You don’t have a tech stack. You have a graveyard of good intentions.

You keep signing up for new tools thinking this one will fix the chaos, but all you’re doing is layering bandaids over bad decisions and calling it “streamlining.” You’re wasting time, energy, and money on software that looks good but does nothing. And you know it.

In this quick and dirty episode of The Queen of Automation, I’m breaking down the exact 3-question filter I use to shut down shiny object syndrome before it costs you another dime. I’ll teach you how to run napkin ROI math in under a minute, kill distractions in your tech stack, and stop confusing “cool features” with actual outcomes. This is your wake-up call.

In the latest episode of Chronically Automated, Anthony and I had a really honest conversation about what it actually means when people start losing their jobs to AI. This wasn’t hypothetical or clickbait. We’re talking about 4,000 real people laid off from Salesforce because their AI platform is now handling over half of their customer service work. Same output, fewer humans. That’s the new reality.

We talked about what it feels like to face the idea of being replaced, especially when your value has always been tied to speed, accuracy, or availability, things AI is built to outperform. And we looked at the flipside too. Because if you’ve ever had to adapt, work differently, or figure things out on your own, you’re already ahead. You’re already thinking the way AI wants to be supported.

Anthony and I both come from that kind of mindset. We’re not afraid of AI. We’re embracing it. It helps us move faster and think bigger, but we also know it’s not going away, and ignoring it won’t save anyone’s job. What will make a difference is learning how to work with it, how to guide it, how to become the person who improves it.

I also introduced something I’m really excited about. We’ve opened up a free community called Displaced by AI. It’s a space for anyone who’s already been affected by automation, or feels like the clock is ticking. Whether you’re overwhelmed, skeptical, or just trying to figure out where you fit, this is a place to start learning and connecting. No pressure, no tech jargon, just real people navigating a huge shift together.

This episode wasn’t just strategy, it was personal. There were moments where we had to pause and really sit with what this all means. But there was also hope, because once you understand what’s happening, you can start to take control. And that’s where all the power is.

If you’re wondering how to stay relevant, how to adapt, or how to rebuild in the middle of all this change, I hope you’ll give it a listen. This is just the beginning.

On the latest episode of The Queen of Automation, I sat down with Kevin Brunnock, a real estate professional redefining how client connection and content intersect in one of the toughest markets in the world, New York City.

Kevin operates out of Manhattan as part of R New York, a fast-growing, family-run brokerage known for delivering high-touch service combined with sophisticated market strategy. He specializes in helping both buyers and sellers of condos, co-ops, townhouses, and multi-family investments align with their financial goals, whether that means optimizing cap rates, boosting cash-on-cash returns, or navigating value-driven residential transactions

In our conversation, we dove into what it takes to run a real estate business in NYC, from navigating compact spaces and massive price tags to the power of authentic content. Kevin doesn’t rely on high production, he’s building stories with just a selfie stick and his phone. He brings viewers into the soul of a building, the rhythm of a block, those little slices of NYC that make each listing feel lived-in and real. That authenticity becomes credibility. That credibility builds business.

We also explored how agents can rise above the noise by turning consistency, creativity, and realness into competitive advantage. For Kevin, social media isn’t a strategy, it’s the delivery system. The strategy is connection.

Whether you’re in real estate, service-based business, or building a personal brand, there’s something here you can use today.
