Ready to Transform How Work Gets Done with AI?

Next Cohort:  June 1, 2026


This program teaches you how to think in systems, so you know exactly what to build and why. You’ll learn how to analyze, optimize, and redesign your business processes and workflows so AI actually works for you. 

Week 1

Map, Analyze & Understand Your Core Workflows

Step back and see how your work actually gets done - end to end - so you can uncover inefficiencies and build a system you can improve, scale, and eventually automate.

Detailed Description

👩🏻‍💻  Map one core workflow and identify where time, effort, and handoffs are slowing things down.


In Week 1, we lay the foundation for everything that follows by creating clarity.

Before you can improve or automate anything, you need to understand how your work actually gets done, step by step. Whether you’re running a business or working within a team, you’ll map one core workflow, analyze how work flows, and identify where time, effort, and resources are being lost.

This week is about shifting from reacting in the day-to-day to seeing your work as a system, so you can make smarter, more strategic decisions moving forward.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Map any workflow using proven frameworks and templates
  • Identify bottlenecks, delays, and unnecessary back-and-forths
  • Define clear inputs, outputs, and key decision points
  • Analyze workflows to uncover inefficiencies and improvement opportunities
  • Visualize your processes in a way that’s easy to optimize and scale

By the end of the week, you’ll have:

  • A complete process map for one key workflow
  • A clear understanding of where time and effort are being lost
  • A list of high-impact improvement opportunities
  • A repeatable framework to map and analyze other workflows

Week 2

Optimize Your Workflows & Fix Your Tool Stack

Fix inefficiencies and align your tools, so you don’t waste time automating broken or outdated processes.

Detailed Description

👩🏻‍💻  Improve how your workflow runs and make sure your tools actually support it, before adding automation or AI.


In Week 2, you’ll take your mapped workflow and make it more efficient, scalable, and ready for automation.

Before introducing AI, you’ll focus on improving how your process currently works - removing unnecessary steps, simplifying handoffs, and reducing friction. At the same time, you’ll evaluate whether your current tools are helping or holding you back.

This week is about strengthening your foundation, so when you do introduce automation or AI, it actually works.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Apply the “Eliminate, Delegate, Automate” framework to improve workflows
  • Identify steps that can be removed, simplified, or restructured
  • Redesign workflows to reduce friction and improve efficiency
  • Audit your current tools to identify gaps and inefficiencies
  • Evaluate tools based on how well they fit your workflow
  • Compare similar tools and make confident decisions
  • Avoid common mistakes when selecting or switching tools

By the end of the week, you’ll have:

  • A more efficient, streamlined version of your core workflow
  • A clear understanding of where your current tools are helping or slowing you down
  • A refined tool stack aligned with how your workflow actually runs
  • A decision framework you can use to evaluate tools going forward

Week 3

Identify Where AI Actually Fits in Your Workflows

Apply a structured decision framework to determine where AI can create real impact in your business or work.

Detailed Description

👩🏻‍💻  Break down your workflow step-by-step to determine where AI adds value and what it needs to do the job effectively


In Week 3, you’ll take your optimized workflow and begin applying AI strategically.

Instead of jumping into tools or automations, you’ll learn how to decide what should actually be handled by AI and what should remain human. This is where most people get it wrong, leading to broken systems, poor outputs, and wasted time.

You’ll use a structured decision-making framework to evaluate each step in your workflow and determine where AI can create real value.

You’ll also begin preparing your workflow so it’s ready for AI, defining the inputs, context, and instructions required for AI to perform effectively.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Apply a structured framework to evaluate where AI fits in your workflow
  • Decide which tasks should be handled by AI vs humans
  • Identify where AI adds the most value and where it doesn’t
  • Define the context, inputs, and outputs AI needs to perform effectively
  • Structure clear instructions for both AI and human execution
  • Prepare workflows so they are ready for AI-driven automation
  • Avoid common mistakes that cause AI implementations to fail

By the end of the week, you’ll have:

  • A clear breakdown of AI vs human responsibilities in your workflow
  • AI-ready workflows with defined inputs, context, and structure
  • A prioritized list of high-impact AI opportunities
  • Confidence in deciding where and how to apply AI effectively

Week 4

Understand How Systems & Automation Actually Work (Without the Jargon)

See how workflows, tools, and data connect, so you can understand how automation actually works without needing to be technical.

Detailed Description

👩🏻‍💻  Learn how systems operate behind the scenes so you can connect the dots between your workflow, tools, and automation


In Week 4, everything starts to come together.

You’ll learn how automation systems actually work behind the scenes, so you can understand how your workflows, tools, and data connect without needing to write code or become technical.

This is where most people feel overwhelmed, but instead of diving into complex tools, you’ll focus on understanding the core building blocks that every system uses.

Once you see how these pieces fit together, you’ll be able to think in workflows, understand how systems operate, and confidently navigate technical conversations or implementation decisions.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Understand the core building blocks of any automation system
  • Break workflows into steps, logic, and flow control
  • See how tools connect and communicate with each other
  • Understand how data moves through your workflows
  • Learn key concepts like variables, inputs, and outputs
  • Recognize how systems process and transform data

Now that you understand your processes, have optimized your workflows, and know how AI and systems work, you’ll start applying the right tools, automation approaches, and AI capabilities to your workflow.

Instead of focusing on how to build, you’ll focus on how to design, so you can create a clear system that connects your workflow, tools, and AI into something that actually works.

You’ll also explore different ways to implement your system depending on your goals, technical comfort level, and available resources.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Apply AI and automation tools to your workflow design
