241: Kirk vs. Spock: Why Humanity Beats Logic in the Age of AI

2025-08-11

In leadership—and in life—it’s tempting to rely solely on logic, rules, and analysis. But in a world increasingly dominated by AI-level intellect, the leaders who will stand out are those who know when to trust something deeper. In this episode, inspired by a classic Captain Kirk vs. Spock moment from Star Trek, I explore why your gut, your heart, and your human instincts are often your most valuable assets. You’ll learn how to balance intellect with intuition, make braver decisions, and lead in a way no machine ever could.
