Why a Coach-Specific Clone Matters

Welcome to ADHD-ish, where we explore the strengths and struggles of being an entrepreneur with an ADHD brain.

In this episode, host Diann Wingert introduces a groundbreaking new resource – Di AI, her ADHD business coach digital clone, created to be accessible 24/7 for those moments when you need support most, not just during scheduled calls.

Di AI isn’t a replacement for human coaching, but an extension of Diann Wingert’s strategic thinking, built on her coaching frameworks, podcast content, and business methodology.

Diann explores the limits of traditional coaching, the ethical and practical concerns about AI, and the unique training process that ensures Di AI actually reflects Diann Wingert’s distinctive voice and approach.

Fun Fact from the Episode:

The inspiration for this digital clone project started all the way back in 1996, when Dolly the sheep became the world’s first cloned mammal. Diann Wingert admits her first thought was, “OMG, I can clone myself and finally do all the things!” 😂 Turns out, turning that wish into reality just took about thirty years, a platform called Coach Vox, and a lot of fine-tuning!
