Does anyone else's brain wait until their head hits the pillow to suddenly become extremely productive?

All day: normal.

10:30pm:

Remember that thing.

What about that idea?

You should look that up.

Actually, while we're here, let's completely rethink something that wasn't even a problem six hours ago. 😂

Meanwhile I've supposedly gone to bed.

Apparently my brain did not receive the memo.

What completely unnecessary thing does YOUR brain like to think about when you're trying to sleep?

The handbag wasn’t dressed for this level of activity.

I’ve been trying to work out these AI dances, and I’ve finally got a photo moving. A few attempts, some very questionable results, and this one made the cut.

AI-generated dancing. Actual woman behind it trying to work out which button to press.

Would you try this with one of your photos?

There are a LOT of things online asking for a yes.

Join this.

Try this.

Promote this.

Sign up for this.

Apparently this one is “the next big thing” too. 😂

I'm interested in new opportunities — otherwise I wouldn't be building online in the first place.

But interested doesn't mean automatically convinced.

Before I put my name next to something, I want to understand what it actually is.

What does it cost?

How does it work?

What am I unsure about?

Would I still think it was worth looking at if nobody was trying to sell it to me?

Sometimes I'll find something I really like.

Sometimes I'll decide it's not for me.

And sometimes the answer will simply be:

I need to know more.

I'd much rather share that with you than pretend everything I discover is amazing.

One thing I've learnt using AI:

When it gives me something rubbish, my first instinct used to be:

“Well, that didn't work.”

Now I look at what I actually asked it to do.

Was I specific enough?

Did I explain what I didn't want?

Did I give it enough context to understand the result I was after?

Because “make me a good Facebook post” and:

“Write this for a woman in her 50s building online around a full-time job. Keep it conversational, don't make me sound like a coach, and give me one clear point.”
..are two very different instructions.

Same AI.

Very different starting point.

That's one of the biggest shifts I've made with it:

Before I decide the tool is useless, I check the instruction.

And sometimes the problem is sitting on my side of the keyboard. 😂

I’m becoming increasingly comfortable saying:

I don’t know yet.

I don’t know which parts of building online will turn into something worthwhile.

I don’t know which opportunities I’ll still care about six months from now.

And I definitely don’t know everything there is to know about AI.

What I can do is build.

Test things.

Pay attention.

Change my mind when something doesn’t stack up.

And share what I find along the way.

That’s really what I want Building Online at 50 to be.

Not me standing at the finish line telling everyone else how to get there.

I’m still figuring it out.

And that’s exactly why there’s something worth documenting.

If you’re building something before you feel completely ready, you’ll probably understand this page.

New week.

Fresh start.

Everything beautifully organised.

Absolutely no idea what could possibly go wrong. 😂

One thing I am changing about the way I build online is this idea that I need a perfect clear run at it.

A free day.

Everything planned.

No interruptions.

All my ducks politely standing in formation.

That’s not particularly useful when you’re building something alongside an actual life.

So this week I’m working with the time I’ve got, learning the next thing I need and continuing from there.

The ducks can sort themselves out.

Who’s building something around an already full life?

Sunday night has arrived.

And I’m choosing to ignore the fact that Monday is lurking around the corner.

In my ideal world, there’s a tropical garden, beautiful lighting, absolutely nowhere I need to be and someone else has already sorted dinner.

Naturally, I created that world with AI.

Because apparently I can imagine an entire luxury escape, but I still can’t negotiate a three-day weekend.

Monday, darling. You’re going to have to wait.

Anyone else refusing to acknowledge tomorrow just yet?

18/10/2026

Well, this is getting interesting.

I’ve been creating AI images for a while now, but today I’m testing something completely different.

An AI twin. Of me. Actually talking.

Considering I don’t particularly want to talk to a camera, you can probably see why I’m curious.

It’s another experiment in my Building Online at 50 journey. Some of these tools are brilliant. Others need a bit of work.

And yes, this video is AI-generated using my likeness.

The location is fake. The work is real.

It’s easy to look at an AI photograph and think someone just typed a few words and pressed a button.

Sometimes it really is that simple.

Other times, it’s choosing the right scene, getting the clothing right, making sure the person still looks like themselves and adjusting the little details that make an image believable.

That’s the part I find fascinating.

I’m 50, I work full-time, and I’m learning how to turn creative ideas into something worth sharing.

I’m also building Diamond Momentum with Nadine Chapman, so we can make that process easier for other people.

Not everyone wants to become a photographer, designer or professional prompt writer.

Sometimes you just want to bring an idea to life.

And that’s exactly what we’re working on.

I have expensive taste.

My location budget has other ideas.

So I created this instead.

A beautiful coastline. A rooftop pool. An outfit I’d actually wear.

No flights. No hotel booking. No photographer.

Just an idea, a selfie and a little creative direction.

That’s one of my favourite things about building with AI. I can experiment with ideas that would normally require a ridiculous amount of planning and money.

The location isn’t real. The imagination behind it is.

Would you have guessed this was AI?
