Reclaim Your Best Hours — A Tall Trees Collective Workshop

You will not leave with theory. You will leave with a working setup you built yourself.

Over four live sessions, you set Claude up to sound like you, build a tool that handles your own recurring work, and put at least one task on a schedule so it runs without you.

A Claude that sounds like you

Configured with your voice, your business, and the things you would never say in a client email, so the output needs light editing, not a full rewrite.

A custom Skill built around your own work

Not a demo. A reusable tool you built for a task you used to repeat, plus a starter library of ready-made Skills you have adapted and run.

At least one task running automatically

Work that arrives finished, on a cadence, without you starting it each time. One recurring task, now running on its own schedule.

An expanded map of what comes next

You will see what Claude can do beyond the workshop and know exactly where to go deeper when you are ready.

Each session builds on the last

The work you do during and between sessions is what makes the next one productive, so the workshop is paced to give you room to practice, not to rush you through features.

Properly Introduced

Before Claude can work for you, it needs to know you. You arrive having already drafted your context files using Your Claude Context Kit, and in this session we load and refine them together. By the end, Claude already knows how you think, write, and work.

Load and refine your global instructions, the standing rules Claude follows in every conversation.
Set up the folder structure that lives outside Claude, the filing cabinet it reads from and writes to.
Walk through the settings and privacy choices that protect your work and your clients.
Refine your about-me and brand-voice context files.

Delegated

You stop being the one who does the recurring work and start being the one who approves it. We connect Claude to the tools where your work already lives, and you load and run your first Skill live, so you get a feel for how Skills work before you build your own.

Set up Projects, dedicated workspaces for your clients and initiatives.
Understand and enable appropriate Connectors based on the apps you use (Gmail, Google Drive, Asana, and more).
Load and run pre-built Skills from a starter library and see exactly how they work.

Build Your Own

This is the heart of the workshop. You come with an idea for a Skill that handles your own recurring work, we build one together as a worked example, and then you have dedicated time to build yours with live help when you get stuck.

Watch a custom Skill built start to finish, then build your own alongside it.
Get your questions answered live while you build, not after.
Set up one Scheduled Task so a piece of your work runs on its own.

Wide Open

We open with live troubleshooting on the Skills you built, then move to producing finished work. You will see how Claude turns drafts into deliverables you can send, publish, or hand off in a professional design, or using your brand kit if applicable.

Bring your Skill questions. This is where we get you unstuck.
Build an Artifact together, a document or plan ready to download and share.
See Live Artifacts and Claude Design in action, and leave with a map of where to take this next.

A hands-on working workshop, not a lecture

Built for professionals and small business owners who have used Claude or ChatGPT in a basic, back-and-forth way and want to understand what Claude can actually do for their business. You do not need to be technical. You need to be willing to do the pre-work and the practice between sessions, because doing the work yourself is where the mindset shift occurs.

This is for you if

You have used AI in a simple, back-and-forth way and sense there is far more there.

You are not technical, and you want a setup you understand and can keep building on.

You show up ready to build. The people who get the most from this are the ones who do the work.

Probably not the right fit if

You are a developer or already build with AI tools at a technical level. You will likely find the pace too gentle.

You are looking for a done-for-you setup or an enterprise rollout. This workshop teaches you to build it yourself. Reach out about 1:1 consulting if you want solutions built for you.

Your Claude Context Kit

When you sign up, you receive Your Claude Context Kit, a short, guided process you run yourself before Session 1. It asks you a focused set of questions about your business and how you work, then helps Claude draft your starting context files: your global instructions, your about-me, and your brand-voice.

The setup is the strategy. Good setup produces good output.

You walk into Session 1 with working first drafts already in hand, which is what lets us spend our live time refining instead of starting from a blank screen.

Four live sessions on Google Meet

Schedule

Thursday, July 164:00 to 5:30 pm

Thursday, July 234:00 to 5:30 pm

Thursday, July 304:00 to 5:30 pm

Thursday, August 64:00 to 5:30 pm

All times Pacific.

How It Runs

Eight people maximum. Small enough that you get real time and real answers.
Every session is recorded. Recordings go to everyone, so you can catch a session you miss or revisit one you attended.
A second screen helps. Watch along on one while you work on the other. Not required, just easier.
Q&A support in between sessions.

What You Need

This workshop requires Claude Pro, which is $20 a month, billed by Anthropic and not included in the workshop fee. The desktop app is what unlocks Cowork and local file access, the features we work in throughout. The pre-work checklist covers both.

A foundation, not a ceiling

This workshop gives you the foundation: a Claude that knows you and a setup you can keep building on. For people who want that foundation built around them in depth, with a full personal synthesis and one-on-one build sessions, there is a private program. We can talk about it if and when you are ready. There is no pressure to go further. What you build in these four sessions stands on its own.

The setup you build is a foundation, not a ceiling. A relationship you cultivate, not a one-time tool.
