1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.600
All right, so welcome, welcome, welcome.

2
00:00:04.600 --> 00:00:10.080
It is Thursday morning, so of course that means it's office hours.

3
00:00:10.080 --> 00:00:15.520
And this is the time that we gather to talk about your business.

4
00:00:15.520 --> 00:00:17.920
It's the heaven and earth combo.

5
00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:24.000
Yesterday, Wednesday, is the heaven, that's when we get together, we pray, and we come

6
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:28.120
up with a promise and a practice, and it's just a beautiful time.

7
00:00:28.360 --> 00:00:33.120
So today is the earth part, where we look at systems, strategies, structures, what are

8
00:00:33.120 --> 00:00:34.120
you working on?

9
00:00:34.120 --> 00:00:36.240
What do you need support with?

10
00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:40.080
How can we take your business to the next level?

11
00:00:40.080 --> 00:00:47.760
So you can bring your questions, those of you that aren't here live, you can reach out

12
00:00:47.760 --> 00:00:52.720
to me, we're missing you, I know so many of you are traveling, safe travels to all of

13
00:00:52.720 --> 00:00:53.720
you.

14
00:00:53.720 --> 00:00:59.720
So I'm going to open with prayer, and then we were having a conversation before the conversation

15
00:00:59.720 --> 00:01:05.480
talking about lives, and so I think I'll pick up with that conversation, and then we'll

16
00:01:05.480 --> 00:01:06.980
go from there.

17
00:01:06.980 --> 00:01:14.860
So Father, I thank you for this day, this is the day that you have made, we rejoice

18
00:01:14.860 --> 00:01:17.120
and are glad in it.

19
00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:22.440
We invite your presence here, Lord, whether people are here live or listening to the recording

20
00:01:22.440 --> 00:01:30.720
at any time on the Prosper Leader member vault, Lord, I ask that first and foremost,

21
00:01:30.720 --> 00:01:35.000
they'll see you, they'll feel you, they'll hear you.

22
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:45.640
I ask that you open our spiritual senses to see, to hear, to perceive, to taste, to smell

23
00:01:45.640 --> 00:01:50.640
that you are good and what you are doing in our lives in this season.

24
00:01:50.640 --> 00:01:57.120
Make us open, make us receptive, increase our capacity, Lord, to serve.

25
00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:04.960
May we keep our eyes on you, may we keep our eyes on the vision you've placed in our heart.

26
00:02:04.960 --> 00:02:09.759
And you've said that the greatest leader is the greatest servant, the greatest servant

27
00:02:09.759 --> 00:02:11.039
is the greatest leader.

28
00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:17.200
So may we serve well in the place that you have placed us.

29
00:02:17.200 --> 00:02:20.880
So we just invite you here, Lord, let the words of our mouth, the meditation of our

30
00:02:20.880 --> 00:02:27.160
heart be pleasing in your sight, in Jesus name, amen, amen.

31
00:02:27.160 --> 00:02:40.880
So we were talking about doing lives and especially on Metta, on Facebook and on Instagram, lives

32
00:02:40.880 --> 00:02:43.680
are getting the highest response.

33
00:02:43.680 --> 00:02:48.000
And there's a lot of reasons that doing lives is really important.

34
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:55.280
So Amanda, thanks for opening that conversation and congratulations on doing a live.

35
00:02:55.280 --> 00:03:03.720
If you think about where things are right now and the changes that we've gone through,

36
00:03:03.720 --> 00:03:10.760
we have gone from what started out as a personal connecting platform, I mean, you go to the

37
00:03:10.760 --> 00:03:17.760
history of Facebook and college dorm and connecting, building relationships.

38
00:03:17.760 --> 00:03:26.280
And we have strayed far from that in our marketing, that it's become very impersonal with bots

39
00:03:26.280 --> 00:03:30.880
and algorithms and funnels and ads.

40
00:03:30.880 --> 00:03:40.380
And so one of the things in all the change, if you add to that AI, and it's almost impossible

41
00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:48.580
to know, if you're keen, you can kind of pick up little things, but is this real?

42
00:03:48.580 --> 00:03:49.760
Is this a real person?

43
00:03:49.760 --> 00:03:51.060
Is this a real post?

44
00:03:51.060 --> 00:03:54.540
Is somebody really talking or is this AI?

45
00:03:54.540 --> 00:04:01.140
So we've been for probably 10 years, not 10 years, last couple of years, we've been in

46
00:04:01.140 --> 00:04:05.220
a trust recession, right?

47
00:04:05.220 --> 00:04:10.300
People are losing trust in the online space and the market has matured.

48
00:04:10.300 --> 00:04:18.019
So that people are very discerning and they're less likely to just trust you.

49
00:04:18.019 --> 00:04:22.380
So lives do a lot of things at once.

50
00:04:22.380 --> 00:04:25.340
For one thing, they know you're real, right?

51
00:04:25.340 --> 00:04:29.420
For another thing, it's personal and they can start connecting, especially if you can

52
00:04:29.420 --> 00:04:35.060
be engaging them as you're doing the live and get them, you know, making comments and

53
00:04:35.060 --> 00:04:36.780
things like that.

54
00:04:36.780 --> 00:04:43.980
So it's working with the algorithms, but it's also working with where we're at.

55
00:04:43.980 --> 00:04:52.660
And the more often you do lives and in between that, the more often you do posts and using

56
00:04:52.660 --> 00:04:55.100
a picture of yourself.

57
00:04:55.100 --> 00:04:58.100
So I don't like taking selfies.

58
00:04:58.100 --> 00:04:59.980
I'm not that into myself.

59
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.180
But I have to put a picture of myself on every post.

60
00:05:03.180 --> 00:05:06.060
But actually, there's a science behind it.

61
00:05:06.060 --> 00:05:10.740
And the science goes all the way back to when television started.

62
00:05:10.740 --> 00:05:13.200
And they began to see a phenomenon

63
00:05:13.200 --> 00:05:17.860
that when we see the face repeated on channels,

64
00:05:17.860 --> 00:05:21.900
we actually, even though it's not true,

65
00:05:21.900 --> 00:05:24.940
we feel we know the person.

66
00:05:24.940 --> 00:05:27.940
And I want you to think about the actors you follow.

67
00:05:27.940 --> 00:05:28.700
Do you follow?

68
00:05:29.220 --> 00:05:33.180
Any shows that you watch, and something happens to them,

69
00:05:33.180 --> 00:05:36.580
and you're upset, and you love them or you hate them.

70
00:05:36.580 --> 00:05:38.960
But actually, they're just actors.

71
00:05:38.960 --> 00:05:41.420
They're not even that person.

72
00:05:41.420 --> 00:05:45.260
But our mind, seeing them on a consistent basis,

73
00:05:45.260 --> 00:05:47.540
feels safety, familiarity.

74
00:05:47.540 --> 00:05:49.020
I know them.

75
00:05:49.020 --> 00:05:51.660
And so a form of relationship, you're

76
00:05:51.660 --> 00:05:54.220
going to develop that into a real relationship.

77
00:05:54.220 --> 00:05:58.040
But a form of relationship happens

78
00:05:58.040 --> 00:05:59.960
when they see our face.

79
00:05:59.960 --> 00:06:05.640
And so lives do that as well.

80
00:06:05.640 --> 00:06:07.560
And then it's the algorithm.

81
00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:09.480
So they know you're real.

82
00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:11.920
They're bonding with you.

83
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:15.280
And I also want you to understand,

84
00:06:15.280 --> 00:06:17.800
those of you that are kind of branching out,

85
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:21.500
and like Amanda was saying, I don't do lives as much.

86
00:06:21.500 --> 00:06:24.400
I'm going to be doing more.

87
00:06:24.400 --> 00:06:28.920
Don't judge the reaction right off the bat.

88
00:06:28.920 --> 00:06:31.580
If it doesn't look like a lot of people are looking at it

89
00:06:31.580 --> 00:06:33.640
or a lot of people are commenting,

90
00:06:33.640 --> 00:06:37.480
you need to know that part of the trust recession

91
00:06:37.480 --> 00:06:39.840
is there's a lot of lurkers.

92
00:06:39.840 --> 00:06:41.080
They're watching you.

93
00:06:41.080 --> 00:06:42.640
But they're not engaging.

94
00:06:42.640 --> 00:06:44.800
But they're watching you.

95
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:47.000
And it's not until they see you enough times

96
00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:49.720
that they'll finally step up and say something.

97
00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:54.360
So it's nice on the ego if there's a million people

98
00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:56.280
watching and commenting and all of that.

99
00:06:56.280 --> 00:06:58.640
But that's not always the case when you're first starting.

100
00:06:58.640 --> 00:07:02.120
But don't let that stop you or slow you down.

101
00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:04.320
So what I want to share with you, and then I'm going to open,

102
00:07:04.320 --> 00:07:06.240
if you have any further questions

103
00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:10.800
or we want to kind of look and refine the message,

104
00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:14.760
depending on the platform, the length of a live

105
00:07:14.760 --> 00:07:18.000
is very different.

106
00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:22.440
And so what's performing really well

107
00:07:22.440 --> 00:07:25.520
is under two minutes, because it can become a real.

108
00:07:25.520 --> 00:07:28.120
It can be on Instagram, shared.

109
00:07:28.120 --> 00:07:30.080
If it's over two minutes, it won't be.

110
00:07:30.080 --> 00:07:33.200
It gets broken up all funky and all of that.

111
00:07:33.200 --> 00:07:38.640
So for longer teachings, you want to use Facebook

112
00:07:38.640 --> 00:07:41.880
or you want to create it more like, or not Facebook,

113
00:07:41.880 --> 00:07:44.840
YouTube, or you want to create it more like an event.

114
00:07:44.840 --> 00:07:49.320
Like YouTube is phenomenal for long form talking, right?

115
00:07:49.320 --> 00:07:52.880
So learning to be succinct.

116
00:07:52.880 --> 00:07:56.960
And of course, the most important thing in your post

117
00:07:56.960 --> 00:08:01.840
or in your live is the hook.

118
00:08:01.840 --> 00:08:03.680
Spend time on the hook.

119
00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:08.200
And by the hook, that in the first few seconds,

120
00:08:08.200 --> 00:08:10.920
I don't like, hey, it's so great to see you.

121
00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:12.560
I'm actually doing a live.

122
00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:13.280
This is my first.

123
00:08:13.280 --> 00:08:18.160
No, don't fill with any of that fluff at all, OK?

124
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:20.440
Go right into it.

125
00:08:20.440 --> 00:08:21.520
I'm super excited.

126
00:08:21.520 --> 00:08:25.920
In today's live, I'm going to break down something that will

127
00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:29.480
and then talk about the result, the transformation,

128
00:08:29.480 --> 00:08:33.320
how it will impact them, why it matters.

129
00:08:33.320 --> 00:08:36.400
And if you're offering something, stay to the end.

130
00:08:36.400 --> 00:08:39.960
But you want to hook right away that, why should

131
00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:41.440
I watch this whole thing?

132
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:45.200
Because they're going to make a decision in the first seconds.

133
00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:47.600
The average is they'll watch it three to five seconds.

134
00:08:47.600 --> 00:08:49.000
If the hook's not there, they're

135
00:08:49.000 --> 00:08:51.240
next because they're scrolling.

136
00:08:51.240 --> 00:08:56.160
So probably most important when you do it is the hook, OK?

137
00:08:56.160 --> 00:09:02.720
Then I have a structure that I have used for years.

138
00:09:02.720 --> 00:09:03.560
It's old.

139
00:09:03.560 --> 00:09:05.960
It comes way out of Toastmasters.

140
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:09.800
So I'm going back decades when I was president

141
00:09:09.800 --> 00:09:13.240
of a local Toastmasters club.

142
00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:16.400
But there's some questions to ask yourself.

143
00:09:16.400 --> 00:09:18.600
And this is true for a live.

144
00:09:18.600 --> 00:09:25.800
It's true for if you're speaking, any speaking at all,

145
00:09:25.800 --> 00:09:27.840
pre-speaking, paid speaking.

146
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:32.600
So a few questions to ask besides the hook.

147
00:09:32.600 --> 00:09:34.520
That's really important.

148
00:09:34.520 --> 00:09:36.560
Questions to ask.

149
00:09:36.560 --> 00:09:39.440
This will help you focus.

150
00:09:39.440 --> 00:09:43.120
What do I want them to remember?

151
00:09:43.160 --> 00:09:46.520
What do I want them to remember?

152
00:09:46.520 --> 00:09:50.680
That's going to help you hone in to the main point.

153
00:09:50.680 --> 00:09:53.480
And what you want them to remember

154
00:09:53.480 --> 00:09:56.120
is what you're going to build the live around.

155
00:09:56.120 --> 00:10:01.080
So the old way of teaching is to give a ton of facts.

156
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:02.080
just fill our heads full of fluff.

157
00:10:02.080 --> 00:10:04.960
It's the old form of education.

158
00:10:04.960 --> 00:10:10.160
Nowadays, to back it up and teach one thing simple,

159
00:10:10.160 --> 00:10:13.000
because people's mind is crowded, and they're busy,

160
00:10:13.000 --> 00:10:16.440
and it's hard to focus, is better

161
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:21.760
to make one point really well, or maximum three points

162
00:10:21.760 --> 00:10:22.960
if you've got the time.

163
00:10:22.960 --> 00:10:27.080
But one point really well, and then it

164
00:10:27.080 --> 00:10:33.760
gets dug in with a real life example, a story, a question.

165
00:10:33.760 --> 00:10:39.400
So an exercise they can practice to make it practical, right?

166
00:10:39.400 --> 00:10:41.960
So what do I want them to remember?

167
00:10:41.960 --> 00:10:44.000
So that, of course, the thing they're

168
00:10:44.000 --> 00:10:45.760
going to remember the most is stories.

169
00:10:45.760 --> 00:10:46.840
They never forget those.

170
00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:48.760
That's why Jesus used stories so much.

171
00:10:48.760 --> 00:10:50.160
They touch the mind and the heart.

172
00:10:50.160 --> 00:10:53.360
So whatever point you're making, if you can add a story,

173
00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:56.000
you just up leveled what you're doing,

174
00:10:56.000 --> 00:10:59.200
as opposed to just talking head.

175
00:10:59.200 --> 00:11:02.360
Telling a story is powerful.

176
00:11:02.360 --> 00:11:05.440
And they'll remember your story, and then, therefore,

177
00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:08.200
they'll remember the point that you tied with the story.

178
00:11:08.200 --> 00:11:10.840
So what do you want them to remember?

179
00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:13.320
Second one's kind of cool, I think.

180
00:11:13.320 --> 00:11:15.200
And I do this in live events.

181
00:11:15.200 --> 00:11:17.840
I do it in lives online.

182
00:11:17.840 --> 00:11:21.400
What do I want them to feel?

183
00:11:21.400 --> 00:11:23.360
So you're going into it with that.

184
00:11:23.400 --> 00:11:27.280
What do I want them to feel?

185
00:11:27.280 --> 00:11:29.040
Do I want them to feel loved?

186
00:11:29.040 --> 00:11:30.960
Do I want them to feel welcomed?

187
00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:32.840
Do I want them to feel included?

188
00:11:32.840 --> 00:11:35.080
Do I want them to feel inspired?

189
00:11:35.080 --> 00:11:37.480
Do I want them to feel challenged?

190
00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:40.320
Do I want them to feel, you know?

191
00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:41.040
You see?

192
00:11:41.040 --> 00:11:44.800
And so if you know what you want them to remember,

193
00:11:44.800 --> 00:11:46.560
and you really build that, and you

194
00:11:46.560 --> 00:11:51.600
know what you want them to feel, right?

195
00:11:51.600 --> 00:11:53.080
I can't remember who said it.

196
00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:54.360
I think I heard it on Oprah.

197
00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:56.560
But people don't remember what you say,

198
00:11:56.560 --> 00:11:59.560
but they remember how you make them feel, right?

199
00:11:59.560 --> 00:12:02.080
So that's super huge.

200
00:12:02.080 --> 00:12:04.000
And then the last of the three.

201
00:12:04.000 --> 00:12:06.920
So what do I want them to remember?

202
00:12:06.920 --> 00:12:09.240
What do I want them to feel?

203
00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:12.280
What do I want them to do?

204
00:12:12.280 --> 00:12:15.360
Put some purpose to your live.

205
00:12:15.360 --> 00:12:17.360
People are busy.

206
00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:19.560
So what's the call to action?

207
00:12:19.560 --> 00:12:21.200
What's the next step?

208
00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:23.280
Where can they go after listening to you?

209
00:12:23.280 --> 00:12:25.720
Do you have a free resource they can request

210
00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:28.600
so they can do a deeper dive?

211
00:12:28.600 --> 00:12:31.760
Are you doing calls to help them on whatever

212
00:12:31.760 --> 00:12:34.640
the subject you're talking about?

213
00:12:34.640 --> 00:12:37.160
Are you pointing them to your book?

214
00:12:37.160 --> 00:12:39.840
Are you, like, what do you want them to do?

215
00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:44.480
Give them a clear action to take to get

216
00:12:44.480 --> 00:12:46.800
whatever the goal of the result was,

217
00:12:46.800 --> 00:12:48.680
the transformation as to why.

218
00:12:48.680 --> 00:12:50.760
Because you're not doing a live just to show up.

219
00:12:50.760 --> 00:12:51.840
Hey, here I am.

220
00:12:51.840 --> 00:12:54.560
I just spent three of your minutes or five of your minutes.

221
00:12:54.560 --> 00:12:55.400
Here I am.

222
00:12:55.400 --> 00:12:56.920
Like, I'm doing a live because they

223
00:12:56.920 --> 00:12:59.200
say I'm supposed to do a live.

224
00:12:59.200 --> 00:13:01.760
You're stealing their time and your own time.

225
00:13:01.760 --> 00:13:05.720
Like, have a purpose in everything that you do, right?

226
00:13:05.720 --> 00:13:12.160
And also, when you think about that, think of purpose

227
00:13:12.160 --> 00:13:15.200
and think of repurpose.

228
00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:21.120
Everything you create should be multi-purposed.

229
00:13:21.120 --> 00:13:25.040
That live can be transcribed and be a post.

230
00:13:25.040 --> 00:13:27.200
It can go into an email.

231
00:13:27.200 --> 00:13:29.720
It can be a text.

232
00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:34.200
It can be, like, you can do so much with it.

233
00:13:34.200 --> 00:13:38.720
And it can go deeper with a study or a follow-up.

234
00:13:38.720 --> 00:13:43.200
So repurpose everything that you do so that your time,

235
00:13:43.200 --> 00:13:45.520
when you're talking about stewarding time,

236
00:13:45.520 --> 00:13:48.680
best way to steward your time is when you do something.

237
00:13:48.680 --> 00:13:53.600
Let it have many uses, and let it be powerful and on purpose.

238
00:13:53.600 --> 00:13:57.240
So a few thoughts for your live.

239
00:13:57.240 --> 00:14:00.120
Hope that helps you.

240
00:14:00.120 --> 00:14:02.960
I've never had only one person so far,

241
00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:06.280
so she's getting like an individual here.

242
00:14:06.280 --> 00:14:07.400
So that's kind of fun.

243
00:14:07.400 --> 00:14:09.880
I know I've got so many people traveling all over,

244
00:14:09.880 --> 00:14:13.840
from Africa to Louisiana to Cuba to, like, Bahamas.

245
00:14:13.840 --> 00:14:15.840
We've got people all over the place right now.

246
00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:21.200
But do you have, does that help you?

247
00:14:21.200 --> 00:14:23.320
And do you have any further questions,

248
00:14:23.320 --> 00:14:25.720
like talking about stewarding time?

249
00:14:25.720 --> 00:14:26.440
Here I am.

250
00:14:26.440 --> 00:14:27.400
I'm yours.

251
00:14:27.400 --> 00:14:28.400
Bonus coaching.

252
00:14:28.400 --> 00:14:33.240
So any other questions about being successful with the live

253
00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:37.880
and anything I can do to help you

254
00:14:37.880 --> 00:14:39.640
go to the next level with it?

255
00:14:39.680 --> 00:14:41.520
Yeah, no, I think that was very helpful.

256
00:14:41.520 --> 00:14:45.720
I love the points, especially to keep in mind what the purpose

257
00:14:45.720 --> 00:14:50.880
is, why are you doing this live, how do you want them to feel.

258
00:14:50.880 --> 00:14:53.520
Like you said, you're not doing it just to do it.

259
00:14:53.520 --> 00:14:55.200
You're not doing it to waste their time,

260
00:14:55.200 --> 00:14:57.080
because time is valuable.

261
00:14:57.080 --> 00:14:58.320
It's so valuable.

262
00:14:58.320 --> 00:15:00.200
And like you said, with the live,

263
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:05.200
hook now this is a question that I have because I always start out with my content and it's just me

264
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:02.600
I think it's so important that you're not just doing it

265
00:15:02.600 --> 00:15:04.080
for the sake of it, but that you're

266
00:15:04.080 --> 00:15:05.400
doing it for the purpose of it.

267
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:11.920
and I feel like it but I always say the mama you know so I was just gonna say hey mama as you're

268
00:15:05.400 --> 00:15:06.960
And I think that's really important.

269
00:15:11.920 --> 00:15:18.320
jumping on live say hello in the comments and tell me where you were tuning in from so it's kind of

270
00:15:18.320 --> 00:15:23.680
like a little welcome you know and give them a kind of action like you know tell me where you're

271
00:15:23.680 --> 00:15:28.480
tuning in from and so maybe I can go back and kind of look at the comments and then from there

272
00:15:29.280 --> 00:15:36.880
I say um today I am sharing yeah and then like like what it is yeah and kind of like

273
00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:46.400
about you know today I'm gonna be sharing and then always put some levels as to and the reason

274
00:15:46.400 --> 00:15:53.520
why this matters for you as a mama as a as a Christian businesswoman or however you're you're

275
00:15:53.520 --> 00:16:02.720
phrasing it um and so what that does is if you can put the benefits of what you're sharing that

276
00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:11.280
by listening how is their life going to be improved and if we ignore this subject what's the cost of

277
00:16:11.280 --> 00:16:19.120
inaction so we're always playing on two sides right um and sometimes the hook can also be

278
00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:27.760
curiosity and like in your case have you ever heard the word stewardship and um maybe you've

279
00:16:27.760 --> 00:16:34.800
only heard it in a limited context around money I want to share a broader context and the reason

280
00:16:34.800 --> 00:16:40.880
I want to share it is I believe it's going to help your life as a mother in this in this in this way

281
00:16:41.360 --> 00:16:49.600
as a businesswoman and this in this in this way so I felt really led to share and um so I'll

282
00:16:49.600 --> 00:16:56.160
probably be carrying this into a few lives so today I'm going to talk to it from this perspective

283
00:16:57.040 --> 00:17:07.280
and then if you have a story that will take it to yeah a much much higher level right um

284
00:17:07.280 --> 00:17:13.200
there's an old saying that facts tell and stories sell and there's a reason why Jesus

285
00:17:13.200 --> 00:17:21.520
used so many stories right yeah so um this is also a side note for you and for everyone for

286
00:17:21.520 --> 00:17:27.040
all content this is kind of a one of the people she's not on here today she had cataract surgery

287
00:17:27.040 --> 00:17:33.440
but Bev um she's the she's the shortcut queen right that's her one of her tagline is shortcut

288
00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:42.800
queen and um so a shortcut to what you're doing to make your life easy as you do all forms of

289
00:17:42.800 --> 00:17:50.160
sharing is to have a couple things one is have a story bank and that can just be a folder on a

290
00:17:50.160 --> 00:18:01.440
google drive or a word document but start listing stories okay and everything can be a story and

291
00:18:01.440 --> 00:18:05.920
just once you start thinking like this you're going to start noticing and if something funny

292
00:18:05.920 --> 00:18:10.480
your kids did it's something that the principal said it's something in church it's something that

293
00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:17.360
happened to you today it's something that happened with a client and you just have like memory joggers

294
00:18:18.080 --> 00:18:23.840
as to that story so then when you have that you're getting ready to do the live you glance at your

295
00:18:23.840 --> 00:18:29.520
story bank and how what story would be really good for this and by the way any story can be used in

296
00:18:29.520 --> 00:18:35.840
multiple multiple multiple contexts you know i'm a salsa dancer i use salsa dancing stories

297
00:18:35.840 --> 00:18:46.400
in every kind of context okay so having that is really really helpful similar and also extremely

298
00:18:46.400 --> 00:18:56.240
helpful is to have a topic list a running topic list and so just as you're going along wow i think

299
00:18:56.240 --> 00:19:00.720
moms need to know about that that would be an important topic someday i want to talk about that

300
00:19:00.720 --> 00:19:04.800
oh you know i'm talking about that with a client that would be a good topic for down the road so

301
00:19:04.800 --> 00:19:09.440
you just got this list of topics so when it comes time then i need to go live today you're not like

302
00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:14.480
looking at a white piece of paper you look through and you go oh you know what yeah i want to i want

303
00:19:14.480 --> 00:19:19.360
to hit this topic so both of those things are going to shorten your time and make your life

304
00:19:19.360 --> 00:19:25.200
easier by by just starting that and keeping that and just you can do it in your phone anywhere but

305
00:19:25.280 --> 00:19:31.520
just every time you see a story or a topic and when your brain is is primed for that your amygdala

306
00:19:31.520 --> 00:19:36.160
is going to be looking for it and scanning that right so you're going to get more and more stories

307
00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:41.360
and more and more topics and things are going to remind you and as soon as they do just just pop it

308
00:19:41.360 --> 00:19:48.080
on your phone pop it on a google drive or a word doc or something okay uh because that is going to

309
00:19:48.080 --> 00:19:57.440
make communication really fun and easy for you also rotating in formats so another really powerful

310
00:19:57.440 --> 00:19:59.920
thing and it can fit right there in the top

311
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:03.640
topics is frequently asked questions.

312
00:20:03.640 --> 00:20:08.280
So know that if someone asks you a question,

313
00:20:08.280 --> 00:20:12.080
there's another 10, another 100, another 1,000 people

314
00:20:12.080 --> 00:20:14.720
that have the same question.

315
00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:18.880
So questions are super valuable, and they become

316
00:20:18.880 --> 00:20:20.760
a really powerful tool.

317
00:20:20.760 --> 00:20:23.960
And so sometimes your topics can be that you're just

318
00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:26.920
pulling something, and other times can be,

319
00:20:26.920 --> 00:20:30.120
you know, this came up, this question came up.

320
00:20:31.080 --> 00:20:33.840
And it could be a question that comes from a friend,

321
00:20:33.840 --> 00:20:35.840
it could be a question that comes from church,

322
00:20:35.840 --> 00:20:37.480
it could be in your clients.

323
00:20:37.480 --> 00:20:41.760
So those are really good because if somebody has a question,

324
00:20:41.760 --> 00:20:43.560
that makes an easy hook.

325
00:20:43.560 --> 00:20:45.960
Yesterday I was approached with this question,

326
00:20:45.960 --> 00:20:47.760
and then you make it kind of fun.

327
00:20:47.760 --> 00:20:50.500
This question really got me thinking.

328
00:20:50.500 --> 00:20:52.360
This question challenged me.

329
00:20:52.360 --> 00:20:55.860
This question, like you can make it even fun.

330
00:20:55.860 --> 00:21:00.140
And that's probably the final thing that I would say

331
00:21:00.140 --> 00:21:04.060
about doing all of this is that,

332
00:21:07.300 --> 00:21:09.420
oh, lost my train of thought, how fun is that?

333
00:21:09.420 --> 00:21:12.280
Let's see, I danced too late last night.

334
00:21:14.940 --> 00:21:19.660
Oh, with storytelling and with speaking,

335
00:21:19.660 --> 00:21:22.920
the more senses that you can engage,

336
00:21:23.760 --> 00:21:26.640
the more you'll hold attention.

337
00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:28.680
We love detailed storytelling.

338
00:21:29.660 --> 00:21:32.300
So I was sitting with my girlfriend

339
00:21:32.300 --> 00:21:34.160
at my favorite coffee shop.

340
00:21:34.160 --> 00:21:36.300
And what I love about this coffee shop is that

341
00:21:36.300 --> 00:21:38.120
they always have flowers around,

342
00:21:38.120 --> 00:21:41.600
and you can actually smell the flowers in the air.

343
00:21:41.600 --> 00:21:43.120
And I love sitting outside,

344
00:21:43.120 --> 00:21:45.240
and you can feel the sun warming you.

345
00:21:45.240 --> 00:21:48.400
And it's just my favorite place to meet people.

346
00:21:48.400 --> 00:21:50.920
And the building is kind of an old stucco.

347
00:21:50.920 --> 00:21:54.240
It just feels almost like I'm in Italy for a second.

348
00:21:54.240 --> 00:21:56.440
See, I just gave you a smell.

349
00:21:56.440 --> 00:21:58.280
I gave you feeling the sun.

350
00:21:58.280 --> 00:22:01.360
I gave you the description of the building, what I see.

351
00:22:02.240 --> 00:22:04.740
They will remember your story and they won't leave

352
00:22:04.740 --> 00:22:08.560
because the brain doesn't like unfinished loops.

353
00:22:08.560 --> 00:22:11.360
If you start a story, if you start describing things,

354
00:22:11.360 --> 00:22:13.760
they have to stay and hear the whole thing.

355
00:22:13.760 --> 00:22:14.960
They don't.

356
00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:18.160
And that's another kind of fun play on it too,

357
00:22:18.160 --> 00:22:20.400
is you could start a story and then you can say,

358
00:22:21.240 --> 00:22:23.320
and I'm gonna share the rest in a second,

359
00:22:23.320 --> 00:22:26.280
and you can go into some points where you break it up

360
00:22:26.280 --> 00:22:28.680
and you leave the cliffhanger and you come back and you go,

361
00:22:28.680 --> 00:22:30.880
so you're probably wonder what happened

362
00:22:30.880 --> 00:22:32.400
to the puppy in the story.

363
00:22:32.400 --> 00:22:35.640
You wonder what happened to my girlfriend, you know?

364
00:22:35.640 --> 00:22:37.120
And you can finish with that.

365
00:22:37.120 --> 00:22:39.160
But that's another thing is,

366
00:22:39.160 --> 00:22:42.760
remember the brain hates unfinished loops.

367
00:22:42.760 --> 00:22:46.800
And so in any speaking, if you can start something,

368
00:22:46.800 --> 00:22:49.360
engage them, and then you can make some points,

369
00:22:49.360 --> 00:22:51.480
and then you can come back to it.

370
00:22:51.480 --> 00:22:53.400
Okay, I love that.

371
00:22:53.400 --> 00:22:57.080
I love that because I do put in my phone like notes

372
00:22:57.080 --> 00:22:59.920
because I feel like when sometimes

373
00:22:59.920 --> 00:23:04.000
I just get ideas randomly and I'll just put them in my notes

374
00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:05.800
and I'm like, oh, I can use this for content

375
00:23:05.800 --> 00:23:08.160
or I could use this for like my reel

376
00:23:08.160 --> 00:23:11.360
or I don't know, something, and then I go back to it.

377
00:23:11.360 --> 00:23:14.480
But I've never done like the questions,

378
00:23:14.480 --> 00:23:15.960
so I do like that one.

379
00:23:15.960 --> 00:23:18.360
Good, so I'm gonna show you something

380
00:23:18.360 --> 00:23:19.560
in the membership site

381
00:23:19.560 --> 00:23:22.480
because you're new to the membership site.

382
00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:27.480
And let me take us over to it for a second

383
00:23:28.120 --> 00:23:29.840
and anybody else that may be watching

384
00:23:29.840 --> 00:23:31.680
that hasn't spent much time

385
00:23:31.680 --> 00:23:34.800
in the Prosper Leader member vault.

386
00:23:36.040 --> 00:23:39.520
So there's a lot of things here.

387
00:23:39.520 --> 00:23:42.280
There's free resources,

388
00:23:42.280 --> 00:23:45.960
and there's the power hour that I do on Wednesdays.

389
00:23:46.000 --> 00:23:49.280
If you're premium access, you get all of these things.

390
00:23:49.280 --> 00:23:52.800
And then there's masterclasses that are super powerful.

391
00:23:52.800 --> 00:23:56.200
And then what we're doing today is an office hour

392
00:23:56.200 --> 00:23:59.040
and previous office hours are here.

393
00:23:59.040 --> 00:24:02.400
And what made me think about this is two weeks ago,

394
00:24:02.400 --> 00:24:05.520
last week, I talked about newsletters that convert.

395
00:24:05.520 --> 00:24:10.520
Two weeks ago, I introduced Google Notebooks LM.

396
00:24:11.760 --> 00:24:14.760
Are you familiar with Google Notebooks LM?

397
00:24:14.920 --> 00:24:18.920
It's gonna be your new best friend, organizing things.

398
00:24:18.920 --> 00:24:19.760
So-

399
00:24:19.760 --> 00:24:22.000
It's gonna be our organization.

400
00:24:22.000 --> 00:24:23.520
The reason I brought this up

401
00:24:23.520 --> 00:24:26.360
is women have stuff on their phone and on their computer

402
00:24:26.360 --> 00:24:28.560
and in their Google Drive and on their desk

403
00:24:28.560 --> 00:24:29.960
and in a million journals.

404
00:24:29.960 --> 00:24:31.440
And then you go to find something,

405
00:24:31.440 --> 00:24:33.000
you don't remember if it was in a journal

406
00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:34.720
or if it was in Google or it's Word,

407
00:24:34.720 --> 00:24:36.160
is it sitting on your desktop?

408
00:24:36.160 --> 00:24:37.440
Is it in your phone?

409
00:24:37.440 --> 00:24:40.400
And since you're talking about stewarding time,

410
00:24:40.400 --> 00:24:44.640
that's one of the ways the enemy really steals our time

411
00:24:45.480 --> 00:24:47.140
because we're looking for stuff all the time.

412
00:24:47.140 --> 00:24:50.560
So this is, I think, the coolest thing

413
00:24:50.560 --> 00:24:54.920
that I have ever found when it comes to organization.

414
00:24:54.920 --> 00:24:59.920
And so it's just, if you go into Google Notebook LM,

415
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:01.560
And I'm going to show you really quick.

416
00:25:01.560 --> 00:25:04.840
And I do a complete talk there, so I'm not going to do that.

417
00:25:04.840 --> 00:25:09.560
But it's notebooklm.google.com.

418
00:25:09.560 --> 00:25:13.920
And so when you go in, it looks very simple.

419
00:25:13.920 --> 00:25:18.560
And you simply can create a notebook.

420
00:25:18.560 --> 00:25:21.520
And then when you create the notebook,

421
00:25:21.520 --> 00:25:25.280
I like to create separate ones on different topics.

422
00:25:25.280 --> 00:25:27.280
So I was just playing, for example, here

423
00:25:27.280 --> 00:25:30.280
with a couple workshops.

424
00:25:30.280 --> 00:25:35.920
And the really cool thing is that when you do it,

425
00:25:35.920 --> 00:25:39.560
you can upload from just about every source

426
00:25:39.560 --> 00:25:42.480
under the sun under that topic.

427
00:25:42.480 --> 00:25:46.400
And now what happens, it's like AI.

428
00:25:46.400 --> 00:25:48.840
It's like ChatGPT.

429
00:25:48.840 --> 00:25:52.920
But the problem with ChatGPT is it's pulling from the world.

430
00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:56.120
And ChatGPT hallucinates.

431
00:25:56.120 --> 00:26:01.760
30% to 50% is inaccurate of what it tells you.

432
00:26:01.760 --> 00:26:04.360
This is only on your stuff.

433
00:26:04.360 --> 00:26:08.400
So it's going to pull and create from your stuff.

434
00:26:08.400 --> 00:26:11.440
So everything that you've got, let's say toward,

435
00:26:11.440 --> 00:26:13.960
like right now, let's say you're doing stewardship.

436
00:26:13.960 --> 00:26:16.680
Everything you ever have anywhere on stewardship,

437
00:26:16.680 --> 00:26:21.440
any notes, any lives, you can put in audio recordings,

438
00:26:21.440 --> 00:26:26.680
video recordings, Google Drive documents, ChatGPT documents.

439
00:26:26.680 --> 00:26:28.920
You can put anything in there.

440
00:26:28.920 --> 00:26:31.640
And then you can ask for anything out.

441
00:26:31.640 --> 00:26:34.040
You can ask it to produce an audio,

442
00:26:34.040 --> 00:26:38.120
ask it to produce a slide deck, make a video, make a mind map,

443
00:26:38.120 --> 00:26:41.200
make a report, make flashcards, make a quiz,

444
00:26:41.200 --> 00:26:42.800
make an infographic.

445
00:26:42.800 --> 00:26:48.520
So what is so amazing is some of the stuff

446
00:26:48.520 --> 00:26:52.440
that when I ask it to do that, the graphics are incredible.

447
00:26:52.440 --> 00:26:55.640
They're way better than ChatGPT.

448
00:26:55.640 --> 00:26:58.960
It will shoot.

449
00:26:58.960 --> 00:26:59.480
There we go.

450
00:26:59.480 --> 00:27:01.360
I thought I disconnected this for a second.

451
00:27:01.360 --> 00:27:06.200
It will, I haven't used it, but I've been in awe.

452
00:27:06.200 --> 00:27:08.600
It will create a perfect slide deck for you,

453
00:27:08.600 --> 00:27:14.000
a perfect PowerPoint from your materials.

454
00:27:14.000 --> 00:27:16.320
You can give it your branding colors.

455
00:27:16.480 --> 00:27:19.280
It'll do everything in your brand, your font.

456
00:27:19.280 --> 00:27:22.800
So just for the sake of every time now that you're

457
00:27:22.800 --> 00:27:25.280
creating a lot of things, just creating

458
00:27:25.280 --> 00:27:28.760
a new notebook for the different types of things

459
00:27:28.760 --> 00:27:31.600
that you can go back and ask it for anything,

460
00:27:31.600 --> 00:27:35.120
and it just gathers your materials for you.

461
00:27:35.120 --> 00:27:35.920
That's awesome.

462
00:27:35.920 --> 00:27:36.440
I love that.

463
00:27:36.440 --> 00:27:37.560
I've never heard of it.

464
00:27:37.560 --> 00:27:39.160
It's super awesome.

465
00:27:39.160 --> 00:27:42.120
And that is in there.

466
00:27:42.120 --> 00:27:44.600
You could just watch when I teach that,

467
00:27:44.600 --> 00:27:47.440
or you can go in and play with it.

468
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:49.200
So yeah, that's some of the resources

469
00:27:49.200 --> 00:27:51.880
that you have access on the membership site.

470
00:27:51.880 --> 00:27:52.400
Awesome.

471
00:27:52.400 --> 00:27:54.720
And do you know if that's a free resource?

472
00:27:54.720 --> 00:27:56.520
Is it like ChatGPT, or do you have to pay?

473
00:27:56.520 --> 00:27:58.000
I think so.

474
00:27:58.000 --> 00:27:59.120
I can't remember.

475
00:27:59.120 --> 00:28:01.920
If I paid, it was really small, but I want to say it's free.

476
00:28:01.920 --> 00:28:02.720
I can't remember.

477
00:28:02.720 --> 00:28:06.440
I want to say it's free because it's a Google product.

478
00:28:06.440 --> 00:28:08.320
I think it probably, like anything,

479
00:28:08.320 --> 00:28:10.320
it's probably got an introductory free,

480
00:28:10.320 --> 00:28:11.840
and then it's got a paid.

481
00:28:11.840 --> 00:28:13.320
I'm not paying right now.

482
00:28:13.320 --> 00:28:14.400
I don't get any bills.

483
00:28:14.400 --> 00:28:15.800
So yeah, I think it's free.

484
00:28:15.800 --> 00:28:17.800
I don't have any bills from it.

485
00:28:17.800 --> 00:28:18.800
Yeah.

486
00:28:18.800 --> 00:28:19.920
Yeah.

487
00:28:19.920 --> 00:28:21.680
Yeah, so yeah, I'd love to hear.

488
00:28:21.680 --> 00:28:24.840
Come back and share with the group how you used it.

489
00:28:24.840 --> 00:28:28.640
I mean, it's actually quite wild what you can do.

490
00:28:28.640 --> 00:28:33.520
So just playing, just have fun with it.

491
00:28:33.520 --> 00:28:36.600
You can upload all those kind of documents,

492
00:28:36.600 --> 00:28:38.720
and you can say create a podcast.

493
00:28:38.720 --> 00:28:42.600
And it'll actually create two memes, like two podcast people,

494
00:28:42.600 --> 00:28:44.080
and you can set their description.

495
00:28:44.080 --> 00:28:46.160
It's two moms, for example.

496
00:28:46.160 --> 00:28:48.080
And they're having a conversation

497
00:28:48.080 --> 00:28:50.800
like it's with a live audience, and they're

498
00:28:50.800 --> 00:28:53.240
talking about your stuff back and forth.

499
00:28:53.240 --> 00:28:56.760
And the audience can actually engage, and it responds.

500
00:28:56.760 --> 00:29:00.640
I mean, it's wild the level of what you can do with this.

501
00:29:00.640 --> 00:29:02.320
It's really quite crazy.

502
00:29:02.320 --> 00:29:04.800
But at the simplest level, it can organize.

503
00:29:04.800 --> 00:29:06.160
It can make a mind map.

504
00:29:06.160 --> 00:29:09.000
It can make a slide deck or a presentation.

505
00:29:09.000 --> 00:29:11.200
You can ask it to make an infographic.

506
00:29:11.200 --> 00:29:13.760
You see all these infographics popping up now.

507
00:29:13.760 --> 00:29:16.320
It'll make an if, like if you have a system that you're

508
00:29:16.320 --> 00:29:18.880
talking about or a workshop pathway or something,

509
00:29:18.880 --> 00:29:22.240
it'll make an infographic of that system.

510
00:29:22.240 --> 00:29:24.320
Wow, that is really cool.

511
00:29:24.320 --> 00:29:25.520
That is wild.

512
00:29:25.520 --> 00:29:28.720
Yeah, right now with AI, it's just a wild world

513
00:29:28.720 --> 00:29:29.520
that we live in.

514
00:29:29.520 --> 00:29:34.040
So you'll notice I always tend to be

515
00:29:34.040 --> 00:29:35.680
kind of on the front end of stuff.

516
00:29:35.680 --> 00:29:37.280
I have like all my life.

517
00:29:37.280 --> 00:29:40.840
And so you'll notice being part of the membership,

518
00:29:40.840 --> 00:29:43.440
the Prosper Leader membership, we

519
00:29:43.440 --> 00:29:47.480
had a lot of cool stuff that people didn't know and didn't

520
00:29:47.480 --> 00:29:48.200
use.

521
00:29:48.200 --> 00:29:51.800
And I mean, when chat GPT, nobody had even heard of it.

522
00:29:51.800 --> 00:29:55.160
I already had some masterclasses on here

523
00:29:55.160 --> 00:29:56.760
for them to learn how to use it.

524
00:29:56.760 --> 00:29:58.880
They're outdated now because everything

525
00:29:58.880 --> 00:30:01.360
changes every five minutes.

526
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:04.920
minutes. But yes, yeah, we do. We do stuff like that, too. So

527
00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:08.080
awesome. Do you have any other questions? Anything I can cover?

528
00:30:08.080 --> 00:30:10.440
Otherwise, we'll just make it a short day and let you get back

529
00:30:10.440 --> 00:30:11.760
to working on your live.

530
00:30:12.760 --> 00:30:16.920
I can't think of anything else. I can have questions. I'm going

531
00:30:16.920 --> 00:30:20.760
to definitely, you know, look at those resources. So those are

532
00:30:20.760 --> 00:30:21.840
very helpful.

533
00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:24.480
Yeah, this is time to play with it.

534
00:30:25.160 --> 00:30:32.280
Yeah, so, um, I can't. Yeah, I can't think of anything right

535
00:30:32.280 --> 00:30:32.480
now.

536
00:30:32.720 --> 00:30:36.120
Okay, well, I just put blessings on your live and

537
00:30:36.120 --> 00:30:40.520
appreciate you coming on here live. And normally, we've got a

538
00:30:40.520 --> 00:30:44.720
good crowd here. So we'll see you next time. It's every

539
00:30:44.720 --> 00:30:48.480
Wednesday, every Thursday, and blessings, blessings to you.

540
00:30:49.040 --> 00:30:50.200
Thank you so much, Brenda.

541
00:30:50.480 --> 00:30:51.400
Alrighty, bye.

542
00:30:51.440 --> 00:30:52.120
Bye.
