I’m a big believer that using AI *well* can actually open up new avenues to better serve your clients.

I share a lot of the behind the scenes in my weekly newsletter 📧

Andddd lucky for you I’m also hosting a masterclass on October 20th at 12pm ET called “Turn AI into one of your most valuable assets”.

We’re going beyond using AI for menial tasks. I’ll show you how to set up your text generation tool of choice (ie Claude/ChatGPT/ Perplexity etc) around your business and train it to handle the repeatable work that doesn’t require you, freeing you up to actually move your vision forward. by @powerofwhypodcast

Ariana shares a concept from writer Cory Doctorow. A traditional centaur has a human head directing a horse’s body, with people at the helm and the tool supplying horsepower.

She shares that we’re seeing that flip into a “reverse centaur,” where the machine sets the tasks and people get reduced to checklists, audits, and optimizing even their vacations around it.

What do you think?

If you’ve become the person managing an estate after a loss and don’t know where to start, this clip from Ariana Lavelli’s episode is for you.

About Ariana:

Ariana Lavelli is a solutions engineer at a major technology company, with a background in accounting from Binghamton University and a start at KPMG before she moved into tech.

In 2023, she became her mother’s caregiver through a terminal diagnosis, then the family’s default executor after her mother’s death. She was untangling probate and estate administration with no roadmap. And now, she’s now building Light and Ari, a grief and end-of-life support company designed to be the guide she didn’t have.

Her professional services organization is designed to be a point person for the legal referrals, the checklist, and the harder pre-loss conversations about assets and downsizing. And her framework is built directly from what she had to figure out for her own family.
What’s one conversation about assets or end-of-life wishes you’ve been putting off having with someone you love?

As someone who has been in the tech space for years, supporting businesses with their tech solutions, Ariana foresees that LLMs and frontier models will commoditize within the next three years, leaving human creativity and human-focused feedback loops as the only real differentiator left for a business.

She compares the current AI rush to the 2017 cryptocurrency FOMO. And what we’re both seeing is the desire businesses have to implement AI immediately while skipping the unglamorous part first! Which is getting their data harmonized enough for AI to actually work with.

We are both proponents of empowering humans to integrate AI where it makes sense to augment their own creatively and expand their capacity.

Ariana @thelightandari names the exact phrase she wants people to stop asking when someone they love is grieving: “how can I help you?” Instead, she offers alternatives so you’re not overwhelming your loved one with yet another decision.

“My mom saved her entire life, never got to cash out, never got to her 65th birthday, never got to even use Medicare, which is literally what she sold in her business.

She didn’t get to experience the benefits of those things”.

Ariana shares how her world view shifted on experiences, when she lost the person she loved most.

The labor force participation rate just hit a new low, and Cali breaks down why. Retirements, caregiving gaps affecting men and women both, and a shrinking pipeline are colliding at once, and it’s set to accelerate over the next five years.

Cali breaks down the moment @oprah and @emmagrede were under fire for her comments about balance, and why the real conversation isn’t balance at all. It’s fit, and fit changes as your life changes.

Cali names a structural problem baked into most companies: the only way up is often through management, even for people who are better suited to stay hands-on experts.

She connects this to a bigger shift too, since managers are now leading AI agents alongside people, with no training for either.

If your company is tracking AI usage numbers and still can’t say what’s actually being produced, this clip from @caliwilliamsyost episode is for you.

About Cali: Cali Williams Yost is the Founder and CEO of Flex+Strategy Group, a futurist called “one of the most sophisticated thinkers” on the transformation of work by The New York Times.

She started the firm in 1998 after watching a top performer leave the workforce, and has spent nearly three decades helping organizations like BDO USA, Stanford, and the Gates Foundation build the operating architecture behind high performance.

In this episode, Cali connects the AI adoption mistake she sees today to the same one companies made with return-to-office policies. And starting with the tool or the location, never the work.

What would change if your team started with the work first?
