Ever make a big decision and after the fact realize you completely missed an angle? 👀 Yeah, us too.

On Sept 23 (12–1pm PT, virtual) we're teaming up with founder Nikki Belt to help you build your own AI-powered "board of advisors" — a tool you can literally use the next time you're stuck on a hard call (career, business, life, whatever).

Nikki's spent 20 years in corporate ops at places like Google + the Gates Foundation, and now helps small business owners actually use AI without the hype. She knows her stuff.

You'll walk away with:
✨ A real prompt/tool you can reuse
✨ A way to get AI to poke holes in your thinking
✨ A framework for catching blind spots + hidden tradeoffs

Oh — and we're raffling off 2 free 30-min 1:1 sessions with Nikki at the end 👀 free coaching, don't miss it.
