AI for PMs: Turn Behavioral Data into Decisions You Can Actually Ship [6/26/2026] (Recording)
**GIVEAWAY FOR LIVE ATTENDEES: FREE SEAT IN OUR AI BUILDER PROGRAM ($999 value)** After this session, you will know how to use behavioral data to build a product decision framework that stakeholders will actually approve and ship. We will cover how to structure AI-generated insights so they translate into prioritization decisions, how to identify which behavioral signals are worth instrumenting in the first place, and how to communicate data-backed recommendations to cross-functional teams without losing them in the analysis. Attending live means you can describe your specific product context and hear how that changes the approach, because the right framework for a B2B enterprise product looks different than one built for consumer growth. The coach works on these problems daily and will be sharing the reasoning patterns that separate decisions that ship from ones that stall in review.

October Series - Finding Career Clarity (Session 1)
Most job seekers never take the time to define what they truly want from their next role. Instead, they rush into applications, hoping something will stick. This is the “career discovery” phase—your golden circle, your why. It’s about understanding what lights you up, what you jump out of bed for, and what your purpose is. These are tough questions, but they are essential. Skipping this step leads to wasted time and missed opportunities. The cost of not doing a self-inventory or clarifying your vision is that your job search becomes scattered and inefficient. Taking stock of your skills is a key part of this process. By getting clear on your direction, you set yourself up for a focused and effective search. Think of this as writing your playbook or creating your map before you set out on your journey.
