Ep 28: What happens when the industry you’ve built your career in suddenly changes, thanks to AI? And what if the hustle starts to feel like you're shouting into a void?

In this powerful conversation, Brittany Lynn Lewis—producer, writer, actress, and co-founder of Just US Studios—shares what it really felt like to watch her freelance copywriting work slowly evaporate. She was a thriving copywriter with dream clients, consistent referrals, and six-figure launches... until AI stepped in. But instead of chasing the algorithm, Brittany chose to pivot, and what happened next surprised even her.

We talk about the quiet collapse of stable work, the myth of being “booked and blessed,” and the creative clarity that comes when you stop forcing what’s not working. Brittany also reflects on her decision to move to NYC, the importance of proximity for creatives, and why not every controversial post is worth your energy.

Whether you’re a creator navigating change, a freelancer wondering if it’s you or the market, or someone rethinking what success really looks like, this episode is your permission slip to pivot and pursue what lights you up.

Why listen?

If you’re navigating change, doubting your path, or wondering how to stay human in a high-tech world, Brittany delivers:

🔥 What happens when AI actually does take your job

🔥 How to pivot with purpose instead of panic

🔥 The power of proximity and showing up in the right rooms
