • Why your voice is your best asset and how outsourcing it weakens your marketing
    • How to hold reverence for your words, your work, and the people receiving them
    • How to use AI tools to access valid research
    • How to create a timely lead magnet using an ai calculator or quiz

    Whether you’re experimenting with AI in your business or questioning your relationship with it, this conversation is a reminder: Just because we can doesn’t mean we should.

  • 151. What if ChatGPT | Ai is Wrong?
    Jun 30 2025

    When AI Gets Your Human Design Wrong

    Imagine building your entire business around a Human Design type that isn’t even yours…

    That’s exactly what happened to a colleague of mine who asked ChatGPT to read her chart. She gave it her birth info and, like magic, it spat out a full Human Design analysis.

    Only problem? It was completely wrong.

    For six months, she thought she was a Manifesting Generator—and built her entire business like one. Turns out, she’s a Generator.

    And that’s no small difference. In this episode, I’m walking you through the very real impact of working against your energy, how easy it is to get misled in the AI era, and why we absolutely cannot outsource our authority to a robot.

    Here’s what we get into:

    The key difference between Manifesting Generators and Generators in business.

    Why so many entrepreneurs are burned out (and it’s not your fault)

    What happens when AI gives false HD information—and how to check your chart properly.

    How our deepest gifts are often the things we’ve been most conditioned away from.

    The problem with AI-generated testimonials, messaging, and “fake” online voices.

    Why your voice still matters more than ever—and how to stay rooted in your truth.

    If you’re using AI in your business, this isn’t about fear. It’s about discernment.

    Because AI can’t see you.

    It can’t feel your energy.

    It doesn’t know you.

    And when it comes to Human Design? Accuracy—and nuances—matter more than ever.

    Stay tuned for a future episode where I’ll be interviewing my colleague and unpacking her six-month detour with a mistyped chart.

    Let’s bring the human back into Human Design

    The Wound Beneath the Words: What’s Really Holding You Back Online

    Content Note:

    This episode includes personal stories related to birth trauma and child loss. If these topics are tender for you, please listen with care—or feel free to skip this one if it’s not for you right now.

    Episode Summary:

    In this deeply personal episode, Vickie Dickson opens up about the unspoken layers that can shape how we show up—or don’t—in our businesses.

    She shares a story she’s never told publicly before: the story of her twin brother who died in utero, and the messaging she absorbed as a child about being “too much” from the very beginning. It’s a vulnerable, honest conversation about how early trauma, subconscious beliefs, and emotional survival strategies can silently run the show in your content, your voice, and your ability to lead.

    But this episode isn’t about trauma. It’s about what lies beneath your self-doubt, and how healing that isn’t separate from your business growth—it’s essential to it.

    In this episode, you’ll hear:

    Why showing up online often brings up old wounds.

    How self-sabotage is usually your nervous system trying to protect you.

    The connection between your wounds and your ability to show up fully in your business.

    Why surface-level business advice won’t work if your inner story is misaligned.

    A powerful reminder that healing happens in layers. You’re not behind.

    If you’ve ever felt like there’s more you’re meant to say… but something holds you back every time, this episode will help you start to name it—and begin to gently release it.

    The Energetic Vacuum: Why You Can’t Create If You’re Always Full

    Episode Summary:

    When was the last time you energetically vacuumed your space?

    In this episode of Unjaded, Vickie Dickson explores the invisible weight that clutters our creative energy—overcommitment, chronic busyness, and the subconscious drive to stay small. Inspired by conversations inside the Designed to Profit membership, she walks you through why burnout blocks clarity, and how creating space (even 10 minutes at a time) can reignite your creative spark.

    You’ll hear why so many women in business can’t name the one offer they most long to sell—and how reclaiming your time and attention is the first step to building the business you truly want.

    In this episode, Vickie shares:

    Why your plate is overflowing—and what that’s really costing you

    The link between burnout and your creative blocks

    What it means to "energetically vacuum" your space

    Why the subconscious resists expansion (and how to meet it with intention)

    Small, everyday ways to create space for growth

    The invitation to do less so you can become more

    This isn’t about overhauling your life overnight. It’s about taking back your space—energetically, mentally, and physically—so you can finally hear your own wisdom.
