Our education system was built for the industrial age, not the AI age.
For decades, we taught everyone the same way, at the same pace, with the same goals. That worked when the world moved slowly. It doesn’t anymore. With AI, we can now hyper-personalize learning for every student based on their background, goals, and pace. Scalable. Efficient. Human-centered. The risk is simple. Education move slowly. AI doesn’t. If we don’t evolve fast enough, entire generations will enter the job market unprepared for reality. In my opinion, the winners will be the ones who act on AI now, not later.

My Leadership Journey at SXSW EDU 2026
Building something meaningful is hard. I went to SXSW EDU looking for answers. But I found something bigger: a community. Here are my biggest takeaways from SXSW EDU 2026: From the start, Yousra Magouri spoke about mentorship as a force for transformation. Real mentorship means sharing failures and the messy parts of the journey so others can find their own “aha” moment. Kirstie Papworth, Michellana Jester, Ari Lightman, and Bill Heinrich Heinrich reinforced why experiential learning and learning by doing matter. AI can support learning, but it cannot replace human learning. Elaine Zuniga and Ryan Westrup shared an honest founder story about building an EdTech startup together. Bootstrapped. No perfect roadmap. Just resilience, trust, and learning how to keep going. At the FOHE Mixer hosted by Future of Higher Education, it was energizing to connect with founder Ray Batra, reconnect with Connor Koblinski, and try to get Reed Dickson to give me high fives :) At the meetup with Julia Kaziewicz Collier, the advice was practical, generous, and interactive. She pushed us to share, connect, and create content. It was a reminder that telling our story matters. The keynote with Martha Salazar-Zamora, and Adeel Khan, founder of MagicSchool AI, made one thing clear: teachers must stay at the center. AI should support educators, but never replace them.

Epiphany: Education Exists to Produce Students. Not Courses.
A few years ago, I had an epiphany as an educator: The product of education isn’t courses or programs. It’s the students… and their impact in our communities. That’s why everyone is asking the wrong question about AI in schools. It’s not whether AI will make students lazy. It’s about how students use it. Some students will use AI to do less thinking. Others will push thinking to a whole new level. If we ban it, we don’t prevent cheating. We delay student’s real-world readiness. In my opinion, the solution is to teach AI as a universal skill, in order to increase human-to-human interaction in learning.

🔁 Churn Checklist: Alex Hormozi’s 14 Strategies 💪
People sign up… then they cancel. If you want growth, you need to keep members engaged. Here’s a 14-step checklist from Alex Hormozi to help you lower churn and keep people around. 1. Cancellation Video 🎥🚫 When someone clicks “cancel,” play a video explaining what they’ll miss. Sometimes a reminder of the value they’re leaving behind can make them reconsider. 2. Find the Activation Point 🎉🚀 The “activation point” is the first “aha!” moment. Identify what this is for your product and get members there fast—first wins make lasting members. 3. Onboarding Calls ☎️👋 Welcome new members with a call. This brief touchpoint makes them feel supported and less likely to cancel. 4. Time Unlock ⏳🔓 Release content gradually to keep members coming back. Drip-feeding prevents overwhelm and encourages long-term engagement. 5. Level Unlock 🎮📈 Create levels with new perks or tools at each step. The sense of progress keeps members motivated and invested. 6. From Guru to Community 👥💬 Members might join for you, the “guru,” but keep them for the community. A space for connection fosters loyalty. 7. Encourage Pausing, Not Canceling 💵💸 Offer a “pause” option instead of outright cancellation. Many people just need a break—not a full exit. 8. Smart Pricing Tactics 🤑💰 Offer discounts for longer commitments. A smart pricing structure can be the difference between staying and canceling. 9. Build a Positive Culture 🏆🔥 When members feel part of something bigger, they’re more likely to stay. Share success stories and celebrate wins. 10. Value-Pricing Balance ⚖️💵 Price to match value. Members who feel they’re getting a fair deal are more likely to stay. 11. Regular Community Calls 🗣️💻 Hold calls where members can ask questions, share wins, and get feedback. A connected community is a loyal one. 12. Target High-Retainers 🎯🙌 Analyze who stays longest and why. Target more of those types—quality over quantity pays off. 13. Reduce Overwhelm 😵📉 Don’t drown members in information. Simplify and provide value in stages to prevent churn.
