In this episode, Alana addresses a growing trend: women replacing real coaching with AI tools. While AI offers immediate, judgment-free advice, Alana stresses that it can't provide the human connection crucial for true healing.
She explains that emotional issues and habits can't be resolved through logic alone; they require the emotional attunement and co-regulation that only a human coach can offer.
The episode emphasizes that while AI can be a useful tool, it should not replace the indispensable human element in coaching.
