Michael Cupps kicks off episode two of Season 3 with Joey Chandler, founder of Certain Growth Solutions and creator of the Alignment Engine framework. Chandler walks through how identifying three core values (not goals, not categories) changes the way people show up under stress, at 3am, and everywhere in between.
The conversation covers the six-question process Chandler built after his own burnout, how those questions work as both a performance tool and a recovery tool, and what happens when someone's public persona drifts away from what they actually value. Chandler shares a client story about a divorce, a TikTok following built on anger, and the choice to walk away from what wasn't working.
Cupps and Chandler also dig into AI: what changes when you feed your values into a tool like Claude or Gemini, and why the same technology that makes AI more useful to you is the technology that could replace you if you're not careful about what you're actually asking it to do.
The episode closes with Chandler's own answer to the Season 3 signature question: what he's handed off to AI, and why.
