Hey community —
Before Episode 1 drops, I wanted to do something a little different. I wanted to let Nora and Nick introduce themselves.
They are the AI Team of The Notebook — a new podcast series that lives right here, exclusively in this community. They are AI. Fully, completely, transparently artificial intelligence. And I built them that way on purpose.
Here's why.
I know most of you don't have 45 quiet minutes to sit down and read every blog post I write. You're managing school pickups, homework battles, therapy appointments, IEP meetings, work, and somewhere in there — yourself. The Notebook exists so you can catch my content on the commute, during dishes, on the walk you needed to clear your head.
Nora and Nick take my latest content, learn it inside and out, and walk you through it the way two people who genuinely care about it would talk about it. They're warm. They're honest. Nick asks the questions you're probably thinking but didn't want to ask. Nora keeps it grounded in the research.
And then — because this community runs on integrity — they come back with an addendum. A live, warm, lightly funny correction of a few things I caught when I listened back.
That is the perfectly imperfect principle in real time. Not just as a talking point. As actual practice.
Press play. Then come back and introduce yourself in the comments.
Tell me your name, how many kids you have, and one thing that brought you here. That's it. Just start there.
I read every single one.

P.S. Did you catch anything Nora and Nick got wrong before the addendum? Drop it in the comments. We are building this together.
