#101 What Emily Built During Maternity Leave

What started as watching AI videos during late-night feeds became a complete overhaul of the Successful Speechie Academy.In this solo episode of the Move.Talk.Thrive Podcast, Emily shares how following her curiosity during maternity leave led her to rethink the way she organised and presented her preschool language resources. With existing systems, support from her team and a few focused work blocks each week, she explains how AI helped her bring the rebuild together in around three months.But her biggest takeaway goes beyond AI: confidence grows when you put what you learn into practice.From testing ideas before introducing them to a team to working through the messy middle of learning something new, this episode explores implementation, leadership and why your next step might be another repetition, not another course.Resources MentionedSuccessful Speechie Academy: Explore Emily’s preschool language resources and training through www.successfulspeechieacademy.comFree preschool language training: www.successfulspeechieacademy.com/freeStay Connected with Move.Talk.ThriveWhat’s one thing you’ve learned recently that you’re ready to put into practice?Share this episode with an allied health professional, business owner or colleague who’s learning something new and finding themselves in the messy middle.Follow us on Instagram: @movetalkthriveWatch on YouTube: Move.Talk.ThriveConnect With UsLizzy DawsonWebsite: www.lizzydawson.com.auInstagram: @lizzydawson_Emily MackieWebsite: www.emilymackie.com.auInstagram: @emilymackie.speechie
