00:00:01.778 --> 00:00:08.378
Welcome to How I AI the podcast featuring real people, real stories, and real AI in action.
00:00:08.500 --> 00:00:15.272
Hi, I'm Brooke Gramer your host and guide on this journey of the real world impact of artificial intelligence.
00:00:15.522 --> 00:00:22.422
For over 15 years, I've worked in creative marketing events and business strategy, wearing all the hats.
00:00:22.812 --> 00:00:29.832
I know the struggle of trying to scale and manage all things without burning out, but here's the game changer, AI.
00:00:30.643 --> 00:00:32.262
This isn't just a podcast.
00:00:32.563 --> 00:00:53.810
How I AI is a community, a space where curious minds like you come together, share ideas, and I'll also bring you exclusive discounts, and insider resources, because AI isn't just a trend, it's a shift, and the sooner we embrace it, the more freedom, creativity, and opportunities will unlock.
00:00:54.509 --> 00:00:55.869
Hello and welcome back.
00:00:56.009 --> 00:00:58.420
And if you're new here, you're in for a treat.
00:00:58.890 --> 00:01:02.009
I have a very special behind-the-scenes episode today.
00:01:02.259 --> 00:01:09.066
I'm giving you an inside look of the event hosted during New York Tech Week this past June called She Ships.
00:01:09.566 --> 00:01:13.796
It was an in-person workshop that I put together with my co-host, Marian Bacol.
00:01:14.147 --> 00:01:24.777
We created it for women who have ideas, felt curious about building with vibe coding tools for the first time, or simply just wanted a supportive space to explore.
00:01:25.277 --> 00:01:32.117
So for today, you'll hear the live room, feel the energy, and see what it feels like to step into one of our in-person events.
00:01:32.617 --> 00:01:37.856
Some women came in with a very clear concept, while others had never built anything like this before.
00:01:38.337 --> 00:01:47.507
And our goal really was simple: to help women get clear, create something tangible, and leave knowing they were capable of building with vibe coding tools.
00:01:48.007 --> 00:01:55.197
So for today's episode, you'll hear us talk honestly about career pivots, being a beginner again.
00:01:55.376 --> 00:02:09.847
We'll walk you through real examples of women turning live experiences into useful products and you'll get to watch as we move our attendees from step by step of creating an actual first vision using Claude and Lovable.
00:02:10.347 --> 00:02:17.936
I help everyone get clear on what they're uniquely qualified to create, who their product is for, and why it matters.
00:02:18.436 --> 00:02:22.945
If you've listened to this podcast, you might have already been familiar with my co-host, Marian.
00:02:23.265 --> 00:02:25.316
She's the tech founder of Somarae.
00:02:25.556 --> 00:02:29.566
She's also a lovable ambassador and an incredible community builder.
00:02:30.066 --> 00:02:42.098
You'll hear her share a bit more about her own path into becoming a tech founder and her practical process for clarifying, building, and shipping without waiting for everything to be perfect.
00:02:42.598 --> 00:02:46.918
For this replay, we actually skipped over over an hour of Q&A in the end.
00:02:47.177 --> 00:02:51.138
For that full experience, you'll have to catch us in person for our next event.
00:02:51.638 --> 00:02:56.157
All right, let's go behind the scenes of She Ships during New York Tech Week.
00:02:56.407 --> 00:02:58.715
Welcome to She Ships.
00:02:59.495 --> 00:03:08.354
My name is Marian Bacol, and my co-host Brooke here uh, we're really excited to host this live build session.
00:03:08.645 --> 00:03:16.235
But before we start anything else, I'd love to just get us grounded into this space, into this moment.
00:03:16.485 --> 00:03:22.735
Because especially with Tech Week, there is so much going on, I invite you to just be present.
00:03:22.870 --> 00:03:26.780
And we're going to do three rounds of really quick breathwork.
00:03:26.789 --> 00:03:31.460
So inhale twice with your mouth, and you also exhale with your mouth.
00:03:31.509 --> 00:03:33.810
Inhale, big sip.
00:03:38.153 --> 00:03:50.943
In just those three breaths, a psychological, physiological sigh can actually help shift your brain functions from your amygdala, which is your, where anxiety lives and all this stress.
00:03:51.234 --> 00:03:53.243
It's the survival brain.
00:03:53.503 --> 00:03:57.584
It shifts to your prefrontal cortex and is more for decision-making.
00:03:57.593 --> 00:03:58.503
You're more calmer.
00:03:58.514 --> 00:03:59.533
You're more present.
00:03:59.813 --> 00:04:03.223
So thank you so much for being here, for being present.
00:04:03.473 --> 00:04:08.813
We really wanted to do this for, for women because I'm just going to be straight out.
00:04:08.813 --> 00:04:11.243
I think women are the best creators.
00:04:11.243 --> 00:04:23.314
We build so much with intention, with heart, and I think we just want more women to not only build, create, but make money, and I really want a matriarchal takeover.
00:04:23.564 --> 00:04:40.254
But but no, I really truly believe after working with women for almost 20 years, women just build with more intention, and studies have shown that when women succeed, the community succeeds, uh, because we reinvest it back into our community.
00:04:40.504 --> 00:04:44.053
So this is really a passion project.
00:04:44.163 --> 00:04:45.584
I have my own startup.
00:04:45.694 --> 00:04:47.264
Uh, I'm a Lovable ambassador.
00:04:47.514 --> 00:04:56.834
But we decided to put this together because we truly believe in having a space where women can build, create, learn, and also just synergize with each other.
00:04:57.043 --> 00:04:59.834
So I'm going to have Brooke say a few words.
00:05:00.833 --> 00:05:01.163
Hi, everyone.
00:05:01.233 --> 00:05:01.642
I'm Brooke.
00:05:02.115 --> 00:05:07.865
I'm gonna run you all through a clarity exercise, something that I love to work with individuals.
00:05:08.115 --> 00:05:12.386
In my personal network, I've seen a really big need for what I'm gonna walk you through today.
00:05:12.636 --> 00:05:16.696
And then we're gonna vibe code with, with Marian, uh, soon.
00:05:16.946 --> 00:05:22.536
And then there's gonna be an option for us to share and showcase, completely optional, no pressure.
00:05:22.545 --> 00:05:27.735
If you build something you're really excited about, um, we'll be able to do a little show and tell.
00:05:27.735 --> 00:05:37.536
And then I know sometimes we like to keep the conversations going, so we're gonna do a little off campus at Eataly Flatiron if you make a new friend today and wanna keep it going.
00:05:37.786 --> 00:05:40.355
So we obviously are all here today.
00:05:40.355 --> 00:05:45.766
It's, it's Tech Week, and AI is on everyone's mind right now.
00:05:46.016 --> 00:05:52.196
And it might be giving you a very vulnerable feeling of being a newcomer for the first time in a long time.
00:05:52.216 --> 00:05:57.565
Maybe some of us have been in our careers for ten years, fifteen years, and now we have to start all over again.
00:05:57.615 --> 00:06:06.245
Um, you know, Founders and creatives are now discovering that they can be the leader of their destiny they can build for the first time.
00:06:06.245 --> 00:06:22.680
And what I want to walk you through today is a really important first step, because we don't want to just be diving in and haphazardly just building things just to say,"Oh, I made this with AI." Not only is it, like, super wasteful for the environment, but it's gonna put you in a space where it's not sustainable.
00:06:22.730 --> 00:06:26.300
So that's really the, the meaning behind what I'm gonna show you today.
00:06:26.550 --> 00:06:29.850
And for those of you who don't know me, my name's Brooke.
00:06:29.860 --> 00:06:31.781
If we're not connected, please reach out.
00:06:32.031 --> 00:06:34.130
And a little bit about me.
00:06:34.261 --> 00:06:37.680
I have a background in marketing and events.
00:06:37.961 --> 00:06:47.540
I find myself really, uh, in the strategic space right now, supporting everybody from personal development to AI adoption.
00:06:47.790 --> 00:06:51.951
And personally, I've pivoted my career many times.
00:06:51.951 --> 00:06:56.800
I've moved from working in the entertainment industry in Los Angeles.
00:06:57.050 --> 00:07:02.670
I lived here in New York for a little over four years working in tech SaaS and client onboarding.
00:07:03.137 --> 00:07:04.858
I live in Miami now.
00:07:04.858 --> 00:07:06.867
I've been there for about four years.
00:07:07.117 --> 00:07:17.918
And I worked in hospitality and hotels, and I found myself in the last year and a half really being lit up by this opportunity that AI brings us.
00:07:17.947 --> 00:07:25.528
It's so expansive, especially as women, where we crave independent flexibility in our work and our lifestyles.
00:07:25.557 --> 00:07:29.067
Um, So I have an AI podcast.
00:07:29.117 --> 00:07:31.788
I'm the original host of How I AI.
00:07:31.838 --> 00:07:35.567
I started it a little over a year and a half ago.
00:07:35.817 --> 00:07:48.997
I have over fifty-five interviews with founders and entrepreneurs, and it's really getting to the root of their discoverability and their leverage of this technology.
00:07:48.997 --> 00:07:54.071
It's storytelling at its root and very empowering, and I highly recommend you jump into that.
00:07:54.531 --> 00:07:58.750
And it's been a really fun way for me to learn about AI as well.
00:07:58.980 --> 00:08:08.850
So, The moral of this arc, I don't know if anybody sees themselves in my story of what the heck, like moving all around, all these different industries, pivoting.
00:08:08.901 --> 00:08:10.951
Every two years it's like,"I'm bored.
00:08:10.951 --> 00:08:13.850
Let's do something else." Does anybody relate to that?
00:08:15.091 --> 00:08:15.701
Yeah.
00:08:16.060 --> 00:08:21.060
But we have such a, an advantage right now with, with AI because we can start fresh.
00:08:21.071 --> 00:08:25.261
You might be really craving new ways to make passive income.
00:08:25.511 --> 00:08:30.451
You might be finding yourself as what I call the accidental founder.
00:08:30.461 --> 00:08:41.311
A lot of people are accidentally vibe coding, and months go by and all of a sudden 500 mothers are using their app because they found a really important niche in the market.
00:08:41.561 --> 00:08:42.750
Really exciting times.
00:08:42.770 --> 00:08:51.030
So I can really feel like we're standing at the edge of something new, and that's really where I love to support, especially other women.
00:08:51.280 --> 00:09:01.380
So I want to ask you all today, maybe you came in with an idea, maybe you have no idea what you want to create, but I really want to ask, what are you building from?
00:09:01.630 --> 00:09:04.360
We can build anything at the drop of a hat.
00:09:04.610 --> 00:09:11.510
How many of you for a show of hands have used Lovable yet before today?
00:09:12.931 --> 00:09:18.520
Okay, maybe what about something else like Cur- Cursor, Bolt, AI Studio, Google?
00:09:19.490 --> 00:09:23.191
And anybody in the room has never really done this before?
00:09:23.191 --> 00:09:28.510
Maybe you like created a, an account, but you've never really intentionally learned how to-- Vibe Code.
00:09:29.171 --> 00:09:29.811
Awesome.
00:09:29.821 --> 00:09:30.791
Love to see that.
00:09:30.791 --> 00:09:31.421
Love to see that.
00:09:31.421 --> 00:09:32.221
You're in the right place.
00:09:33.581 --> 00:09:36.791
And the bottleneck isn't we don't have, that we don't have access.
00:09:36.791 --> 00:09:38.061
It's not even affordability.
00:09:38.061 --> 00:09:39.831
The resources are there now.
00:09:39.831 --> 00:09:42.900
It's really the clarity and the intention that we start with.
00:09:43.150 --> 00:09:48.041
It's not about how-- knowing how to build, it's knowing what you're building from.
00:09:48.041 --> 00:09:57.230
And you might have heard the, the term of a ship and its compass, and if you're going the wrong way, you know, the longer you go, the more out of alignment you are.
00:09:57.230 --> 00:09:59.951
So it's really about direction is what I'm getting at.
00:10:00.201 --> 00:10:17.870
So before you ship anything tonight um, or even if you want to journal on this this weekend and this evening, I challenge you to really sit down and think about not just what can I make or how can I use AI, but what am I uniquely qualified to create?
00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:20.591
What makes this mine to build?
00:10:20.841 --> 00:10:21.691
Why this?
00:10:21.941 --> 00:10:22.660
Why me?
00:10:22.740 --> 00:10:23.530
And why now?
00:10:23.780 --> 00:10:29.551
Some of these ideas that you come up with might be things that you're living through right now or have lived through in the past.
00:10:30.301 --> 00:10:34.171
It might be a problem in your local community you keep noticing.
00:10:34.421 --> 00:10:43.770
It might be a community or a group or a subgroup or a culture that you are really passionate and, and carefully connected to.
00:10:44.020 --> 00:10:48.301
Um, you might be coming up to a personal problem that you just wanna personally solve.
00:10:48.331 --> 00:10:55.480
Maybe you have a problem in your own business or you work for other people, and there's just ways to do something better.
00:10:55.730 --> 00:10:57.280
Or it could be something fun.
00:10:57.311 --> 00:11:03.780
I think that that's a really cool way to start exploring AI for the first time, is just to have fun with it.
00:11:04.030 --> 00:11:12.855
You know, it can be a really cool way to connect with children, make- making music or, come up with ways where they can interact and be present with you.
00:11:13.105 --> 00:11:15.806
Use Sonos is a really cool one to do stuff like that.
00:11:15.846 --> 00:11:24.135
But that's gonna really put you in such a competitive advantage because there's a lot of copycats out there, for one.
00:11:24.196 --> 00:11:26.885
I'll go over an example about that soon.
00:11:27.135 --> 00:11:36.395
But you wanna be really focusing on what it is that you're creating that another AI or another person that knows how to create something can just mirror and copy you right off the bat.
00:11:36.416 --> 00:11:46.855
So, if you wanna feel very lit up, energized, and connected, because when you create something that is making meaningful difference and a true impact, it's gonna take a lot of your energy.
00:11:46.865 --> 00:11:48.885
It's gonna take a lot of your focus.
00:11:49.135 --> 00:11:57.096
Um, so this is what I like to really walk people through before they're creating And that's why I created this really cool framework.
00:11:57.346 --> 00:12:02.635
Um, this really just came out of the idea because a lot of people were coming up to me in my personal network.
00:12:02.885 --> 00:12:05.535
I, I wanna switch up my work.
00:12:05.716 --> 00:12:08.806
I'm feeling called to do more meaningful things.
00:12:09.056 --> 00:12:12.846
How can I use AI to, to get me different places?
00:12:12.885 --> 00:12:14.556
I want more flexibility.
00:12:14.806 --> 00:12:17.745
Um, so all these people are coming to me and they're like,"What, what can I do?
00:12:17.745 --> 00:12:40.285
What should I do?" And they know that I've jumped around quite a bit, and so they're like,"Wow, that's so-- such a vulnerable space to be new, to maybe have to demote your, your title if you're in a new industry." And, um, so I put up this product called AIdentity Method, and what it is, it's a clarity framework so you can build what fits you.
00:12:40.535 --> 00:12:43.206
And maybe you've seen a Venn diagram before.
00:12:43.265 --> 00:13:03.725
Um, there's a lot of really cool methodologies that put things like this together, and it's-- At the center is gonna be your product idea, and you're gonna be blending a lot of your life experience, your personal passion, your unique skills, because what comes easy for us might not come easy to other people.
00:13:03.975 --> 00:13:07.926
And AI is really just gonna be the fire hose and the amplifier.
00:13:07.936 --> 00:13:11.966
You know, a lot of people start with the AI, and they're leaving out the rest.
00:13:12.216 --> 00:13:17.446
And AI is just a fire hose onto whatever it is that you wanna be excelling and scaling.
00:13:17.696 --> 00:13:39.666
But if all the other stuff isn't connected, um, and I'm sure Marian will go more into design thinking soon before actually building product but if you have a broken system or if you are connecting to the right audience or maybe there's no really target demo for what it is that you wanna give and create or produce, um, then it's not gonna work out.
00:13:39.666 --> 00:13:46.905
So this is a really cool uh, thing I put together, and I'm gonna run through just a couple case studies'cause I think case studies are fun.
00:13:47.155 --> 00:13:47.696
One second.
00:13:47.946 --> 00:13:49.966
So this is a woman named Maya.
00:13:50.216 --> 00:13:53.216
She was actually a guest on my podcast, like pretty early on.
00:13:53.466 --> 00:14:03.436
She just reached out to me and wanted to be on my show, and I, you know, take calls with everybody who goes on my podcast for just um, vibe check, right?
00:14:03.576 --> 00:14:05.326
And she was so awesome.
00:14:05.336 --> 00:14:09.956
She is a mother of two, occupational therapist.
00:14:10.206 --> 00:14:14.535
She had two children that both had very severe food allergies.
00:14:14.785 --> 00:14:22.495
And by nature of her background, she's used to tracking and logging data and taking care of patients, very attention to detail.
00:14:22.495 --> 00:14:36.691
She didn't go into this thinking,"I wanna be a tech founder." Um, but she needed something for her own tracking and management so she created-- she used actually an app called Bolt.new, and, she made this product called Map My Milk.
00:14:36.941 --> 00:14:47.081
And she started reaching out to Reddit groups, Facebook groups, really connecting to her, her target audience, and connecting to other women, and she, she saw such a huge gap in the market and a need for this.
00:14:47.230 --> 00:14:54.500
So many women were struggling with, with breastfeeding and tracking because, um, you can imagine all the allergies that there are today.
00:14:54.530 --> 00:14:55.270
There's so many.
00:14:55.520 --> 00:15:02.221
Um, the thing about Maya is she had about, like, five hundred women on her app in, in just a handful of months.
00:15:02.221 --> 00:15:02.620
I don't know.
00:15:02.620 --> 00:15:03.520
I haven't checked in with her.
00:15:03.520 --> 00:15:05.211
It's probably double that by now.
00:15:05.461 --> 00:15:15.150
And she's the one that, uh, a gentleman just kind of created a, a very similar tracker to try to copy what she was doing and take over the market.
00:15:15.280 --> 00:15:20.260
And copycats came on her socials trying to steal her community.
00:15:20.510 --> 00:15:27.541
But she was so connected, and she was a woman who breastfed, and she was the one who was connecting to these communities.
00:15:27.791 --> 00:15:30.480
She knew firsthand what to experience.
00:15:30.480 --> 00:15:35.605
She knew great developments to add in that the women truly needed because she lived it.
00:15:35.855 --> 00:15:47.716
And not only that, when these competitors came into the market, it didn't discourage her because she was so connected to her why and her passion that it kept her and it fueled her to continue going.
00:15:48.216 --> 00:15:53.946
Another example I love to share is Miss Marian, who we'll hear about later today.
00:15:54.196 --> 00:16:01.115
And with her experience with Somarae she started, you know, not thinking that she was gonna be a tech founder.
00:16:01.125 --> 00:16:04.905
I'm sure if you asked her ten, 15 years ago, What's your life goal?
00:16:04.916 --> 00:16:07.946
Do you wanna be a tech founder?" She probably would have said no.
00:16:08.475 --> 00:16:31.495
But her healing journey and everything that she experienced throughout her life, which I'm sure she'll be going into more deeply here in just a minute when we start to build um, background in community facilitating, really understanding as a high achiever herself and all the, the entrepreneurial spirit that she's had her whole life with her businesses, what it means to be burnt out.
00:16:31.515 --> 00:16:40.985
And she's a, she's a woman, obviously, and so she's very connected to her cycle, and she found that that really affected, uh, her nervous system.
00:16:40.995 --> 00:16:49.475
And she was able to integrate all of these things as if, you know, her lived experience, and she's very passionate about what she does and what she's created.
00:16:49.725 --> 00:16:51.966
And so you can really just kinda connect the dots here.
00:16:51.995 --> 00:16:57.456
The you, your why, your skills, how AI is gonna make you go further.
00:16:57.456 --> 00:17:02.466
For example, she created her app, on Lovable, which we're gonna learn about more today.
00:17:02.591 --> 00:17:04.790
And she's very connected to the, the client.
00:17:04.800 --> 00:17:09.070
She's already generating revenue in, in less than a year on her app, which is just incredible.
00:17:09.320 --> 00:17:19.451
You really have to be connected to the client and know that there's, like, a market for it because people are gonna want to part with their cold, h- hard cash for what it is that you're providing for them.
00:17:19.701 --> 00:17:25.330
And she knows that that's a, a really uniquely qualified market because she's lived it.
00:17:25.580 --> 00:17:29.461
Um, because we don't wanna just be creating things that there's no market for.
00:17:29.461 --> 00:17:31.901
So really being tuned into your client.
00:17:32.026 --> 00:17:38.605
And again, that, that passion that she has to propel it forward, and she's working day in and day out.
00:17:38.625 --> 00:17:54.576
She's gone to every tech week in every city this year, connecting with her community because she's so fueled by what it is that she does So in conclusion, I am asking you to really reflect on, on what it is that you're here to ship today.
00:17:54.576 --> 00:17:57.506
There's a few different ways that you can be building.
00:17:57.635 --> 00:18:03.905
For example, if you're wanting to explain an idea, you can build just a, a landing page or a sales page.
00:18:04.155 --> 00:18:19.286
If you're wanting to qualify people, uh, if you're creating an idea or just wanna get feedback, kind of like a focus group, you can build a quiz or an intake form to have people really in a fun way move through what it is that they're doing.
00:18:19.411 --> 00:18:29.740
And if you need to build a proof of concept and make sure that there is an actual market demand for what it is that you're creating, you can build out a simple prototype for an app.
00:18:29.990 --> 00:18:34.441
So for example, bringing it all together, what people were coming to me for, how can I use AI?
00:18:34.441 --> 00:18:36.260
I'm in a-- I wanna pivot.
00:18:36.260 --> 00:18:37.830
I don't know what I wanna do.
00:18:38.080 --> 00:18:41.540
I don't know what I really wanna create, but I'm, I'm-- want you to help me.
00:18:41.790 --> 00:18:52.840
So I, uh, back in November, created on Google AI Studio, a really cool way to bring people through this Venn diagram process, and made it within a couple of days and fine-tuned it.
00:18:52.965 --> 00:18:58.506
So if you all wanna check it out, I'll give you the, the link to play around with it tonight.
00:18:58.506 --> 00:19:00.685
It walks you through this clarity exercise.
00:19:00.685 --> 00:19:02.205
It asks you a bunch of questions.
00:19:02.205 --> 00:19:04.415
I always encourage you all to journal.
00:19:04.895 --> 00:19:09.175
Anytime you're using AI to give you feedback, always tune in with yourself first.
00:19:09.425 --> 00:19:18.786
Use AI as kind of like a, an amplifier for what it is that you know intuitively, and maybe to just kind of like fact-check things, do a lot of research.
00:19:18.961 --> 00:19:21.740
I always like to say that when working with AI.
00:19:23.144 --> 00:19:37.585
So if you wanna work with me, this is what I do and love is more around personal development, supporting women and those that are in the Kickstarter phase of their business, playing around with ideas, needing more support around clarity.
00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:50.559
You know, a lot of people come to me and they're like,"Oh, I know I need AI," but they don't really understand, you know, what AI can actually do for them and to maximize their ROI and figuring out where's the right place because AI doesn't belong everywhere.
00:19:50.859 --> 00:19:57.539
It especially doesn't belong in where your secret sauce is and what is uniquely yours to, to put out there.
00:19:57.549 --> 00:20:03.450
So if you grab the QR code here, you'll be able to do that AIdentity experience.
00:20:03.450 --> 00:20:05.309
It should take you like ten, 15 minutes.
00:20:05.319 --> 00:20:06.089
It's really fun.
00:20:06.349 --> 00:20:07.279
I love quizzes.
00:20:07.279 --> 00:20:18.744
I think they're really cool to just go through, and it gives you three paths of a, a product that you can put together, and you reflect back on your life experience, and it gives you back some ideas.
00:20:18.744 --> 00:20:27.269
And it really can just be a springboard and a starting place, for you to get creative of what it is that only you can really create with AI.
00:20:28.031 --> 00:20:30.862
So that's it for me.
00:20:30.951 --> 00:20:41.731
I wanna just say thank you for, um, listening to this little clarity experience and exercise, and this is just a starting lens for everything that we're gonna be doing tonight.
00:20:41.731 --> 00:20:47.301
I'm super excited to see what all of you are going to be building with Marian coming up.
00:20:47.527 --> 00:20:52.656
You just need a starting point with enough truth in it to build a first version.
00:20:52.666 --> 00:20:54.186
So good luck.
00:20:54.186 --> 00:20:58.186
I hope this really lit you up in a really exciting way.
00:20:58.287 --> 00:21:03.023
I'm excited to see everything that you all create tonight, and thank you so much for being here.
00:21:04.472 --> 00:21:05.883
Thank you so much, Brooke.
00:21:05.932 --> 00:21:06.883
All right.
00:21:06.893 --> 00:21:12.542
So what Brooke mentioned, I never wanted to be a tech founder.
00:21:12.792 --> 00:21:15.823
I actually started in tech almost 20 years ago.
00:21:15.913 --> 00:21:17.232
I'm a lot older than I look.
00:21:17.482 --> 00:21:23.452
And I did marketing for tech, uh, one of- for a partner for one of the biggest Microsoft companies.
00:21:23.472 --> 00:21:27.292
I worked in corporate, climbed up the corporate ladder, was in marketing.
00:21:27.542 --> 00:21:31.383
And in 2014, and I checked off all the boxes.
00:21:31.462 --> 00:21:35.272
I am the eldest daughter of Asian immigrants, so I was an overachiever.
00:21:35.522 --> 00:21:42.252
So the burnout was real, but I didn't know before that there was a term for being a high-functioning depressive.
00:21:42.502 --> 00:21:48.972
I was also a high-functioning alcoholic because professionally, everything was beautiful and great and curated.
00:21:49.222 --> 00:21:55.042
Personally, I just pushed myself even more because I didn't want to address a lot of things internally.
00:21:55.292 --> 00:21:59.113
So in 2014 On the peak of my career, I...
00:21:59.153 --> 00:22:01.423
And I actually grew up in, in LA, in California.
00:22:01.673 --> 00:22:03.623
I overdosed and had a near-death experience.
00:22:03.873 --> 00:22:05.282
And that was my big wake-up call.
00:22:05.532 --> 00:22:07.002
I knew something had to change.
00:22:07.173 --> 00:22:16.873
So I got a one-way ticket, moved from LA to Miami, and there, I actually started diving into a lot of things that I had pushed under the rug.
00:22:17.163 --> 00:22:19.823
So my healing journey was really for me.
00:22:19.883 --> 00:22:31.042
I got deep into healing, wellness, working with coaches, mentors, shamans, medicine women, psychedelics, plant medicine, meditated, got certified in meditation, breathwork.
00:22:31.292 --> 00:22:34.673
And I actually built a organic community.
00:22:34.673 --> 00:22:40.913
I just started sharing a lot of what I was experiencing because I'm like,"Why isn't this taught?" You know, these simple things.
00:22:41.163 --> 00:22:51.823
And I, for the past 12 years, actually became a coach, st- hosted retreats, workshops, all on primarily for women to come back to themselves.
00:22:52.073 --> 00:23:02.143
And about five, six years ago, even though I was meditating for two hours or more, when I went out into the real world, I was still triggered.
00:23:02.393 --> 00:23:04.432
My body was feeling all of this.
00:23:04.432 --> 00:23:05.623
I had CPTSD.
00:23:05.873 --> 00:23:12.133
And I started going more into body-based healing and wellness, so somatics, nervous system work.
00:23:12.202 --> 00:23:15.222
And the more that I actually did it, it changed my life.
00:23:15.232 --> 00:23:21.833
I got certified in trauma-informed somatic coaching, breathwork, started actually doing this work, traveling to do it.
00:23:22.532 --> 00:23:26.012
And it was actually my clients that led to this.
00:23:26.022 --> 00:23:27.063
So when it...
00:23:27.113 --> 00:23:29.143
You don't always have to have the idea then.
00:23:29.163 --> 00:23:30.333
This was the evolution.
00:23:30.343 --> 00:23:36.972
So last year, actually on my 40th birthday, I started getting a lot of my clients asking for the same thing.
00:23:37.222 --> 00:23:39.762
So I would share practices with them.
00:23:39.782 --> 00:23:40.823
They would go to the retreat.
00:23:40.883 --> 00:23:44.732
But people, especially women, do not complete our stress cycles.
00:23:44.982 --> 00:23:50.182
We actually hold it in, or we disassociate or gaslight ourselves from feeling any of that.
00:23:50.432 --> 00:23:53.182
And so we push it off instead of completing it.
00:23:53.192 --> 00:23:55.022
We wait for the retreat.
00:23:55.022 --> 00:23:55.903
We wait for the weekend.
00:23:55.903 --> 00:23:56.682
We wait for all of that.
00:23:56.702 --> 00:24:03.413
And physiologically, all that cortisol and adrenaline builds up in your body, and stress is known to be the silent killer.
00:24:03.442 --> 00:24:08.823
It is actually responsible for a lot of things, autoimmune diseases, a lot of things that people don't know about.
00:24:09.073 --> 00:24:10.932
And they were asking me for support.
00:24:10.942 --> 00:24:16.512
They were like,"What else can you give us to help when we're not on the coaching calls or retreats?" And I was making really...
00:24:16.512 --> 00:24:18.952
I was multiple six figures, really great.
00:24:18.952 --> 00:24:19.522
I was cushy.
00:24:19.522 --> 00:24:25.053
I'm like,"This is great." But it kept coming up, and I actually started looking for an app that would support them.
00:24:27.517 --> 00:24:28.717
Could not find anything.
00:24:28.737 --> 00:24:34.406
Actually, what I found was that most wellness apps were founded by men and do not integrate women's health.
00:24:34.656 --> 00:24:43.477
And I, for, I just couldn't in integrity really recommend something to them that I felt was truly what could support them.
00:24:43.727 --> 00:24:44.717
And so I decided to build it.
00:24:44.967 --> 00:24:46.747
And that's how Somarae came to be.
00:24:46.747 --> 00:25:05.086
So Somarae is a somatic wellness platform and community that specifically helps you with on-demand, personalized nervous system support for individuals and corporations that integrates science-backed practices and women's health, because our hormones play a big part in our regulation, our stress.
00:25:05.336 --> 00:25:09.007
We have personalized information for perimenopause, menopause, post.
00:25:09.487 --> 00:25:22.977
Um, And this is actually not my first company, first tech company, and I'm actually really grateful that I'm doing this now in my 40s, because I was such a people pleaser back then, but now I am so focused.
00:25:23.132 --> 00:25:29.991
I know that I have the confidence to make this a unicorn company, and I have the connections too because of the years of, uh, I've done it.
00:25:30.241 --> 00:25:33.961
And it really all goes back to what, you know, Brooke said.
00:25:33.991 --> 00:25:39.741
We don't know where our lives can take us, and this is really an unfolding because I listened to my community.
00:25:39.991 --> 00:25:47.402
And when I built my MVP, I already had customers and clients who gave me feedback, who were telling me what they needed.
00:25:47.652 --> 00:25:52.531
When we launched in January, we started becoming revenue producing because I built that trust with them.
00:25:52.781 --> 00:26:07.561
And, um, now I can't announce it yet, but we have pilot programs with some really large companies to bring nervous system intelligence to the workplace because studies have shown that leaders who are dysregulated affects the whole team.
00:26:07.571 --> 00:26:07.582
Mm.
00:26:07.832 --> 00:26:20.531
And wellbeing is actually so important to longevity, and the female nervous system, which only just got studied really the past 10 years, requires different things than what's been set up in the workplace.
00:26:20.781 --> 00:26:22.961
So that all came full circle.
00:26:22.961 --> 00:26:28.122
I'm back in tech I left because it was toxic, and I was really great, happy in my wellness thing.
00:26:28.122 --> 00:26:35.031
So now I'm back because I truly believe that women actually, when we put the dots together, we build something with intention.
00:26:35.321 --> 00:26:39.102
And so what you are shipping today, I want you to build with intention.
00:26:39.112 --> 00:26:43.692
You don't have to build a big business or become a tech founder, but build with intention.
00:26:43.922 --> 00:26:48.332
Intention for yourself, intention for whoever it is that you're building for.
00:26:48.342 --> 00:26:49.862
It could be you, right?
00:26:49.981 --> 00:26:51.321
But build intentionally.
00:26:51.332 --> 00:27:00.801
Not what you think other people want, but things that are connected to you, and then what your clients have, or customers, maybe that's you, ask you to.
00:27:01.051 --> 00:27:08.622
That way you have more energy for it and passion, and it really becomes a vibe.
00:27:08.791 --> 00:27:11.152
So that's actually where vibe coding came from.
00:27:11.352 --> 00:27:26.200
One of the co-founders of OpenAI Uh, did a paper, uh, actually in 2025 where he co- coined this word vibe coding, where you fully give into the vibes, embrace exponentials, and forget the code even exists.
00:27:26.240 --> 00:27:27.019
And you can.
00:27:27.029 --> 00:27:35.190
Like, it becomes so fun, you know, once you really learn how to clarify, build, and ship, which we will share.
00:27:35.190 --> 00:27:36.559
You will actually be building live.
00:27:36.599 --> 00:27:41.400
I'm going to go through this whole presentation first, and then we'll go step by step.
00:27:41.569 --> 00:27:42.779
I'll give few minutes.
00:27:42.779 --> 00:27:45.009
We'll have music, and you guys can actually build.
00:27:45.019 --> 00:27:55.140
So by the end of this, you can have an idea and have a published product that we will feature on a Lovable site that I created called Built By Women.
00:27:55.390 --> 00:27:55.440
Woo-hoo.
00:27:55.579 --> 00:27:56.259
All right?
00:27:56.509 --> 00:27:56.920
Okay.
00:27:56.930 --> 00:28:03.069
So, um, you get 100 credits, thank you to Lovable uh, for free to build.
00:28:03.319 --> 00:28:07.690
So open up Lovable, so lovable.dev on your laptops.
00:28:07.940 --> 00:28:11.789
Today we're going to be using both Lovable and Claude together.
00:28:11.980 --> 00:28:24.119
So Lovable uses Claude within Lovable, but I'm going to share with you how you're actually going to get the best prompting using Claude first and then building in Lovable.
00:28:24.369 --> 00:28:31.349
If you already have an account, you can still get the free credits by adding a new workspace.
00:28:31.599 --> 00:28:33.259
So you can build for free tonight.
00:28:33.460 --> 00:28:34.529
Thank you to Lovable.
00:28:34.779 --> 00:28:39.299
Woo-hoo amazing thing about Lovable um, they're an amazing company.
00:28:39.559 --> 00:28:43.839
Before I actually became a global ambassador, I was already using it.
00:28:43.880 --> 00:28:49.509
I'd actually used three other vibe coding platforms, and it just didn't flow.
00:28:49.509 --> 00:28:52.009
I really didn't feel that, like, vibiness to it.
00:28:52.009 --> 00:28:53.829
Like, I didn't get into flow state.
00:28:54.049 --> 00:28:57.529
For me, I'm, I'm very, like, I'm all about vibes and energy.
00:28:57.549 --> 00:28:58.660
Like, I'm pretty intuitive.
00:28:58.910 --> 00:29:06.029
And so I actually, once I started on Lovable, I'm like,"Let me just try building something to see how..." It just worked so well.
00:29:06.029 --> 00:29:10.549
I actually finished it in three days,'cause I was so in it.
00:29:10.799 --> 00:29:12.009
But you keep iterating.
00:29:12.059 --> 00:29:14.000
I have been updating this,
00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:14.690
um...
00:29:14.829 --> 00:29:23.470
We actually took it out of Lovable because we're we submitted it to the App Store, uh, which is a completely different animal.
00:29:23.720 --> 00:29:26.009
But with Lovable, it just flowed so well.
00:29:26.019 --> 00:29:27.160
It was more intuitive.
00:29:27.200 --> 00:29:32.250
Uh, it was just a lot of fun, and I've built a lot of different things from Lovable since then.
00:29:32.500 --> 00:29:32.849
Okay.
00:29:33.099 --> 00:29:45.869
So in another browser, open up claude.ai these are the two tools that we will be using and the beautiful part of this is that you can type it in or you can speak.
00:29:46.119 --> 00:29:57.595
So usually my setup at home when I'm vibe coding or using something is I have Lovable on one screen, Claude in another, and my phone, because I love just speaking to it and I use them simultaneously.
00:29:57.595 --> 00:30:01.663
No you can, the free version's fine?
00:30:01.913 --> 00:30:16.933
Yeah so the beautiful thing is that instead of using it straight into Lovable, which you can burn a lot of credits, and I'll share with you, like with AI, you can really burn a lot of credits trying to prompt and try to get something.
00:30:16.933 --> 00:30:22.163
So we're going to maximize where you burn less credits and are able to really refine.
00:30:22.163 --> 00:30:26.263
So what Brooke said, clarity is so important in the beginning.
00:30:26.513 --> 00:30:27.854
It's just, it's having a plan.
00:30:27.923 --> 00:30:30.223
Like anything, like you start a bus- you need a business plan.
00:30:30.223 --> 00:30:33.644
You need clarity before you actually, you know, build it and spend money.
00:30:33.653 --> 00:30:36.544
When you have more clarity, you build something better.
00:30:38.922 --> 00:30:46.511
So I use Claude to brainstorm to help with writing the actual prompt, and there is a finesse to prompting.
00:30:46.761 --> 00:30:56.902
There's actually positions now they've made with, like, chief prompting engineers because prompting properly actually gets you different results, and knowing how to prompt is really key.
00:30:57.152 --> 00:31:00.182
So a few things there's a lot of things that you can make.
00:31:00.192 --> 00:31:03.241
Don't think that you have to make the entire product now.
00:31:03.251 --> 00:31:06.662
Remember what Brooke said, just a, a little bit because you iterate.
00:31:06.721 --> 00:31:08.692
I'm constantly iterating, right?
00:31:08.701 --> 00:31:15.102
But get it to a point where you feel happy with publishing it, and then you can go back and iterate.
00:31:15.352 --> 00:31:21.092
So there's so many, there's so many uses for Lovable that you can actually...
00:31:21.132 --> 00:31:26.001
I've stopped subscriptions for a lot of other things'cause I've just decided to build it for myself.
00:31:26.251 --> 00:31:32.122
I used to have Wix, which was really expensive for my website, and now I-- it was, like, over 100 something.
00:31:32.122 --> 00:31:39.231
I don't know, it was just a lot, and I have canceled a lot of my other subscriptions because I've just been building a lot of it.
00:31:39.481 --> 00:31:45.942
Um, my funnels, uh, landing pages, you can do wait list, quizzes for your community.
00:31:45.942 --> 00:31:50.102
You can do resource libraries, community hubs, newsletters.
00:31:50.352 --> 00:31:52.922
It can be just for you or for others.
00:31:52.932 --> 00:32:03.652
So if you thought that you just use Claude, I'm sorry, Lovable, to build a whole big thing, which is amazing because you can become accidental founders, right?
00:32:03.652 --> 00:32:06.432
Which is beautiful'cause like I said, we need more women founders.
00:32:06.682 --> 00:32:11.031
You can build things like press kits, speaker pages, prototypes.
00:32:11.281 --> 00:32:20.701
It's amazing what you can build with it, and the more that you use it, the more that you'll actually become more creative and totally just, like, get into the vibe of creating.
00:32:20.951 --> 00:32:28.231
So I'm gonna share, uh, just three case studies so you can see someone in maybe these examples.
00:32:28.372 --> 00:32:31.402
And all of them are actually not founders.
00:32:31.432 --> 00:32:38.122
They're doing this either for their clients or for themselves because they see problems and they wanted to come up with a solution.
00:32:38.372 --> 00:32:42.001
So I actually built this Built By Women.
00:32:42.001 --> 00:32:49.902
This is where whoever wants to also submit their product um, you can submit it here and it is a showcase globally.
00:32:50.001 --> 00:32:51.971
Uh, I'm actually sending this to Lovable.
00:32:51.981 --> 00:32:53.071
They'll, they'll market it.
00:32:53.082 --> 00:33:00.672
So if you want to share your built product after, this will all go into the directory so that more people can see what you're doing and creating.
00:33:00.922 --> 00:33:03.092
So Lana actually works for Google.
00:33:03.342 --> 00:33:05.241
She has her own career.
00:33:05.261 --> 00:33:09.951
She's working in that, but we are m- multi-hyphenated, right?
00:33:10.201 --> 00:33:18.922
And so we live in a beautiful world where we can start something that starts as a side business, can end up being, you can found like a really amazing company.
00:33:19.172 --> 00:33:26.076
And so she was going to Cannes there's a creativity conference for Cannes, and she was like, it was so...
00:33:26.076 --> 00:33:27.826
it was hard to find where everything was.
00:33:28.076 --> 00:33:29.646
It was actually similar sometimes to Tech Week.
00:33:29.646 --> 00:33:31.196
It was just too much, right?
00:33:31.457 --> 00:33:35.477
Too much information, thousands of events, and was, and it didn't look pretty.
00:33:35.656 --> 00:33:36.977
I think women love aesthetics.
00:33:36.987 --> 00:33:41.156
Studies have shown that beauty actually affects us very positively.
00:33:41.406 --> 00:33:45.386
And so she's like,"The spreadsheets were ugly." It just, it was a problem.
00:33:45.636 --> 00:33:46.457
And so she's like,"You know what?
00:33:46.457 --> 00:33:49.856
Let me just do this for me." She did this for herself, okay?
00:33:50.106 --> 00:33:52.926
And um, it was fragmented.
00:33:52.946 --> 00:33:55.757
Events were spread out, spreadsheets, all of this stuff.
00:33:56.007 --> 00:34:00.636
So she just built this, and it connects to people's schedules.
00:34:00.636 --> 00:34:02.436
You can find out where you're going.
00:34:02.446 --> 00:34:02.936
You can...
00:34:03.007 --> 00:34:09.317
Her, some of her friends were there, and she actually just posted it on, um, LinkedIn and everyone's like,"This is amazing," and started using it.
00:34:09.317 --> 00:34:11.507
But she ow- she built it for her, right?
00:34:11.757 --> 00:34:17.646
And it has all the details, information, all just very beautifully laid out with a map.
00:34:17.907 --> 00:34:19.786
So it can be as simple as that, right?
00:34:20.036 --> 00:34:28.996
What I built, I didn't know that it would become a B2B SaaS company, but I just kept listening to my clients, my customers, my community.
00:34:29.246 --> 00:34:31.146
It's actually how I
00:34:32.356 --> 00:34:32.847
um,
00:34:33.597 --> 00:34:36.577
ended up launching a feature for perimenopause, menopause, and post.
00:34:36.827 --> 00:34:49.766
Because at first we were only doing, uh, integrating menstrual cycles, and a lot of my clients and people who would go to my facilitation, my events, my retreats, ended up being, you know, 40s, 50s, 60s, and was like,"I don't really relate to that.
00:34:49.956 --> 00:34:51.277
I'm kind of in this phase.
00:34:51.286 --> 00:34:52.597
Do you have things for us?
00:34:52.626 --> 00:34:58.726
Because we also need this tool." So I listened to that feedback, and I was able to iterate and create that feature for them.
00:34:59.246 --> 00:35:03.717
Um, so Carmen, created just a website for the sailing team.
00:35:03.967 --> 00:35:06.166
Not just, but an amazing sailing team.
00:35:06.177 --> 00:35:13.356
Before, they had a not so pretty website, uh, and sailing teams couldn't land sponsors.
00:35:13.396 --> 00:35:15.327
It was static PDFs.
00:35:15.396 --> 00:35:17.177
It w- didn't have storytelling.
00:35:17.427 --> 00:35:17.896
And so...
00:35:17.896 --> 00:35:24.077
And this is an all-women crew, and so she built this on Lovable, and it just looks more aesthetically pleasing.
00:35:24.086 --> 00:35:25.186
It's professional.
00:35:25.436 --> 00:35:26.617
It was branded.
00:35:27.657 --> 00:35:32.416
So you can do your own websites as well as do this for your clients And then Anna
00:35:35.251 --> 00:35:35.681
Uh,
00:35:35.740 --> 00:35:40.981
is a community builder, product leader, and she also built something for parents.
00:35:41.231 --> 00:35:43.860
So her story is she watched parents...
00:35:43.911 --> 00:35:45.440
And she did this really for herself.
00:35:45.451 --> 00:35:50.070
She was a parent, too, and all the other parents, they had outbreak days after exposure.
00:35:50.320 --> 00:35:55.320
And so she wanted to kinda track, like, who's getting sick, which kids.
00:35:55.590 --> 00:36:02.041
Uh, the parents could put in the data so they'll find out, like, who's getting sick, um, and be able to sort of help each other out in the community.
00:36:03.190 --> 00:36:05.050
Like, how amazing is that, right?
00:36:05.300 --> 00:36:06.840
All built on Lovable.
00:36:07.340 --> 00:36:08.090
All right.
00:36:08.340 --> 00:36:12.070
So hopefully that generates a lot of different ideas for everyone.
00:36:12.320 --> 00:36:16.300
And I'm gonna go through the stages, and then we'll have you build.
00:36:16.800 --> 00:36:20.541
So the three stages are clarify, build, and ship.
00:36:21.541 --> 00:36:27.041
Clarify, and I'll dive deeper into this, and you'll also get these slides afterwards as well.
00:36:27.061 --> 00:36:28.340
We'll email everything out.
00:36:28.590 --> 00:36:29.521
So you get really...
00:36:29.650 --> 00:36:31.181
Define your goal, right?
00:36:31.431 --> 00:36:32.231
What do you wanna create?
00:36:33.331 --> 00:36:39.820
Understand your audience who's going to use it, and kinda think about a little bit of, like, the plan.
00:36:39.831 --> 00:36:41.090
Like, you, you think through, right?
00:36:41.090 --> 00:36:44.960
Like, you, you plan out your week or maybe your vacation, right?
00:36:44.960 --> 00:36:46.650
You kinda think through some of the things.
00:36:46.661 --> 00:36:48.471
It doesn't have to be exact, right?
00:36:48.501 --> 00:36:49.851
'Cause you'll iterate as you go.
00:36:50.070 --> 00:36:56.030
But just have a general idea before you actually put the prompt, and I'm gonna demonstrate how to do that.
00:36:56.280 --> 00:37:00.760
Then build is when you put the prompt, and you're building it, and then you start iterating.
00:37:00.780 --> 00:37:01.740
"Okay, you know what?
00:37:01.951 --> 00:37:03.701
This color actually doesn't look good.
00:37:03.731 --> 00:37:05.280
I wanna add this section.
00:37:05.581 --> 00:37:07.001
I wanna clean this up.
00:37:07.251 --> 00:37:16.971
I thought I wanted it to look this way."'Cause sometimes what we think in our heads versus what comes out is like,"Mm, let me tweak this." So that's like the building, the molding part, and you test.
00:37:17.001 --> 00:37:18.490
And then you launch.
00:37:18.530 --> 00:37:20.550
And it does not have to be perfect.
00:37:20.800 --> 00:37:23.590
It just needs to get to a point where it works.
00:37:23.840 --> 00:37:30.951
And after working with women for 20 years, a lot of things that stop us is we strive for perfection.
00:37:31.201 --> 00:37:39.061
Men go after things with only 40%, thinking that they know it or all that, and they just try it out, and you learn as you go.
00:37:39.061 --> 00:37:41.061
But women wait, wait.
00:37:41.311 --> 00:37:44.061
I have friends and clients, I, who are like...
00:37:44.081 --> 00:37:54.400
who built amazing things, but they're like, No, maybe I need to, like, change the font or do this." And I'm like,"No, you just don't know until you go out there." So when I launched, it wasn't perfect.
00:37:54.420 --> 00:37:56.130
There was a lot more things that I wanted to do.
00:37:56.141 --> 00:37:58.331
Even in the app, there were so many other features.
00:37:58.331 --> 00:37:59.240
But I'm like,"You know what?
00:38:00.081 --> 00:38:04.550
I'll wait for the people using it to tell me what they want," and then iterate that.
00:38:04.561 --> 00:38:10.001
And actually, your community will love that because it, it signals that you actually are listening to them, right?
00:38:10.951 --> 00:38:13.360
And then shipping is where you iterate and you grow.
00:38:13.610 --> 00:38:15.190
So clarify.
00:38:15.201 --> 00:38:17.840
So I want you to pull up Claude.
00:38:17.911 --> 00:38:19.221
We're gonna use Claude first.
00:38:19.471 --> 00:38:22.231
And I'm gonna breeze through these slides, and then we're gonna go back to it.
00:38:22.481 --> 00:38:25.998
So it's your who, what, where, why, and the vibe.
00:38:26.248 --> 00:38:32.237
Once you have all that, so you'll be typing or talking through in Claude, kind of putting your ideas, filtering it.
00:38:32.487 --> 00:38:38.838
Once you come to a point where you're like,"Okay, this is kind of what I want it to do, and I'm ready," you have it create a markdown file.
00:38:39.088 --> 00:38:44.188
Because in Lovable, you can upload, when you put the prompt, upload a markdown file.
00:38:44.197 --> 00:38:47.628
You can upload if you want, like, a brand guide.
00:38:47.878 --> 00:39:00.648
You can upload examples of other websites to get a feel of, or, or pictures and be like,"Okay, I want it to look similar to this, uh, and here are sort of the directions," and then you put a prompt.
00:39:00.708 --> 00:39:14.168
And what it will give you is far better than if you just went straight to Lovable and said something with like,"Oh, build me, build me an app." You will waste more credits with, like, refining it because it didn't have that information.
00:39:14.418 --> 00:39:17.268
So the who, what, why, and vibe.
00:39:17.518 --> 00:39:19.538
And I'm gonna go through this, and we'll go back, okay?
00:39:19.538 --> 00:39:22.108
I just want you to see the full picture, and then we'll go back.
00:39:23.588 --> 00:39:24.717
So who is this for?
00:39:24.898 --> 00:39:26.487
What, what does it need to do?
00:39:26.807 --> 00:39:28.148
Don't list 10 things.
00:39:28.427 --> 00:39:32.057
List two to three, you know, features, what you want it to do.
00:39:32.347 --> 00:39:33.128
What's the goal?
00:39:33.918 --> 00:39:36.617
And try not to have too many goals, right?
00:39:36.617 --> 00:39:39.257
Because it's the paradox of options.
00:39:39.268 --> 00:39:44.538
When people go into that site, if there's 10 things that you want them to do, they'll come out.
00:39:44.568 --> 00:39:49.447
It's just like having too big of a menu, and you're like,"I don't know what to order." It's the paradox of options.
00:39:49.458 --> 00:39:52.628
You wanna be clear on the next step that you want them to do.
00:39:52.878 --> 00:39:53.728
And then vibe.
00:39:53.978 --> 00:39:55.518
How do you want people to feel?
00:39:55.527 --> 00:39:56.797
What type of colors?
00:39:57.277 --> 00:39:58.237
You know, how...
00:39:58.248 --> 00:40:03.487
When they see it, how do you want them to perceive it, right?
00:40:03.487 --> 00:40:04.827
So that's the vibe.
00:40:05.077 --> 00:40:08.918
When you build, there's something called vague versus specific prompting.
00:40:09.168 --> 00:40:17.858
Vague is what I said,"I want to build a wellness app." Prompting is we will put the prompt, and I'll have an example here of the who, what, where, why vibe.
00:40:18.108 --> 00:40:27.458
I'll go through Lovable integrations,'cause that's one of the best things about Lovable is that it already has integrations with many other platforms so that you can seamlessly do it.
00:40:27.588 --> 00:40:33.467
When they first launched, you had to get the API keys, but now you just- it's like a one click.
00:40:33.717 --> 00:40:34.507
It's amazing.
00:40:34.757 --> 00:40:38.487
And I'll show some examples of a few of the most popular integrations.
00:40:38.737 --> 00:40:45.358
When you're actually-- When you put the prompt in and you're building it, and you wanna have a change, don't give it ten things to do.
00:40:45.608 --> 00:40:48.748
One by one, or at least number it, one, two, three.
00:40:48.757 --> 00:40:51.358
Because when you give it too much, it's...
00:40:51.648 --> 00:41:03.148
I mean, when you think of when you're giving three things to do at the same time, you're like,"I don't know what to do first," it's not gonna be as great as you want, and then you'll be prompting more and using more credits to, like, change it.
00:41:03.237 --> 00:41:04.777
So one at a time.
00:41:05.027 --> 00:41:09.327
You wanna be direct and clear, and again, I will be giving examples for all of these.
00:41:09.577 --> 00:41:12.827
And as I mentioned, working, not perfection.
00:41:13.097 --> 00:41:13.597
All right?
00:41:14.768 --> 00:41:20.858
My hope is for the end of all this, everyone will ship something and hit Publish, okay, by the end of the night.
00:41:21.108 --> 00:41:22.708
And it actually won't take as long as you think.
00:41:22.717 --> 00:41:24.958
Usually, you're the one holding yourself back.
00:41:25.208 --> 00:41:26.827
And then when in doubt, just ask.
00:41:26.847 --> 00:41:32.927
You can ask Claude, uh, for clarity, ask the questions um, and tonight you can ask me.
00:41:32.958 --> 00:41:35.768
I'll be here walking around um, to answer any questions.
00:41:36.018 --> 00:41:43.927
So this is an example, vague versus specific: Here's a prompting playbook, and again, I will go back to this when we get into the part.
00:41:44.177 --> 00:41:45.577
These are the integrations.
00:41:45.827 --> 00:41:54.018
Uh, Supabase you must have'cause that's if you do collect like user base, uh, you need somewhere to filter it safely, like put all the information.
00:41:54.018 --> 00:41:57.648
So for example, even if you did a quiz, people are going to put their name and email.
00:41:57.898 --> 00:42:01.807
Lovable doesn't store it, Supabase does, and so this is always necessary.
00:42:01.818 --> 00:42:03.927
And it's already built in.
00:42:04.268 --> 00:42:07.327
Uh, so when you have the pro plan, it has the free version.
00:42:07.577 --> 00:42:12.827
When you make something a lot more robust, you have to pay for Supabase, but it comes with a free plan.
00:42:13.827 --> 00:42:18.338
Stripe, if you're going to start charging for something, they have an integration with Stripe.
00:42:18.588 --> 00:42:19.887
OpenAI for chatbots.
00:42:19.918 --> 00:42:29.068
I actually also use ElevenLabs for, um, our somatic guide has been RAG trained through ElevenLabs, and when I first started, I had to do the whole API keys, all this thing.
00:42:29.068 --> 00:42:31.188
Now it's just a click of a button and it connects.
00:42:31.438 --> 00:42:31.768
Yeah.
00:42:32.164 --> 00:42:34.355
Ship, the last thing, is polishing.
00:42:34.655 --> 00:42:39.295
Run the security check, which Lovable will prompt you to do, and hit Publish.
00:42:39.469 --> 00:42:43.829
And at the end, we will showcase it up in front so we can celebrate you.
00:42:43.969 --> 00:42:44.719
And don't be shy.
00:42:44.730 --> 00:42:46.929
We would love to see your products.
00:42:47.000 --> 00:42:47.409
All right?
00:42:47.550 --> 00:42:49.199
So who is ready to build?
00:42:50.079 --> 00:42:50.090
Whoo.
00:42:50.099 --> 00:42:50.570
Yes.
00:42:50.929 --> 00:42:51.619
All right.
00:42:51.960 --> 00:42:52.300
Okay.
00:42:52.965 --> 00:42:56.445
