The Great Flip: How AI Changed the Shape of Work in 2025
<p>This special Christmas and New Year bonus episode is a pause. We're looking back at 2025 and thinking about what surfaced across a year of conversations with builders, executives, philosophers, and operators working close to AI.</p><p>Across industries and roles, the same shift kept appearing. Work isn't disappearing per se... but it is changing. Flipping.</p><p>Humans are moving upstream. Away from direct execution and toward enabling, guiding, and judging systems that now do the work itself. Execution is cheaper than it has ever been. Direction, responsibility, and wisdom are not.</p><p>This bonus episode weaves together moments from Season 2 through Season 4 to explore what that flip feels like in practice, what it costs in terms of agency and meaning, and what it now requires from leaders and builders. You will hear reflections on relief, anxiety, creativity, formation, and the quiet risk of losing a sense of future self.</p><p>If this year left you excited, uneasy, or tired trying to keep up with AI, this episode is meant to help you step back and see the shape of the moment more clearly.</p><p><strong>🎧 Episodes Featured in This Recap</strong></p><p><strong>Season 2</strong></p><ul><li>Patrick Belliveau: E01 - <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/1875537/">https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/1875537/</a></li><li>Jennifer Moss: E03 - <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/1917877/">https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/1917877/</a></li><li>Bijan Vaez: E04 - <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/1940948/">https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/1940948/</a></li><li>Chyngyz Dzhumanazarov: E07 - <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2041601/">https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2041601/</a></li><li>Mike Kirkup: E08 - <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2061508/">https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2061508/</a></li></ul><p><strong>Season 3</strong></p><ul><li>Christopher Watkin: E02 - <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2167772/">https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2167772/</a></li><li>Dr. K: E03 - <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2178635/">https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2178635/</a></li></ul><p><strong>Season 4</strong></p><ul><li>Josh Muller: E05 - <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2282863/">https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2282863/</a></li><li>Ahmad Iqbal: E07 - <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2309358/">https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2309358/</a></li><li>Alex Maier: E09 - <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2328700/">https://rss.com/podcasts/manaryhaus/2328700/</a></li></ul><p><strong>🎄 Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year! </strong>Thank you for listening, sharing, and building thoughtfully with us.
