EU AI Act: What You Need to Know About Disclosing AI-Generated Content

⏱️ Read time: 5 min This week warrants an extra edition because a significant part of the EU AI Act is now coming into force. I also want to be upfront: I'm not a legal expert on the EU AI Act. This is informational content only, not legal advice. The EU AI Act is complex and enforcement is evolv...

Self-leadership > AI hacks

⏱️ Read time: ~2 min A client called last week. We're between contracts, but their AI chatbot subscription still runs on my account. They asked if we could keep it that way until they build more internal AI capabilities. I said yes, but added: "Please don't expect a monthly invoice. It's only a...

Why Your 4th AI Answer Gets Worse (And How to Fix It)

⏱️ Read time: ~2 min This week's edition is super hands-on. You've probably noticed this: Your AI Chatbot performs well until, suddenly, the response is... off. Vague. Less helpful. And you're wondering why when everything was working just fine until a few moments ago. If it helps, you're not m...

How many tabs do you have open right now?

⏱️ Read time: ~2 min A YouTube video you saved for later. A free guide you downloaded last month. Maybe a course you bought with the best intentions and haven't touched since. I'm not judging, I do it too. We all do. There's so much good content out there, and the plan is always to get to it "whe...

On navigating the AI tool maze, even when you should know better

⏱️ Read time: ~3 min Even I lose track. More often than I'd like to admit. I've been working with AI since the early days of generative AI. I've tested tools, built workflows, advised clients, and helped teams integrate AI into how they work. And yet, I keep finding myself mid-task asking: wait,...

Barely Prepared to Briefed: Monica's Meeting Prep Workflow

⏱️ Read time: ~3 min Let me tell you about Monica. Monica is a Leadership and Team Coach. Sharp, experienced, and genuinely good at what she does. But like most coaches I know, she had a meeting prep problem. Not a laziness problem. A time problem. Prep happened when it happened, which meant some...

Why The #1 AI Skill Has Nothing to Do With The Tool You're Using

⏱️ Read time: ~3 min The AI space is moving fast. Faster than most of us can keep up with. Claude is doing things that felt impossible even a few months ago. AI agents are now within reach for non-technical people. New tools drop every week, each one more impressive than the last. And yet, most ...

From Library to AI: What the Information Shift Means for Coaches

⏱️ Read time: ~2 min Before the internet, you had options. You asked an expert. You pulled out the encyclopedia. You went to the library, found the right section, and did the work of piecing it together yourself. Information existed, but accessing it took effort, trust, and often another human b...

The skills that will matter most. And why I keep asking myself this question.

⏱️ Read time: ~3 min I've been in a lot of rooms lately — roundtables, peer conversations, strategy calls — and the same question keeps surfacing, sometimes out loud, sometimes just hanging in the air: What skills are actually going to matter going forward? I don't think anyone has it fully figu...

More AI. More at your limit. Why?

⏱️ Read time: ~2 min You're using AI more than ever. Getting better results, too. So why does it feel like you're more at your limit, not less? If that's been nagging at you, join the club. There's a pattern underneath it, and once you see it, the whole thing stops feeling like a personal failin...

AI is getting more expensive → become a better user

⏱️ Read time: ~4 min Something shifted recently and I'm hearing about it everywhere in my community. Claude has introduced usage limits and is raising its prices. Hit your limit? You can't continue working unless you buy extra credits. Full stop. And of course, it always happens to me when I am d...
