We need to tell the truth in this community: AI is not the threat. Broken processes are. Every time I speak with a organizations, I hear the same thing: “We need AI because we can’t hire fast enough.” But when I look under the hood? The issue isn’t hiring, it’s misalignment. AI can help you scale. But it cannot heal dysfunction you’ve normalized. This week, I want you to assess ONE thing: Where are you or your team relying on people to compensate for a broken workflow?

I’ve been a little quiet in here — not gone, just regrouping, recalibrating, and getting myself back into alignment. Because as I’m approaching the one-year anniversary of being laid off, I’ve been reflecting on this wild, transformational journey I’ve been on. This year has been nothing short of divine strategy. I dove head-first into AI… learned how it moves, how it thinks, how it empowers, and how it elevates leaders and organizations. I’ve seen firsthand how AI becomes a catalyst for clarity, confidence, and real results — not just for Fortune 500 companies, but for small businesses, solopreneurs, and everyday professionals who just need a smarter way forward. But here’s the truth I had to face: I wasn’t fully leveraging AI for myself. While I was out here advising clients, teaching, posting content, running sales calls, building funnels, preparing trainings, meeting with CEOs — I was doing everything manually. And it caught up with me. The other night — 1:30 AM — I found myself sitting on my couch, wide awake, staring into the dark like…“Tiffany… why are YOU not using AI to take this weight off your shoulders?” That one moment cracked something open. I had a deep, real, no-nonsense conversation with ChatGPT — and out of that came a whole new system of GPTs I’m building to manage my workload, streamline decisions, and help me execute at a level that feels unreal. And let me tell you…The last few days have been insane. In the best way. I’m seeing immediate progress. I'm breathing again. I'm creating again. I'm thinking like a true CEO again — not a one-woman operations department. Because I finally started using AI the way I teach YOU to use it: as a strategic partner, not a convenience tool. And now, I’m ready to pour back into this community with a whole new fire. I want to share what I’ve learned. I want to show you what’s possible. I want to help you build systems that protect your peace and increase your productivity .I want 2026 to be the year you stop doing everything the hard way.

Have you started planning for 2026? If so, what's "1" thing you plan to focus on next year?
