TED2019 Interview Series: Goodreads co-founder Elizabeth Khuri Chandler on how she plans for unstructured time and spontaneity

**This week I'm sharing a crossover episode from the Humans, being. podcast with the wonderful Lael Stone. It's one of the more personal chats I've done in a while. We talk about my burnout year, the tiny experiments that brought me back, AI and where I think it's headed, and the uncomfortable question of whether being ordinary might actually be enough. I hope you love it as much as I loved having it. You can find the original episode on Humans Being here.**

 

Amantha calls her AI 'Sunny'. She talks to it on the drive to the gym, like she's chatting to a friend. And it has quietly changed how she works, how she writes, and how she gets the thinking out of her own head.

Dr. Amantha Imber is one of the sharpest, most generous humans I know. An organisational psychologist, the founder of Inventium, host of How I Work, the first Australian to win a Thinkers50 Innovation Award, the author of four bestselling books, and her brand new one, The Energy Game, lands in July.

In this episode, we discuss Amantha's burnout year and the tiny experiments that crawled her back, the ones she calls boosts, rest, and protect. Why "fake rest" (Netflix while you scroll) won't fill the bucket. And we talk about the childhood praise imprint that drives so many of us: what if the goal isn't to be more, but to be okay with being ordinary?

We explore:
The pressure we accept being human and thinking we must do it all
The hit-by-a-bus fantasy and what it tells us about how women carry stress
AI as a thought partner, and how Amantha uses it without losing the human bit
What we want for our daughters, and the thinking skills we don't want to outsource

What I told Lael Stone about my worst year

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/015a1e11-6138-4002-8c1a-b450007342ad/transcript

**Join the AI Agent Bootcamp here: https://www.inventium.ai/learnvirtually-agents** 

There's a question you've answered a hundred times before. You know the one. Someone pings you, you stop what you're doing, dig through a document or two, and type out the same response you've typed a dozen times this month. It doesn't feel catastrophic in the moment, but across a week it quietly eats hours. 

A knowledge agent is built for exactly this problem. It holds the information so you don't have to be the one constantly retrieving it. 

In this How I AI episode, Neo and I unpack what a knowledge agent is, how it works, and how to build one that actually saves you time, whether you're fielding questions solo or trying to help a whole team self-serve. 

How I AI is a special series within How I Work where Neo and I explore how high performers are using AI at work to boost productivity, make better decisions and reduce overwhelm. 

What you'll learn: 
What a knowledge agent actually is and how it differs from other agents 
The kinds of questions and roles that benefit most from one 
How to share a knowledge agent across a team without creating problems 
What makes knowledge good (or bad) for an agent to work from 
The three things you need to set up a knowledge agent properly 
Practical AI tools for productivity and focus 
Real-world AI workflows used by high performers 
How to use AI at work without burning out 
Smart shortcuts for managing time and mental load

How I AI: How to build a knowledge agent that answers every 101 question - so you don't have to

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/fa326977-3de5-4283-9b8b-af3500c58607/clips/a09ec33c-a27c-453e-abe7-b44b0041f63b/transcript

There's a moment a lot of professionals know well. You put real thought into a LinkedIn post, hit publish, and watch the likes trickle in. Five. Maybe six. One comment from a colleague you personally recruited into the thread. 

Meanwhile, your feed has started to look like it was written by the same person. Polished, vaguely inspirational, and somehow saying nothing at all. 

In this episode, I sit down with Jessi Hempel, senior editor-at-large at LinkedIn and host of the award-winning podcast Hello Monday, to get inside what's actually happening on the platform right now. Jessi has spent 25 years in tech journalism and eight years at LinkedIn, and she has a front-row seat to how AI is reshaping what it means to have a voice, both on the platform and in your career more broadly. 

We talk about why your LinkedIn profile is doing more heavy lifting than any post you'll ever write, how to approach content in a way that builds real conversation rather than chasing reach, and what the rise of AI-generated posts actually means for anyone trying to show up as themselves online. 

If you've been feeling like something's off with how your content is landing lately, this conversation will give you some much-needed clarity. 

 

Jessi and I discuss: 
The part of your LinkedIn profile that matters far more than your posts (and that most people ignore) 
Why Jessi's posting advice runs counter to what most social media gurus will tell you 
The one habit that has made the biggest difference to how Jessi's own posts find reach 
What AI-generated content is doing to trust on LinkedIn, and where Jessi thinks it's all heading 
The creator who has built one of the most engaged communities on the platform, and what makes her strategy work 
Why Jessi thinks a major career shift is becoming the smarter move for mid-career professionals right now 
The skill that no bootcamp can teach you, and why it matters more than ever in the age of AI 

 

Key quotes 

"If I get off of this conversation and I jump onto LinkedIn and I read a post from you and it sounds like an LLM wrote it, I'm gonna really have distaste in my mouth." 

"Success is being in real conversations that matter with people who have the potential to elevate the issues of concern for you in your career."

Key quotes&nbsp;
"If I get off of this conversation and I jump onto LinkedIn and I read a post from you and it sounds like an LLM wrote it, I'm&nbsp;gonna&nbsp;really have distaste in my mouth."&nbsp;
"Success is being in real conversations that matter with people who have the potential to elevate the issues of concern for you in your career."&nbsp;
