Are you spending more time trying to figure out how to use AI than actually getting things done?

Here’s a tip I loved from my conversation with local AI consultant Megan Christie!

Instead of searching for the perfect AI prompt or copying what someone else is doing, start by telling AI what you’re trying to accomplish. Let it ask you questions, learn about your business or your goals, and help you figure out the steps to get there.

Whether you’re running a small business, managing a busy household, or just trying to get a few hours back in your week, AI can be a really helpful tool when you know how to work with it!

And here’s where I think AI connects to wellness. If we can use technology to take a few things off our plates, reduce some of our mental load, and free up time for the people and activities we love, that’s a win for our overall well-being!

If you’re using AI, here’s one thing you might want to check! 👀

In Episode 66 of The Erie Wellness Podcast, local AI consultant Megan Christie shares one of her biggest tips for anyone using AI: check your privacy settings!

As AI becomes more a part of our everyday lives, I think it’s important that we’re educated consumers.

That means understanding what information we’re sharing, how it’s being used, and how to protect our personal information from being exposed or used in ways we might not want.

And here’s something helpful! Megan has a FREE download on her website that walks you through how to turn off data collection for AI training on supported platforms.

Digital wellness is something we’re all learning to navigate, and I love that there are simple things we can do to be more intentional with technology!

Does anyone else feel like there are never enough hours in the day to get everything done?

Here’s something I’ve noticed. It doesn’t matter what season of life you’re in. Everyone is busy! Whether you’re raising kids, working, running a business, or enjoying retirement, our days have a way of filling up. And somehow, there’s always more to do than time to do it!

In our latest episode of the Erie Wellness Podcast, I sat down with Megan Christie to explore how AI might help us get some of that time back.

We talk about the pros and cons of AI (because there are definitely some important things to consider!), practical ways to use it in everyday life, and how Megan helps small business owners spend less time buried in behind-the-scenes work and more time doing what inspired them to start their businesses in the first place.

And Megan shares one of the best parts of AI: finding ways to use technology so we can spend less time on our screens and more time doing the things we love!

Whether you’re already using AI, just starting to explore it, or aren’t quite convinced it’s for you, I hope this conversation gives you a fresh perspective and a few new ideas!

In case we haven’t met yet, hi! I’m Lauren! ❤️👟

I’m a local wife and mom of three, have called Erie home for over a decade, and I’m the voice behind the Erie Wellness Podcast!

I’m passionate about living a healthy, balanced life. Not one filled with restrictions or perfection, but one that allows us to feel our best, enjoy the people we love, and keep doing the things that bring us joy for years to come.

I believe wellness is a lifelong journey, and there’s always something new to learn. It’s about so much more than physical health. Our relationships, mental and emotional well-being, sense of purpose, and the communities we surround ourselves with all matter.

That’s a big part of why I started the Erie Wellness Podcast. I wanted to create a space that brings our community together, highlights local businesses and wellness professionals doing meaningful work, and connects people with resources that can make a real difference in their lives.

My hope is that this podcast continues to grow into a community where we learn from each other, support local businesses, and inspire our friends, family, and neighbors to live healthier, happier, and more fulfilling lives.

Thanks for being here and being part of this little community we’re building together!

You’re tracking wake windows, watching for sleepy cues, adjusting naps… and somehow sleep is STILL a struggle. 😵‍💫

That’s exactly where local Erie parents, Amanda + Frank, found themselves with their baby—and ultimately what inspired them to create Frank and Amanda.

In our latest episode, we talk about the mental load of baby sleep, those constantly changing sleep patterns, and how their own experience turned into a tool designed to make this stage a little easier for other parents.

Baby sleep can take over your entire day. 😴 Tracking naps, calculating wake windows, adjusting bedtime—and somehow still wondering if you’re getting any of it right.

In our latest episode, I’m joined by local parents Frank + Amanda, the team behind Frank and Amanda, a baby sleep app inspired by their own experience navigating sleep with their son, Cedric.

We talk about the mental load of baby sleep, nap transitions, daytime vs. nighttime sleep, and how Ceddie Sleeps uses your baby’s actual sleep patterns to help make sense of what comes next.

It’s a great example of turning one local family’s challenge into something that can make those exhausting early months a little easier for other parents.

Parenting has a pregame 👏

Amanda Rodriguez says about 70% of boundary-setting should happen BEFORE we’re in the heat of the moment—setting expectations, talking things through, and helping our kids know what’s coming.

Because trying to set a boundary when everyone is already frustrated? 😅 We’ve all been there.

One of my biggest takeaways from my conversation with local parent coach Amanda Rodriguez from Amanda Rodriguez was her **pre-game, game time, and post-game** analogy for parenting. 👏

So often we’re trying to teach, correct, reason, or problem-solve right in the middle of the hard moment—the “game.”

But sometimes the most important parenting happens **before and after** those moments.

This was such a simple way to think about parenting, and one I’ve already found myself thinking about with my own kids.

Sharing this little takeaway from Episode 64 because I have a feeling I’m not the only parent who needed to hear it!
