Erika Stanley helps business owners unlock the real power of AI by starting where most conversations skip entirely: brand clarity.

As a Human-First Brand and AI Strategist and founder of Mile End Digital and AI Queens, Erika works with women solopreneurs who are already smart, capable, and experimenting with AI, but feel stuck with generic outputs that don’t sound like them or support how they actually work.

Her approach flips the usual AI narrative on its head. Instead of chasing tools or hacks, Erika focuses on customizing AI using a business’s real voice, offers, values, and strategy. The result is AI that feels like an extension of the founder rather than a replacement.

Erika speaks about brand-first AI, ethical and practical customization, and how founders can scale without becoming interchangeable or burned out.
