AI this, AI that

So this is a bit of an experiment.

I've been working with AI for about 3yrs now, built a few things with it, talked to friends and my network about how to actually grow with it, sat with businesses trying to figure out wha they should do with AI.

I'm involved in AI in education too.

And at this point I've had basically the same conversation about AI so many times with different people that I think there's more demand for it than there is time for it, despite so many "AI consultants" out there.

I feel there are people who know a lot about AI and there are people that just use it when they need to search for something. But there's a massive gap in the middle.

So I want to open up a couple of free slots a week, 30 or 45 mins, for anyone who wants to talk about this stuff. You don't need to be technical, you don't need to be an "AI person," you just need a question. Could be about your business, could be about your job, could be about nothing in particular, doesn't matter.

If enough people actually want this I'll turn it into something regular. If not, no harm done, I'll have had a few good conversations either way.

First come first served for now. Comment only please, no DMs.

Does your environment dictate your energy or do you control it?

In busy cities, the city's hustle/bustle can often end up programming our habits and draining our frequency. It is so easy to get caught in a loop of reaction rather than creation.

But for me Dubai is different. It offers whatever people want. And if it doesn't exist, it encourages people to build it. Dubai is a place for everyone.

I started this space because I wanted a local-ish community dedicated to the actual work of breaking old patterns and elevating our daily experience.

Whether you are into rewiring your mindset, the science of consciousness, state management, or just want a space to discuss the breakthroughs you've had through meditation, coaching, or something else entirely, this is for us.

I would love to know what is working for you right now. What is one intentional shift: a morning visualisation, a change in your physiology, or a specific daily habit, that has genuinely rewired how you experience life and work in the UAE?

Has a stranger's energy ever completely shifted your day?

I now deliberately smiling at everyone I make eye contact with, and the shift in my own frequency is massive. What small, free things do you do to raise the vibration around you?

What is the best thing you've done for your mindset?

For me I don't think its been just one thing. Its been a mixture of reading, coaching calls, mindset events, Youtube videos, breath workshop (only singular as I've only been to one) and probably a bunch of others.

But I think the thing I found most useful is being intentional about my state every day, first thing in the morning. Keen to see what others have done and found

The power of a smile

Everyone should smile, a simple smile at everyone you meet? Doormen, reception staff, delivery drivers, that person you pass on a street who you make eye contact with.

he number of times I just say hello or just a small smile - I just love brightening someone's day with something that costs nothing

UAE businesses of all sorts

Several times a week I will be in contact with the business in some way. Mostly as a customer or potential customer.

Cafes, real estate companies, restaurants, gyms, cleaning companies, maintenance companies, hotels, and that's just the last 1-2 days.

I'm always thinking about how good the person is that I'm talking to - front of desk staff, doormen, the broker, the engineer.

And so often I'll find either really good staff, or ones that are not very good. I wonder whether the business owner knows about the either.

I wonder if the staff themselves know or even care.

Sometimes if someone's really good, I'd love a way to be able to tell the owner. And even when my experience has been bad, if I was the owner of a business (and I am), I'd love to know this directly.

The ability for a business owner to understand what the experience is like for a customer is invaluable. Do business owners actually look for this sort of feedback now?

I'm in Dubai - where can I meet people into mindfulness and related things?

I'm looking for people who are not just coaches but maybe they've been through coaching or maybe they're on the journey of in a work.

It would be good to have regular catch-ups or coffees where we can meet and talk with like-minded people

Should being asked for submission of Emirates ID before a viewing be worrying?

For the first time yesterday I was asked to send my Emirates ID to an email address before a viewing for a rental property could be booked in.

Is this normal?
