In this AI marketing podcast episode, Dan Sanchez and Ken Freire break down how your personal core values are your greatest unfair advantage in the age of AI.

They walk through a step-by-step roadmap for identifying and clarifying your core values and how to turn them into magnetic forces in your marketing, leadership, and business.
