The question is, can we as humans compete with technology? Especially AI. One of my clients uses Chat GPT for everything. A friend of mine talks to Siri all day long. She uses it like you, and I may have used 411 to gather phone numbers and make dinner reservations. I don't use AI to write my content. But I do use a tool that transcribes my podcast…

Since the beginning of time, women have not been given the credit they deserve when doing the most incredible job balancing family, child raising, career, being the number one caregiver, and cheerleader.
