The Founders Inner Circle

Knowledge is not power.
Applied knowledge is power.

The Sprint gave you the mindsets, the tools, and the frameworks.
The Inner Circle is where you put them to work, every week, until they compound.

You walked out of the Sprint knowing what AI can do for your business. The Circle is where you actually do it.

Every month you get the newest thinking in AI, simplified to practical applications you can benefit from this week. Every week you get the office hours, where you bring your challenges and opportunities and leave with solutions.

The progress is real. So is the drop-off.

Most founders walk out of the Sprint with a lot of clarity and having made significant progress. But there is also a lot, which means a lot gets forgotten or not applied. The weeks get busy, the tools get buried, and accountability falls back on you.

That is the gap. Knowing what AI can do is a long way from doing it. The Circle closes that gap by design. Every week you get reminded, shown the next step, and pushed to actually put the tools to work. Your results keep getting sharper. What you learn becomes your new behavior.

AI will not slow down so you can catch up. The Circle is where you stay current without making it your full-time job.

What you get

Two things. The newest thinking in AI, made simple enough to use. And a room full of support.

1. The latest AI thinking, simplified

Every month, one live workshop on an AI strategy that is working right now. Led by Tom, Steve, or Christine, built around the friction founders are running into now.

  • Topic and working agenda shared at least one week before the session, so you walk in knowing what we are covering and how we are going to work it
  • One AI strategy you can apply in your business that week, picked because it is working now
  • Live, with hot seats from your peers, so you watch it get applied to a founder's actual problem
  • The tools, prompts, and resources built for that topic, yours to keep
  • Recorded, so a missed session is never a missed strategy

2. Weekly office hours with Christine

60 minutes every week. Same agenda every month, so you always know what you are walking into.

Week 1, the week of the monthly workshop: The full hour on the workshop. Questions, how to apply it in your business, and where you are getting stuck.

Weeks 2, 3, and 4 each follow the same agenda:

  • Welcome
  • One curated tip you can use this week
  • The month's recurring topic
  • Open Q&A and live support on what you are working on

For Inner Circle members only, separate from the office hours that run during the Sprint cohort.

3. The Insider Tip

One practical AI strategy you can apply this week, sent only to this group.

Who the Inner Circle is built for

Built for

  • Founders who use AI as a thinking partner in how they run their business and want to keep growing that muscle
  • Founders who know 30 days can create a massive shift, and that the shift only compounds with ongoing application
  • Founders who put what they learn to work between sessions, not only during them
  • Founders who want to lead with AI as new tools and frameworks land every month

Not for

  • Founders who want a course to finish. The Sprint had a finish line. The Circle does not. This is an ongoing practice, not another thing to check off.
  • Founders who won't show up. The value lives in the live rooms and the weekly reps. The recordings alone won't move you.
  • Founders who haven't done the Sprint yet. Start there, then come build on it.

Questions founders ask before they join

How does the first month work?

Your free month starts at your first workshop, not the day you sign up. Workshops run on the third Wednesday of every month, so your free month begins on your first workshop and includes that live session plus the weekly office hours around it. Seven days before your first charge you get a reminder email. Cancel before then and you owe nothing. After your free month, the membership continues at the monthly or annual rate you picked at sign-up.

How is this different from the Sprint?

The Sprint is the curated base, a few key things done right in four weeks. The Circle is where you keep applying them, week after week, and add the newest thinking as AI changes. The Sprint gives you the knowledge. The Circle is where the knowledge gets used until it compounds.

Do I know what workshops are coming and what office hours cover?

Yes. Every workshop topic and working agenda goes out at least one week before the session, so you know what you are signing up for that week. Office hours follow the same agenda every month, so the room is structured and you always know what you are walking into.

What if I can't make a workshop live?

Every workshop is recorded and yours to keep. Miss one live and you watch it on your time. You never miss the strategy, and weekly office hours cover any questions that come up.

Can I switch from monthly to annual later?

Yes. Start monthly, move to annual whenever the value is obvious to you. Email Christine and we move you over at your next billing cycle.

Does it auto-renew? Can I cancel?

Yes, so you never lose access by forgetting a date. You get a reminder email before every charge, and cancel is one click, the same number of steps as joining. No call, no hoops. We only want you in if you are getting value.

Who runs office hours?

Christine Rivett runs office hours every week and keeps the room moving. The same person who ran your Sprint cohort office hours and who leads the Teams cohorts. Bring a real roadblock and you leave with a next step.

What if I'm not a Sprint Founder graduate?

The Inner Circle is built for Sprint graduates, so the room assumes the base the Sprint gives you. If you haven't done the Sprint yet, that is your starting point. Start with the Founders Sprint, and the Circle will be waiting.

The Sprint started it. This is where it keeps going.

You already know what AI can do for your business. The only question left is whether you keep using it or let it go quiet. The Circle is the room that keeps you using it, every week, with the latest thinking and the support to apply it.
