    43 | 10-Minute Agent: How to Use AI in a Crisis (The Season Agent)

    Your three AI agents are built for your ordinary weeks — but what about the hard seasons your stack was never built for? In this Season 3 opener, Lakesha introduces the Season Agent: a temporary, single-purpose AI agent you build for one hard season and retire when it passes. It honors the Stack Rule, protects your Agency when you’re running on empty, and sets up the most personal season of the show yet. In this episode 🌟 What a Season Agent is — and why it’s not a fourth permanent agent 🎯 The three-signal filter for knowing you’re in a season, not just a hard week 🧱 The four-part skeleton: season named, one job, guardrails, end condition 🛡️ The Agency principle — staying CEO when life gets hard This week’s action step Write one sentence: “The season I’m in right now is ___.” Then share whether you’re in a season or a steady stretch in the Playground.
