You ask AI to create something for you—a marketing email, a resume, a presentation—and it gives you... fine content. Serviceable. Professional enough. But generic. Forgettable. Sounds like every other AI-generated output you've seen. And you think: "Well, AI just isn't that creative yet." Here's the truth: The problem isn't the AI.

A Real-Time Case Study in Human-AI Augmentation January 28, 2026 Michaela Woodall, Author The Question Everyone's Asking "Doesn't AI just do the work for you?" I hear this constantly. And I get it. When you see polished prose emerge from a conversation with an AI, it looks like magic. Like the AI "did" something you couldn't do yourself. But that's not what's happening.

Executive function doesn't work for neurodivergent brains the way it does for neurotypical ones. I could SEE the vision perfectly. I just couldn't execute it. Then I discovered AI partnership

After The Navigator: Three Projects I'm Working On (And Why I Can Finally Write Them) One of the most common questions I've gotten since publishing The Navigator is: "What are you working on next?" The answer: Everything. For the first time in my life, I can actually execute on the stories I've been carrying. Not because I suddenly got smarter or more organized (I'm still neurodivergent with all the executive function challenges that come with it), but because AI partnership

When I set up the event page on this website last week, I added a countdown timer. 32 days until February 21, 2026. 32 days until I stand in front of people and read from my book. 32 days until I do something I never thought I'd do: be an author in public.
