Who it's for
You keep hearing about AI. This is where you start using it.

This isn't a lecture about the future of AI. Each Friday you bring your own phone or computer, and we set up one thing that takes real work off your plate. By the end of each session it's working.

Busy parents

You're juggling school emails, calendars, meals, activities and appointments, and you want some of that handled.

Entrepreneur parents

You run a business or a side hustle on top of a household, and you want both to take less of your time.

No tech background needed

If you can use a phone and send an email, you can do this. We go step by step and help you on your own screen.

Muse, Meta's personal AI agent.

Muse does tasks for you, like emails, forms, shopping, booking and planning, and it asks before sensitive actions. We use it as the main tool all five weeks. You'll also see how it compares to ChatGPT-style tools, so you know when to use which.

  • Free to start, no subscription required. The free plan is enough for this class.
  • Works on iPhone, Android, the web and Mac.
  • Available in Canada.
  • You must be 18 or older with a Meta account.

Muse is a product of Meta. This class is independent and not affiliated with or endorsed by Meta.

The 5 weeks
Every week ends with one thing set up and working.

Five live Fridays, 12:15 to 12:45 PM ET, with no class on Nov 20. Thirty focused minutes each, and each session builds on the last.

Week 1
Fri, Nov 6

Set up Muse and hand off your first chores

Get Muse running on your phone or computer, go through the privacy settings together, and learn what you should never share with an AI. Then hand it a few real chores from your own week.

Set up and working: Muse is set up, your privacy settings are where you want them, and it has done its first tasks for you.
Week 2
Fri, Nov 13

The family calendar and the school email pile

Use Muse to work through school emails, pull out the dates and forms that matter, draft replies and plan the family week.

Set up and working: A weekly routine for the family calendar and school email that you can repeat each week.
Week 3
Fri, Nov 27

Meals, groceries and selling on Marketplace

Plan the week's meals, turn them into a grocery list and let Muse handle the shopping legwork, checking with you before it buys anything. Then clear out the kids' outgrown stuff: snap a few photos and Muse helps you write the Facebook Marketplace listing, set a fair price and draft replies to buyers. You post it and you decide who gets it.

Set up and working: A weekly meal plan and grocery list you can reuse, plus your first Marketplace listing ready to post.
Week 4
Fri, Dec 4

Kids' activities, appointments and bookings

Research activities, compare options and book appointments with Muse doing the searching and the forms. You stay in control of every booking.

Set up and working: Your own way of booking activities and appointments with Muse, tried on something real.
Week 5
Fri, Dec 11

Your business or side hustle, plus your weekly routine

Point Muse at your business or side hustle: emails, forms and planning. Then put everything together into a weekly time-saving routine built around your family.

Set up and working: A written weekly routine you keep using after the class ends.
How it works
A hands-on workshop, not a webinar.

Live on Google Meet

A small group with cameras on. You work on your own phone or screen, and you get help with your setup as we go.

On your calendar within a day

After you pay, Donny sends you a Google Calendar invite for all five Fridays with the Meet link, within one business day.

One result each week

Every session ends with something set up and working in your own life, not a list of ideas to try later.
