Tomorrow is more than a book launch. It’s a moment someone will remember for the rest of their life—because of who showed up. We have a young woman stepping forward in courage, clarity, and conviction. She’s releasing her work into the world, and what happens next won’t be determined by algorithms alone. It will be shaped by community, presence, and people who choose to help. This is your opportunity to do something meaningful for someone else. Not to promote yourself.Not to posture.Not to extract attention. But to invest in a person. Tomorrow, Nia Simmons is launching her book, A.M.P.L.I.F.Y.™, a practical, grounded guide for independent artists who want visibility without burnout—using AI responsibly, clearly, and ethically. This book was written for artists who are tired of noise.For creators who want systems, not stress.For people who want momentum without losing their voice. And tomorrow, she takes the step every creator remembers forever:launch day. How You Can Help (It’s Simple) We’re hosting four very brief sessions tomorrow on Skool. Each one is about five minutes.

Most conversations about AI focus on what the technology can do. Far fewer address what the law will not allow—even when the technology makes it easy. This is public legal education. Not legal advice. But it reflects settled principles that creators, agencies, and institutions need to understand now. The Core Legal Risk: Right of Publicity Creating AI-generated videos that depict real people’s likenesses—actors, athletes, public figures, or private individuals—without permission creates immediate legal exposure. In more than 30 U.S. states, the Right of Publicity protects against the unauthorized commercial use of a person’s name, image, voice, or likeness. Key points many people miss: - Saying “this is AI” does not eliminate liability - Disclosure is not a defense when content is commercially exploited - Stylized, fictional, or “creative” depictions can still violate the law AI capability does not create a legal exception. Liability Rarely Stops at One Claim Unauthorized AI depictions often trigger stacked legal exposure, including: - False endorsement under federal trademark law - Defamation, where content implies false conduct or beliefs - Emotional distress, particularly when viewers are misled These claims compound. They do not cancel one another out. Without Permission: High Exposure When AI content uses real people or recognizable characters without authorization, risk expands across multiple legal regimes: Copyright Training on or outputting recognizable copyrighted images, performances, or scenes—especially for commercial use—rarely qualifies as fair use. Trademark Depicting branded characters or universes can imply endorsement, triggering infringement or dilution claims. State Right of Publicity Laws Jurisdictions such as California, New York, and Tennessee allow statutory damages, injunctions, profit disgorgement, and post-mortem rights that extend decades after death. Emerging Federal Law Proposed legislation would create nationwide civil liability for unauthorized digital replicas.

Let’s talk book coaching for a moment. Have you created your launch team yet? Here’s the truth most new authors miss: Books don’t sell because they’re good. They sell because they’re organized. A launch team is simply a small group of people with clear roles, all focused on one goal—moving books on launch day. Here’s how to build one that works: 1️⃣ Start with family Not to critique the book—but to support the mission. They buy early, leave reviews, and share because they believe in you. 2️⃣ Add friends Give them one simple job: Buy on launch day. Share once. Leave an honest review. 3️⃣ Activate followers Your audience already trusts you. Invite them behind the scenes. People support what they feel connected to. 4️⃣ Yes—even your foes Some people watch just to see if you’ll win. Let them watch you sell books. The math is simple: • 10 people buying 5 copies = 50 books • 25 people buying 4 copies = 100 books • 50 people buying 10 copies = 500 books No tricks. No hype. Just clarity, coordination, and leadership. Authors don’t need bigger platforms. They need better launch plans. If you’re writing—or already holding—a book, the question isn’t can it sell… The question is: Who’s on your launch team?

Clarity, ownership, and positioning will matter more than ever. Here is what I am already preparing clients and communities for. As we approach 2026, I have been reflecting on what is changing—and what is quietly becoming non-negotiable for professionals, creators, and business owners who want to operate with confidence and longevity. This is not a list of predictions for attention.It is a summary of what I am already seeing across my desk. Below are ten shifts I believe serious professionals should expect more of in 2026—and prepare for now. 1. More IP Disputes Involving AI-Created and AI-Assisted Work Principle: Creation does not automatically equal ownership. What’s Changing: AI tools, platforms, and collaborators are increasingly part of the creative process, and the legal lines matter more than people realize. Why It Matters: Many will discover too late that “I made it” does not mean “I own it.” Action: Clarify ownership before publishing, launching, or scaling anything AI-assisted. 2. More Creators and Businesses Losing Control of Their Brands Principle: Names and systems are assets only if they are protected. What’s Changing: Brands built on programs, frameworks, courses, and books are being challenged, copied, or diluted. Why It Matters: 2026 will clearly separate those who protected early from those who assumed. Action: Audit what you are using publicly and confirm what is actually secured. 3. More Lawsuits, Fewer Warnings Principle: The education phase is ending. What’s Changing: Enforcement is increasing, and informal grace periods are disappearing. Why It Matters: Mistakes that once triggered guidance now trigger consequences. Action: Move from casual compliance to intentional structure. Want the other 7? Let me know in the comments...
