Dear Empowered One,
The other night I was staring down a to‑do list that looked more like a novella: client calls, team strategy, slides to polish for our Upcoming Financial Freedom Course, plus planning my daughter’s upcoming birthday. By 10 p.m., my creative brain was fried and my shoulders were tight.
Out of sheer overwhelm, I opened an AI assistant and asked it to tackle the entire party to‑do list—decor ideas, shopping list, and timeline. In minutes, ideas flowed that would’ve taken me hours. Encouraged, I dropped the messy course notes into the same tool and watched it shape a clean, engaging outline.
That moment reminded me: AI isn’t here to replace our intuition or hustle. It’s here to give us back what’s priceless—time, focus and peace.

Why This Matters Right Now
AI adoption is mainstream. 61 % of American adults use AI, and nearly one in five rely on it daily.
Parents are power users. 79 % integrate AI into routines like childcare planning and research.
Small businesses are scaling with AI. 38 % leverage it across operations; 28 % specifically for marketing and social media.
The upside is massive. McKinsey estimates AI could unlock $4.4 trillion in productivity growth—but only 1 % of companies feel mature in deployment.

The AI Alignment Blueprint
1. Honor Your Energy First
Delegate the drainers. Use tools like ChatGPT or Gemini to whip up meal plans, birthday scavenger hunts, or prep notes from raw transcripts.
Time‑box it. Set a 15‑minute timer and let AI brainstorm dinner ideas—or any task you’d normally overthink.
Automate admin. Otter.ai or Fireflies can capture meeting notes; Notion AI can summarize them into tasks.
Affirmation: “I invest my energy where it multiplies—not where it disappears.”
2. Be Strategic with Your Yes
Filter with V.E.S.S. (Values, Energy, Strategy, Sustainability) before adopting a new tool.
Align marketing efforts. Jasper, Copy.ai, or Notion AI can rough‑draft your newsletter—you polish the heart.
Affirmation: “My yes is sacred. Abundance expands when I choose with clarity.”
3. Automate & Protect
Financial peace: AI‑powered apps like Copilot or Cleo track spending and nudge savings automatically.
Cyber hygiene: Enable AI‑driven security scans (e.g., Microsoft Defender’s AI alerts) to safeguard data.
Affirmation: “I use technology to protect and grow my wealth—not to replace my wisdom.”

Final Word: Your Humanity Is the Secret Sauce
Next Thursday: turning AI‑generated ideas into income streams. AI drafts emails, builds budgets, and summarizes notes—but it can’t replicate your lived experience or intuition. Use it not to do more, but to be more—present, aligned, and abundantly free.
With fierce love & grounded vision,
