In this episode of Aligned with Kell Quarrell, I'm diving into a big shift I've made in my business, one that's already transforming my marketing, engagement and energy.

Yes, I love AI. I use it daily. But somewhere along the way, I started outsourcing my voice to it. And let me tell you, that shortcut came with a cost: a disconnect from my message, my audience and my purpose.

Tune in as I share:

• Why I've gone back to handwriting my content (emails, social posts, even blogs!)

• What sparked this return (hello, five-day challenge magic ✨)

• The massive shift in engagement and impact I've seen since making this change

• How this ties into Human Design, my Conscious Mercury and being an external market environment

• A powerful question you can ask yourself to bring more alignment back into your business

If you've been relying on AI or other tools to "just get the content out," this episode will lovingly nudge (or boldly shock ⚡) you to reconnect with your authentic voice.

📝 What have you outsourced in your business that it's time to take back?
