Work Wives & Real Lives

Episode 14: “Coming to You Live from the Adriatic (and ChatGPT)”

Ava Bodeau and Katie Nyberg Season 1 Episode 14

This week, Ava & Katie report live from a cruise ship in Croatia — breaking down vacation chaos, reality TV drama, and how they actually use AI to work smarter, not harder. 🌊💻🍾

Katie checks in from somewhere between Dubrovnik and Split (wine in hand - obvi) sharing cruise highlights. Ava reacts from home, pretending not to be jealous. Then, they dive into their favorite ChatGPT hacks — from managing emails to planning trips and even rewriting tense texts — proving that AI isn’t cheating, it’s efficiency.

Later, they get into reality TV commentary, including RHSLC drama, a Rotten Tomato rabbit hole, and Selling Sunset chaos, before wrapping up with final thoughts on delegation, productivity, and how AI helps reclaim time.

Whether you love travel chaos, AI life hacks, or just want a laugh — you’re in the right place!
