NotebookLM was amazing. 12 self-introduction slides for a housewife in her 50s

Hello. I'm Hoshi-mama⭐️

I've taken on my first challenge with AI!

I've been sharing useful AI tips for daily life little by little, but this time I entrusted my past self-introduction article to AI.

Then, to my own surprise, it created 12 wonderful slides✨

The AI laid out my hobbies (scratch art) and family structure so beautifully.

I was surprised that it was much more stylish than anything I could make myself! There are 12 slides in total.

I would be happy if you could scroll through them like flipping through pages.

You're curious about how I made it, right?😊

Actually, I only used 3 AI tools!

Let me introduce the rough flow.

✅ Step 1: Have NotebookLM read the article

I entered the URL of a self-introduction article I wrote in the past into NotebookLM.
I asked it, "Organize this content for slides."

✅ Step 2: Brush up the text with ChatGPT

Based on the text NotebookLM created, I adjusted it with ChatGPT to be "more friendly and easier to understand."
I reduced the technical jargon and changed it into my own words.

✅ Step 3: Adjust the design with Canva

I chose a Canva template and placed the text and images.
I made fine adjustments to the colors and layout.

I was confused at first, but when I tried it, I was surprisingly able to do it😊

⏰ The time it took was...

・Organizing with NotebookLM: about 10 minutes
・Adjusting with ChatGPT: about 30 minutes
・Editing with Canva: about 1 hour and 20 minutes

Total: about 2 hours (since it was my first time)

You might think, "It took 2 hours!", but if I had made this from scratch by myself, it probably would have taken all day...😅

And once I get used to operating Canva, I think I can make it in 1 hour next time!

I will introduce the detailed steps one by one carefully in the series from next time onwards!

😅 Something I failed at a little

Actually, it wasn't like everything was done in a flash like magic from the start😅

At first, I relied on NotebookLM too much and the text ended up full of technical jargon...😂

I thought, "This isn't my voice!" and asked ChatGPT over and over again,
"Make it friendlier, in the words of a housewife in her 50s."

I learned that while AI is convenient, it's important to make final adjustments in your own words✨

Also, I made a mistake with the image placement in Canva and had to redo three slides... 😂

But I enjoyed even that trial and error!

✨ I am so moved after making this

Having finished making these slides, I am truly moved right now ✨

To think that the articles I've been diligently writing for the past two months could turn into such a wonderful 'story (slides)' just by using three AI tools...!

After having the AI create a base to some extent, I rewrote it in my own words and worked hard editing it using Canva...

It took a little time, but when I finished, I couldn't help but say out loud, 'I did it! 🙌'

Even for an 'ordinary housewife' like me who isn't good with computers, I can express myself this much if I just take that first step.
That makes me happier than anything, and it has given me a lot of confidence.

I would be happy if I could build up this joy of 'I did it!' together with all of you from now on 💖

👉 If there is anyone who thought, 'I want to try it too!', please let me know in the comments 😊

Thank you so much 💕

📚 Announcement of a new series!

Up until now, I've been sharing my experiences about how 'AI is so convenient!', but in 2026, I want to take it a step further and enjoy learning the 'basics of AI' together with you all.

'AI seems convenient, but what actually is it? 🤔'
'It seems a bit difficult, maybe it's a world far away from me...'

I'm sure many of you feel that way.

🎯 Recommended for people like this

✅ You are interested in AI but don't know where to start
✅ You have experienced giving up because there were too many technical terms
✅ You want to learn together with peers of the same generation
✅ You are a bit uncomfortable with smartphones and computers...

⏰ It's casual content that you can read in 5 minutes per article!

So, from next time on, I would be happy if we could discover "Oh, I see!" moments one by one together from the perspective of a fellow housewife, without using difficult technical jargon🌿

Being able to do things like this is all because I've become friends with AI😊

"I want to try it too, but AI seems difficult..."

If you thought that, it's okay to start right here.

I am writing an introductory series that starts gently, beginning with "What exactly is ChatGPT anyway?"

Even I, a tech-illiterate person in my 50s, could do it, so you will definitely be fine⭐️
