AI vs. Overwhelm: Simple Tools That Actually Save You Time

Running a business is a lot—especially when you're the one wearing all the hats. Between content creation, emails, client work, and trying to stay consistent online, it's easy to feel overwhelmed.

But here's the thing: AI can actually help. Not in a complicated, techy way—but in a simple, supportive way that saves you hours each week.

Here are three tools I use (and recommend to my clients) to run things with less stress and more ease:

1. ChatGPT: Your New Content Planning Assistant

Tired of staring at a blank screen? Let ChatGPT help you brainstorm blog posts, email ideas, Instagram captions, and more.

Example prompt:
“Give me 30 days of content ideas for a mindset coach who helps women grow their confidence.”

You’ll get organized ideas that sound like you—and you can always tweak the tone to make it feel more personal.

2. Make.com: Automate the Busywork

Make connects all your favorite tools (like Airtable, Google Sheets, Gmail, and more) so you can automate the stuff you do over and over.

I use it to:

  • Auto-save form responses to Airtable

  • Send follow-up emails after someone books a call

  • Post content across social platforms

It’s like having a virtual assistant running quietly in the background.

3. Perplexity: Smarter, Faster Research

Need fast answers, content ideas, or fact-checking help? Perplexity gives you clean, AI-powered summaries without falling down a Google rabbit hole.

It’s a game-changer when you’re writing content, building a course, or creating anything educational.

The Bottom Line

You don’t need a hundred tools. You need a few smart ones that make your work easier, not heavier.

AI doesn’t replace your creativity—it supports it. So you can focus on what you really want to be doing in your business.
