Value-First AI Daily teaser - Sep 23, 2026 - A Truly UNBOUND Claude Skill
September 24, 2026
Today was the first time we brought a guest onto Value-First AI Daily, live — Nico and I have been talking about opening the show up like this, and Sarah Lane-Hawn was the first.
She's HubSpot's 2024 Admin of the Year, and she's spent the last two years turning her own revenue-ops pattern-recognition into AI-assisted solutions instead of building an agency around it.
Early on she said something I haven't stopped thinking about: "y'all, y'all tend to talk like up here about AI and the rest of us are like, yes, AI, artificial intelligence is what they are talking about." That's the real gap — not the technology, the vocabulary.
Then she told us how she actually built her own AI-native skill file. 3:30 in the morning, her baby had just woken her up, and instead of losing the thought she turned it into something her own AI could reference for good. Then she made it shareable, because, in her own words, "why should someone else have to do that if I already did it?"
She's said this next line before, on a different show, and she said it again today: "your AI is not my AI, like at all, like not remotely at this point." The reason, in her own words right after: typing is still faster for her because she hasn't built the structure behind it yet. Once that structure's built, you get to just speak and have it understood — that's what it actually buys you.
She built that skill file from 35 HubSpot UNBOUND 2026 sessions — her own count, on her own page: https://46016326.hs-sites.com/unbound-2026-claude-skill
