episode The Truth About Online Communities No One Talks About artwork

The Truth About Online Communities No One Talks About

In this episode of Tech + Tequila, Kat Lopez Shelby unpacks a truth many business owners overlook: community is not a platform, it’s a verb. If you’ve been weighing Circle, Skool, Kajabi, Mighty Networks, MemberUp, or Slack, this conversation goes beyond a simple software comparison and gets to the heart of what truly creates connection, engagement, and belonging in an online space. Kat shares how to choose the right platform based on the kind of experience you want to create, the behavior you want to encourage, and the leadership real community requires. She also explores what actually makes people stay, participate, and feel supported once they join. And of course, she wraps the episode with a fun Tech + Tasting moment featuring Moment Strawberry Rose Barbie Edition. This episode was inspired by the incredible Latinas in Podcasting community.

AI for Small Business: What’s Actually Worth It (and What’s Just Hype)

Everybody is talking about AI, but not everything labeled “AI” is actually helping your business grow. In this solo episode of Tech + Tequila, Kat Lopez Shelby breaks down what AI is truly worth using right now for small business owners, where it can save time, where it still needs human oversight, and how it can support customer service, marketing workflows, and internal operations. She also shares the biggest mistakes to avoid before adopting AI tools, so you can make smarter, more strategic technology decisions for your business without getting distracted by hype. And of course, it wouldn’t be Tech + Tequila without a little sabor at the end  this week’s tequila segment features Pocho Fino Mexican Candy, a bold, nostalgic flavor moment that brings a little sweet, a little spice, and a whole lot of fun to close out the conversation. Three things to think about, one tequila to vibe with… because around here, we don’t just talk tech, we experience it.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
