#51 - This spring I spent $9,000 of my own money on a twelve week AI course, and the most valuable thing I walked out with won't cost you a dollar. I'm going solo to share what actually changed across three months of building with AI as a fractional CMO. Why I was heading toward burnout in the first place, what the class paid back and how fast, the AI partner I built that gives me back five to ten hours a week, and the part that surprised me most: the hardest work had nothing to do with AI. It was making decisions, and then getting them out of my head and documented so my team could move without me. If you use AI every day and still have the nagging feeling you're not doing enough with it, this one is for you.
