Conscious Creativity in the Age of AI with guest Lyric Kinard
Welcome to PART 4 in our summer series: Conscious Creativity in the Age of AI.
This series features real conversations with real entrepreneurs, creators, and thought leaders about how they’re navigating the rise of artificial intelligence in their business, content, and creative expression.
In this episode, Vickie Dickson sits down with Lyric Kinard, internationally renowned fiber artist, teacher, and speaker, for a rich, grounded conversation about AI, art, and what it means to stay in integrity with your creativity.
Lyric shares her experience using AI in her writing and content creation, where it helps - and where it falls flat. Together, she and Vickie unpack the nuances of authorship, voice, originality, and the spiritual depth that handmade, heart-made work brings to the world.
