When it comes to work, many of us wrestle with the same question:
How do we embrace technology—especially AI—without losing what makes us human?
In the latest episode of the Workplace Revamp podcast by Rene Madden, our very own founder and CEO Stephanie Huffman, joined the conversation to explore this very topic. And let me tell you, this one is worth grabbing a notebook for.
Creativity + AI = A Partnership, Not a Threat
One highlight from the conversation was when Stephanie shared:
“Creativity can work together with AI without losing what makes our work human.”
It was such a refreshing take. Instead of fearing AI as a creativity-killer, Stephanie encouraged us to see it as a partner—a tool that can actually spark more ideas, streamline workflows, and free us up to focus on the most meaningful parts of our work.
Stephanie reminded listeners that no matter how advanced our tools become, human connection is still at the heart of meaningful work.
This is more than a nice sentiment—it’s a call to stay relational in a digital-first world. Tools can make us faster, but people make work matter.
Stephanie also addressed the question: will AI take our jobs. She offered key points on how that can only happen, if we let it, and suggested ways to ensure you own the AI space in your company or organization.
Also addressed, was how to take the lead in your business by setting policy and creating discussion around the topic that will involve leadership and documentation company wide.
The interview wrapped up with a challenge that is too good to ignore:
“Keep rethinking how work gets done.”
So, what about you? How could AI support your work instead of replacing your creativity? How could it give you back time for the parts of your job that need your unique perspective?
This episode is a perfect companion for anyone who wants to stay relevant, embrace innovation, and keep their work human.
