BAP Ep. 7 - The Advisor Leap Part 5: The Advisor Leap and the AI Question with Heather Esposito

July 7, 2026·48 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

AI isn't just changing accounting workflows—it's changing what clients need most from their advisors. As part of a five-part series, Heather Esposito joins us to reframe the fear of "being replaced" into a powerful question: what makes you irreplaceably human? She shares why anxiety shuts down good decision-making, how accountants can shift from having all the answers to navigating uncertainty with clients, and why real growth takes practice, feedback, and vulnerability. If you want to feel more confident—and more valuable—in an AI-driven profession, this conversation will change how you think about your future.
