Claude Runs My Day: How I Built a Morning Command Center to Stop Holding It All in My Head
AI Queens: Smart AF AI Tools, Automation, & Business Tips with Erika StanleyShow Notes
If you're running a business, managing a household, and trying to keep up with everything in between, chances are your brain is doing a lot of heavy lifting that it shouldn't have to. Erika gets into exactly that this week, sharing the real story behind a system she built inside Claude that has genuinely changed how she starts her day.
This isn't a pretty dashboard. It's not a color-coded widget situation. It's a fully functional morning command center that pulls from her Gmail, calendar, Slack, iMessages, and meeting notes, and turns all of it into a clear, prioritized daily briefing. No more scattered Post-its. No more mental load spiral.
What we cover:
What decision fatigue actually looks like for busy women entrepreneurs (and why it's more than just being "a little overwhelmed")
How Erika built her Claude Command Center by connecting her tools and doing a full brain dump
What Claude "skills" are and how to teach your AI to run a repeatable process for you, like training a new employee on your SOPs
Why saving your AI-built systems matters, so you own them no matter what tools change
How this shift from using AI for content to using AI to relieve mental load is the real next level
This one is for anyone drowning in tabs, texts, and to-do lists with no clear picture of what actually needs to happen today. Hit play, then go talk to your AI about what's weighing you down.

Queens, if you have been telling yourself that Claude Code is for developers and not for you, this one is going to change your mind. Hope Norton spent over 20 years in telecom sales at companies like Verizon and T-Mobile before founding Norton Mobility to help small and mid-sized fleets make smarter technology decisions. She had never coded a thing. Then a former sales engineer sat her down at a Starbucks and told her to open Claude Code and brain dump her idea. One weekend later, she had built Compliance Hub, a tool that is now live on her website and helping trucking companies manage drivers, trucks, and DOT compliance in one place.
Queens, if your AI agrees with every idea you bring it, you have a problem.
Queens, running a business can feel like living on an island. The fastest way I have found to learn AI is to get in a room with other women who are learning, building, and staying curious.
Queens, what would it take for your business to keep running without you in the room?
Rebecca Liao has been building AI companies since 2014, back when getting a computer to understand plain language was still a struggle. Today she is the co-founder and CEO of Saga AI Labs, which turns well-known characters from games, sports, and consumer brands into AI agents that talk with fans around the clock. Before Saga, she led growth at a SoftBank-backed unicorn and co-founded a crypto company that grew to about $5 billion in annual volume.
