WHAT IS THIS ACTUALLY ABOUT
People ask me this every time, so here is the honest answer.
It is not a tool fest. It is not a hype fest. Nobody is going to stand up and read you a list of forty apps.
It is peace, first. Peace with the time, the tech and the team.
Then it is the part nobody expects. It is sitting in a dynamic room with other owners and watching how they actually use this stuff in a real business with real payroll. Not theory. Not a case study from a company you will never be.
You walk out leveled up. You also walk out of your own headspace, which is the harder one, and you do it alongside people who were stuck in theirs.
Cannot make it in person? There is a recording, and online-live seats put you in the room while it happens.
THE ROOM
Three walls and a floor of live projection. Architects walk their own blueprints here. A hospital laid out delivery rooms on this floor before a single wall went up. On September 24 it holds business owners instead, and it will feel like it.
Third time we have run this. Nobody walks out saying "I learned a new tool." They walk out saying "I met someone." 80 percent human, 20 percent tech.
THE JOSHUA WALK
Pair up and walk the room while your Walls of Jericho come down around you, until you land on the ONE workflow you take back to your team on Monday. People still talk about this a year later.
THE PANEL
David Charlson, Finding Your Essence. Scaled a pet food business past $16M, lost nearly all of it, rebuilt around emotional health. Opens the day.
Brandi Babin, Reclaim LLC. Former Ms. United States, home supply industry powerhouse, quiet tech wizard once she opens the laptop.
Reu Smith, AI in Crayon and Local Nerds. He takes elite AI strategy and turns it into workflows a real operator can run: stations, handoffs, and a needle that actually moves. Not a better prompt. Input, output, done. 25 years in marketing. Built and sold his shop. Fractional CMO to eight home-services companies.
Chef Z Kent, Adventure Chefs. The fourth seat is no longer sealed. He is cooking breakfast and a dynamic VIP lunch, including liquid nitrogen ice cream made in front of you. Simple, done at a level that has no business being in a workshop room. He also runs a business on the road, and that is what he is on the panel to talk about.

WHO THIS IS FOR
Owners and executives who refuse to fall behind. Leaders whose teams have stalled. Anyone stuck between "yes, I use AI" and "AI does things without me."
Not for anyone looking for a pitch fest, or forty tools instead of the five that matter.
A SHORT NOTE FROM DANIËL-JAMES VAN DEN BERG
Faith, not fear. AI is loose in your business right now, and someone on your team is pasting real client work into a free chatbot with nobody setting the rules. That is the risk and the opportunity.
In one focused keynote I show you exactly how I use AI day to day to save hours, win more work, and stay compliant, live, in a room of real Northern Colorado leaders. 80 percent human, 20 percent tech. AI amplifies you, it does not replace you.
COMPLIMENTARY CLIENT SEATS
Active DJM.Design clients receive complimentary general admission. VIP does not include guest tickets. Capacity-capped, first come first served.
