The Substack for People Who Refuse to Be Replaced, Manipulated, or Left Behind

If you’ve been watching AI explode and feeling that gnawing sense that the rules are changing, that the old playbooks are breaking, that something massive is shifting and you’re not quite sure where you fit in it, you’re in the right place.

I created AI with Leah because I got tired of watching good people get left behind.

I got tired of the hype. The fear tactics. The empty promises of “six figures in 30 days with AI” from people who have never built anything real. The manipulation dressed up as marketing. The spiritual void underneath so much of what’s being taught in this space.

And I got tired of watching people I care about, entrepreneurs, coaches, ministry leaders, small business owners, creators, people doing real work in the world, either ignore AI completely out of fear or overwhelm, or chase it blindly without any framework for using it responsibly.

So I built something different.

What You'll Find Here

This isn’t another AI newsletter filled with tool roundups and shiny object syndrome.

AI with Leah is where technology meets wisdom. Where strategy meets stewardship. Where you learn to use AI without losing your voice, your integrity, or your discernment.

Here’s what to expect:

Clarity on the real shift happening. Not hype. Not fear. Just honest analysis of what’s actually changing in how we work, create, and build online, and what it means for you.

Practical frameworks you can actually use. I’m not interested in theory for theory’s sake. Everything I teach is built to be implemented by real people with real lives and real constraints.

Kingdom perspective on technology. I’m faith-led. I don’t hide that. My work is grounded in biblical truth, discernment, and personal responsibility. If you’re a faith-based entrepreneur, coach, or ministry leader looking for someone who understands your values and your calling, this is your home.

Protection for your voice and authorship. One of the biggest dangers of AI is that it strips people of their voice. I teach you how to use these tools while actually strengthening your unique perspective, not diluting it.

No manipulation. No false urgency. No prosperity-gospel nonsense. I’ve been on the other side of that. I know what it costs. I refuse to build anything that requires me to become someone I’ve already been redeemed out of.

A Little About Me

I spent years building multi-seven-figure online coaching businesses. I was deep in the wealth consciousness space. Deep in the New Age. Deep in the occult. And I was completely miserable.

My marriage was crumbling. I was disconnected from my children. I was letting nannies raise them while I chased the next hundred-thousand-dollar month, the next sold-out program, the next hit of validation that I thought would finally make me feel like enough.

My health was failing. Five-to-seven-day migraines twice a month. Chronic inflammation. Thyroid disease. Forty-five pounds of weight my body was carrying because I was carrying so much that was never mine to hold.

In 2023, sitting in an apartment in Porto, Portugal, I laid out every piece of my life and business on white paper across the floor. Programs I was launching. Relationships I was neglecting. All of it.

And I realized I didn’t want any of it.

I fell to my knees and cried out to God. I surrendered everything. My business. My ambitions. Even my children, if that’s what was in their highest good. I just couldn’t live like that anymore.

That was the day everything changed.

Over the next year, I reconciled my marriage. I moved back in with my children. I walked away from the entire coaching business I’d built. I gave my life to Jesus. And I started building something I could actually be proud of.

Now I operate at the intersection of AI, culture, business, and Kingdom stewardship. I host The Cul✞ure Cast and co-host Faith on the Fringe. I mentor network and affiliate marketers in building ethical, sustainable income. And I teach people how to navigate this AI shift without compromising their identity, their faith, or their integrity.

Why I Created This

Here’s the thing. AI isn’t going away. It’s not a trend. It’s not a phase. It’s the biggest technological shift most of us will see in our lifetimes.

And the people who figure out how to use it well, responsibly, strategically, without losing themselves in the process, those are the people who will thrive.

The people who ignore it will get replaced.

The people who chase it blindly will burn out or sell their souls.

But the people who learn to steward it? They’ll build something that lasts.

That’s what AI with Leah is for.
