With AI rapidly multiplying the amount of content flooding every platform (40m vertical videos PER DAY 😬), we’re facing an era where information is no longer scarce... it’s commoditized. So what actually becomes more valuable in a world drowning in content? In this episode, we share the three human skills we’re doubling down on in the year ahead. These are core skills we believe will stand out more than ever: Storytelling: The shift from tip-based to narrative-driven content, and why holding attention is now a superpowerTransparency & Building in Public: Why your lived experience (even failures!) is your best differentiator in the age of generic contentPersonality & Weirdness: As sameness increases, novelty becomes magnetic and showing up imperfectly is your edgeIf you’ve been wondering how to stay relevant (and energized!) as AI transforms everything, we hope this chat offers a grounded, creative direction to move forward with. 🤠 If you want to join us for the years to come and get an inside look at how we're continuing to build calm creator businesses during the wave of AI, learn more about WAIM Unlimited: https://waim.co

If you’ve ever felt like you’re already behind in the world of AI (or like you need to try every new tool just to keep up) you’re not alone!  In this episode, we introduce the idea of slow-learning AI: a calm, intentional approach to staying curious without getting overwhelmed. We share specific strategies we’re using to create boundaries, focus our energy, and integrate tools that actually serve our business goals (instead of just distracting us with new shiny objects). Don’t bury your head in the sand if you are curious about AI. Take a few of our practical tips from this episode to create constraints and put YOU in the driver’s seat of educating yourself on your own timeline. *** 😏 If you’ve been thinking about using Teachery to build your online courses, take advantage of our Lifetime Deal at https://teachery.com/limited-time  💌 Want practical tips to help you grow your creator business-without burning out?

Are digital product launches dead? Not at all! But in 8 years, we’ve noticed a few changes and we wanted to share what we’ve seen firsthand.  How many sales emails matter?

Here’s what we cover in this ep: Why pre-marketing matters more than ever (and how to start sooner)The power of “carrots” and launch events to drive urgencyWhy inboxes are cluttered and what to do about itHow specificity and social proof are becoming non-negotiableWhy it's easier than ever to execute a launch (doesn’t mean sales are easy) Whether you’re prepping for a big product launch or rethinking how you sell altogether, this episode will help you show up with more intention, strategy, and confidence. *** 😏 If you’ve been thinking about using Teachery to build your online courses, take advantage of our Lifetime Deal at https://teachery.com/limited-time  💌 Want practical tips to help you grow your creator business-without burning out?

If you’re like us and using GPT (or Claude, etc) on a daily basis, then you have an AI that is gaining context about you constantly. With that in mind, we decided to ask AI to come up with questions they thought would be compelling for us to answer! In this episode, we have two AI Speakers joining us to ask us questions about our businesses, content creation, and our lives. The AI voices were created using Descript and the questions were created via ChatGPT. We thought this was SUPER interesting and very fun to see what things stood out to the artificial intelligence we spend time interacting with daily. *** 😏 If you’ve been thinking about using Teachery to build your online courses, take advantage of our Lifetime Deal at https://teachery.com/limited-time  💌 Want practical tips to help you grow your creator business-without burning out?
