BONUS: When AI Listens In... And What That Could Mean for Coaching, Advising and PLCs

In this special bonus episode, host Seth Fleischauer unpacks a surprising insight from his recent conversation with Dr. Chandler Chang of Therapy Lab: an AI “scribe” that listens to therapy sessions and supports teens between appointments. Yes, it raises privacy flags. Yes, it feels futuristic. But if we can suspend disbelief and concerns for a moment, the implications could be huge.Seth explores how this same model could transform coaching, advising, and teaching: - What if an advisor’s best insights were available to students 24/7? - What if overloaded professors or mentor teachers could extend their presence through a trained AI assistant? - What if PLCs, leadership groups, or even families could capture their collective wisdom and make it accessible on demand?He even shares a deeply personal experiment—training an AI on years of emails from his late father to approximate his voice when he needed advice.This episode wrestles with the big tension: Are AI tools expanding our humanity, or eroding it? Helping us connect, or helping us avoid connection?And it sets the stage for the next full conversation with Karle Delo, who brings a ground-level look at how students are actually using AI in classrooms today.
