Today, I’m hanging out with my friend Erin Thompson, founder of Aspire for More with Erin and co-founder of The Mentoring Company, and let me just say, this conversation brought it.
We talk about how Executive Directors can move from feeling overwhelmed to truly empowered by using AI the right way without losing the human touch that makes senior living special.
Erin shares her journey from volunteering in senior living at 19 to becoming an Executive Director, and now helping leaders build growth cultures while prioritizing what actually matters.
We dive into:
✅ How AI can take busy work off your plate so you can spend time with your people.
✅ Why “feels like cheating” is a good thing when it comes to freeing your brain for leadership.
✅ How to test AI in your workflows today (even if you’re not techy).
✅ Why the future of senior living leadership requires embracing change—imperfectly, but intentionally.
Plus, we have a little fun along the way (there may or may not be a bald joke in there…).
If you’re an ED, regional, or anyone in senior living who’s felt like there’s never enough time in the day, this episode is for you.
Give it a listen, and let me know your biggest takeaway!
