Hi Reader,

I use a second brain every day.

It is where I keep the notes, links, decisions, projects, and loose ends I do not want to carry around in my head. When I ask AI for help, it can start with the context I have already built instead of making me explain the same work again.

On Tuesday, August 11, I am hosting a hands-on workshop in Spokane Valley to help you build your own.

Bring your laptop, the AI tool you already use, and one real piece of work you need to manage. We will:

• set up Obsidian as a personal, searchable workspace;
• organize the information you want your AI to understand;
• connect it to Codex Work, Claude Coworkers, Codex, or Claude Code;
• give it a first useful job using your own material.

You do not need to know Obsidian or code. Beginners and experienced AI users are both welcome.

Building a Second Brain for Your AI

This is not a system I pulled together just for a workshop. It is what I use every day to keep my projects moving and give AI the context it needs.

P.S. Bring the work you already carry around in your head. We will turn part of it into a system you can keep using: https://optimizationdoc.com/events/buildasecondbrain/
