ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
Chelsea Squires is an AI and data leader at Slalom, a consultancy that believes the best technology outcomes start with people, not the other way around, and one of Forbes' top ranked management consulting firms in 2025. She spends her days helping companies move past the noise and actually implement AI in ways that stick. She also happens to spend her weekends building Claude-powered apps to manage her skincare routine. Both require the same thing: knowing exactly what you're working with.
This episode is about what it actually takes to use AI well.
This is the patch:
- The problem: why adoption is the hardest part of any AI rollout and what most companies are getting wrong
- The method: reframing AI not as a time-saving tool but as something that gives you your mental bandwidth back
- The routine: how Chelsea built a personal Claude-powered skincare app and what it reveals about where this technology is actually headed
In the lifestyle segment we talk about fashion as a form of confidence, dressing with intention, and the shoe that put her foot quite literally in the door.
