Summary
I have a confession to make. I almost published an entire podcast episode about switching to Claude... only to discover I'd been using a scam platform called Chatly the whole time. Not my finest moment — but honestly, it turned into one of the most valuable lessons I've learned about navigating AI as a coach. In this episode, I'm sharing the whole story: what happened, what I got wrong, and what I've learned now that I'm actually using the real Claude. I'm also diving into why I made the switch from ChatGPT in the first place, what's genuinely different about the two platforms, and how you can make the transition yourself if you're curious. Here's what I'm covering: The Chatly scam and why I'm sharing this story (hint: you might be next if you're not careful) Anthropic's ethical principles and why they matter to me as a coach The real differences between Claude and ChatGPT — what's actually true vs. what I thought was true How to move to Claude without falling for third-party scams Why the temptation to ditch AI altogether got stronger after this experience — and why I pushed through anyway Five creative ways coaches can use AI to support (not replace) their work How to approach AI with discernment, not blind trust Whether you're AI-curious, AI-resistant, or somewhere in between, this episode is about finding your footing in a landscape that's changing faster than any of us can keep up with.
