Everyone’s throwing AI at their business problems. But no amount of automation is going to fix the fact that you can’t attract, lead, or keep good people.

In Episode 94, Darris and Saad get raw about why most business owners are fishing in mud puddles with the wrong bait — then blaming the fish. We break down why YOU are both the biggest bottleneck and the only solution to your people problems, why the human element in business isn’t going anywhere, and what it actually takes to attract top performers who are already thriving somewhere else.

We cover the 3-bucket framework for understanding where AI helps and where it doesn’t, why “we’re a family” is a red flag, and why your lack of core values and standards is the reason everyone on your team looks like they don’t care.

If you’re tired of babysitting adults and wondering why your team isn’t performing — the mirror is waiting.

In this episode:

• Why AI will never replace the people-to-people side of business

• The fishing analogy every business owner needs to hear

• How to stop being the bottleneck to your own growth

• The 3-bucket framework: data problems, judgment calls, and relationships

• Why top talent will never come to your “scum pond”

• Core values as your measuring stick for attracting A-players
