ER EP1 Season 3 Meghan Stabler | Reinventing Yourself in the Age of AI

Just wrapped a powerful conversation with Meghan Stabler — and we went deep on AI, enterprise software, and what’s really happening in today’s job market. Now co-founder of Alentor, Meghan ...is building a new category around contextual AI pricing, and her perspective is grounded and battle-tested.

Meghan's take? AI is the Wild West. It can get you 80–90% there — but you still have to trust and verify.

We talked about how AI is reshaping teams, shrinking roles, and forcing even seasoned executives to reinvent themselves. She was candid about the risk of building a startup, the self-doubt that comes with it, and the reality that great talent is struggling in this market. The lesson: innovation isn’t just about product — sometimes you have to innovate yourself.

Bottom line: AI can scale systems, but it can’t replace heart. Culture, experimentation, and strong leadership still win. If you’re building in eCommerce or enterprise tech right now, don’t lose the human element. And if you need a world-class marketer who understands AI, enterprise, and growth — Meghan’s someone you should know.Show More
