DAY ONE · AI FOUNDATIONS

The promise Most business owners lose hours a week to work a well-set-up assistant could do. This is the day you build that assistant. We set Claude up with you, on your own laptop, so you walk out with tools already running rather than a longer to-do list.

Who it's for Women business owners and professionals, at any stage, who are new to AI or using it casually and want a proper setup that does real work. No technical background needed. Bring a laptop and the tasks that eat your week.

What you walk away with

A working, branded Claude set up for your business, that sounds like you and not a robot
One real workflow built and running before you leave
A map of your own week, with every repeated task sorted into what to hand over now, what to hand over later, and what stays with you
A clear picture of the few tools that matter for your work, and how they connect
A 30-day action plan for putting it all into daily use

Everything you build is portable. Nothing we teach locks you into one tool. If you ever wanted to move to a different AI, or step away from AI altogether, what you build today moves with you and still works.

The seven phases

Phase 1 · Ground rules What Claude is, what it does well, and where it gets things wrong. Enough grounding to use it with judgement rather than blind trust. Kept short and plain, so we can get to the building.

Phase 2 · Map your week The three-bucket task audit. We walk through everything you repeat in a week and sort it: hand over now, hand over later, keep with you. You leave this phase knowing exactly where AI belongs in your work and where it does not.

Phase 3 · Set Claude up properly Projects, context, and your own brand voice loaded in, on your machine. This is the difference between generic AI output and an assistant that already knows your business and writes the way you do.

Phase 4 · Prompting that holds up Past "write me an email" and into prompting as a craft: giving Claude the right context, iterating, and building a feedback loop so your prompts get sharper the more you use them. We evaluate and improve prompts together in the room.

Phase 5 · Build your first workflow One real workflow, start to finish, on your own business, running before you leave. This is the moment it stops being theory.

Phase 6 · Your working stack The handful of tools that actually matter, and how they connect around Claude. We cut through the noise so you are not paying for or juggling things you do not need.

Phase 7 · Human in the loop, and your plan Keeping a person in the decision seat as you hand more over, and a 30-day action plan so momentum carries into next week rather than fading by Monday.
