This week on The AI Report, Liam Lawson sits down with Celeste Yamile, a personal brand strategist who went from selling Fiverr gigs to building a six-figure business, powered by AI and a loyal LinkedIn audience of 20,000+.

Celeste breaks down how she bootstrapped her business using content, systems, and ChatGPT. She shares why most creators fail to connect, how she builds content with her own voice, and how storytelling and structure helped her grow faster than she imagined.

We dive into her actual workflow, her AI stack, and the mindset shifts that helped her turn monetizable knowledge into a real income engine.

Also in this episode:

• Her transition from teaching English to coaching creators

• Why ChatGPT still beats Gemini and Claude for her content process

• What most creators get wrong about authenticity

• How she helps clients build their first digital product

• The story behind matching her dad’s 25-year salary with content and coaching

This is an inspiring and tactical breakdown for anyone building a business with content, community, and AI.
