Hello to you listening in Fremont, California!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.In college I was taught by lay faculty and Benedictine monks.  Today I follow Joan Chittister, an American Benedictine nun, theologian, author, and speaker who is known for being an outspoken advocate of justice, peace and equality focusing on the empowerment of women.In her book, The Monastic Heart - 50 Simple Practices for a Contemplative and Fulfilling Life, Chittister writes, “A spirituality of work is that process by which you finally come to know that your work is God's work, unfinished by God because God meant it to be finished by you.” I say my work is "helping women shape and share their story by discovering: Who am I? What's my why or work? How do I do my work differently?"But the notion of “spirituality of work” puts a different spin on things. Is this truly my work? If so, how is it meant to be finished by me?Story Prompt: What's your work and how will you finish it? Write that story! And tell it out loud!You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!" Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us!

This months prompt and how best to use it: “When you think about love, what stories have you carried with you — and where did they come from? A song? A movie? Something you were told growing up?” Take a few quiet minutes to reflect on the romantic beliefs you've internalized over the years. Which ones shaped how you loved — or stayed — in your relationship? Are there ideas that no longer feel true? Which ones still feel like a part of you, and which ones are asking to be rewritten? You're not blaming yourself — you're just getting curious. Because healing your story often starts with noticing who helped write it. - - - - - - --  Want that chapter checklist just Click Here!

Preisverhandlung auf Augenhöhe: Warum deine Vorqualifizierung über deinen Umsatz entscheidet   Viele Selbstständige und Freelancer stolpern immer wieder über den gleichen Fehler: Sie machen ein Angebot, ohne zu wissen, mit wem sie es eigentlich zu tun haben – und was auf der anderen Seite wirklich erwartet wird. In dieser Episode sprechen wir darüber, warum eine konsequente Vorqualifizierung vor dem Angebot das A und O ist, wie du mit mutigen Fragen echten Einblick bekommst und warum du dich nie unter Wert verkaufen solltest.   Birgit Körting auf LinkedIn: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/birgitkoerting/   Wer fragt, führt und gewinnt Wenn du zu früh in ein Angebot gehst, ohne vorher die Rahmenbedingungen zu kennen, verschenkst du Potenzial. Nicht nur finanziell, sondern auch strategisch. Deshalb gilt: Redeanteil bei dir maximal 10 Prozent. Der Rest gehört dem potenziellen Kunden. Frag nach dem Budget, nach der Erwartung, nach der internen Kalkulation. Und hör genau hin. Wer das nicht tut, landet schnell bei 800 Euro Tageshonorar während der Kunde 2.000 für dich einkalkuliert hat.   Open Book statt Black Box Transparenz ist kein Risiko, sondern ein Vertrauensvorschuss. Wer mit einer Open-Book-Policy arbeitet, schafft ein klares Wertesystem. Gerade im Kontext von Agenturen oder Freelance-Plattformen, bei denen Margen oft verschleiert werden, ist Offenheit ein echter Game Changer. Das heißt nicht, dass du alles preisgeben musst... aber du darfst klare Fragen stellen. Und wenn dein Angebot "nicht abbildbar" ist, ist das ein wichtiger Hinweis. Kein Rückschlag.   Entscheider, Mitentscheider, Influencer Ein weiteres Schlüsselelement in der Vorqualifizierung: Wer sitzt wirklich mit am Tisch? Wer trifft die Entscheidung? Und wer beeinflusst sie im Hintergrund? Wenn du deine Angebote mit Menschen verhandelst, die gar nicht entscheiden dürfen, bist du machtlos. Klarheit über die Rollen im Prozess ist essenziell – sonst wirst du nach drei erfolgreichen Gesprächsrunden plötzlich mit einem Einkäufer konfrontiert, der nochmal 10 Prozent runterhandeln will.   Fazit: Mutig sein. Fragen stellen. Verantwortung übernehmen. Vorqualifizierung ist keine lästige Pflicht, sie ist deine Chance, das Projekt in deinem Sinne zu gestalten. Wer den Kunden wirklich versteht, kann ein passgenaues Angebot machen, das beide Seiten zufriedenstellt. Und das beginnt nicht beim Preis, sondern bei der Haltung. Frag nach. Hör zu. Und triff eine bewusste Entscheidung: Willst du zu diesen Konditionen arbeiten – oder eben nicht.       Noch mehr von den Koertings ...  Das KI-Café ... jede Woche Mittwoch (>350 Teilnehmer) von 08:30 bis 10:00 Uhr ... online via Zoom .. kostenlos und nicht umsonstJede Woche Mittwoch um 08:30 Uhr öffnet das KI-Café seine Online-Pforten ... wir lösen KI-Anwendungsfälle live auf der Bühne ... moderieren Expertenpanel zu speziellen Themen (bspw.

Thought for 17s

If you're tired of chasing one-off ebook/course sales and want income that stacks every month, a low-key membership is the fastest, simplest path—built with tools you already use (Zoom + Facebook/WhatsApp + your email service). In my latest Blogger Genius episode, I break down the exact approach (plus 2 copy-and-paste AI prompts) to design, launch, and grow a membership that compounds without burning you out. Show Notes: MiloTree Free Plan Low-Key Membership Prompt Pack Digital Product Ladder AI Prompt (Free Download) 6 Purchasing Triggers Test Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: iTunes YouTube Spotify TL;DR (Problem → Solution) Problem: One-off product sales force you to keep launching and promoting to make money and for many people that is hard. Solution: A low-key membership: 2 Zoom sessions/month + lightweight community + simple emails. That's it. Recurring payments keep coming in—even when you're not launching. Why “Low-Key Memberships” Win in 2025 Recurring revenue > one-offs: Each new member adds to your baseline. Members stay for community, not modules: Overstuffed content = churn. Connection and momentum = retention. Zero tech headaches: Use platforms people already check daily (FB/WhatsApp) and Zoom they already know. Real-world results shared in the episode: Weight-loss creator: $300/mo → $2,800/mo with Zoom + private FB group. Anxiety coach: $4,100/mo with WhatsApp + biweekly calls. Your Starter Stack (Keep It Simple) Delivery: 2 Zoom sessions/month (Teaching + Q&A). Community: Facebook Group or WhatsApp for quick wins + peer support. Communication: Your existing email service provider (Mailchimp, MailerLite, Flodesk, ConvertKit). Payments & pages: MiloTree—AI sales pages, Stripe checkout, recurring billing. Start free to grow your list; upgrade when you're ready to accept membership payments. 7-Day Launch Plan (No Pre-Recorded Library) Day 1: Pick your promise (one painful problem you'll help members solve monthly). Day 2: Post your interest waitlist with a freebie (see below). Day 3: Price: $27–$97/mo. Add a 10× annual option (e.g., $47/mo or $470/yr). Day 4: Create an outline for your first month's sessions. Day 5: Open your MiloTree membership (AI sales page + Stripe billing). Day 6: DM warm leads (from FB groups/WhatsApp/LinkedIn) with your waitlist link. Day 7: Host a founders' kickoff (set expectations, celebrate early wins). Pro tip: Build with your members. Teach what they ask for next. That “fluid plan” keeps content laser-relevant and retention high. Copy-and-Paste AI Prompts (Use These to Build It Fast) Prompt #1 — Design your membership “Design a low-key membership for my expertise in [YOUR NICHE]. I want something simple that builds community using free platforms people already know. First, validate my niche using these six purchasing triggers: makes money, saves money, saves time, moves toward happiness, moves away from pain, raises social status (explain which apply). Then create a concept that: meets twice monthly (1 teaching call, 1 Q&A via Zoom); uses Facebook Groups/Discord/WhatsApp for interaction; uses email for schedules/recordings/updates; focuses on implementation (not info overload); builds naturally without tons of pre-created content; develops a supportive community; and is priced $27–$97/mo. Finally, give me the name, core promise, monthly structure, and an engagement + referral strategy.” Prompt #2 — Find your first members “I'm launching the [MEMBERSHIP NAME] from the previous prompt. Give me the 10 best places to attract ideal members with specific strategies. Include communities, social platforms, networking, and partnerships. For each, show how to introduce my offer naturally (not salesy), what value to lead with, and how to start DMs that convert. Also give me 5 content ideas that demonstrate expertise and nudge people toward ongoing support.” Pricing & Positioning (Simple Rules) Start $27–$97/mo; add a 10× annual plan to boost cash flow and commitment. Promise one result per month (not a giant library). Sell outcomes: “From stuck to consistent posting,” “From chaos to meal-prep routine,” “From anxiety spiral to daily calm.” Retention Playbook (Why Members Stay) Two predictable touchpoints (Teaching + Q&A). Community micro-wins (weekly check-ins, share wins, peer feedback). Fluid curriculum (teach what members ask for next). Use MiloTree to Power It (Free → Paid, Without Friction) Start free: Use MiloTree Free Plan to build your list fast—create an AI-generated opt-in page for your freebie, store the file, and deliver it automatically. When ready to charge: Upgrade to accept recurring membership payments—MiloTree auto-generates your sales page with AI and runs Stripe billing for you. Set monthly + annual prices in minutes. Freebie to Kickstart Signups Offer something your ideal member can use this week, e.g.: “7-Day Kickstart Calendar” “Swipe Files: Posts/Emails/Templates” “Quick-Wins Checklist” My freebie: Low-Key Membership AI Prompt Pack—the exact prompts above, ready to paste and launch. (Grab it below.) Show Notes / Resources MiloTree Free Plan – start building your email list and delivering freebies today. Low-Key Membership AI Prompt Pack (Free) – copy, paste, launch. Set Up Your Membership in MiloTree – add your name, price (monthly + annual), and let AI build your page; Stripe handles recurring payments. FAQ Do I need a content library before launch? No. Teach live, capture recordings, and let member questions shape the roadmap. That's what keeps it relevant and light for you. Which platform for community? Pick where your audience already is (FB Group, Instagram, Discord, WhatsApp, Slack, etc.). Lower friction = higher engagement. How soon can I hit $1K/month? Many creators reach their first $1K within ~90 days using this simple stack and outreach. Your mileage varies—but the model compounds. Call to Action

Send us a textWhat if teaching your kids about AI felt as simple as asking a smart friend for help at the grocery store?In this episode of AI for Kids, we dig into one big question every parent is asking: What's a prompt—and why should kids learn to use one?Together, we explore:Can kids love science but hate math and still thrive in STEM?How can you explain prompts to kids so it “clicks” right away?What simple, fun prompts can kids try—from making coloring pages to writing stories?What does it mean to think “AI-first,” and how can kids apply that mindset in everyday life?Why starting small (with just three things you don't want to do this week) is the easiest way for kids and parents to get comfortable with AI.Ashley also shares her new 10-day course designed to help future business owners use AI to turn their ideas into action—plus we get into her own journey from science lover to business builder.

Ved du egentlig, hvor meget strøm, du bruger, hver gang du skriver en prompt i en AI app?Hvor meget strøm kræves der egentlig for at lave en prompt? Det har vi diskuteret i et stykke tid uden, at vi egentlig har fået et svar. Jeg har hørt flere folk læne sig op ad en påstand om, at en prompt svarer til 40 mobilopladninger, hvilket står i stærk konstrast til, at jeg på min smartphone har en lokal app, der kan køre fleres forskellige sprogmodeller lokalt - uden at det dræner mit batteri nævneværdigt. Og nu hævder Google, at en prompt på deres AI tjeneste Gemini svarer til at se tv i 9 sekunder.Her i Techtopia har jeg også talt med kloge folk, som har redegjort for forskellige estimater, men problemet har hidtil været, at AI virksomhederne har holdt deres tal for sig selv - det har simpelthen knebet med transparens.Men på det seneste er der kommet tal fra både franske Mistral og amerikanske OpenAI. Og for et par uger siden udgav Google det hidtil mest omfattendes whitepaper om energiforbruget på firmaets AI-tjeneste Gemini.Spørgsmålet er, hvad Googles whitepaper fortæller os, og om vi kan bruge det til at sammenligne de forskellige tjenester og dermed skabe et mere retvisende overblik over energiforbruget, når det handler om de store sprogmodeller?Derfor har vi inviteret Google i studiet for at redegøre for, hvordan de er nået frem til, at en prompt svarer til at se tv i ni sekunder.Bagefter får vi en ekspert i sprogmodellers energiforbrug til at sætte Googles whitepaper i perspektiv.Medvirkende:Jesper Vangkilde; kommunikationschef, Google Danmark.Kasper Groes Albin Ludvigsen , forperson, Danish Data Science Community.Link:Googles whitepaperhttps://services.google.com/fh/files/misc/measuring_the_environmental_impact_of_delivering_ai_at_google_scale.pdf

The real blocker usually isn't your product; it's confidence and not knowing what to say or where to say it. In this post, I'll show you two quick AI prompts that flip that script and give you the exact words and plan to promote—plus how to publish a ready-to-buy sales page with MiloTree's Free Plan in minutes (no website needed). Show Notes: MiloTree Confidence and Promotion AI Prompt Pack (Free Download) Digital Product Ladder AI Prompt (Free Download) 6 Purchasing Triggers Test Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: iTunes YouTube Spotify The Real Problem: “Who am I to sell this?” Most creators stall after hitting “publish” because they're afraid to promote. The result? Crickets—not because the product is bad, but because no one heard about it enough times to buy. The fix is a mindset + messaging shift you can trigger with AI in under a minute. The 60-Second Fix: Copy/Paste These 2 Prompts Prompt #1 — Confidence & Language Paste this into your AI tool: Act as my business coach and mindset mentor. I've created a digital product about [TOPIC] but I feel nervous promoting it. Remind me why my experience has value, explain how selling helps people, write me a confident script for talking about my product, and give me 5 places to share it today. Be encouraging but honest. This gives you: a quick reframe, a confidence boost, and a short script you can actually use in DMs, posts, and conversations. Prompt #2 — Distribution Plan (What to Post & Where) I'm ready to promote with confidence. Give me 10 places to share my product today with exact words for each platform (helpful, not salesy). Include social media, email ideas, and networking conversation starters. Also give me a simple 7-day promotion schedule. This turns “random posting” into a repeatable weekly cadence that compounds—how you go from your first $100 to your first $1,000. Make Buying Frictionless: Use MiloTree (Free Plan) Confidence is great—but people still need a place to buy. Here's the fast path with MiloTree: Set up your product in MiloTree → choose Digital Download. Name, price, and upload your PDF or file (e.g., “Time Management for Busy Moms” at $27). Click Create Sales Page → MiloTree's AI writes your sales copy for you. Get one shareable link you can paste everywhere (social, email, DMs).

 Hello to you listening in Ellsworth, Maine!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Long ago in China there were cities surrounded with towering walls and magnificent gates. The gates let people in and out of the city but more importantly the gate was the place where the soul of the city resided. How do you build such a gate?People would collect the bleached bones of warriors from the old battlefields and carry them back to the city where they were sealed inside the newly constructed gate. The hope was that the long dead warriors would protect the city in exchange for being remembered. When the gate was finished it was sprinkled with the blood of a specially chosen animal because it was believed that adding blood to the dead bones would bring the souls of the warriors back to life. [Inspired by Sputnik Sweetheart, by Haruki Murakami  published 2001 - pages 15 to 16]Writing your story is much like this. To begin gather together the bones of the story for shape and structure. But a story is organic; it needs a soul to live and breathe. Invoke the "sorcery of stories" to link the world of your words with the world of your imagination and you'll create the soul of your story.Story Prompt: Where might the soul of your story reside? What will bring it to life? Write that story! And tell it out loud! Practical Tip: The magic of stories is also in the sharing. If you wish share your story with someone or something.  All that matters is you have a story.You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!" Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us!

Happy Friday, everyone! I'm back with another round of updates. This week I've got four stories that capture the messy, fascinating reality of AI right now. From fast food drive-thrus to research to consulting giants, the headlines tell one story, while what's underneath is where leaders need to focus.Here's a quick rundown. Taco Bell's AI experiment went viral for all the wrong reasons, but there's more behind it than memes. Then, I look at new adoption data from the US Census Bureau that some are using to argue AI is already slowing down. I'll also break down KPMG's much-mocked 100-page prompt, sharing why I think it's actually a model of how to do this well. Finally, I close with a case study on AI coaching almost going sideways and how shifting the approach created a win instead of a talent drain.With that, let's get into it.⸻Taco Bell's AI Drive-Thru DilemmaHeadlines are eating up the viral “18,000 cups of water” order. However, nobody seems to catch that Taco Bell has already processed over 2 million successful AI-assisted orders. This makes the story more complicated. The conclusion shouldn't be scrapping AI. It's about designing smarter safeguards, balancing human oversight, and avoiding the trap of binary “AI or no AI” thinking.⸻Is AI Adoption Really Declining?New data from Apollo suggests AI adoption is trending downward in larger companies, sparking predictions of a coming slowdown. Unfortunately, the numbers don't tell the whole story. Smaller companies are still on the rise. Add to that, even the “decline” in big companies may not be what it seems. Many are using AI so much it's becoming invisible. I explain why this is more about maturity than decline and explain what opportunities smaller players now have.⸻KPMG's 100-Page Prompt: A Joke or a Blueprint?Some mocked KPMG for creating a “hundred-page prompt,” but what they actually did was map complex workflows into AI-readable processes. This isn't busywork; it's the future of enterprise AI. By going slow to go fast, KPMG is showing what serious implementation looks like, freeing humans to focus on the “chewy problems” that matter most.⸻Case Study: Rethinking AI CoachingA client nearly rolled out AI coaching without realizing it could accelerate attrition by empowering talent to leave. Thankfully, by analyzing engagement data with AI first, we identified cultural risks and reshaped the rollout to support, not undermine, the workforce.

How many times a day do I tell my son what to do next? In this rebroadcast from 2015, our Head of Middle School Andrew Reed offers his ideas on cultivating an environment at home (and in the classroom) where boys can develop their own academic will.

Mr. Reed explains how this counterintuitive pair works together to teach a boy to choose the good for himself.

AI is here, and today is the worst it is ever going to be. But there are also over 8 billion human beings, so the biggest question of all is - how are we going to cooperate and even co-exist? Is AI here to take all the jobs or create economic and scientific super-abundance? And for human health, will we all carry a personal AI health agent in our pockets helping us live healthier and happier and prevent disease, and will AI cure every single cancer by 2030?
