    AI: Humanity's Greatest Tool or Biggest Idol? (My Scarcity Wake-Up Call)

    AI is not inherently dangerous. But it can become dangerous—if we surrender our agency to it.In this episode, I share my perspective on whether AI will become the greatest tool humanity has ever created… or the greatest idol we’ve ever worshipped.The difference has nothing to do with AI itself. It has everything to do with how we think—and how we choose to use it.You’ll learn:• Why belief alone can create economic bubbles (and why they always burst)• The two cycles that shape every life: abundance and scarcity• How AI amplifies whichever mindset you bring to it• The critical difference between a tool and an idol• Why agency—not technology—determines your futureAI can produce output. But only humans create value.Value requires judgment. Creativity. Usefulness. Beauty. Agency.And in the age of AI, preserving your agency may be the most important decision you ever make.If you want help making clearer, faster decisions, I created a free tool for you:Download the One-Minute Decision Filter:https://aprilbragg.com/decideYour time is your greatest asset. Use it wisely.—My name is April Bragg, and I help women become Time-Rich—not by doing more, but by becoming clear on what matters most.⸻CHAPTERS00:00 AI: Idol or Tool?00:28 The Second Grade Gold Economy02:34 The Two Paths That Shape Your Future03:00 The Secret of Abundance04:43 How Scarcity Becomes Permanent07:30 When Protection Replaces Creation08:36 The Hidden Danger of Powerful Tools09:35 The Difference Between a Tool and an Idol14:10 How Fear Turns Tools into Idols17:00 How Abundance Thinking Changes Your Life21:00 The Final Question: Idol or Tool?22:30 Free Decision Tool—#AI #ArtificialIntelligence #AbundanceMindset #PersonalGrowth #DecisionMaking #TimeRich #ScarcityVsAbundance

    The Oxygen Mask Myth (The Leadership Shift No One Talks About)

    Hell vs God’s Love — How to Read the Bible Through Faith, Not Fear

    How could a loving God send people to hell?For many, this isn’t just a theological question — it’s the stumbling block to belief itself. It’s the quiet tension between trust and fear, between faith and “fire insurance.”In this video, I’m not trying to tell you what to believe.Instead, I’m offering a different framework for approaching Scripture — one that starts not with conclusions, but with posture.We’ll explore: • Why the question you ask shapes the doctrine you find • Three common interpretations of “hell” found in Christian theology • How fear and faith function as two very different lenses • And why Jesus spoke more about life, love, and trust than about hell itselfThis isn’t a debate video.It’s an invitation to return to Scripture with fresh eyes — not asking “What will happen in the end?” but:“What does God desire to reveal to me?”Because the story we believe about God shapes everything we see in the Bible… and everything we become.CHAPTERS/TIMESTAMPS00:00 Introduction: The Question of Questions00:56 The Stumbling Block: A Loving God and Hell02:34 Approaching Scripture: Fear vs. Faith05:23 Three Views on Hell09:38 Personal Reflections and Invitation15:55 Conclusion: Eyes of FaithBook mentioned: The Fire That Consumes by Edward Fudge (thoughtful resource that deepened my study—no affiliation).If this meets you where you are, let me know in the comments—what lens (fear or faith) have you been reading through lately?

    Everyone Needs a Piece of Me (3 Differences between the TimePoor vs TimeRich Woman)

    Everyone needs a piece of me.If you’re a highly capable woman, that sentence probably feels familiar—and exhausting.When people rely on you, saying yes can slowly shift from being helpful to feeling like responsibility. Over time, urgency crowds out your values, your future vision, and the work you feel most called to do.This podcast is about how to stop saying yes out of pressure, how to make values-based decisions, and how highly capable women move from being overcommitted and time-poor to becoming TimeRich women who lead with clarity and peace.In this conversation, I walk through the difference between TimePoor women and TimeRich women—not in how much they care, but in how they decide. I share three key contrasts that change everything: • Saying yes from values and future vision, not urgency • Understanding why a wise no is sometimes more powerful than always saying yes • Learning when the highest-leverage yes is sharing wisdom instead of laborThis podcast is for the woman who is tired of constant effort and ready to live, love, and lead by example—without guilt.CHAPTERS/TIMESTAMPS00:00 Introduction: Feeling Overwhelmed?00:22 The Trap of Saying Yes01:05 Time Rich vs. Time Poor: Key Differences02:21 Difference #1: Urgency vs. Alignment04:41 Difference #2: The Power of No07:08 Difference #3: Sharing Wisdom Over Labor07:51 Personal Story: Stepping Back12:27 Final Thoughts and Tools for Decision MakingThe Core ReframeThe TimePoor woman keeps living as though everyone needs a piece of her.The TimeRich woman understands something very different:Everyone doesn’t need a piece of me.Everyone needs my peace.From that place, she learns how to live, love, and lead by example—rather than through constant effort.⸻🧭 Want help deciding when to say yes or no?I created a simple tool called the One-Minute Decision Filter—three powerful questions to help you say yes from peace instead of pressure.👉 Download it here: https://aprilbragg.com/decideIf this podcast helped you, consider subscribing.I’m April Bragg, the TimeRich Woman Coach.
