AI is everywhere right now — and for a lot of business owners, it’s starting to feel more overwhelming than exciting. In this episode, Chris sits down with Kane Mitchell from Mitchell Digital to cut through the noise and talk about what stress-free AI adoption actually looks like in the real world.

Kane isn’t interested in gimmicks or “tech for tech’s sake”. He’s spent the last 10+ years helping small businesses get more leads and fewer headaches, and he’s now using AI automation, workflow design, and conversion-focused web builds to remove the admin that drains time and energy. Together, they explore how Kane is navigating the rapid growth of AI, how he’s integrating it into his business and daily life without the fear-factor, and what it means to build intelligent systems that genuinely support you — not complicate everything.

If you’re curious about AI but don’t want the technical waffle, this one will leave you feeling clearer, calmer, and more confident about what’s possible.

In this episode, you’ll hear about:

• How to approach AI in a way that feels practical (not scary)
• Using automation to eliminate repetitive admin and free up headspace
• Building lead-generating websites that do more than “look nice”
• Why clear communication beats “technical BS” every time
• Simple ways to start integrating AI without overhauling your whole business

In this episode, I'm joined by Laura Gillespie from Gillespie Recruitment for a conversation that feels more important than ever: the power of kindness in business.

Laura has built her career around people; whether that's helping someone find the right role, supporting businesses to hire well, or simply making introductions that open doors. We talk about what kindness looks like in the real world of work (not just as a buzzword), how it changes the way you lead and hire, and why being people-first can be a genuine advantage, even when the world feels anything but kind!

If you're building a business, growing a team, or just trying to do good work without burning out, this episode is a brilliant reminder that kindness isn't weakness, it's strength.
