This is for you if

You keep hearing about AI.
You are done watching from the sidelines.

Build Like a Mom is designed for ambitious women who want to use AI as leverage -- at work, at home, or in their next chapter. No coding knowledge required. No intimidating jargon. Just practical tools that fit real life.

You have played with ChatGPT but feel like you are barely scratching the surface of what it can do for your actual life.

You are a working mom, entrepreneur, or in career transition and you want AI to give you real time back -- not just theory.

You are not technical and do not want to be. You want to use AI -- not understand how it was built.

You want to actually build something by the end of the week -- not watch someone else build it on a webinar.

You have 30 minutes a day and want those minutes to build something that changes how you work and live.

You are tired of AI content made by people who have never run a household alongside a career. You want this built by moms, for moms.

The honest version

Most AI courses were not built for your schedule.

They assume you have uninterrupted hours. They use jargon designed to impress. They end with a certificate and nothing built.

This sprint was built differently. 30 minutes a day. Real exercises with real output. Designed for the kind of schedule where you have exactly one window -- and it needs to count. By Day 5, you will not just understand AI. You will have used it to solve a real problem in your actual life. That is the only metric that matters here.

The 5-day sprint

What happens each day.

01

Demystifying AI -- For Moms, By Moms

What AI actually means for your daily life -- not the world, your life. The 5 terms you need to know. Real examples of what moms used AI for this week. You leave with your personal AI stack set up and one real win already done.

I'm not intimidated anymore. I see how this fits into MY life.
02

AI for Time Hacks

The biggest opportunity for moms is operational: AI as a cognitive load reduction tool. Choose your path: Home Mental Load (weekly planning, meal prep, family communication) or Working Mom Life (summaries, strategic thinking, simple systems). You build a reusable AI Mom Assistant -- a personalized prompt system you can use every week.

I successfully used AI and I got time back.
03

Moms Are Problem Solvers

What is the one thing in your life that eats the most time, causes the most stress, or makes you say "there has to be a better way"? Today you identify it, frame it, and describe it to AI in a way that produces real solutions. You leave with a problem statement and three possible solutions -- one of which you will build tomorrow.

I identified a real problem and I know AI can help me solve it.
04
Hackathon Day

Build Like a Mom

Today Arjita walks you through the build step by step. You take the direction you chose on Day 3 and actually make something -- a working prototype, a functional tool, or an AI-powered workflow. You describe what you want in plain English using Replit and iterate until it works. No coding. No technical background. Just your problem statement and 60 minutes of focused attention.

I have built a working prototype of my solution using AI.
05

From Learning to Leverage

Turn the week into a system. Build your 30-Day AI Plan: 3 areas of your life where AI works for you, 1 tool you are mastering, 1 problem you are going to keep solving. Then join office hours with Arjita -- a seasoned entrepreneur who builds with AI at scale every day.

I have a system now. I have a plan. I'm not going back.

Every exercise has a clear deliverable. You are not just watching -- you are doing. Templates provided. Instructions built in. Clear output every single day.

AI Weekly Planner Template

Tell the AI about your family and schedule. Get a full personalized weekly plan -- meals, activities, priorities -- in one view. Yours to keep and use after the sprint.

AI Meal Prep Assistant Template

Fill in your family's food preferences and get a full 7-day meal plan plus an organized grocery list. Accounts for picky eaters, budget, dietary needs, and how much time you actually have to cook.

Office Hours with Arjita

Every Tuesday, 4:00 to 4:30pm PT. Moms who built their first AI tool get to talk directly with a seasoned entrepreneur who builds with AI every day at scale. Real questions. Real answers.

Day 4 Hackathon

You build something real. Arjita walks you through it.

Day 4 is the day that makes this sprint different from every other AI course. You take the problem you identified on Day 3 and build a working prototype -- guided by Arjita, who does this every day as an entrepreneur, mom and professor. No coding required. You describe what you want in plain English.

1
Bring Your Problem Statement

The 2-sentence problem you wrote on Day 3 and the direction you chose. This is your starting point -- not a generic assignment.

Questions

The things you are probably wondering.

Do I need any technical skills or prior AI experience?
+
No. Zero. This was designed for women with no technical background who may have only experimented with AI tools casually. If you can fill out a form and copy-paste text, you can complete every exercise in this sprint. No coding. No setup beyond a free AI account.
How much time does this actually take each day?
+
30 minutes a day for most days. Day 4 is the exception -- carve out 60 minutes. That is the day you actually build something, and it is worth the extra time. Every other day is genuinely 30 minutes or less.
When does it start?
+
The moment you enroll. Everything is available immediately. Work through it at whatever pace fits your week -- 30 minutes a day for 5 days, or faster if you want.
What do I actually build on Day 4?
+
Arjita walks you through the build step by step. You take the problem you identified on Day 3 and build your own working prototype using Replit -- describing what you want in plain English and iterating until it works. No coding required. You end Day 4 with something real that you built yourself to solve your specific problem.
Do I need to pay for any AI tools to participate?
+
You will need a Replit account ($25/month) to complete the Day 4 build. For AI, Claude.ai and ChatGPT both have free tiers that work for all exercises -- though a Pro or Max subscription gives you significantly better output and is recommended if you plan to keep building after the sprint.
Is this a subscription?
+
No. Build Like a Mom is a one-time payment of $100. You get permanent access to all 5 days of content, the 6 AI templates, the Circle community, and weekly office hours with Arjita and Shreya.

this conversation.

Self-paced. Start today. 5 days. By the end, you will have built something real with AI. That changes everything that comes after.
