HUMAN FIRST APPROACH TO AI with Leanne Shelton

Scared AI will replace you? My guest Leanne Shelton will share how to flip your mindset — and use AI to your advantage.

Leanne is the CEO and Founder of HumanEdge AI Training, where she helps leaders and professionals around the world navigate the fast-changing world of AI with confidence. With a background in marketing, copywriting, and training, she brings a rare blend of communication skills and technical insight, making AI accessible to people who don’t consider themselves “techy.”

After running a successful content agency for over a decade, Leanne pivoted into AI training and has since delivered coaching, keynote presentations, and conference workshops across Australia and Southeast Asia. Her people-first philosophy focuses on using AI ethically, effectively, and in ways that enhance — not replace — human connection.

Leanne is also the author of AI-Human Fusion, a practical guide to understanding and applying AI for busy professionals. Through her work, she’s helped thousands of people shift their mindset, unlock new opportunities, and see AI as a partner rather than a threat.

In this episode, Leanne shares her insights on the future of AI, why a human-first approach matters, and how anyone can start using it with confidence.
