What if you could stop saying "I don't know how to do that"… and start saying "give me an hour"?

In this episode of Mums on Cloud Nine, Heather, Lynne and Kelly share how they use AI to make lifelong learning easier, faster, and genuinely enjoyable, even if you struggle with focus, motivation, or traditional online courses.

We cover:

• How AI gives you "sticky skills" you can add to your CV quickly

• Why learning isn't just about work, it's about confidence and momentum in life

• The moment AI stops feeling like homework and starts feeling like magic

• Why demos matter: you don't adopt tools until you see what they can really do

• ADHD learning styles: how to learn in a way that actually sticks

• The emotional rollercoaster of mastering new tech (and why it's normal)

This is a real, funny, practical conversation about staying relevant in a changing job market… and becoming the kind of person who can reinvent themselves whenever they need to.

If you've been stuck in "I'll start Monday" mode, this one's for you.
