5 Hours Back. One Mindset Shift. Here's How.

Hello there,
When was the last time you had a full hour to think about what you want?
Be honest.
I’ve spent over a decade coaching executives and teaching leaders about Getting Unstuck. Here’s what I know: busy is often another word for stuck. When you don't know what's next, it's easier to fill the space with tasks, meetings, and emails, without any real progress.
This month, we're talking about AI-Powered Liberation. Not hypothetically, I'm teaching from my experience using tech tools to reclaim my time, energy, and attention- and how you can do it too.
In my TRIBE methodology, leveraging technology is part of the Innovation pillar of Getting Unstuck. It's learning to do things differently so you can focus on what matters.
I recently looked at my own week and realized I was spending hours on tasks that I could delegate because they didn't require high-level work, like those assigned to my team of talented writers, editors, and strategists.
Then I watched a six-year-old run her business on an AI platform. And I thought if she can build an AI team, so can I.
I spent a week training, testing, and deploying my new assistant and receptionist to handle important, and often distracting, tasks: Scheduling. Drafting. Research. All the "keeping the lights on" work that can take up my few minutes of rest and drains my energy.
Offloading those tasks is innovation in action. By recognizing that your brain and attention are your most valuable assets, you can let go of doing it all and embrace limiting yourself to what only you can do.
As summer kicks into full gear, ask yourself: What tasks am I doing that tech could handle?
Now imagine what you’ll do and how you’ll feel when you are not just moving faster, you are moving toward what matters.
Let's reclaim your time.
So here’s your challenge: Find one task this week that tech can handle. Offload it. Then spend that hour thinking about what you actually want.
That’s not busy work. That is your pivot.

Coach’s Corner: Protecting Your Energy

Here’s the trap: You hold onto tasks because you’re capable, because it seems faster to do it yourself. Because no one else will do it exactly the way you would.
But here’s what I know: Waiting to delegate costs you your energy. And when your energy is gone, you can’t lead. Period.
Think of your AI tools as a no-friction way to delegate. Not a person who needs handholding, but a system that drafts, organizes, researches, and clears mental clutter, so you don’t have to do it.
