Bring one recurring business problem you want to improve, and build a working AI teammate with Zero.
​Many founders and small business owners know AI could help, but do not know where to begin.
​In this small-group workshop, we will help you identify the bottleneck behind a real business task, decide whether AI is the right solution, and choose a practical first workflow.
​It could be finding leads, drafting follow-ups, preparing client updates, summarizing meetings, creating reports, organizing project information, updating tools, handling repetitive admin work, or supporting creative production.
​We will start with the problem, not the tool. Once we clarify the opportunity, we will show how Zero, an AI teammate, can help turn that workflow into a first working automation using the tools your team already relies on.
​You do not need a technical background. Bring your laptop and one real challenge.
​You will leave with:
<ul><li>​A clearer understanding of the problem</li><li>​A concrete first AI opportunity</li><li>​A practical next step for testing it</li></ul>
​Participants will receive complimentary Pro access to continue exploring their workflow after the session.

**League of Women Voters to Mark 60th Anniversary of the Voting Rights Act with Community Gathering at UC Berkeley**

BERKELEY, Calif. — The League of Women Voters of Berkeley, Albany &amp; Emeryville (LWVBAE), in partnership with the League of Women Voters of the United States, will host a community gathering on Saturday, August 8, 2026, from 4:00 to 7:00 PM at UC Berkeley’s E. Pauley Ballroom located at 2495 Bancroft Way Berkeley CA 94720 to commemorate the **60th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act of 1965**.

The event is one of several actions taking place in cities across the country, coordinated by the national League, to mark the historic legislation President Lyndon B. Johnson signed into law on August 6, 1965 — legislation widely regarded as the single most consequential step toward building an inclusive, multi-racial democracy in the United States.

The Berkeley gathering will feature live music, refreshments, speakers, and community voter engagement, offering attendees a chance to reflect on the ongoing struggle for voting rights and to connect with local democracy work.

"The Voting Rights Act didn't happen by accident — it happened because people organized, marched, and refused to accept a democracy that excluded them," said Kandea Mosley Gandhi, LWVBAE Co-President. "Sixty years later, we're gathering to honor that history and recommit to protecting the right to vote."

The public is invited to attend. More information and RSVP details are available at:
<a href="https://www.mobilize.us/lwv/event/971338/?referring_vol=4802432&amp;rname=sharon&amp;share_context=event-detail-page-modal-chained-invite&amp;share_medium=copy_link" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.mobilize.us/lwv/event/971338/?referring_vol=4802432&amp;rname=sharon&amp;share_context=event-detail-page-modal-chained-invite&amp;share_medium=copy_link</a>

**About LWVBAE:** The League of Women Voters of Berkeley, Albany &amp; Emeryville is a nonpartisan organization that encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues, and influences public policy through education and advocacy.

Personal Training with Unlimited DEXA and VO2 Max

Custom Fit

Most training programs run on guesswork. Custom Fit replaces it with measurement. At its San Francisco studios, Personal Training and Partner Training memberships include unlimited DEXA body-composition scans and VO2 max testing — diagnostics usually sold one scan at a time or reserved for specialized clinics. Custom Fit members can test as often as they train. The reasoning is straightforward. A DEXA scan measures fat, lean muscle, and bone density with clinical precision. A VO2 max test measures the body's maximum oxygen uptake, one of the strongest predictors of cardiovascular fitness and long-term health. Run those tests on a regular cadence and a member can see exactly what is changing, where, and whether a program is working — rather than relying on the scale or the mirror. That is the idea behind Custom Fit's positioning: not a gym, a performance lab. Every program is built from a member's measured body composition and cardiovascular capacity, then adjusted as the data moves. The goal is to eliminate the guesswork that defines most fitness routines and to treat training as something you can verify. The model also brings longevity diagnostics that usually live in concierge medicine into a routine training week. Body composition and cardiovascular capacity are central markers of how well a person is aging, and regular testing keeps those numbers visible rather than treating them as an occasional, expensive add-on. Custom Fit operates in Hayes Valley (323 Octavia Street), on Market Street (1844 Market), and with a Downtown San Francisco location on Battery Street (570 Battery) opening soon. Personal Training, Partner Training, and select memberships include the testing. More information is available at customfitsf.com.

Are there hidden accessibility barriers on your website?

Accessibility in Practice

Does your website look great but people still drop off before buying, booking, or signing up? Most small business owners don’t realize accessibility might be the reason. Your site might “pass” an automated scan or look fine visually, but still be impossible to use for people navigating by keyboard, screen reader, or other assistive tech. Automated tools don’t test whether someone can actually fill out a form, complete a purchase, book a service, or make a donation. That’s where accessibility issues tend to hide. In fact, WebAIM’s 2025 Million report found that 94.8% of the top 1,000,000 home pages had detectable Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) failures. That’s where I come in. I run hands-on accessibility reviews that go beyond automated tools. I test your site like a real user would and translate the findings into clear, prioritized fixes you can implement or hand to your developer or designer. Ways to work together: 1. Full Website Accessibility Audit (deep review across your site) 2. Homepage-Only Mini Audit (fast check of your most-visited page) 3. PDF Accessibility Conversion (make PDFs usable with screen readers) 4. Alt Text Writing Packages (product photos, homepage images, posts) 5. Email Signature Accessibility Review (fix a common, overlooked barrier) 6. Social Media Accessibility Quick Review (graphics, captions, links, video basics) and more! What you’ll get (always): 1. Plain-language results 2. A prioritized fix list 3. Practical guidance you can use right away Our approach Transparent pricing • Fast turnaround • WCAG-aligned • ADA/Section 508–informed • Bay Area + remote clients If your site is hard to use, it’s hard to grow. Prioritizing accessibility helps more people access your content, services, and opportunities. contact@accessibilityinpractice.com
