Beyond The Matrix: the revolution starts now

6min Read | Watch | Listen

Hey there Visionaries!

Still shaking off last week’s hit. Not slapping a label on it. Just listening to my body and giving it what it needs.

That means early nights, naps when I need ‘em, and patience while my brain screams “Go!” and my body says, “Chill, homie.”

But here’s the thing—I don’t sit still.

Even on half-charge, I’ve been moving the ball down the field.

Beyond The Matrix is taking shape faster than a glitch in the code, and honestly, I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about what we're building together.

This thing is launching with or without you... but it's gonna be way more fun with you riding shotgun.

So let me tell you what's brewing and why your future self will thank you for paying attention.

Why You Should Give All the Cares:

• New Awakening Quiz: Check your stage in the self-discovery game.

• AI for Small Biz: Webinars that put real customer pain points in your hands.

• IRL Goodness: My first speaker event, Boulevard Beats this weekend, and Soundpath around the corner.

Beyond The Matrix: No Longer Just an Idea

This project just shifted from "cool concept" to "holy crap, this is actually happening."

This week I interview John Bush.

Adding him to a lineup that's already got me shaking my head at the caliber of humans saying yes to this vision.

Each week drops concepts & custom AI tools built specifically to help you break free from the programming that's been running your life.

And I'm not talking about some woo-woo awakening fluff.

This is concrete, actionable systems for people ready to build something real outside the conventional playbook.

The folks I'm interviewing have already done the work.

They're proof that breaking free isn't just possible, it's profitable and fulfilling as heck.

First Speaking Gig: From ChatGPT Prediction to Real Stage

A few months back, I'm sitting there asking ChatGPT to map out my 5-year career path. (Don’t knock it till you try it).

You know, where do I want to be by my 50th birthday type stuff.

It spits back this detailed roadmap that includes writing a book and speaking on public stages.

I'm reading this thinking, "Yeah right, me on a stage, talking to people."

Seemed like a stretch at the time.

Three days later, I meet this dude Jose Escobar from Connected Leaders Academy.

Successful entrepreneurs making real change instead of just talking about it. Hope you will check it out.

Boulevard Beats: Conscious Music Meets Sunset Vibes

6 PM to 9 PM, perfect weather lined up.

I'm spinning alongside Willdabeast, a new friend who's dropping a chill set called "Chilldabeast" (dude has frequently played at the famous Red Rocks).

But here's what makes this one different.

I've been collecting tracks specifically for an event next week called Soundpath.

These aren't your typical party bangers.

Carefully picked sounds designed to shift something inside you while keeping your feet moving.

Music as a tool for consciousness, not just background noise.

If you're anywhere near the Northwest, this is worth the drive. Trust me on this one.

Industry AI Webinars: Deep Customer Intel Without the Guesswork

Also tested something new this week that has me pumped.

Industry-specific AI Audience training for business owners.

Let's say you're a plumber or your cousin runs a landscaping business.

I show exactly how to use AI for deep customer research in your specific field.

Just for showing up, you walk away with insane detailed insights into what your customers actually struggle with.

No more guessing what they want.

No more surveys that sit empty in people's inboxes.

You get something you can feed directly into ChatGPT and start cranking out emails and social posts that actually connect.

I've done hundreds of these customer research breakdowns.

This webinar shows small business owners how to compete with the big guys using tools they already have access to. Hit me up if your interested.

Tech Corner: Nano Banana Is Coming

The buzz right now? A new image model nicknamed Nano Banana.

What’s wild isn’t just the photo-real quality. It’s the ability to preserve an image and tweak specific details—swap a shirt, adjust the scene, change the vibe—without starting from scratch.

Translation: Photoshop might be sweating bullets. Look for public release in the coming weeks.

Today’s Takeaways:

1. Momentum Building: Beyond The Matrix interviews are locked, content is getting real, and this is happening whether you're ready or not

2. Speaking Truth: Sometimes the universe lines things up so perfectly you can't ignore the signs

3. Community Power: Sunday's Boulevard Beats brings conscious music and sunset energy together

Alright, builders and breakers...

The old systems are cracking and we're creating something better.

Something that actually works for real people living real lives.

Join me Sunday for beats, next month for the speaking gig, and keep your eyes open for Beyond The Matrix.

Your future self is counting on it.

Stay sharp and keep building,

Joshua | The Holistic Tech Wizard
