In this episode of Getting Open, host Andrea Miller speaks with transformational leader and author Derek Rydall about his new book, A Whole New Human. Derek addresses the widespread fear surrounding the rise of AI. He emphasizes that the path to remaining "irreplaceable" in an automated world is to return to the ancient wisdom of "knowing thyself" and living authentically. By shedding societal conditioning and identifying our unique "life code," we can leverage AI as a tool rather than being manipulated by it.
