Ep 17 - From Desperation to One System: Building Gatherd with AI to Track Everything in One Place

Ep 17 - From Desperation to One System: Building Gatherd with AI to Track Everything in One Place

In January, I lost the consulting income I'd been counting on. I had two choices: walk away from a year of hard-won learning, or build something with it. This is the honest origin story of Gatherd — the daily operating system I built with AI to put everything I was trying to track in one place. Not because I had it all figured out (I was figuring it out as I go), but because I was desperate enough to stop juggling a dozen apps, notebooks, and open tabs and finally build the one thing I actually needed. I'll walk you through what pushed me to start, what Gatherd actually does, and the moment a friend — who quietly lost 20 pounds using an early version — made me realize this wasn't just for me. If you've ever felt like you're running your business and your life in fragments, this one's for you. Curious what I built?
