The audio sounded perfect. Too perfect.

That’s what Whitney Joy Smith—one of Canada’s top private investigators—told me when we sat down to talk about AI, trust, and the future of voice.

In this special edition of the Money Matters podcast, we go deep into one of the most uncomfortable truths in today’s tech landscape:

You can no longer assume a voice recording is real.

Whitney shares real-world cases where AI-generated voices nearly destroyed lives, and how investigators are adjusting—not just their tools, but their intuition.

And here’s where it connects to financial advising: In a profession built on trust, how do we navigate a world where even authenticity can be faked?

We talked about:

The rise of deepfake scams and how to spot what’s missing
The emotional cost of over-automation in human relationships
Why the future isn’t about out-teching fraud—but out-humaning it

This episode is part of the research series for my upcoming book, Digital Kaizen for Financial Advisors—where we explore small, sustainable shifts that keep relationships at the heart of everything, even in an AI-driven world.

🎧 Give it a listen. It’s only 13 minutes, and it might change the way you think about your own voice, your own presence, and how you show up.
