What if the problem isn’t AI... it’s your refusal to evolve? In this episode, Ethan unpacks a raw conversation he had after delivering a keynote for a room full of coffee, tea, and water industry leaders. These are real businesses still bleeding from the shift to remote work. Now AI’s cutting deeper. One man pulled Ethan aside and said what many are thinking: “AI is killing my business.” That one comment sparked a deeper conversation about blame, reinvention, and why clinging to the old way might be the most dangerous move of all.

What’s the difference between a pivot and a realignment? How do you know when it’s time to reinvent? What if the office never comes back—then what? Can you still grow in an industry that's shrinking?
