We are living through one of the most significant shifts in how work and life operate.
Artificial intelligence is not just changing technology. It is changing how we think, decide, learn, and perform.
Yet while organisations invest heavily in AI, and individuals feel the pressure to adapt, one question remains largely unanswered: What must we become capable of now?
Oh Shi(f)t! Now What? explores that question.
Hosted by Kerryn Kohl and drawing directly from the ideas and frameworks explored in her book Oh Shi(f)t! Now What? this podcast brings together conversations, insights, and real-world perspectives on how leaders, organisations, and individuals can navigate disruption—and respond with clarity, capability, and intention.
Each episode cuts through the noise to explore:
- why AI investment isn’t translating into performance
- how leadership and ways of working need to change
- what it takes to build real human capability in an AI-enabled world
- how individuals can redesign their work and lives in the face of uncertainty
This is not a podcast about technology.
It is about:
- capability
- performance
- adaptation
- and designing a life that works in a changing world
If you’re asking:
“What now?”
This is where the conversation begins.

But if we can understand the neuroscience behind it, perhaps we can find ways to make change easier.
