Episode Summary
In this episode, I sit down with Celia to explore something we don’t often stop to think about: how much of our identity is actually shaped by choice. From design in our everyday lives to the deeper layers of heritage and archaeology, we unpack how identity isn’t fixed — it’s constructed through our environment, our experiences, and the decisions we make along the way. Celia shares her personal journey through major life transitions, including parenthood and relocation, and how archaeology and heritage can meaningfully support well-being during times of change.
We also dive headfirst into one of today’s biggest conversations: AI and its impact on jobs, society, and the future of work. Is AI replacing us — or redefining us? We talk about transferable skills, ethical regulation, social prescribing, and why AI might reflect existing systemic problems rather than create new ones. This conversation is thoughtful, honest, and future-focused — and it might just change how you see both your identity and your role in an AI-driven world.
