My work focuses on making pregnancy, birth and early postpartum more respectful and empowering for pregnant people and their partners. I teach prenatal classes, attend births as a doula, and train other birth professionals - mostly birth & postpartum doulas. I do a lot of geeky research and turn it into easily understood information as I'm bilingual: speaking medical science and everyday language.

Consider getting ChatGPT Plus

In this course, we’ll be using ChatGPT a lot. Try logging in there and see if it’s overloaded – the free version often is, due to how popular it is. If you want more reliable access, sign up for ChatGPT Plus ($20/month). How? Once you log into ChatGPT you’ll see a place to upgrade if you wish. Also, it gives you advanced features such as GPT-4 (just released on March 14) which is the next generation of ChatGPT that can take even more text input and has better "reasoning" and creative abilities.

Hey @George Kao!  Thanks for these links. I am still having bad luck with ChatGPT so am not signed up for it yet. 

1) It did not work on my Safari web browser. I do not like using Chrome but resort to it on rare occasions something doesn't work the way it should. 

2) They are still not letting me sign up for even a free account without confirming a working cell phone number to verify my account which I am not willing to give them (whoever them is). They will accept my Google voice number nor a landline. Only a mobile phone number. 

So for now I am not able to access it and hope you might share another of your favorite technologies like this out there.

@Antonio Aversano sorry to hear about that!  They've been so slammed with hundreds of thousands of fake accounts, that they had to reinforce security by requiring mobile phone number.  Can you instead try www.Poe.com to use ChatGPT that way?  I think Poe accepts signing in with Google Account only, not necessarily phone number... 

Also maybe try https://web.skype.com for a taste of Bing Chat.

Thanks@George Kao!  I like the Poe.com portal. It looks like it gives access to several of the main AI interfaces. Is there a catch? Maybe in functionality/ Or is this a cool work around from having to sign up for all of them?  

In case anyone is interested, this is my first experience with ChatGPT. I basically went down the deep dive rabbit hole in challenging the existence of AI and asking about oversight and the ethical concerns with AI as well as its limitations. Was kind of fun and a little scary at the same time!  Here is the link to my chat. Hoping the links the chat provided work. There is a lot that you can read about AI development, concerns, and oversight right now. https://poe.com/s/qqFnH7XyUTTBHLqAnTqT

@Antonio Aversano yep!  Poe.com tries to be an aggregator of these chatbots, so you can use all of them there, with some limitations, but not much.

Thanks @George Kao!  Great resource!

@Antonio Aversano I feel your pain was was royally pissed I had to provide a real cell # to sign up.  

As you get more attention, be more aware of your cybersecurity 5:16
As you get more attention, be more aware of your cybersecurity... (use 2FA)

Click the following links, one by one, and follow the instructions to enable 2-factor authentication on these important websites (assuming you use those websites regularly)...  Google FB Instagram LinkedIn Paypal Stripe (scroll down to Two-step authentication) Any other payment methods you use


AE

@George Kao - the instructions for PayPal no longer work and I can't find anything through PayPal. any chance you have some kind of extra info on that? It doesn't even have a link for 2-SA and their help box doesn't recognize it either.

@Angie Evans I'm seeing it under Profile Settings > Login and security > 2-step verification.  See if that helps?

MS

@George Kao I have 2 factor set up for everything but Paypal, I'm realizing, so thank you for speaking to this! Looks like Paypal gives limited options and I'm needing to set up through the  google authenticator app. A bit nervous about what might happen if I lose my phone, do you have any suggestions on ways to set things up in case I lose my phone? 
GK
George Kao Ⓜ️ MasterHeart 🔤 ABC

@megan spencer you're right that you'd have to really trust not to lose your phone by using a mobile app like Google Authenticator.  Less secure but still better than no 2FA is to use SMS or email based authentication... usually an option that they give you. 

Alternatively you would need to use a service like https://authy.com/features/...

...which allows you to have authentication via multiple devices.

AE

@George Kao - Do you have a resource to set up Google Authenticator on a Google account. I'd prefer that to getting a text.  Thanks.

GK
George Kao Ⓜ️ MasterHeart 🔤 ABC

@Angie Evans Yes, go to your mobile phone app store and search Google Authenticator.  It should be the one that has 100 Million downloads (skip the ones that merely have 1 million downloads!)

How I dislike and like taking questions from you 5:59
Ways I dislike -- and ways I like -- for you to ask me questions 😅

Thank you for engaging with my courses!   I truly am grateful to be able to support you, my students and clients, in growing your authentic business. It’s what I love doing the most. 🤗 At the same time, since I'm (mostly) a solopreneur, I also need to keep healthy boundaries with those I'm supporting... so I hope you will keep these in mind...  Ways I dislike getting questions: Social media private messaging -- whether it's FB messaging, IG dm's, Twitter, LinkedIn etc... I really dislike getting questions through those channels because it's hard to organize messages in those places.  Kindly refrain from asking me questions via social media direct messages. Email -- I don't mind getting questions via email if it's enrollment-related: something you need to clarify before signing up for my courses or programs. If it's questions related to the content of my courses, e.g. concepts, exercises, feedback requests etc, please use one of the following methods... Ways I love to receive your questions: Q&A calls -- this is my favorite way to engage with you and take your questions!  There, you can ask me anything 🤗 Even if you’re not clear about your question, coming to the call will likely give you inspiration and ideas! You can then ask me about specific concepts, or how to apply them to your business. We can troubleshoot what's not working, or address specific challenges you're having. You can also seek my feedback about anything including your strategy, website, content, offers, or anything else. Click here: George Kao Q&A Calls. Comments under Lessons -- if you can't come to my Q&A calls or would love to get an answer sooner, find the course (George Kao Courses) related to the topic of your question. Go there, find the related lesson, and then comment underneath. This keeps the Q&A focused on a specific topic. I'll do my best to respond to your question within a few days. Members of ABC/MasterHeart -- I'd love for you to post your questions in our private forum, so that you can receive responses from other members. Your questions will also help me prepare for the next ABC Q&A calls. Even if you can't post your questions, you can still come to the Q&A calls and ask directly. Thank you for understanding! 🙏🏼 As business owners / service providers we each need to find a way to keep healthy boundaries in our work! I hope this page/video gives you some ideas for how to maintain a good relationship with your own audience as well. 😊 New as of 2025 -- before you ask me anything, consider asking my Ai chatbot! Whatever course you have access to, my Ai is also trained on that course material, and can coach you step bys tep about the course material. Click here to see how that works


AE

Do we have to sign up before attending a Q&A call or is there a link where we can just attend, like when we're in a 9month course?

GK
George Kao Ⓜ️ MasterHeart 🔤 ABC

@Angie Evans great to see you here 🤗 and yes, the monthly Q&A call does require signing up each time, but hopefully if your info is stored in AcuityScheduling it'll be a few easy clicks.  Sign up here: https://www.georgekao.com/qa

GK Affil Program Orientation 2022 August 6:52
Affil Orientation -- How to turn ANY link into your affiliate link :)

The only limitation is you cannot create an affiliate link for a social media post and post it to that same platform. For example, you cannot create an affil link for a Facebook post and share it on Facebook itself (because FB will remove the affiliating) however you can share that affiliate link via any other platform or via email, and it will track properly. Get your affiliate links here If interested in that Twitter thread mentioned in the video, click here.

So easy!!! Wish I'd checked this out ages ago. Thanks for the excellent description and for finding such user-friendly systems for us.
