Career + Life Design for the AI Era

Leave December 9 with a 90-day plan for your career and your life.

A 90-minute live working session for busy professionals. Bring one real thing: a conversation you need to prepare for, a win nobody has noticed, or a task that keeps eating your week. We'll work on it together, with AI helping, and you'll leave with next steps you can use Thursday morning.

Time to work on your own next chapter

A working session,
with room to think.

This is a working session focused on your career, work, and life, with AI as a tool to help you prepare for conversations, make your value visible, reduce everyday friction, and build your next steps. You’ll think, write, and make decisions throughout, keeping your own judgment in charge.

Cheryl will guide you through practical exercises using the situations you bring. You might prepare for a career conversation, capture accomplishments, or work through something that keeps taking up space on your list. You’ll choose what fits your circumstances and build next steps you can use.

You'll also see how I used AI to sort my own closet, keep what earned its place, and find outfits I'd never put together, without buying a thing. Then we'll apply the same method to your career, your to-do list, and your year. You'll leave with the closet prompt and the others we use in the session.

Who this is for

You have things you want to make room for.

  • You do capable work and want your accomplishments to be seen, with more clarity about your career direction and next moves.
  • You’re carrying a full workload and responsibilities at home, and want to reduce the friction and mental load that follow you through the week.
  • You want practical ways to use AI for preparation, learning, planning, and recurring tasks while keeping your own judgment in charge.

You can come with a specific goal or use the session to work out where to begin.

“It brought tears to my eyes and really articulated what I am looking for.”

Career + Work + Life

What you’ll actually work on

Bring your own situations. We’ll connect practical AI use to the work, decisions, and responsibilities already in your life.

  1. 01

    See where your time, energy, and attention are going

    Identify the work, responsibilities, goals, and mental load consuming capacity across your career and life.

  2. 02

    Strengthen your career leverage

    Use AI to help make your value visible and prepare for important conversations. Think through visibility and sponsorship, and clarify possible next moves.

  3. 03

    Work smarter without outsourcing your thinking

    Find practical ways AI can help you prepare, learn faster, organize information, draft, and handle recurring work. Check what it gives you and keep your judgment in the process.

  4. 04

    Take things off your plate at home, too

    Look at recurring responsibilities, planning, family logistics, personal admin, and other invisible work that may not need as much of your brain anymore.

  5. 05

    Decide what deserves your attention next

    Bring career, work, and life priorities together. Decide what deserves attention now, what can wait, and where you want your time and energy to go.

  6. 06

    Build a practical 90-day plan

    Choose a few meaningful moves and turn them into manageable next steps you can actually use.

“I am so inspired by you consistently reinventing yourself to adapt to the rapidly changing times. You are definitely helping me to recognize the value of ‘rewiring’ my thinking to leverage AI in all aspects of my life.”

Cathy

Practical questions

Before you join.

Do I need to be experienced with AI?

No. Bring your own work, questions, and responsibilities. Cheryl will guide the exercises and help you see where AI can support preparation, learning, and everyday tasks. You’ll decide what is useful for your situation.

Is this another AI training?

This is a working session focused on your career, work, and life. You’ll use practical AI exercises to prepare for conversations, make your value visible, reduce everyday friction, and build your next steps. You’ll be thinking, writing, and making decisions throughout, with your judgment guiding the work.

Will we work on my closet?

I'll show you how I used AI on mine as a live example, and you'll get the prompt. The session itself is about your career, work, and life. The same method of putting everything on the table, sorting what earns its place, and finding combinations you hadn't seen works on all three.

Will there be a replay?

Yes. The replay is included in your $47 registration, so you can revisit the session or catch up if you cannot attend live.

What should I bring?

Bring a notebook or a place to take notes, your calendar, and a few examples from your own life: an upcoming conversation, an accomplishment you want to communicate, or a recurring task you’d like to make easier. A computer will give you room to try the exercises and build your plan.

Is the Life Design Compass included?

Yes. The guided Life Design Compass is part of your December 9 experience. It helps you clarify your goals, priorities, beliefs, and direction, refine your 90-day plan, and produce a personalized Life Design report.

What tools can I use?

Bring the AI tool you already use, if you have one. You can also work through the exercises and draft your next steps in a notebook or document. You’ll be introduced to the guided Life Design Compass during the workshop.

What is the refund policy?

All sales final.
