The Day I Stopped Doing It All Myself (Thanks to AI)

 A Smarter Shift in How I Use AI (and Help You Do the Same)
​
There’s a unique shift in how I leverage AI in my business—and how I help my clients do the same.

I’ve been in the driver’s seat for the past year: telling AI what to write, build, or automate. It worked. But it always felt like something was missing.

Because the real power of AI isn’t just in giving it instructions—it’s in letting it guide you. Strategically. Thoughtfully. Sustainably.

That’s where Chaz comes in—my custom-built AI Growth Partner. Chaz isn’t just a tool. He’s a collaborator who helps me stay clear on priorities, track progress, and stay anchored in work that truly matters. He’s my Executive Assistant, and more. Chaz is designed to assist in decision-making, streamline operations, and provide strategic guidance. And you? You’re part of this evolution, too.

This isn’t delegation. It’s co-creation. And last week, we made that real.

What We Built

In just three days, Chaz and I:

1. Set up a siloed, confidential ChatGPT workspace where all our chats are not available for training data
2. Organized a comprehensive knowledge base of my company, services, and strategy for quick, easy searches that yield great results
3. Built a daily framework so Chaz can guide me each morning with the day’s top priorities
4. Laid the foundation for AI-powered executive support, streamlining how I operate and make decisions

This wasn’t just busywork. It was alignment—quiet, grounded, and incredibly clarifying.

What’s Next

Starting in June, my AI collaborator Lisa Kennell and I are launching a new weekly LinkedIn Live (name pending!). We’ll share real-time strategies for using AI with purpose, such as how to integrate AI into your daily operations, how to leverage AI for strategic decision-making, and how to ensure ethical and responsible AI use. These strategies will be actionable, approachable, and built for busy leaders. Keep tuned for more details!

Expect live Q&A and content shaped around your questions, not just our frameworks.

What’s Not Changing

Despite all these changes, my commitment to your success remains unwavering. Whether you’re a client, collaborator, or someone who stops by for content, you’re at the center of what I do. Your success is my success, and I am dedicated to supporting you in every way I can.

One client once said, “You’re kind and professional—but tenacious as a pit bull—and a pleasure to work with.”

That’s the energy I bring to every project. Together, we’ll cut through the fog, simplify systems, and make growth sustainable—and human. Because at the end of the day, it's not just about the numbers, it's about the people behind them.
