In this episode, I want to do a dive into what you should know
before buying a book on anxiety support or treatment. Depending on
how and where you get that book, there could be a certain amount of
misrepresentation.
The topics in this episode include Private Label Release/White
Label books, personal narratives and self-help/support and
workbooks. One of my goals for 2025 is find current books that help
specific populations.
The music for this week's show is from Logan at www.musicformakers.com. I mispronounced the name of
the website and had to take it out.
Wee bit of housekeeping.
I am a real person. This is a 95% human generated podcast. I
do use search engines. Many of them now have embed AI features. I
write my own scripts and use an image editor that to my knowledge,
doesn't use AI (yet). I use a company called Auphonic that does
have AI sound cleaning features.
Long time listeners know I need all the help I can get in
regard to sound quality.
I need to say all of that because there is now technology that
an AI generated audio show hosted by two non-human AI voices. That
podcast can be created and uploaded in about 20ish
minutes.
There are humans that subscribe to that service. Mainly for
income generation. More podcasts, more access to advertiser
money.
For those of you new here, I do not accept ads, affiliate
deals or influencer perks. I don’t do interviews for free or for
profit. Not saying I’ll never do it but I haven’t in 8 years so
yeah, that is a thing.
