"WTF you're parking in the bike lane!!?!?" I wanted to shout, but it dawned on me…

Gut reaction: "What an idiot parking in the bike lane!!!" 😤
During my workout recently, I saw a car parked in the bike lane 🚗
A very VERY very busy and popular bike lane
Where bikes go whizzing around by the minute 🚴‍♀️

BUT I had just recently listened 🎧 to "How to Make Friends and Influence People"
by Dale Carnegie Training
 (the audiobook for the 3rd time… 
because I get gold nuggets every time) 📚

Have you read it? 

Do you remember what the #1 principle is from that book?

1. Don't condemn 🚫

I took a breath, knew I might be late to my next meeting, 
but figured I'd try

So, I went over and asked, 
.............."Hey, do you need help?" 🤝

Now this person who looked like a Grandma could have done many things:

She could have yelled at me, 
flipped me the bird, 
not responded, or otherwise

But she looked scared, frazzled, and all on her own in this situation 😰

"I made a wrong turn and now I'm stuck!" she said
"I need to get out but there is a pole. I just don't know what to do!!" 🆘

And in that moment, what I realized 💡
She didn't need someone yelling "WTF" in her face
She didn't need someone condemning her for making a driving mistake

She NEEDED help backing out into a busy intersection
And how to do so SAFELY ⚠️

So that's what she and I did

PLAN: We constructed a plan
I diverted traffic of cars, bikes, and pedestrians
She backed her car out of the bike lane
Made the 3-point turn to go around the block 
and got onto the route she needed 🚦

During the process
Other people began yelling at me, "NOT IN THE BIKE LANE"
"Have you NOTICED you're parking in the bike lane!!!"
"What are you doing?!??!" 😡

"A mistake was made. WE'RE working on it" I responded
She was able to back the car out of the maze of poles and go on her way ✅
She profusely thanked me 🙏

The funny thing?
I doubt she works in AI
She probably couldn't care a rat's butt about AI
She needed someone to be HUMAN ❤️

She needed someone meet her where she was at… 
which was VERY STUCK in a bad situation

I honestly don't know how she could have gotten out alone 
without endangering others

If you ever need an empathetic helping hand 🤝
An expert to help you create a strategic roadmap
That works for you and your team, be sure to reach out

Our AI workshops have a wall of testimonials about being more productive with email, spreadsheets, research, and design work 📈

Best,
Joan

PS: Don't condemn. Give people the chance to accept the help they need. 🌟
PPS: Please goodness gracious don't park in the bike lane if possible, friend! 🚲
PPPS: I've checked that the photo is grainy enough not to identify this person or the license plate. Let's let this person have their anonymity. We all sometimes make mistakes and can accept support

A white SUV is parked in a green-painted bike lane on a city street, with its driver's side door open. A person in a light-colored sweater stands nearby on the sidewalk, appearing to assist or talk with the driver. The scene is surrounded by lush green trees and shows white street markings defining the bike lane boundaries

🤔 Is it a compliment or a ROAST to be invited as a speaker at the Unintelligence Conference? 😂 Either way… 

I’m IN! 🎤🚀

At this FREE conference tomorrow, I’ll be sharing the stage with some seriously smart (and humble?) minds to talk all things AI

My talk will be real talk on careers, money, resilience and opportunities
Title: "Future-Proof Your Career: Resilience and Opportunity in the Age of AI"

Tomorrow, I'll be speaking at 9:30am PDT

So, if you love bold ideas, questionable conference names, and the kind of brain fuel that makes you look twice — this is your event 🧠✨

It'll be a ball at The Artificial Unintelligence Conference 😅👏

⛰️☀️🥾🌲This Summer, I hiked the Dolomites. Sometimes I was grinding 4–10 miles a day in 80F weather. At times, there's a GNARLY section and I decided, ‘Let’s take the chairlift—for this section!' 🏔️🚠 What a metaphor...

When the trail gets tough, 
sometimes it's worth battling it out

But others...
having the right tools makes all the difference:

🎒 Backpack: Holds snacks, safety gear, extra layers—everything you need
🦯 Hiking Poles: Make rocky climbs and steep descents way more doable
💦 Water: Absolute necessity for those endless, sweaty miles
🧴 Sunscreen: Protection that keeps you going when the sun won’t quit
🧠 Mindset: Grit, curiosity and celebrating the milestones to keep moving 

This is how I hiked and enjoyed the butterflies and vistas
It's a gorgeous metaphor for the AI work I've been doing with businesses

🤖 Tools for AI, Workflows, and Business ROI Journeys

The climb in business and learning isn't so different—you need a solid toolkit:

🔍 Curiosity: Driving every question and new idea
🛠️ Prototyping: Willingness to test, fail, and improve
🧮 Calculating Value: Checking if your path is actually leading to results
🌄 Roadmaps: Stepping stones to progress, helping navigate the road

Whether you’re on the mountain or building something new, the right gear and mindset turns any gnarly section into your next win.

That's why my AI workshops are hugely popular with teams and leaders

We go on roads and journeys together...
And definitely some feel like the chairlift instead of the switchbacks!

How do you equip yourself and your team for the age of AI?

What has helped you on roadmaps and journeys that surprised you?

Joan wearing sunglasses and a blue long-sleeved shirt sits inside a gondola or cable car, smiling at the camera. Through the large windows behind her, there's a stunning view of snow-capped mountains, green forested hills, and another gondola visible on the cable line. The scene appears to be taken during a scenic mountain cable car ride on a clear, sunny day with blue skies and white clouds
