AI helps you post 50 comments a day.

( they're complete garbahge )
said in my best French accent

The 1% told you to comment.

Using AI? Erm no, they did not.

It's a shortcut. But it's a shortcut straight off a cliff.

I get it. I did it once, when I first started.
( literally ONCE )

Thankfully, my friend Nick straight up called me out in the comments.

Then made a post about it.
( not singling me out, but still. oof, oof. )

I NEVER did it again.

Not because of the public drag.

But because I saw what a train wreck it was for the conversation, and my brand.

Here's the thing:

– You might be an A-Level leader.
– You might be the next Steve Jobs.
– You might be the next Pulitzer winner.
– You might actually solve my exact problem.

None of it matters Jeff, if:

– You look like you're phoning it in.
– You sound like a glorified chatbot.
– You're not fooling 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦.

Now, when it comes to AI comments?

I'm like a former smoker who found Jesus.
I freaking loathe them.

Mostly because:

– They're intellectual cotton candy. Zero substance.
– They regurgitate what I just said but never as good.
– They ask me questions I literally just answered.
– They make posts look like a bot farm.

That last one? Ruins it for everyone.

A quality comment can lead to an ICP sliding into your DMs with this gem:

"Hey Alana, saw your comment on Sarah's post about pricing psychology and had to reach out. That bit about knowing your value vs embodying it? Yeah. That's exactly where I'm stuck. Would love to chat if you're taking on clients."

𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 what a real comment can do.What are your takes?
Love 'em or loathe 'em?

Hear the algorithm update will be dingin' ya hard for them.

PS: Look for my faster-commenting tips in the comments, including an AI hack that doesn't make you look like a spam bot.

PPS: This video is NOT AI...It's actually me...It's the result of high quality writing, delivery, directing, filming, and editing. It's literally what my agency specializes in.

Dropping gems for CEOs, Executives, and Expert Founders M-F 6:30am EST.

You’re lying about time. And it’s bankrupting you.

Three months no workouts. Zero follow-ups on a $20K client. DMs stuck in drafts.

My mentor didn’t ask “why” I was so “busy.”

She just said: “Stop calling it time. Call it what it is…you’re terrified.”

Damn.

She was right.

I wasn’t short on hours. I was short on conviction.

The $20K client? I didn’t “forget” to follow up. I felt like an imposter asking for the close. So I ghosted the close instead.

The workouts? I knew staying in hustle-mode felt productive. Moving my body meant sitting with what wasn’t working.

DMs? Sending them meant being seen. And being seen meant someone might actually respond.

Here’s the thing nobody tells you about “I don’t have time”:

It’s a permission slip to stay small.

Because if you admitted the truth…

“I’m avoiding my messaging because I don’t trust it yet”
“I’m scared to follow up because what if they say no”
“I’d rather stay invisible than risk being judged”

…then you’d have to do something about it.

And doing something means discomfort.

So here’s your mirror:

Replace “I don’t have time” with “I’m choosing not to prioritize this.”

Say it out loud. Watch what breaks open.

Because the founders and executives closing $100K+ deals? They’re not managing time better than you.

They’ve just stopped lying about what they’re actually avoiding.

What are you calling “no time” that’s really just fear dressed up as productivity?

Drop it below. One sentence. I’ll tell you what I see.
