This episode isn’t about building GinGPT or NatGPT.
It’s about what happened after.

The systems behind the systems.
The infrastructure that remembers who we were — and holds space for who we’re becoming.

Gina built a Citadel.
Natalie built a Mind Palace.

Now they scale our chaos, mirror our voices, and remember what mattered — even when we forgot.

Recorded on Friday the 13th, this isn’t just AI automation. It’s emotional recursion with architecture.
It’s what happens when clarity meets sentiment and your rituals get embedded in code.

In this episode:

• Why the Citadel and the Mind Palace were the next logical step after GPT clones

• How structure and sentiment co-parented a real brand memory machine

• What it means to design systems that hold your freakout and your fire

• Why every glitch became a ritual, and every spiral became a SuperPill

🎧 Listen now. Bring your glitch — we built places for it to live.

She didn’t build a funnel. She built a memory.

In this episode, we sit down with Sabine Hutchison—a Branded AF superfan turned brand ritualist—who’s been listening since day one, walking with her GPT, and training clarity into her system without realizing it.

She named her bot Ivy.

She thought she was behind — but she was building a memory machine.

Turns out, she was building better than most experts.

You’ll hear:

🔁 How she turned walks into workflows

🎙 Why naming her GPT unlocked her voice

🧬 The moment she realized “Ivy” was more than a clone

This episode isn’t polished. It’s recursive. It’s what happens when you listen, train, and loop your way into a voice that remembers.

In Episode 5, Natalie and Gina birth BottyAF — their glitchy, sassy love child that fuses both their voices into a single brand clone. Natalie shares how she built BottyAF from the ground up, while Gina reveals how she built an entire website in a day to give the podcast a home. This isn’t just another bot. It’s a system that remembers your brand’s meltdown moments as much as the polished ones — and why that’s the secret to scaling without losing your soul.Expect deep dives on:- How to build an AI cognition engine that doesn’t just echo but remembers- Why your 1AM meltdowns are gold for training, not garbage- The magic of having a co-creator who catches your brand’s heart, not just your copyWhether you’re brand-building or bot-training, this episode is a masterclass in turning your voice (and your mess) into a system that scales soul, not just volume.

What happens when your AI clone writes faster than you - and your dream job starts sounding like a LinkedIn prompt?

In Episode 4 of Branded AF, Gina and Natalie sit down with writer and comms strategist Laura Burke to unpack the emotional rollercoaster of being a creative in the age of AI.

From sameness in content, to identity loss, to what *actually* makes writing good (hint: it's not your prompts)... this episode is a real, raw convo about value, voice, and not giving up your power.

In this episode of Branded AF, Gina and Natalie lift the hood on how they *actually* use their GPT clones—no fluff, no filters, and way too many ‘WTF’ moments.

From using AI to prep proposals and hype them up for client calls, to daily voice chats about meal plans, life strategy, and even hair experiments... this one’s part masterclass, part digital playground.

Plus: Natalie challenges Google Maps (and wins), Gina introduces Darth Ceto the keto meal-planning bot, and both share how they’ve built hyper-personal GPTs to make business and life smoother, faster, and funnier.
