LeadGrow Virtual Events

I have a headless Mac sitting in my office. It's a box. No monitor built in. And it runs Claude Code, not the browser version, not the app. The downloaded version that lives on my hard drive.

Here's why that matters.

Claude Code on your desktop has arms and legs. It can go out, do things, come back with results. The version you're chatting with in the browser does not.

I searched six years of Help Scout emails for a specific keyword. It pulled everything into a spreadsheet. On my hard drive. Not in the cloud.

Dense communication work that used to take me four and a half to six hours now takes two.

If you have proprietary data or private client information and you're serious about using AI for your business, you need to look at this setup.

It looks like DOS. You talk to it. It talks back. And the mic doesn't glitch.

Game changer. Hope this helps.

Claude Code breakdown.

Weymo - Part 2: Will I do this again?

Watch to hear the tradeoff....and let me know what you think.

Also, if you want to learn how to use AI, or get an overview of how I'm using it right now, jump into my Claude class. Saturdays, 8 am PT.

Come with me on my first Weymo ride!

AI is everywhere. If you feel behind, or like you are stuck at a plateau, I've got you.

Teaching AI helps me get better at it. If you teach it, you know it. So it helps me uplevel.

If I can help you uplevel, I'd love to. Join me for my next Claude 101 class where we cover how to use it past chatting. If you have never used it, you will get an overview really quickly and then you will be off to the races.

We cover:
- Overview
- Projects
- How I use it in business
- Resources
- How I use it to ID processes, do outreach, streamline systems

Whatever we've got time for, we will cover in 45 minutes.

Every Saturday. 8 am PT. Come on in.

My Husband Said Most AI Efforts Fail. I Had Thoughts.

First of all, what does "fail" even mean? Is it the rollout? The training? The data parameters? That's an incredibly broad statement and broad statements get people nowhere.

Here's what I actually know: enterprises are handing people AI tools with zero training. That's not AI failing. That's implementation failing.

Before you write off AI in your organization — slow down to speed up. Figure out which part isn't working. Because I guarantee it's working somewhere. You just haven't found the right entry point yet.

We're all figuring this out together. But don't quit before you diagnose.

What's your experience been with AI rollout at your company? Tell me in the comments.

STOP hiding behind an AI mask in your communications.

People are copying AI emails straight into their send queue or having AI create the email l (bravo for connecting it and using an agent. You should be proud.) But AI copy is not your voice.

And Claude is not you. Please use it, but lean on it. If you use it without infusing who you are, people know.

I have seen over the past 6 months:
- people give incorrect information as Biblical truth because it comes from AI
- people using AI to deliver really disappointing or hurtful information via email to a team member, and it’s obviously ChattyGspeak. You lose respect of your employees when you do that.
- And of course, lots of AI sloppy information that is not double checked because people are busy or not discerning enough to know how to cross examine what they are getting back.

You have years of experience and a skill set nobody else has. When you let AI think for you, that's exactly what gets lost, and your clients andyour team can feel it.

Use Claude or AI to get there faster. Use it to build better. But use your thinking + AI output to communicate as you.

Discernment is my word for 2026. Probably through 2030 honestly. And ok, in this climate, for the rest of my life.

Are you editing your AI copy before it goes out? How about emails? Reports? Analysis? What are you seeing in your companies as this rolls out? I’d love to know.

My team flagged this today: AI Thumbnails ain’t doing so hot.

We watch clicks, conversions, behavior. It’s an obsession over here.

AI-generated posts on LinkedIn a rampant. Anyone can create generic thought leadership and mass-produced content.

Authenticity is your currency now.

Test your thumbnails - lmk how Real vs. AI perform, and if you are seeing a trend.

Have you seen those 50- or 70-page AEO reports being offered lately?

They look detailed. They sound technical. And they can make it feel like your online presence is in serious trouble.

The reality is that many of these reports can be generated by AI in just a few minutes.

That doesn't automatically make them wrong—but it also doesn't make them accurate.

A meaningful AEO audit requires much more than running a prompt. It takes understanding your business, your audience, the questions your customers actually ask, and manually verifying what shows up in search.

So before you spend money on a report, ask how it was produced.

The process behind the report matters more than the page count.
