Hello,
A tweet went viral this week. Half a million views in two days. It was this one:

Half a million people saw that and thought, "that's me."
Not because they're lazy. Because they're overwhelmed. And I think the AI industry has done this to people deliberately, even if nobody wants to admit it.
Every week, there's a new tool. Every week, someone on LinkedIn posts "10 AI tools that will save you 20 hours." Every week, you bookmark it, maybe download one of them, open it once, get confused by the interface, close it, and go back to doing things manually. The list of tools you've tried grows. The amount of time AI actually saves you stays roughly the same: close to zero.
I've been working with professionals one-on-one on their AI workflows for the past few months, and I can tell you with absolute certainty, the people getting real results are not the ones with the most tools. They're the ones with the fewest.
The pattern is so consistent it's almost boring. The person with ten AI subscriptions and no system is spending more time managing tools than doing work. The person with two tools and a clear system for five specific tasks is saving genuine hours every week and barely thinks about AI anymore. It's just part of how they work.
Why Two Tools Are Enough
Here's what I teach in my cohort, and I'm going to give you the honest version of it right here because I think it matters.
Most AI tools are doing the same thing underneath. ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, they're all large language models. The interface is different. The buttons are in different places. Some are better at certain things than others. But the core skill, how to communicate with AI so that it gives you something genuinely useful, is the same skill across all of them.
When you understand how AI actually thinks, how it processes your input, why it gives you generic answers when you give it generic prompts, how to add context and constraints and role and structure so the output is actually good, the specific tool almost doesn't matter. You could switch platforms tomorrow and still get the same results because the skill lives in you, not in the app.
That's the difference between learning tools and learning AI.
I teach two tools. That's it. We go deep on two, and by the end, you understand the logic well enough to pick up anything else without starting from scratch. No overwhelm. No subscription graveyard. No Tuesday morning spent watching another tutorial about an app you'll never open again.
The people I've worked with who are saving real time every week all did the same three things.
First, they stopped trying to use AI for everything and picked five specific tasks. Not "AI for productivity" in some vague, aspirational way. Five actual tasks from their actual week. The email they write every Monday. The report they pull together every month. The meeting prep they do before every client call. Specific, repeated, time-consuming work.
Second, they built a prompt for each of those tasks that actually works, tested it, refined it, and saved it somewhere they control. Not inside ChatGPT. In a Google Doc, a Notion page, or a folder on their desktop. Their Monday morning self doesn't need to be creative. She just opens the doc and follows the system.
Third, they stopped learning new tools and started using the ones they already have properly. That's the bit nobody wants to hear because it's not exciting. A new tool feels like progress. Going deeper into the tool you already have feels like standing still. But it's where the results actually come from.
AI, Done Properly - Starts March 23rd
This is what I built my cohort to do. Not teach you a hundred apps. Teach you how AI works so you can use any of them.
Six weeks. Two tools. Your specific role. Your actual tasks.
Weeks 1-2: We audit your working week together and find the five tasks where AI will make the biggest difference.
Weeks 3-4: We build your personal prompt library, test, refine, saved somewhere that belongs to you.
Weeks 5-6: We put it into a weekly system you can follow without thinking about it.
I work with everyone individually because your workflow doesn't look like anyone else's.
£297 for the full six weeks.

Something I Want to Do for This Community
I want to switch gears for a moment because there's something I've been thinking about, and I just want to be straight with you about it.
A lot of people I know are out of work right now. Friends. Former colleagues. People in this community. Some of them have been looking for months. And the landscape has changed in a way that most job seekers haven't caught up with yet: companies are now using AI to screen applications before a human ever sees them. Your CV goes through an automated system first. If it's not structured the right way, if it doesn't match the right keywords, if the formatting confuses the software, you're rejected before anyone reads a word you wrote.
That's not fair. But it's how it works now. And I think most people don't realise it's happening to them.
I've built something to help. It's an AI Job Search Playbook, a proper, step-by-step system for using AI to find jobs, tailor your applications, prepare for interviews, and get past those automated screens. I built it for a friend originally. Then I shared it with someone else. She loved it. So now I want to share it with anyone who needs it.
It's free. No strings. No email sequence. No upsell.
If you're looking for work right now, reply to this email and say "send me the playbook." That's it. I'll send it over.
And if it's not you but you know someone, a friend, a family member, a colleague who's been struggling with the search, forward this email to them or reply and ask for it on their behalf. I'll send it.
One More Thing
I'm also building something I'm genuinely excited about, and I want to offer it to this community first.
Personalised AI career and life coaching playbooks. Built individually for you. Completely free.
Here's how it works. You reply to this email and send me your LinkedIn profile link. Using the public information on your profile, your experience, your skills, and your trajectory, I'll build you a personalised playbook within 24 hours. It will include an honest assessment of where you are, clarity on where you could go, and a practical roadmap for getting there.
If you want to go deeper, you can include a few extra details, your current role, your responsibilities, what you're thinking about or working toward, areas where you want more clarity, or specific objectives you're trying to reach in the next few years. The more you share, the more specific and useful the playbook becomes.
I'm doing this because this community has been incredibly generous with its time, its attention, and its trust. And I want to give something back that actually has value, not a PDF that sits in your downloads folder, but something built specifically for you that you can actually use.
Reply to this email with your LinkedIn link, and I'll have it to you within 24 hours.
Thanks for reading,
See you next Wednesday with more ways to use AI without losing your mind (or your credibility).
