Ever feel like you’re only scratching the surface with AI—using it to draft captions or emails—while sensing it could do so much more? In this episode of INHABIT with Alessia Citro, I sit down with AI strategist and business coach Callan Faulkner to unlock the secrets of powerful prompting. Callan introduces her Three Ps of Prompting—pain, problem, persona—and shows how this framework can turn everyday challenges into game-changing breakthroughs, whether you’re raising millions, navigating relationship conflict, or negotiating real estate deals.

Through vivid stories—from helping a private equity leader tackle a $40M fundraising sprint to rewriting the script on “working mom guilt”—Callan demonstrates how AI can become your limitless thought partner. You’ll learn how to craft prompts with role, context, request, and clarifying questions so that AI doesn’t just generate words but delivers strategic, personalized guidance. The episode is packed with practical examples, from storm damage insurance claims to executive compensation planning, making it one of the most tactical conversations on AI you’ll ever hear.

Whether you’re a busy entrepreneur, a corporate leader, or simply someone curious about how to use AI beyond surface-level tasks, this episode provides clarity, confidence, and creativity. Listen in to discover how better prompting can save time, spark ideas, and transform the way you work—and don’t miss Callan’s upcoming bootcamp for a deeper dive.
