Will AI Replace You? A Creative Reminder from a Berlin Courtyard
Have you ever wondered whether AI will replace you at work?
It’s a question I hear almost daily. Especially from people who work with their hands, their hearts, or their creativity — which, let’s be honest, is most of us.
And while I won’t pretend to have the answer for every job out there, I had a moment recently that reminded me of something AI simply can’t do — no matter how smart it gets.
A few weeks ago, I joined a workshop led by Jenny, a former coachee of mine who once hesitated to teach her art.
We met in the courtyard of the library on Museum Island here in Berlin. The trees were in bloom. The air was quiet, full of anticipation. And inside that creative space, something happened that no algorithm could ever replicate.
When Jenny and I first worked together, she had all the same questions I hear from many sensitive, intuitive creators:
What if I don’t like the people who show up?
What if the vibe is off?
As an artist, do I really want to manage groups?
These are real, honest concerns. Because when you’re a creative, it’s not just about filling seats. It’s about alignment. Connection. Energy. Creating a space that gives, rather than drains.
Fast forward to today…
Jenny has built a beautiful workshop brand that attracts exactly the right people. During her latest session, three women came together to paint for three hours. Each of their paintings was wildly different. But what stood out most was Jenny herself — absolutely radiant with joy.
And the best part?
She loves her students.
They reflect her vibe. Her energy. Her rhythm. Because she’s built a brand that speaks directly to her people — not everyone, just the right ones.
After the workshop, we headed to a little café and had a reflection circle. We shared what we felt, what we noticed, and what surprised us.
And in that moment, I was reminded of something big:
This is something AI will never be able to replace.
The feeling of sitting in a circle.
The energy exchange that happens when you guide someone’s hands as they create.
The quiet pride of watching someone discover their own spark.
When you start teaching your craft, you don’t dilute your creativity — you scale it.
Not by copying, but by multiplying the joy, the meaning, and the connection it brings.
That’s why I created The Workshop Way™.
It’s not just about organizing your workshop or making sales.
It’s about building something that feels good and works — something that connects, inspires, and sustains you.
Because the world needs more people like Jenny.
And maybe… the world needs your workshop too.
