An obviously wrong answer is easy to catch. Stale context is harder because it was once true.
Mercury is retrograde from October 24 through November 13, 2026. I use the period as a reflective framework for returning to the work with more patience and attention. This episode turns that reflection into a practical AI reset.
In this episode:
- Re-read consequential and customer-facing AI output
- Revisit tools you already own before adding another one
- Review the website, emails, automations, and promises your business is repeating
- Reconcile AI activity with time, revenue, and useful outcomes
- Retrain the context by updating the sources and teaching AI what changed
- Reclaim the decisions that still need human judgment
- Run the entire reset on one recurring workflow
