If you need some inspiration and direction this weekend check out the first 5 episodes of The Impossible Entrepreneur season 2! First 5 episodes of season 2: Ep. 301 - Season 2, Episode 1: From Impossible to Inevitable Ep. 302 - Season 2, Episode 2: Decide Your Destination Ep. 303 - Season 2, Episode 3: The Power of Planning Ep. 304 - Season 2, Episode 4: Closing the Identity Gap Ep. 305 - Season 2, Episode 5: The AI Advantage You can watch the full episodes on Spotify, or listen to the Impossible Entrepreneur on Apple, Amazon and YouTube (still sorting out video on YouTube, trying not to do everything at once while I am recovering from surgery 😅) https://open.spotify.com/show/5LGcTncLPmZjvAiuDyMP8a?si=f8062d68e3804bc6 Through a bit of consistency and hard work I was able to publish one episode each day this week. Now to adapt my new short form content over the next week and then after 6 months of strategic planning I will have a streamlined content creation system that could easily take a team of 10 to execute, but with AI I'm able to do it all on my own. All of this work used to take me 40+ hours per month, but now with this new system it should be down to 5 hours once it's fully operational. Creating great systems can both save you time and get you closer to your goals with less energy! I will be relieved once this piece of work is done and progressing smoothly so I can move onto my next forward moving project. How is your work progressing this week? I hope everything is going well! If you have any questions let me know :) Architect Anna

So it has taken me six months to get to today and it's still not right. I have been working on my new podcast format since late October and published my first episode today. The episode has high quality video, a large microphone, a podcast studio I set up in my new flat, lighting, sound proof walls, the whole shabang, but the connection between my new hosting platform (Riverside) and the distribution platforms (Spotify, Apple, Amazon and YouTube) is currently not working correctly. Story of my life. I'm using AI to troubleshoot my way through each individual roadblock, but some things are still not quite working, so I will just need to wait and see if they need time to connect correctly before I take any further steps. It's still progress and once it's all up and running it will be a much much better content creation system, but for now, it's still difficult. I've already recorded the first 10 episodes, they are ready to be released over the next few weeks and from those I will have a whole new batch of social media content to cut into shorts from tomorrow. I would love for my podcast to one day be really great, but to get to that point you have to start out with it being just good, okay or down right shit. I'm proud of what I've done so far recording 300 episodes in Season 1 documenting my entrepreneurial journey and I'm excited to take things to the next level in Season 2. It just may not be a full clean launch today. So be it. Hopefully I will be able to share the good news soon about the successful launch of Season 2 and share all the links with you guys when the time comes, but for today, I'm going to pause, get my crutches out and try to take a short walk outside on this sunny day along the water for the first time since my surgery 3 weeks ago. Imperfect action is still progress. Have a lovely day! Architect Anna

More than anything, daily consistency will help you reach your goals in Q2 and having a great morning routine will help you do that. So I've created a morning routine evaluation prompt to review what you are currently doing and identify what's working and what's not. It will score your current routine and provide suggested improvements that might make success a bit easier to achieve on a daily basis. I thought this might be helpful to share since I was doing this for myself this week. My daily routines have basically become non existent after surgery and I want to try to get them back as quickly as possible, but also make them better than they were before too while I've got time! ☺️ Whether you are doing things smoothly at the moment or have hit a road block in your path I hope this prompt will be useful. Have a wonderful weekend! Architect Anna

Hello everyone and thank you so much for your kind messages last week ahead of my surgery! Everything went well and I am recovering at home. This surgery was a huge win for me, since I waited 6.5 years for the NHS to fix my knee after an injury in 2019, and also a challenge as it has impacted my work and now my ability to walk for the next few weeks. So I thought I would bring the question to you, what has been your biggest win and challenge of the first quarter of 2026? What will you bring into Q2 and leave behind in Q1? Hopefully we can all celebrate each others successes and help each other through the challenges as well in this group :) Let me know how Q1 was for you and what your plans are for Q2! Wishing each of you all the best! Thanks again for your support last week, it is very appreciated ❤️ I've got lots of surgery photos, but I don't want to gross anyone out, so I won't post them with this message 😅 Architect Anna

Earlier this month I flew to Dublin Ireland to deliver a full day of AI training. I've always wanted to go to Dublin, but just never got around to it, so this was a very exciting opportunity. I flew in the day before and explored the city from the docks, to the Guinness factory, all the way out to the zoo. I got to stay in a nice hotel and have dinner in my room as I prepared for the training the next day. Then it all happened so quickly, it was an amazing training day, I delivered the session, went to the airport, had dinner and came home. A very short, but sweet trip. Yesterday I got to speak at the British Library for a great event that will have an impact far beyond that session. Helping other entrepreneurs is one of my favourite things to do and from the session I delivered yesterday that could be tens of thousands of people and small businesses. I got lots of positive feedback from the day and I think it's so cool that I get to blow peoples minds on a regular basis! One of the best parts of the day was that my mom could be there, she flew in from America yesterday morning hours before I went on stage! She has never seen me do public speaking before and it was really special to have her at that event. But she didn't fly all the way from America just to hear me speak, she is here to help me over the next couple of weeks. Tomorrow I am having major surgery and pausing my AI training work while I recover. I'm hoping I can use my medical leave for some much needed deep work, thinking, learning and testing time, but the reality is I have no idea what kind of shape I will be in after tomorrow, so I am going to give myself a bit of grace to do as my body needs. That is also why I'm posting this on a Tuesday rather than the usual Friday post. I am truly so grateful my mom could be here to help me, and as independent as you and I may be it is still important to know when to ask for help and welcome it when it comes. So, what a month! International training, big events and now surgery.
