Key takeaway: AI doesn't just save you time. It lets you build systems around how your brain actually works. For some people, that's the difference between burning out three quarters of the way through every project and shipping a business. One question for you: What's one thing in your work that feels draining because you're doing it the way everyone else does? What if you didn't? ๐บ Watch the episode: ๐ง Listen on Spotify:

Hi Reader, Danielle LaFleur ran a 22-person marketing agency.
