Hey Reader, So apparently I like getting absolutely obliterated by my ChatGPT.... This prompt had me shooketh. I even read some of the responses to my sister in law and she was ROARING with laughter because it was just "so true." FYI: this is not my prompt. This is my friend Maritza's prompt (fellow AI fanatic). I sent her several voice notes about how I was slaughtered by her prompt and yet, it gave me some big wake-up calls (which is strange because yes, this is a robot). Wanna see a few of...

Hey Reader! Just wrapped up 2 jam packed days at Laylee Emadi's Creative Educator's Conference here in Dallas.... glamorously tired pic of me in the Hyatt lobby at 1:55 AM I was one of the final five still chatting—about AI, operations, and all my fave nerdy things. It felt like 2017 again (back when I went to 62 events in a single year… yes, really 😅). I’ve got a full lineup of events coming up this quarter, and there’s one thing I always do at in-person (and even virtual) events when...

Hey Reader! I just got back from an incredible event in Canada called High Vibe Women - seriously incredible! (fun fact: they are looking for speakers for their event in October) I spoke about how being small is actually a super power for collaborations. And I'm actually doing that similar talk in Florida next month (use this $50 off coupon)! People get really wrapped up with the big numbers and big audience. But I've never really relied on that in my own business still to this day. It comes...

Hey Reader! I just did my first presentation on micro tools last week and let me tell you… I’ve never gotten more WOWs and shock emojis as I did showing truly how ideas are becoming realities within 5 minutes...5 MINUTES!

Just an idea + AI + the right setup = a fully functional tool you can sell, use, or automate something annoying...

While also helping me to implement self-study courses faster, script Reels, and even apply for speaking opportunities... I shared it on Instagram, but wanted to share it here too because...
