SUBSCRIBE HEREAI can feel overwhelming when you’re running a small business, yet it also offers a chance to simplify work and open new possibilities. In this episode, Lindsay Pinchuk is joined by Dr. Nici Sweaney, the founder of AI Her Way, to talk about how entrepreneurs can bring AI into their businesses in a way that feels intentional and aligned with their values. Nici shares the turning point that led her from academia to building a seven-figure company around AI and why she believes women need to engage with it now to stay competitive. She explains how to think of AI as a “blank slate intern” that can be trained to support your goals, why ethical use matters, and how keeping human values at the center ensures these tools work for you rather than the other way around.This conversation invites listeners to see AI not as a shortcut, but as a responsibility and an opportunity to shape the future of work in ways that are inclusive and sustainable. It also asks us to consider both the immediate benefits and the bigger picture: AI is here to stay, and the way we choose to use it now will influence the kind of businesses, communities, and opportunities we create in the years ahead.Episode Breakdown:00:00 AI for Small Business Success with Dr. Nici Sweaney,01:57 From Academia to AI Entrepreneurship06:55 What AI Her Way Offers to Businesses08:52 Understanding AI vs Generative AI13:19 Training AI Like a Blank Slate Intern18:24 Practical Ways Entrepreneurs Can Use AI22:43 Why Claude Is Dr. Sweeney’s Favorite AI Tool26:06 Best Practices for Using AI Confidently30:25 What Ethical AI Really Means35:12 Inside the AI for Impact Hub38:15 Building a Seven-Figure Business with AI41:35 Three Essential Tips for New Founders44:49 Use AI EthicallyConnect with Dr. Nici Sweaney:Access a free 14-day trial of Dr. Nici Sweeney’s Gen AI Essentials course: https://pages.aiherway.com.au/14-day-gen-ai-dear-foundherDr. Nici’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ai_herway/Get on the waitlist for Marketing Made Simple for Small Business: https://lindsaypinchuk.myflodesk.com/waitlistFollow Dear FoundHer on Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/dearfoundherPodcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm Hosted on Acast.
