OMG! Best interview EVER!!! πŸ™Œ In terms of AI: "Use your humans better." πŸ’― And my focus just shifted to e-commerce & immersion. That made sooo much sense Alicia!! Thank you both!

RIGHT!???

I'm telling you, Alicia is a godsend to all of us.

Love that girl SO much.

Told her after the first interview (cause I got all emotional), she has an identical personality to my sister-in-law (wife's little sister), whom I absolutely adore.

Gosh, Alicia is so delightful to talk to. Her method and style of teaching you is also rare....you feel guided and strengthened as she shares things.

More to come, Ann.

SO much more.

I think that's one of your talents, though, dear.

You have conversations that many won't have. You also admit what you don't know, OR you give perspectives and questions to CONSIDER, without claiming to be some guru.

That's gold, right there.

...that AND true character one can respect.

πŸ«‚ Hugs my friend. And in truth, there's so much out there for all of us to learn.

I agree 100%.

....that's one of the reasons I'm hunting for the truth and striving to bring as much as I can find to writers here.

So much bad intent out there to wade through...and some of us have more experience in dealing with the BS.

OK.Great interview. All AI isn't how to write faster. Now - once you have all this data into five posts, where do you post these? On your Substack home page as pinned?

Oh - found it way down on that PDF. Oops. "Your AI Overview doesn’t live everywhere. It lives where your authority begins; on your own website."

Thank you for listening ❀️. Where’s your home? I can’t remember do you have a Shopify store? If so, that’s where these would go on your Shopify blog first.

Is your substack for writers or readers? If for readers then you could put in a few of the discovery posts but really, just my opinion, you’d want to put these in your seat of power and domain. Substack is still social media, after all. Great for backlinks and some discovery. Google will index your storefront first, though. ❀️

I have a Gumroad storefront at store.livingsensical.com. There are posts there as well. Technically, my Substack is for both non-fiction and fiction readers. I have my fiction short stories roll out once a week as well.

Always a work in progress, both here and Gumroad.
