Quick check-in. What’s on your plate this week — and is AI touching any of it? I’ll go first. I had 9 meetings this week that I recorded. Consulting calls, coaching sessions, networking conversations. Every one of them produced action items, follow-ups, commitments, and details I need to remember months from now. Old me would’ve spent the rest of the week replaying recordings and scribbling notes. Instead, I ran them through a transcription and debrief pipeline — and had structured outputs for every single call in under an hour. Commitments tracked. Follow-up emails drafted. Client files updated. The meetings were the work. The processing wasn’t — that’s the system’s job now. Your turn. What are you working on? Doesn’t have to involve AI — but if it does, I want to hear what’s working and what’s not.

I invited every one of you here for a reason. I know who you are. But you don't all know each other yet — and you should, because this room is full of people I think are worth knowing. So let's fix that. Drop a quick intro below: 1. Who you are and what you do 2. Where you're at with AI right now — haven't touched it, dabbling, using it daily, or somewhere in between 3. One thing you're curious about or hoping to figure out while you're here I'll jump in the comments and add context on why I invited each of you — because it wasn't random.

My AI system has 19 agents. Sounds impressive until you realize one of them once tried to schedule a meeting with another agent. 🤦‍♂️ They're text files. They don't have calendars. The gap between "my system is sophisticated" and "my system just did something idiotic" Is thinner than you may think. Sometimes, it's about 30 seconds on any given day. I think this is the part people miss about building with AI: It's not a clean upward trajectory. It's messy. You build something clever...then it does something that makes you question your life choices. You fix it...then it works better than you expected. What's the dumbest thing AI has done for you? Not the horror stories — the stuff that just made you laugh.

Everyone talks about AI tools. Nobody talks about AI habits. Which model to use. Which plugin to install. Which framework to follow. But the people actually getting results? They built habits, not just workflows. They have a morning check-in with their AI. They have a shutdown routine where they log what happened. They default to AI for specific task types without thinking about it — the way you default to Google for a search. The tool doesn't matter if you only open it when you "remember to." The habit layer is where AI goes from "sometimes useful" to "how did I work without this?" What's one AI habit you've built — or one you want to build but haven't yet?

New YouTube Video is up! 80% of professionals quit AI tools within 3 weeks — not because the tools are bad, but because using them well forces an identity crisis most people aren't ready for. In this video, I break down the three psychological barriers keeping smart professionals from thriving with AI: the identity crisis nobody sees coming, the delegation gap that makes AI outputs feel generic, and efficient mediocrity — when AI makes bad thinking look polished.
