Ladies yall have been missing and I want to hear from you. Show Off Saturday: Brag a little. We’ll clap a lot. 🎉 This space is for wins, works-in-progress, and experiments. You don’t need a polished “launch” "product" "service" or "idea" to share, SMALL steps still count. Pick your comfort level: Lurker-friendly: 💻 learning something new with AI 🧪 experimenting with AI 🚀 shipped or built something AI, chnaged a process in my work or business with AI 🧩 stuck but trying to do (One-liner template (copy/paste): This week I used [model/tool] to [intent]. Outcome: [result or learning]. ) WIP Share (bullet points): What I’m building: Who it’s for: One screenshot or 10-sec clip (optional): Where I’m stuck (ask us!): Rioters, tell us what you did with AI with these 5 prompts. Feel free to answer 1 or all: - My build in 7 words: Tool(s) I used: One messy screenshot/gif: - What surprised me: The next step I’m taking: - Comment with #ShowOffSaturday so we can find you and boost you. Example 📝 - “I used [Claude/Gemini/ChatGPT/Perplexity] to [do X]. It saved me [time/steps].” - “I’m prototyping [X] for [audience]. I can’t figure out [Y] — any tips?” - “Before: [pain]. After: [improvement]. Tool: [model/app].” - “Tiny win: [one sentence]. Next: [one step].” - I'm learning [ whatever it is] and this is how I'm going to apply it in real life Your work is welcome here even if it’s 10% done. Progress over perfection every time! Let's celebrate some receipts ( and each other, of course ) #ShowOffSaturday

#ShowOffSaturday is back. Spring Break edition. I'm writing you all from Jamaica. It's interesting how travel opens up and expands your imagination. So this week, we're going deeper. ​ Last week, I talked about personal agency, your capacity to act intentionally and author your own story. This week, I want to talk about what gets in the way of it: the perfectionism tax. You know the one. The "I'll share when it's ready." The "I'm not far enough along yet." The "what if they judge my process and don't think this is good?" Here's what I know to be true: the people who build the most in public aren't the most confident, they're the most committed to learning out loud. And in a moment where AI is moving faster than any of us can keep up with, documenting your messy middle IS the work. So this Saturday, we're not waiting for a finished product. We're celebrating the receipt of showing up. ​ Show Off Saturday: Brag a little. We'll clap a lot. Your win doesn't need a bow on it. Drop it anyway. Pick your comfort level: 🧪 Still experimenting that counts. 🚀Shipped, built, or changed a process, let's GO. 🧩Stuck but trying — this community was built for exactly this. One-liner (copy/paste ready): This week I used [model/tool] to [intent]. Outcome: [result or learning]. Or go deeper with the WIP format: What I'm building: Who it's for: What surprised me: Where I'm stuck (ask us!): One messy screenshot or 10-sec clip (optional, but we love receipts ): 5 prompts to get you started. Answer one or all: My build in 7 words: Tool(s) I used: What surprised me: The next step I'm taking: The moment I almost quit but didn't: Examples to get you unstuck ​ "I used [Claude/Gemini/ChatGPT/Perplexity] to [do X]. It saved me [time/steps]." "I'm prototyping [X] for [audience]. I can't figure out [Y] — any tips?" "Before: [pain]. After: [improvement]. Tool: [model/app]." "Tiny win: [one sentence]. Next: [one step]." The perfectionism tax is expensive. Don't pay it today.

This is where you share your work. Don't be shy. You all know I'm a huge lover and advocate for personal agency, and looking back on my life and career its a result of having to show up for myself and advocate constantly ( which is beyond) exhausting in spaces that weren't designed for me. Let’s define a few things: Agency is the capacity to act intentionally, make self-directed choices, and author your own story rather than living from inherited scripts or external validation. Build in public means making your thinking, process, experiments, lessons, and evolution visible as you create, instead of waiting until everything is polished, perfect, or proven. So I designed this community practice or ritual to help us practice personal agency in the context of technology and AI, in a safe space. Show Off Saturday: Brag a little.
