Most of us walk around convinced we know our weaknesses, but what if the thing that knows you better than anyone (your AI assistant) could tell you what you're actually missing? We asked ChatGPT one brutal question and got answers that hit way too close to home.
The uncomfortable truth: we're all playing smaller than we should, carrying more weight than we need to, and missing opportunities hiding in plain sight.
In this episode, we test a viral prompt that reveals your blind spots, squandered potential, and the influence you didn't know you had...then process the existential crisis that follows.
