Don’t fall for it.

Don’t fall for the slow motion videos and crisp photos.

Being a keynote speaker looks a LOT like this 😂👇

And no, I won’t rehearse in front of friends as my mock audience. I’ll take the dead-eyed stare of a wall or window any day.

The best part about this whole story is that the magic really happened

when I shut my mouth

and let the audience find its own voice.

Humanifestos are imperfect, raw, words-in-progress that allow you to stay clear on what matters to you when AI (and 27 other crises) keeps pulling the rug from underneath normality.

The way they’re resonating with professionals and execs is telling me a lot about how self and communal reflection isn’t a luxury, it’s like oxygen for the whole system.

Write Your Humanifesto is going worldwide! 🌎

Last month I keynoted for 500 school principals in the Dominican Republic with @unoi_mexico — and next week I'll be in São Paulo with guiding their community of educators through the experience of articulating what makes them irreplaceably human in the age of AI.

Who should I meet in São Paulo working at the intersection of tech and tenderness? Please connect us!

The biggest thing AI has done so far isn't generate text or video or image or deepfakes.

It's forced 8 billion people to ask the question artists never stopped asking:

what does it mean to be human?

That's not a threat to poetry. That's a renaissance.

Here's what I mean.

This Wednesday, come Write Your Humanifesto.

In 60-min you'll get ridiculously clear about where you're going this year. I did the research and doing this reflection work in writing will save you about 78,900 hours of overthinking and doubting.

You'll leave with a crisp, bright personal manifesto to use as a compass for your career, for your personal life, an to navigate the spaces between right and wrong.

Caring for the small things is the opposite of numbing. Make tiny art, put flowers on your kitchen table, text a friend: they're gateway drugs to hope and action.

I know it's tempting, but let's not hand over the name of our countries and nations to those who'd flatten them into bumper stickers for hate.

A name contains multitudes and there's power in numbers.

Don't hit the ground running this year.

Do this instead 👇

What if instead of heaving your Winter-soft self out of the coziness of the holidays to launch into a sprint with no warm up on week two of 2026 while most other mammals are literally hibernating, you… grew deeper roots?

The kind that make you grow 10 feet tall
and stay solid when the oncoming waves of AI hit?

Because the real question isn't "How do I keep up?" but
"What is the flavor of intelligence that is so unique to me
that nothing can outpace it?”

I'm hosting a free 60-minute workshop on Wednesday January 21st where you'll discover just that.

It's called Write Your Humanifesto:
capture your irreplaceable value
in a machine-shaped world,
and it's my gift to you.

Join us here: https://luma.com/u0gdvfrs

Here's what makes it different:
you'll use AI in a completely new way -
as a collaborator that reveals
the poetry hiding in your words.
Then you'll distill that into a short manifesto
that becomes your compass for 2026.

No AI tutorial. No productivity hacks.

Just a practice that reconnects you
to your irreplaceable intelligence and shows you
how to lead from that place this year.
Not running, but strutting with a grin that says
“I know my genius.”

This workshop is also a taste of the Wild Intelligence Immersion that I'm hosting in Costa Rica this May - to which yes, you're also invited. This is your chance to experience what 7 days spent reclaiming your untamable wisdom with an intimate group of paradigm-shifters will feel like 🔥
