The Year of the Bot Sale is here Nov. 24 - Dec. 1, 2025!

________________________________________________

It’s the end of November, and I’ve been thinking a lot about how I want next year to feel. Not just in my business, but in my actual life—the pace, the white space, the energy I want to bring in, and the things I’m done with.

So today, I’m sharing my 3 predictions for 2026—and why I’m calling it The Year of the Bot. These aren’t just tech trends; they’re clues to how we can finally run businesses that feel lighter, more human, and more aligned.

Here’s what we’ll unpack:

• Why 2026 is the Year of the Bot—and why AI is no longer optional.
• How implementation (not more strategy) will set leaders apart.
• Why the next era belongs to the ones who know how to human.
• How AI can give you back your time, creativity, and white space.
• A behind-the-scenes look at my Year of the Bot Sale—five Human-First AI offers designed to make 2026 your most spacious year yet.

• "AI isn’t replacing us. It’s releasing us to do the work only humans can do."
• "2026 belongs to the implementers—the ones who bridge great ideas and real follow-through."
• "The next era belongs to the ones who know how to human."
• "We don’t need to be busier. We just need to be braver."

If you’ve been side-eyeing social media, this one will feel like a deep exhale. Amanda Walker—“the coach that coaches coaches” with 25+ years of experience—breaks down how to get clients in a skeptical market by building trust that sticks. We talk about why posting more isn’t the answer, what RGAs (revenue-generating activities) actually look like, and how small-buy offers + radical transparency speed up buying decisions. She also shares the real story behind taking 55 days off social while bringing in $52K, and why you’re only ever 80% certain—so ship the B+ work and move.

• Why social is a nurture channel—not your primary client source
• The trust recession (and how to sell with transparency)
• RGAs: the under-the-iceberg moves that actually create revenue
• How small-buy offers accelerate trust + conversions
• Messaging in 2025: hyper-specific who + problem
• The mindset reframe: you’re only ever 80% certain—decide and move

Ever feel yourself outsourcing your power to the next course, coach or hack? Same.

In this conversation with certified coach Carly Clark Zimmer, we dig into how to rebuild self-trust so you can make clear, grounded business decisions without the constant second-guessing. We unpack why overthinking drains you more than doing, how parts work (IFS) creates internal harmony, and the simple (not easy) practice that unlocks clarity: spaciousness.

You’ll hear real talk on comparison traps, sunk-cost stubbornness, and how to know when to keep going vs. pivot.

Plus, Carly’s free tool—the Five-Minute Laser Coach—to spark a quick breakthrough.

• Why entrepreneurs outsource self-trust—and how to take it back
• The difference between thinking about doing vs. doing (and why thinking is often more exhausting)
• Parts work/IFS in plain English: letting every “instrument” in your inner orchestra be heard
• A simple decision filter: priorities, capacity, context
• When to stick with a strategy vs. press pause on what isn’t converting
• Practicing intuitive decision-making (yes, even on “what’s for dinner”)

>>MEET CARLY<<
