The Panic Call That Changed EverythingPicture this: You launched your course seven months ago. Everything's going great. Students are engaged. Then someone asks about the bonuses you promised on the sales page... and you realize you never created them.That's exactly what happened to one of my clients last week. And instead of spiraling into weeks of overwhelm, we fixed it in less than 10 minutes.In This Episode, You'll Learn:Why your AI content sounds generic (and what to do about it)The difference between generic ChatGPT and a trained AI assistantStep-by-step: How we created 3 course bonuses in under 10 minutesWhat you need to train an AI assistant on your business (voice, frameworks, audience)How to set up Claude or ChatGPT with your brand voice guideReal-world reality check: Where this approach fails (so you can avoid it)What you can create once you have a trained AI assistant working for youThe Big Idea:Most coaches and course creators are using AI wrong. They're asking a stranger to write content for their business and wondering why it doesn't sound like them. But when you train an AI assistant on YOUR voice, YOUR frameworks, and YOUR audience? You get content that's accurate, aligned, and ready to use—in minutes, not hours.This Episode Is For You If:✓ You're tired of editing generic AI content that doesn't sound like you ✓ You want to save time on content creation without losing your authentic voice ✓ You're curious about AI but overwhelmed by all the tools and prompts ✓ You're a coach, course creator, or consultant who needs content that converts ✓ You keep putting off projects because they feel too big or time-consumingThe Truth About AI Content Creation:AI isn't going to replace you. But it can help you get your expertise out of your head and into the world faster—IF you train it right. In this episode, I'm showing you exactly how to do that, including the setup work most people skip (and why that's costing them hours of editing time).Resources Mentioned:Claude AI (project-based training)ChatGPT (custom instructions and memory)Free AI Agents Guide - DM me "AGENTS" on Instagram or comment on the YouTube versionConnect With Me:If you want help setting up your own trained AI assistant—not just the tools, but the strategy behind them—this is exactly what I help clients do.

===== MDJ Script/ Top Stories for October 31st Publish Date: October 31st Commercial: From the BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Today is Friday, October 31st and Happy Birthday to John Candy I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Superior Plumbing Taste of Kennesaw is Saturday Marietta honors Rev. Dr. Nelson Price with Roswell Street commemorative naming Students can apply to over 60 Georgia colleges and universities for free in November Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on carrots All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: Ingles Markets 4 STORY 1: Superior Plumbing Taste of Kennesaw is Saturday Mark your calendars—The Superior Plumbing Taste of Kennesaw is back! On Nov. 1, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., downtown Kennesaw (2829 Cherokee Street) will transform into a foodie’s paradise. Picture this: over 30 local restaurants serving up their best bites, a Beer Garden for the grown-ups, live music all day, and even a big screen for catching the games. Kids? They’ll be busy with inflatable slides and bounces while you stroll through the Georgia Grown Member Village. Restaurants like The Melting Pot, Gus’s Fried Chicken, and Williamson Brothers BBQ are just a few of the highlights. Admission’s free, and food samples range from $1 to $10. Proceeds benefit local charities like Shop with a Mustang and KSU Cares. Parking? Plenty—downtown, Adams Park, or First Baptist Church. Questions? Call 770-423-1330 or visit kennesawbusiness.org. Don’t miss it! STORY 2: Marietta honors Rev. Dr. Nelson Price with Roswell Street commemorative naming For 35 years, Rev. Dr. Nelson Price stood at the pulpit of Roswell Street Baptist Church, drawing thousands to hear his sermons. Now, the stretch of Roswell Street from Marietta Square to Cobb Parkway—yes, past the Big Chicken—will honor his legacy as the “Rev. Nelson L. Price Memorial Pathway.” The name of the road isn’t changing, but two signs will mark the tribute. At Wednesday’s dedication, Mayor Steve “Thunder” Tumlin called it a “joyous occasion,” adding, “He wasn’t just a road; he was a pathway—a lamp to our feet.” Price, who passed away in August at 94, left an indelible mark on Cobb County. He mentored students, counseled presidents, baptized thousands, and even delivered Jimmy Carter’s 1977 inauguration address. The church he led grew from 700 members to a 10,000-strong congregation, filling a 4,000-seat sanctuary every Sunday. At the unveiling, friends and family shared stories. Former Braves pitcher Jim Nash recalled meeting Price in 1969: “My wife made me go to church. Best decision ever.” Price’s wife, “Miss Trudy,” thanked everyone, saying Nelson would’ve been humbled. STORY 3: Students can apply to over 60 Georgia colleges and universities for free in November Good news for Georgia high school seniors: college application fees? Waived. Yep, over 60 colleges and universities across the state are letting seniors apply for free this November, thanks to a partnership between the Georgia Student Finance Commission (GSFC), the University System of Georgia, the Technical College System of Georgia, and private schools. No limits, either—apply to as many schools as you want. Fees can add up fast, so this is a big deal for families. If you use the GEORGIA MATCH admissions dashboard, the fee waivers are automatic. Curious? Head to GAfutures.org for the full list of schools and details. GSFC’s goal? Making college more affordable, plain and simple. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info. We’ll be right back. Break: Ingles Markets 4 STORY 4: Gwinnett SWAT team captures Marietta murder suspect A man accused of killing his stepfather in a Marietta apartment shooting is now in custody after a SWAT team arrested him in Gwinnett County. Pharron Carlos Banks, 26, had been on the run since Monday night, when police say he fatally shot 58-year-old Michael Jackson during a domestic dispute at the Briggs at Power Park apartments on Franklin Gateway. Officers arrived just after 6:30 p.m. to find Jackson with multiple gunshot wounds. He was rushed to Wellstar Kennestone Hospital but didn’t survive. Banks fled before police arrived. His car was later found near the Atlanta University Center and brought back to Marietta for evidence processing. On Wednesday, Marietta police tracked Banks to a home in Gwinnett. With a search warrant in hand, Gwinnett’s SWAT team surrounded the house, issued commands, and arrested Banks just after 5 p.m. “Our hearts go out to the family and everyone affected by this tragedy,” Marietta police said, thanking Gwinnett officers for their help. STORY 5: Marietta council tabling measure that would require permit to protest The Marietta City Council hit pause on a proposed ordinance that would require permits for protests, opting to send it back for legal review. Councilwoman Cheryl Richardson made the motion, saying the city needs a constitutional law expert to weigh in. The ordinance, as written, would require groups of five or more to get a permit for an “expression event,” limit protest locations and times, and restrict sound amplification like megaphones. “Expression’s not the issue—it’s volume,” said Mayor Steve “Thunder” Tumlin. Richardson wasn’t sold. “Five people? That’s too small. If seven of us wave on a corner, we’d need a permit? That’s not right,” she said, adding the term “expression” felt off. The committee unanimously agreed to table it. Next meetings: Nov. 10 (work session) and Nov. 12 (voting). And now here is Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on carrots We’ll have closing comments after this.

It may be called a living costs loan, but is it really enough to live on? As the cost of essentials rise rapidly some students say the loans are nowhere near enough to make ends meet. Each year, the government-run agency Studylink adjusts the price of living cost payments in line with inflation. However is linking these vital student loans to inflation a fair way to do it, given the price of essentials like food, rent and power are rising far faster than the rate of inflation? As Evie Richardson reports, some students say the soaring cost of living means they're sacrificing their study just to get by.

When Listening Becomes Healing: The Practice of Radical Listening Professor Christian van Nieuwerburgh (PhD) is a leading academic, consultant, and executive coach whose work bridges the worlds of coaching, positive psychology, and human connection. He serves as Professor of Coaching and Positive Psychology at the Centre for Positive Health Sciences at RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences in Ireland and as a Strategic Partner for the Instructional Coaching Group in the United States. He is a certified executive coach through both the European Mentoring and Coaching Council (Master Practitioner) and the International Coaching Federation (Professional Certified Coach). Christian is widely published in the fields of coaching and positive psychology. His many books include Coaching in Education: Getting Better Results for Students, Educators and Parents, An Introduction to Coaching Skills: A Practical Guide, and Radical Listening: The Art of True Connection, with Robert Biswas-Diener. In this episode, host Shay Beider and Dr. van Nieuwerburgh explore the transformative ideas in his new book, Radical Listening: The Art of True Connection. Christian shares that listening is both a skill and an art and describes the importance of setting a positive intention before engaging with others. He outlines six core listening skills: the internal skills of noticing, quieting, and accepting, and the external skills of acknowledging, questioning, and interjecting. Throughout the conversation, Christian and Shay discuss how listening itself can be a powerful intervention—especially in healthcare settings, where being seen, valued, and heard can promote healing. Drawing from personal experience, Christian highlights the role of compassion and presence in true connection. The duo also explore barriers to communication and how simple acts of acknowledgment—what John Gottman calls turning toward bids—can build stronger bonds. This episode invites us to approach each conversation as an opportunity for connection, compassion, and shared humanity. Listen to the complete episode by clicking the player above.

The University of Montana has a “herd.” Students across campus are posting on the anonymous social media platform YikYak, where they share questions, thoughts, memes and complaints. It's an app to share what's on your mind, but do people share too much? As more students join and engage anonymously, solidarity is growing, but there are negatives among the positives.

Artificial intelligence has made its way into the classroom—bringing excitement, confusion, and big questions about the future of learning. In this month's episode of the Harvard Data Science Review Podcast, we explore how AI is transforming education with guests Chad Dorsey, president and CEO of the Concord Consortium, and Victor Lee, associate professor at the Stanford Graduate School of Education. Together, they discuss how teachers and students are using AI as a creative learning partner, the myths around AI-driven “cheating,” and how data literacy can empower the next generation. The conversation also dives into critical issues of equity, curiosity, and the evolving role of educators and parents in an AI-powered world—asking what it truly means to build a more human-centered future for learning. Tune in for an honest, hopeful look at the future of education and what it means to build a smarter, more human-centered classroom. Our guests: Chad Dorsey is president and CEO of the Concord Consortium, which has been an innovation leader in researching and developing STEM educational technology for the past 30 years. Victor R. Lee is an associate professor in the Graduate School of Education at Stanford University and is faculty lead for the Stanford Accelerator for Learning's AI + Education program.

In this episode, Kathleen and Chris Vander Woude reflect on the extraordinary life of Tom Vander Woude — a devoted husband, father, and disciple of Christ. As Chris shares personal stories of his father, the conversation honors Tom's quiet heroism, deep Catholic faith, and unwavering love for his family. Tom gave his life to save his son Joseph, who has Down Syndrome. With discussions on fatherhood, faith, and pro-life convictions, this episode also explores the inspiring legacy that has led to early steps toward Tom's potential canonization. Chris Vander Woude is the 5th of 7 sons born to Tom and Mary Ellen Vander Woude. He has worked in Catholic education for 18 years, serving as Dean of Students and Athletic Director. Chris lives in Virginia with his wife of 18 years, Katie, and daughter Zellie.
Imagine you and I were about to make a dinner together. Now, I bring a love of baking to our project, and a decently strong roast chicken game. But I don't want to dominate the conversation too much. "Let's make roast chicken and vegetables," I say, "and cookies." Your face falls a little. "Oh, but you can choose which vegetables we roast, and what kind of cookies - I have M & Ms AND chocolate chips." Perhaps you love making bibimbap, tagine, paella, tacos, or BBQ pork. Maybe you've got three Ottolenghi cookbooks in your bag and you were about to suggest a middle eastern buffet followed up by your incredible raspberry jam donuts. Possibly, you spent a year in culinary school before I knew you, and your artisan pizza was legendary among your college friends. You put all those ideas aside and dutifully don an apron, trying to look OK with the choice between sweet potatoes and carrots, chocolate chips and M & Ms. But what if I had started the conversation by showing you everything I had in my kitchen, including my rainbow shelf of cookbooks, and asked you what you'd like to make? And how I could help? How would that feel? Agency is a key word when it comes to education, but it's easy to underestimate its power and think of a few small choices as agency. Today, in our continuing conversation about #evolvingEDdesign, I want to think bigger and wider. How can we give our students more agency in the classroom, empowering their creativity? Let's dig in. Throughout this podcast, and the ones to come in this series, I'll be showcasing graphics and displays from the #evolvingEDdesign Toolkit, a vast free resource I made for you.
