once a month · online · free
What’s changing, what matters, and what you can safely ignore.
The next date goes out by email before it goes anywhere else.
An hour where none of us are keeping up is the starting assumption.
AI is moving faster than anyone can reasonably track while also running a business. So once a month I sit down with a room of people in the same position and go through what actually changed, what it means for the way you work, and what you can ignore without falling behind.
Anyone telling you they have all of this figured out is selling you something. I’ll tell you when I don’t know. Then I’ll go find out and bring it back the next month.
I’d rather build it around what you’re actually stuck on than guess — which is what the question box below is for.
The real shifts, not the press releases. What shipped, what it costs, what it means if you’re running a small team. If something deserves a closer look I’ll pull it up on screen and we’ll go through it live.
A single topic, taken slowly, rather than five skimmed. I’m planning to walk through how I set up a second brain — the folder, the one document, the brief that shows up in the morning — but if the questions point somewhere else, they win.
Open floor. Bring the thing you keep meaning to figure out and haven’t. Half-formed is fine — “I don’t even know what to ask” is a real question and I get it a lot.
We end on a single thing to go and try, not a reading list.
Treat the clock as a plan, not a contract.

Tell me now and it changes what I prepare.
Send the question exactly as it exists in your head. If a few of you send the same thing, that becomes the middle twenty minutes.
You don’t have to have a ticket to send one.
Got it — thank you.
Your mail app should be opening with the question ready to send — hit send and it lands in my inbox. I read every one of these. If it shapes the session I’ll say so on the call.
Nothing opened? Just write to Frances@camino5.com.
Twenty years running digital launches taught me how to turn ambitious ideas into plans a real team can use — from global brand launches to founder-led businesses. I cofounded Camino5, where making the ambitious thing practical, human, and ready for the real world is still the job.
AI has my attention because the digital ground moved again. How people and brands get found is being rewritten, and I’m learning it the way I learned the last shift: by building it. Tools change and people don’t, so I teach the part that lasts.
That session has wrapped. There will be more.
Leave your email and the next date reaches you before it is posted anywhere else — along with the walk-through from the session once it is finished.
No schedule, no feed. I write when there is something worth your time.
You’re on the list.
Nothing else to do — the next date will land in your inbox.
Come with the thing you’ve been meaning to ask.
