​I Built an AI Chief of Staff Using Only My Voice and Tana

What is you could wake up each morning, chat to Tana over your morning coffee, and then when you sit down at your computer everything is organised into tasks, meetings, agendas... all done for you?

That's exactly what I'm going to show you today.

In this video I share 3 voice workflow that act like my own personal chief of staff. These workflows have completely transformed how I run my solo business:

  • The Morning Brief: Brain dump your day in 3 minutes while walking, and find everything organised when you sit down at your desk
  • The Meeting Prep Agent: Prepare for an entire day of meetings with a single voice note (agenda items automatically attached to the right meetings)
  • The Project Kick-Off: Turn a 5-minute voice brain dump into a fully structured project with tasks and notes

Plus, I share exactly how to set up these AI commands in Tana so you can copy them for your own workspace.
