…your digital productivity skills for fun and profit (and the benefit of all beings!)
2 Live Sessions, in October 2025
$150
Level Up! is a course about digital productivity. It will help you to feel a sense of peace, calm, and competence when using computers, so that you can do projects you care about with ease and joy. The way we see it, productivity isn’t about forcing yourself to work harder—it’s about working smarter towards your own goals and dreams.
Level Up! is based on the Digital Productivity Coach (the DPC). We (Tasshin and James) first built the DPC in 2019, and we’ve made many improvements to it since then. While the DPC is a terrific resource, we’ve seen again and again that people get the most value out of it when they can talk to us directly—when they can spend time with us, ask questions, and get unblocked with specific challenges.
That’s why we’re hosting Level Up!
You, leveling up with the DPC
Level Up! is two live sessions to work with the Digital Productivity Coach. The plan is for us to introduce the DPC, for everyone to co-work on using the DPC, and we’ll work with people 1-1 to answer questions, troubleshoot problems, and help you build productivity skills and habits that work for you.
Level Up! will help you to develop productivity skills, not for their own sake, not just because, but in service to helping you to live out your values, to live your best life, your calling, your vow.
How it works
Level Up! is designed to be hands on. You’ll spend most of the time using the Digital Productivity Coach—taking the quiz as to your current productivity situation, identifying the next specific skill for you to work on, and working on implementing that specific skill.
When you get stuck, we’ll be there to answer questions like “which notetaking app should I use?” or “how do I set this up in Todoist again?”
We designed Level Up! to have two sessions, so that you can implement one or more improvements during the first session, integrate them into your workflow, and come back in two weeks to dive more deeply into the DPC. This is the way the DPC is designed to be used—returning to it iteratively, so that you can gradually move through the Digital Productivity skill tree at your own pace—and how you can get the most out of it!
All participants will get free access to the Digital Productivity Coach, regardless of whether they’ve used or purchased it before. You don’t need to buy it separately!
By attending Level Up! and implementing the suggestions in the Digital Productivity Coach, you’ll have tools that you like, enjoy, and know how to use; achieve Inbox Zero, implement best practices for task management (GTD) and note-taking (BASB); and, most importantly, feel a sense of ease and confidence as you go about your life, work, and projects. It’ll be like having superpowers, or a mech suit!

Testimonials
Here’s what users have said about how using the Digital Productivity Coach has helped them with their work and their life:
Sometimes it feels like the things you want to achieve are so big that you don’t even know where to start. The Digital Productivity Coach gives you a very clear, actionable next step. Once you realize what the next step is, you’re already doing it – you’re moving towards your goals.
— Sílvia Bastos, @this_is_silvia
After using the Digital Productivity Coach, I started using a calendar a dedicated notes app. Since then, I would guess that my productivity has increased by a factor of 10. It’s actually possible to do my job now, since I’ve learned how to be productive and organized at a scale that can actually grow. I’d highly recommend this for basically anyone.

Program Leaders
I’ve been obsessed with productivity for as long as I can remember. I was into GTD, Lifehacker, and 43 Folders as a teenager. As an adult, I took Building a Second Brain, where I met James and had a brief stint working for Tiago!
James and I decided to build the DPC in 2019, which I’ve since realized is part of my larger Empowerment work. I love to see people level up their capacity for doing work in the world that’s aligned with their gifts, that benefits the world!
I’m a research engineer from Seattle, Washington! In past lives I’ve been a productivity coach, a Senior Mentor for BASB, and a YouTuber.
