Syllabus — videos in production
The Course

From Idea to Income. The Course.

By the end of this course, you will have a validated app idea, a practical AI-assisted build workflow, a launch plan, and a stronger sense of ownership over your product and business.

The course is the execution layer of the Afia Labs system. It turns the ideas in the book into a guided transformation. You read the book, fill the workbook, and walk through the course with me beside you. Eleven modules. Real screen shares. Real prompts. Real rejections. The stuff nobody shows you on LinkedIn.

Videos are still being recorded. This page is the living syllabus — the module list is final, the lesson breakdowns are final, the bonus pack is final. What's missing is the footage. If a lesson title reads off or seems thin, tell me.

  • Workbook companion — every module maps to pages in the workbook

Who It's For

The course is for the builder who wants the hand-holding. The one who wants to see the screen, hear the voice, and walk the path with someone who has already walked it. If you want the framework and the action system only, the book and workbook will get you there. If you want the full guided transformation, this is where it lives.
