Will Leach: Ending the Marketing Fog with Behavioral AI and Mindstate Science

from The Lighthouse Sessions · host Jeff Borschowa

In the life of every visionary founder, there comes a moment where the fog thickens. You have a brilliant product, a world-changing service, and a passion that burns bright—yet, when you speak to the market, it feels like you're shouting into a void. You’ve been told to "scale," to "optimize," and to "leverage AI," but most of the advice feels like a cage, forcing your creative genius into a cookie-cutter system that doesn't fit the way you think.Enter Will Leach.Will is not your average marketing consultant. He is a master of the subconscious, a bridge-builder between the complex world of behavioral science and the cutting-edge potential of artificial intelligence. In this session, Will reveals the hidden architecture of human decision-making. He explains that 95% of why your customers buy from you (or don't) has nothing to do with logic or features—it has everything to do with "Mindstates."For the entrepreneur who feels "Fogbound" by generic strategies or "Storm-Tossed" by the sheer volume of AI-generated noise, Will offers a different path: The Upward Spiral of psychological resonance. He discusses the critical shift from "Efficiency AI"—simply doing things faster—to "Effective AI"—doing things that actually matter to the human heart.Will’s work focuses on creating "EQ Personas"—digital customer models that don't just list demographics, but breathe with the emotional depth of your actual audience. This is about reclaiming your vision. It's about building a brand that isn't just known or liked, but deeply, fundamentally trusted.If you are a nonlinear thinker tired of "AI sloaganda" and ready to navigate the fog with a scientific compass, Will Leach is the guide you've been waiting for. This conversation is the lighthouse signal for any founder who knows that to grow sustainably, they must first understand the soul of their customer.
