New summit alert! I'm speaking at Ruth Poundwhite's Aligned AI Summit on September 10th. My session is called 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝗠𝘆 𝗔𝗜 𝗧𝗲𝗮𝗺: 𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗜 𝗥𝘂𝗻 𝗠𝘆 𝗕𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝟮 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀 𝗮 𝗗𝗮𝘆, and I'm walking through what I actually hand off to AI, what I still do myself, and where that line is for me. Spoiler: it's not everything, and it's not nothing. 😜 There are 30+ other speakers over the four days (Sept 8-11), all talking about using AI in a way that actually fits how you work, without losing your personality and humanity in the process. Presentations are short and sweet (15-20 min), pre-recorded so you can watch on your own time, and free for 48 hours each. Check it out here! Anybody else in this group speaking in the summit? I've seen a lot of familiar names and faces so far!

This or That: Tiny Luxuries Edition - Fresh sheets OR a freshly cleaned house? - Coffee made for you OR dinner made for you? - Massage OR pedicure? - An extra hour of sleep OR an hour completely alone? - An uninterrupted shower OR an uninterrupted meal? - Wandering around a bookstore OR wandering around Target with nowhere else to be? - Takeout OR having someone else cook AND clean up? - Fresh flowers OR your favorite candle?

What system works best for your brain? OR are you still trying to find a system that you can stick to that works for your brain? 😅

Every single week, a new business strategy, marketing tactic, or time-saving automation drops into our feeds promising to change everything. The hard part isn't discovering them. It’s figuring out which ones actually earn a permanent spot in your daily routine instead of just collecting dust in your bookmarks—especially when you're building around a busy life, family, or a full-time job. This is the lean stack I rely on to actually get things done without the hustle-bro burnout: n8n / Make: For wiring up backend client-getting automations and moving data seamlessly so systems run in the background while handling real life. Apify: My go-to tool for heavy data extraction, web scraping, and gathering the raw market intelligence needed to find clients fast in the hours available. GoLogin: Essential for managing isolated browser profiles securely, keeping multi-account workflows clean, and avoiding friction during outreach. XAMPP & Local SQL: Where custom web applications and business database environments are configured, tested, and fine-tuned on your own schedule. Tailwind CSS: Keeps frontend updates fast, clean, and responsive without getting bogged down in messy custom stylesheets. Floment: Useful for organizing community engagement, sharing workflows, and keeping discussions structured in one place. The bigger lesson here is that stacking tools just because they are trending is a fast track to exhaustion. I’d rather find a real operational bottleneck → map out a clean system → test the workflow → deploy it → and make sure it actually gives you your time back. That’s a much better way to build a client-getting, sale-making business than chasing every shiny object on the internet. Hey everyone! Seeing how Olivia and this community focus entirely on building real businesses around actual life (instead of pushing unlimited-time hustle culture) is such a breath of fresh air. Building smart systems means your tech works around your schedule, not the other way around.
