Dance floors, AI co-workers, and getting pummeled by the biggest guy

6min Read | Watch | Listen

Hey there Visionaries!

Wednesday night I drove down to Seattle for an electronica show.

Packed room.

An artist named Habitaat came up from the Bay Area.

My best friend and I grabbed dinner, played some ping pong, then posted up in the venue.

Here's what hit me.

I looked around that room and not a single person cared about the politics of the person next to them.

Nobody sizing each other up.

Nobody performing.

People were just moving. Together.

When the bass drops and the whole room catches the same breakdown, something locks in.

Everybody gets to feel like they belong to something without proving a damn thing.

No teams. No sides.

Just humans on the same wavelength, dancing their own dance.

Everybody's just... vibing.

You might think that's trivial. Hippies getting together and wiggling.

But the amount of healing and raw self-expression that happens in those rooms is something this world is starving for right now.

I told both artists that night: with AI bolted onto every corner of our lives and screens eating more of our waking hours, these pockets of reality are only going to grow in value.

Where humans take the stage, take risk, and build something live for a live audience.

Robots aren't taking that from us.

So here's my challenge.

Even if electronic music isn't your thing, go catch a live show.

A local band. A small venue.

Get out of your head and into a room where nobody cares what side of the aisle you're on.

That's the natural human state. We just forgot.

Why You Should Give All the Cares:

• AI That Actually Does Stuff: My upcoming workshop shows you how to stop being a copy-paste monkey and start handing real tasks to AI.

• Know Thyself (For Real): This week in Beyond The Matrix, we're tackling the question most people can't answer: "What do you want?"

• New Gym, New Bruises: My client Andrew just opened Endurance Jiu-Jitsu and I got my butt handed to me on day one.

From Chatbot to Co-Worker: The Workshop

Let me be straight with you.

You know the drill with ChatGPT.

Ask a question. Get a wall of text. Copy it. Paste it somewhere else. Reformat it. Fix the robot parts. Repeat.

A text generator with extra steps.

On April 1st (and no, I'm not fooling around), I'm running a 90-minute live workshop.

"From Chatbot to Co-Worker."

I'm going to show you AI that plugs into your actual tools and takes action.

Sends emails. Updates your calendar. Reads your files. Does the work.

No coding. No command line. No computer science degree.

This is the same system I run my business on every day.

There's a tool called Cowork that rewired how I operate.

Instead of prompting AI and then manually hauling the output between apps, I delegate.

"Draft the follow-up email to Karen about the project timeline and drop it in my drafts."

And it does. In Gmail. With the right context. In my voice.

Different animal.

Here's what the 90 minutes covers:

• The Map (20 min): Difference between Chat, Cowork, and Code. When to use each. How to shift from prompter to manager.

• The Build (40 min): I open Cowork, share my screen, you watch AI connect to real tools and finish real tasks. Live.

• The Unlock (30 min): Scheduled tasks, a peek at Claude Code, the AI Memory System, and live Q&A.

You also get the full replay, a Notion guidebook, and my AI Memory System workshop replay ($97 value) baked into your ticket.

$149. Less than one hour of private coaching. Less than the AI subscriptions collecting dust in your browser tabs.

Beyond The Matrix: Quick Update

This week in BTM we're working through the holistic self-assessment module.

The short version: building a system to figure out what you actually believe, where your life contradicts those beliefs, and how to close the gap.

Started with a question someone asked me in my 30s, coming out of a decade-long drug fog: "What do you want?"

I had no answer. That moment kicked off everything I now teach in this program.

Saturday is our fourth weekly community integration call. Door's still open if you want in.

Mat Burns and Family Jiu Jitsu

My client Andrew just opened the doors at Endurance Jiu Jitsu.

I got to take his first class.

Got paired with the biggest dude in the room. Practiced takedowns. Got sweaty. Got humbled.

And I got to that point where my brain just couldn't think anymore. That's where the real learning happens. Not in your head. In your body.

I'm looking forward to bringing my family in. It's a family jiu jitsu gym, so my littles can learn, my wife can learn, and we can grow and gain discipline together as a family.

Shout out to Andrew for getting his business open. I look forward to years of success with that one.

Today’s Takeaways:

1. Get Out and Move: Live music, live events, live humans. Online will still be there when you get back.

2. Stop Copy-Pasting: April 1st workshop. Prompting to delegating. 90 minutes, $149, no coding. Save My Spot

3. Know Thyself: BTM's holistic self-assessment module is live. Door's open. Join BTM

That's the wrap.

Go catch some live music. Get on the mat. Ask yourself what you actually want.

And if you're ready to stop babysitting your AI, I'll see you April 1st.

Stay grounded and free,
