In this study, we optimize chiral interactions at next-to-next-to leading order to observables in two- and three-nucleon systems and compute Gamow-Teller transitions in ¹⁴C and ^22,24O using consistent two-body currents. We compute spectra of the daughter nuclei ¹⁴N and ^22,24F via an isospin-breaking coupled-cluster technique, with several predictions. The two-body currents reduce the Ikeda sum rule, corresponding to a quenching factor q²≈0.84–0.92 of the axial-vector coupling. Finally, the half-life of ¹⁴C depends on the energy of the first excited 1⁺ state, the three-nucleon force, and the two-body current.
