In this episode we talk about … going offline. Two weeks ago I was at a conference [ Her Empire Builder // Tina Tower ] and Tina (who I am a HUGE fan of) kicked off conference asking us, to be present, and I needed to hear that because I was going to squeeze every break to "work" so I unplugged, immersed myself and had the best time, till I came back online and saw the ugliness of the world :( So I took an extra break off socials and with school holidays just gave up and now I am back into it.

Chat GPT saysGoing offline for business and personal reasons can have several benefits:

Same as Ever: Everyone wants to see the future. Few are good at it. From business to economics, politics to social trends, we're just not very good at predicting what happens next.

According to Morgan Housel, this is because we focus too much on what we think will change and not enough on what we know will stay the same. If you traveled in time to 500 years ago or 500 years from now, you would be astounded at how much technology and medicine has changed. The geopolitical order would make no sense to you. The language and dialect may be completely foreign. But you'd notice people falling for greed and fear just like they do in our current world. https://www.booktopia.com.au/same-as-ever-morgan-housel/book/9781804090633.html

Going back to where it all started. August 2022!

THROWBACK TO THE OG!

Giving our first ep all about the R-Word another spin, on the back of World Autism Day

From August 2022 where I talk about the R-word and I have just shared my ICK about people using the word “Superpower” for Autism (which is FINE) but not in place of the word disability, let’s stop demonizing disability.

Random I talk about Beyonce's new album (which would of been Renaissance) not the cowboy stuff (which I am loving!

Lizzo is also in the media saying she’s “quitting” (she isn’t) because of the BS

Let’s stop making things hard, being inclusive and kind could solve all the worlds problems.

Crypto for Good

In this episode we talk about our trip to Sydney - Westmead Children's Hospital, Transplants and the Children's Medical Research Institute now accepting crypto donations.

***THIS ISN'T”T MEDICAL OR FINANCIAL ADVICE! ***

Crypto- Oxford Dictionary noun: crypto-currency. A digital currency in which transactions are verified and records maintained by a decentralized system using cryptography, rather than by a centralized authority."Decentralized cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin now provide an outlet for personal wealth that is beyond restriction and confiscation"

The Playlist: (Available on Netflix in Australia) source: Wikipedia

The Playlist[1] is a docu-drama miniseries created for Netflix. It was inspired by the book Spotify Untold written by Sven Carlsson and Jonas Leijonhufvud. Directed by Per-Olav Sørensen, the series tells a "fictionalized" story of the birth of the Swedish music streaming company Spotify, along with its early challenges.[2][3][4]

The Playlist premiered on Netflix on 13 October 2022.[5]

An aspiring entrepreneur, Daniel Ek, finds an opportunity among the battle between music industries' heavy-hitters and music piracy. Ek sees a solution, never seen before in a turbulent music industry. He then decides to build a free and legalized music streaming service along with his business partner, Martin Lorentzon. Little did he know, that service would "revolutionize" global music industry and face unforeseen challenges along with its foundations.[3]

In this episode we talk about our Wheelchairs and access.

Fresh from our Mudgee shoot where we had talent using wheelchairs, it just got me thinking … I am not a wheelchair users so I do feel a little ick talking about something I know nothing about but that is the point of disinfluencer, to talk about the things we know nothing about and that is what this episode is about.

Links from this episode;

Amber - Amber Creative - https://www.ambercreative.com.au/Mudgee Location - The Bower https://www.instagram.com/thebower_mudgee/

Wheelchairs:

The invention of the wheelchair is attributed to an unknown inventor, and its origins can be traced back to ancient times. The concept of wheeled chairs to assist individuals with mobility impairments has evolved over centuries.

The first known use of a wheeled mobility device dates back to the 6th century in China, where a Chinese Confucian philosopher, Zhang Heng, reportedly created a wheeled chair for his ailing mother.

In Europe, the first recognizable wheelchair was developed in the early 18th century. It is often attributed to John Dawson, who was an invalid from Bath, England. This early wheelchair had large wooden wheels and a platform seat.

The modern wheelchair, as we know it today, has undergone numerous improvements and innovations over the years, with advancements in materials, design, and functionality. The credit for specific improvements is often shared among various inventors and innovators who have contributed to the evolution of wheelchair technology. The wheelchair's development is a collaborative effort spanning many centuries and cultures.

Keep an eye on insta to see photos from the shoot.

In this episode we talk about AI for business and personal use, and the power for disability.

You will meet our fams pet AI robot Emo and how Josh uses technology (voice commands) on his devices to do and get the things he wants and needs and then we dive into Bob my Business Coach I built using Chat GPT.

ME: Could you be my business coach?

ChatGPT

Certainly! I can provide information, guidance, and support on a wide range of business-related topics. However, please note that while I can offer insights and suggestions, I am not a substitute for professional advice from a qualified business coach or consultant who can work with you more directly. If you have specific questions or topics you'd like assistance with, feel free to let me know, and I'll do my best to help!

ME - I want to focus on building my SaaS platform, podcast and get my social media marketing and have to try and earn $X per month to break even, what coaching and accountability can you provide me?

Chat GPT: Gave me a framework to check ... not included here

ME: Check-In Frequency:

Given the dual nature of your initiatives (SaaS product and podcast transformation), a bi-weekly check-in might be appropriate. This allows for a more detailed review of progress, challenges, and adjustments for both the SaaS product and the podcast. However, feel free to adjust the frequency based on the evolving needs of each initiative.

Remember, flexibility and adaptability are key. Stay attuned to feedback from both your SaaS users and podcast listeners to refine your strategies as you progress. Additionally, leverage cross-promotion between the SaaS product and the podcast to maximize the impact of your overall brand presence.

** I did feed alot of info in and left some out as it is my commercial business IP however just wanted to share with you to see. **

Grants - Art vs Science?

What is a grant?

“A grant is a financial award provided by a government agency, foundation, corporation, or other entity to an individual, organisation, or project to support a specific purpose or activity. Grants are typically non-repayable funds that are intended to advance a particular goal or mission, such as research, education, community development, or charitable activities.

Grant applications usually involve a competitive process where individuals or organizations submit proposals outlining their project or initiative, including the goals, methods, budget, and expected outcomes. Grantmakers review these proposals and award funds to those they believe will best achieve the desired objectives.

Grants can cover a wide range of fields and purposes, including academic research, arts and culture, social services, environmental conservation, and more. They play a crucial role in supporting initiatives that may not be feasible through other means, such as personal savings or traditional loans.” The googles
