What 90 Days of Showing Up Did to My LinkedIn (and My Ego)

I used AI to write more, and dig deeper, and caught myself leaning on it as a crutch. A candid account of 90 days, the metrics, and the honest line between tool and shortcut.

Earlier this year, I did something that, on paper, sounds almost too simple to write about: I joined a small accountability squad and committed to posting on LinkedIn twice a week for 90 days: February 1 through April 30.

No growth hacks. No paid amplification. No algorithm whispering. Just a handful of people in different time zones, a shared agreement, and a rule that we’d actually show up for each other.

Here’s what happened: the numbers, the mechanics, and the part nobody puts in the case study: how it actually felt, and what I learned about writing with AI without letting it write for me.
