Sarah Baker is an AI, technology, and automation expert who helps audiences build confidence using AI, without needing a technical background (or a PhD in computer science from MIT!)
Sarah didn’t begin her career in tech. She came from real estate, until a major life shift pushed her to rethink how she worked. After her son was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, Sarah needed flexibility and control over her time, which led her into the online business world. What she quickly discovered was that people weren’t struggling because they lacked motivation or intelligence ... they were stuck because technology felt overwhelming, intimidating, and inaccessible.
Instead of backing away from the tech, Sarah leaned in. She learned AI and automation piece by piece, tested it in real-world situations, and developed a practical, human-first way of teaching complex tools in plain language.
Today, Sarah speaks to organizations, leaders, teams, and business owners about how to approach AI with curiosity instead of fear. Her talks focus on demystifying artificial intelligence, replacing overwhelm with confidence, and showing people how AI can support their work without replacing their humanity.
Known for her relatable style, clear explanations, and real-world examples, Sarah breaks down big, fast-moving topics into ideas that actually make sense. Audiences leave her sessions feeling capable, included, and ready to engage with AI... even if they never considered themselves “techy.”
I love making AI feel human, approachable, and safe to explore. I’m energized by conversations about using technology in ways that support creativity, clarity, and better work, not burnout. Breaking down big, fast-moving ideas into simple, practical concepts that make people say, “That finally makes sense,” is my favorite part of what I do.
On a personal note, my family is at the center of everything. I have three kids, and some of my favorite moments are Friday night movie cuddles on the couch, squeezing in trips to Disney World whenever we can, and spending Augusts in Vermont with our extended family. We’re a full-on swim family, which means when I’m not working, you’ll usually find me in my car playing “Mom Uber” ... driving to the pool, from the pool, or parked outside the pool waiting for practice to end.
At the end of the day, both my work and my life are driven by the same belief: technology should support real humans and real lives, not compete with them. Helping people build confidence, create space, and use technology in ways that actually make life easier is what I’m most passionate about, on and off the stage.
My path into AI and technology didn’t start with a love of software ... it started with a life change, and a hospital stay.
When my son was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at three years old, everything shifted overnight. Flexibility was no longer a “nice to have,” it was non-negotiable. I needed to be home, available, and fully present, which meant rethinking how I worked and what kind of career was even possible.
As I transitioned into the online business world, I kept seeing the same pattern again and again. Smart, capable people weren’t failing because they weren’t working hard enough, many were putting in 80+ hour weeks and investing their life savings into their businesses. They were stuck because the technology felt overwhelming. Tools didn’t talk to each other, systems were duct-taped together, and the language around tech felt intimidating and overly complex. (I call this a "Franken-Business"). Everyone else seemed to be “getting it” faster.
Instead of walking away from the tech, I decided to lean in.
I learned slowly, imperfectly, and one piece at a time. I asked the “dumb” questions. I experimented. I broke things. And eventually, things started to click.
Around that same time, a small company called OpenAI released a new product called ChatGPT. It caught my attention, and I had an inkling it might become a big deal ... so I decided to learn how to use it. That decision ended up changing the direction of my work entirely.
What I discovered was this: when technology is taught in a way that feels human, practical, and approachable, people don’t just learn it, they gain confidence. And that confidence changes everything.
Today, I speak and teach about AI, technology, and automation with a human-first approach, helping people move past fear and overwhelm so they can use these tools powerfully, without needing to be “techy.”
You don’t have to be a tech expert to thrive in the AI era.
In this keynote, I take audiences on a journey from overwhelmed to confident, helping them see that AI isn’t here to replace them, it’s here to support them.
We’ll talk about curiosity, courage, and how to ask questions (even the simple ones) that lead to real understanding. Because when people feel safe to learn, they start to grow.
Audience Takeaways:
1. How to replace fear of AI with curiosity and confidence
2. Simple, practical ways to use AI in your work, no jargon, no overwhelm
3. A renewed sense of possibility in how you show up and adapt to change
Learn how to train AI tools to sound like you.
In this workshop, I walk teams and business owners through developing a clear, consistent brand voice (yes, everyone has a brand voice!) and how to use AI to write in that voice so you always sound authentically, awesome like YOU!
You’ll walk away with a practical framework and a saved “voice guide” you can use across all your AI tools, so every piece of content sounds awesomely, authentically like your brand.
In this interactive, step-by-step session, you’ll actually build your very own custom GPT during the training.
I’ll guide you through the setup, naming, and fine-tuning process so you leave with a functional, branded GPT ready to use in your business.
You’ll walk away with your very first custom GPT, built, trained, and tailored to your exact needs, plus the confidence and foundational knowledge to create more on your own.
A guided workshop on using simple, accessible AI tools to save time and spark creativity in your daily work.
There are so many AI tools out there that it can feel like drinking from a fire hose, or so overwhelming that you ignore them all in favor of doing things the “old way.” In this session, I’ll walk you through the tools that are simple, time-saving, budget-friendly, and actually worth your time. No fire hose in sight.
You’ll walk away knowing which AI tools to focus on (and which to skip), plus practical ways to start using AI right away … without needing to be “techy.”
A down-to-earth, hands-on workshop for beginners who want to finally understand ChatGPT. Perfect for audiences who are brand new to AI or who haven’t started using tools like ChatGPT yet.
We’ll go step-by-step through what it is, how it works, and how to use it confidently for everyday writing, brainstorming, and problem-solving… without feeling overwhelmed or “not techy enough.”
You’ll walk away from this workshop feeling confident, capable, and ready to put ChatGPT to work, not just for writing, but for brainstorming, planning, and simplifying your everyday tasks.
