    AI skills are no longer optional—but learning them doesn’t require a technical background or months of tutorials.

    In this live session, Albert’s List teams up with Scott Simson, founder of AI Marketing World, to show how professionals are using vibe coding to build real AI projects, develop in-demand skills, and ship usable MVPs—fast.
    This is a practical, beginner-friendly walkthrough, not a theory talk.

    ### What You’ll Learn

    • The top AI tools to focus on in 2026 (and which ones to ignore)
    • What “vibe coding” actually means—and why it works for non-technical builders
    • How to identify high-leverage software niches where simple AI products win
    • How to build AI workflows and apps with zero prior coding experience
    • How to go from idea → prototype → MVP in days, not months
    • What to do after you build: validation, iteration, and next steps
    • How these skills translate into career leverage, consulting, or side projects

    ### Who This Event Is For

    • Job seekers looking to future-proof their skills
    • Marketers, operators, and product-adjacent professionals
    • Non-technical builders who want to ship real AI projects
    • Anyone curious about AI but overwhelmed by the technical barrier

    The job market has never been more uncertain. Layoffs, reorganizations, and a looming recession mean you can no longer rely solely on traditional employment for your livelihood. Moreover, artificial intelligence (AI) has arrived and threatens many traditional roles, including marketing, finance/accounting, law, operations, HR, and recruiting.

    It's long been known in entrepreneurial circles that having your own business is the path to freedom from economic uncertainty. While the arrival of the internet birthed many new ventures, the arrival of AI has created new freedom, allowing you to start your own business in as little as a weekend.

    If you're looking to start a new side hustle and want to set the foundation to breaking out on your own, this webinar can help you understand how combining your expertise with traditional business approaches and infusing AI can get you to revenue faster than ever, all with lower operating costs.

    You'll learn:

    1. Why Side Hustles are the Key to Future-Proofing Your Career: Gain valuable entrepreneurial skills while hedging against economic uncertainty.
    2. How AI Provides the Launchpad for Your Business: See how AI tools can accelerate everything from branding and marketing to automation and networking.
    3. The Quickest Path from Expertise to Revenue: Leverage what you already know to provide valuable services and products in demand.
    4. Real-World Examples of Expertise-Driven Businesses: Get inspired by success stories across industries.
    5. And much, much more!

    Learn how you can stand out in an interview in a world of AI chatbots, robots, and agents.
    AI can optimize your resume, tailor applications, and generate near-perfect answers to interview questions. But if everyone is using it no one stands out.

    Hiring managers aren’t looking for a perfect candidate; they're looking for a real person. Someone they want to work with. Someone they trust. Someone who is genuine. These qualities come through in interviews.

    Join Callings.ai Senior Talent Advisor Laura Wigglesworth and returning guest Albert Qian for a practical, no-nonsense session on how to use AI to prepare for interviews but be authentic in the interview. In this webinar, we'll show you how to

    Build a core set of stories you can adapt during an interview

    • Avoid the most common “AI tells” that turn hiring managers off
    • Show your thinking, not just your answers; and
    • Turn interviews into real conversations—not performances

    If your answers feel over-rehearsed, forgettable, or just not landing, this session will help you reconnect with what actually gets people hired.

    Feeling mentally drained, stiff from sitting all day, or struggling to stay focused?
    If you spend long hours at a desk, your body and brain are likely operating under constant low-level stress — even if you don’t notice it.

    Most people try to solve this by pushing harder or taking breaks that don’t actually reset anything.

    In this 60-minute guided experience on zoom, we’ll combine gentle chair mobility, stretching, and Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT tapping) to help you get stronger, release tension, and gain more energy.This session is designed to do what your usual breaks don’t: fully reset your system so you can perform better.
    What You’ll Gain in 60 Minutes
    Most participants feel a noticeable shift immediately after the session.
    Reduce mental fatigue and improve clarity
    Release tension from sitting (neck, shoulders, lower back, hips)
    Improve circulation, posture, and energy levels
    Calm your stress response so you can focus more effectively

    ***Wear comfortable clothes to participate in this experience. This is a whole body training session. You may keep your camera on, or turn it off for your comfort level. Keeping your camera on allows Coach Ai to provide you feedback on your form and technique.

    How It Works
    This is a structured, guided session combining two proven approaches:

    1. Chair Mobility & Targeted Stretching (All Levels Invited)
      Designed specifically for people who sit for long periods.
      You’ll systematically release tension in the areas most impacted by desk work:
      Effective movement that restores function.
      Neck & shoulders (screen fatigue)
      Spine & posture (slouching, compression)
      Hips & lower back (prolonged sitting)
    2. Guided Stress Reduction (EFT Tapping)
      A simple, structured technique used to help regulate your stress response.
      This helps:
      You’ll be guided step-by-step — no prior experience needed.
      Reduce mental overload
      Interrupt anxious thought loops
      Bring your system back to a calmer, more focused state

    Why This Is Worth Your Time
    If you’ve been:
    Then your system likely needs a reset — not more effort.
    This session helps you recover faster so you can perform better.
    Even a small improvement in focus and energy can translate into:
    Sitting 6–10+ hours a day
    Feeling tight, tired, or mentally overloaded
    Struggling with focus, motivation, or energy

    More productive work sessions
    Better decision-making
    Less burnout over time

    A Small Investment, Immediate Return
    You’ll get:

    If this helps you regain even 1–2 hours of focused energy, it more than pays for itself.
    A full-body tension release
    A mental reset
    Simple tools you can reuse daily

    Don’t Wait Until Burnout Slows You Down
    Most people wait until they’re exhausted to take action.
    This session is designed to help you reset early, so you can stay consistent, clear, and productive — without running yourself into the ground.
