I wasn't supposed to stop running. I walked out of my own wedding, drove until my car died on the shoulder of a highway outside a town I'd never heard of, and stood there in a dirty wedding dress, laughing at the sky like a woman who'd finally lost everything — and liked it. Then a motorcycle slowed beside me. The rider didn't speak. He just handed me a helmet. Gideon doesn't talk. Not about where he comes from. Not about the guilt that carved the silence into him. He watches, he protects, and he disappears before anyone gets close enough to ask why. But I'm not the kind of woman who lets...

Most professionals using AI are still doing it the hard way. They prompt. They wait. They copy the output somewhere useful. They trigger the next step manually.

Not the version that lives in developer documentation, but the version available right now in tools most professionals are already paying for, without writing a single line of code. Four workflow types that genuinely deliver...

Every month your competitors stay manual, your structural advantage compounds. Most businesses are still adopting AI the way the market said to start two years ago—pick one process, automate it, see what happens. That advice was correct then. It is now the constraint.

They're the ones rebuilding the operating model underneath the tools — and the gap between them and everyone else is where the competitive moat of the next decade is forming right now.

"The First Battle of Bull Run" (the name used by Union forces), also known as the "First Battle of Manassas" (the name used by Confederate forces), was fought on July 21, 1861 in Prince William County, Virginia, just north of the city of Manassas and about 25 miles west-southwest of Washington, D.C.

From a past that won’t stay buried. From a monster who doesn’t take no for an answer. And the closer she gets to me, the more ...
