Transcript:
Foreign to 2025 jumpers, how are you? Oh my gosh, I’m so glad to be back. Took a couple weeks off from the podcast. I missed you all. I’ve been thinking of you all and I am energized and geared up for 2025. Oh, yeah, there’s gonna be so many changes and I don’t think the general world is. Is prepared for it, or not even prepared, but like, I guess you can’t get prepared. I don’t think they realize what’s happening. And I take it as my personal mission to guide you through this because there’s going to be so much opportunity and honestly, blessings if you look at it correctly.
So without further ado, let’s get going. I am, I am definitely going to be shaking things up. Um, today I’m going to share with you how we’re evolving this year. Not just in the mastermind, but in our business and in our lives and the way that we approach everything. And yes, we’re also talking about AI. In fact, there’s probably not going to be an episode moving forward that you’re not going to hear me mention it. And I, I just want to be real frank about that because it’s kind of like not talking that the sky is blue. It’s right there.
It’s the elephant in the room. There’s going to be a lot of people, you know, running from it in fear. And you know, that’s not how I do things and that’s not how I teach. We’re definitely not going to be in fear. It’s not going anywhere. And the way it’s growing is absolutely mind boggling. Um, I listen to podcasts on almost on a daily basis on this stuff from leading experts around the world. Um, from some of them are probably boring to some.
Cause I’m, I’m listening to developers and, and all this geek speak and stuff. But it’s also that not only can I leverage it in my own business, but so that I can pass it on to you. If you’re not already using it in your business. Don’t worry, you’re not behind. But. But by the end of the year, you’re gonna feel like a total pro. If you trust me. Cause I got you.
And I don’t say that lightly. Here’s the thing. Every single one of you listening is in a different stage. Some of you are in survival mode, holding it together day by day. Some of you are in growth mode, building something incredible. Some are you coasting, enjoying the fruits of your hard Work. And some of you are in a creative space dreaming up the best, best next idea, wherever you are. This episode and this year, it’s for you.
I want to start looking back at the last year in the Mastermind. We had three meetings a month. Coaching calls, HR sessions, speakers. It was a lot. Some of you loved it, some of you hit a little bit of meeting fatigue. And I get it, it was a lot of value. But I think we can make it even better this year. So here’s what I’m thinking.
How can I, as your coach, make this Mastermind even more valuable? How can I make sure that you’re not just keeping up with times, but staying ahead of them? That’s where AI comes in. AI isn’t just tech companies or Silicone Valley. It’s you, pet business owners, busy entrepreneurs. People who are juggling a million things and need a way to do them faster, smarter, and with less stress. Maybe even just someone to talk to to get the stuff out of your head and make it make sense. Yes, it can do that. I do that a couple times a week, believe it or not. Last year, you might have dabbled with AI, maybe ChatGPT or some other tool, and you’re like, oh, yeah, Bell, I got it.
Like, I know ChatGPT. I use it. But it doesn’t really like, talk like me. It doesn’t really know me really well. I don’t know the full extent of what I’m doing with it. I’ve dabbled in it. But on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being the best and maybe like a 1 or 2, so maybe it worked for you, maybe it didn’t. But here’s the truth.
If it didn’t work, and some of you don’t know that it didn’t work, you think it worked, but it didn’t work. Are you with me? It’s not because AI doesn’t work. It’s because it wasn’t used the right way. And that’s where I come in. This year, we’re simplifying, streamlining, and adding even more value with less time. Here’s what you can expect. First, we’re keeping the monthly roundup calls. These are the bread and butter of the Mastermind.
It’s a chance for you to submit your questions, get coached, and hear from your fellow jumpers. It’s where, like, brainstorms can come up. Or sometimes other people ask questions that you’re like, yeah, that’s a good question. I kind of had that, too. I just didn’t articulate it. Right. There’s something magical about a group think, bouncing ideas off each other and realizing, wow, I’m not the only one that struggles with this. The next is our HR expert.
She’s totally sticking around Nikki with HR answers. Uh, she comes in quarterly, and let me tell you, she’s an absolute gem. She’s been working with pet sitters and dog walkers since 2018, and she knows our industry inside and out. Whether you’re wondering how to fire someone or what to ask in an interview or how to handle tricky team situations, she’s your go to. Plus, we have an insane library of HR questions and answers. Literally, like, every question that’s ever been asked, organized by topic, it has a timestamp and it takes you straight to the video. You can just go in search and bam, you get your answer. There’s nowhere else in the industry you can get that.
But here’s the really big shift for 2025, and honestly, I’ve been thinking about it, praying about it, manifesting it, whatever resonates the. Okay, I’m, I’m, I’m doing something this year. I’m really excited. Like, I’m, like, literally publicly announcing it right now. We’re going to be doing what I’m going to call AI labs. No more passive learning. This is about hands on, roll up your sleeves. Let’s get this done together.
Jump on zoom, record it, play around in it. We can do it on my account if you don’t have one, so you can see the true potential of what’s there. Every month, we’re going to dive into AI tools and techniques you can use to simplify your business and save time. And I’m not just talking about ChatGPT, although we’ll start there because, let’s face it, it’s the easiest entry point. And if you’re an iPhone user, and I think it’s only on the iPhone 16s right now, but, like, Siri’s teamed up with ChatGPT. So Siri and I were not friends up until recently. Like, Siri would never listen to me. I’d ask for apples, she’d give me oranges.
I don’t know if you guys have had that, that before, but holy cow, Siri is like my BFF now, because she just got a whole lot smarter. And it’s amazing. And the things that you can do on the phone are amazing. And it just, it blows my mind thinking about how ChatGPT is coming to mainstream. Mainstream, Right. People aren’t really talking about it yet, but it’s Mainstream. Like, it’s summarizing your emails, it’s summarizing your text messages. It’s able to rewrite your text messages or emails with the click of a button.
Professional or friendly. Or if you load up your own chat GPT, it’s. It’s powerful. This is where. And I’ve already started doing this with my coaching clients. If you’re a coaching client, you know exactly what I mean. Updating the employee handbook. Yeah.
Well, your first thought is probably like just with clauses, but. No, I mean updating the handbook with instructions on how to send care notes with. With ChatGPT so that all of your care notes are like uniformed so that one client doesn’t just love one sitter and that’s it. It literally takes out the whole problem that we’ve had in this industry, which is how do we send care notes that like, everyone will love? And it’s not that like one is a better writer and one’s a worse writer because we all know we have those clients that, you know, they want one sitter just because of how they write, because of how they make them feel. Right? So this is just one tiny little way that, that this is all going to help. And this is what I’m going to be teaching you guys. Like, I am like, get ready. Like those of you who have been with me for a very long time, I am like 2019 excited.
Like when everything was just like it was. It felt like my birthday every day. Like, that’s how excited I was. And this is how On Fire 2025 is going to be. Because I see what is happening in our world and I am so dedicated to help translating that into your own business that you don’t have to figure it out. Get overwhelmed, shut down. You know, I don’t want that for you. And so there’s going to be no more passive learning.
It’s like another example. Do you hate writing? Sops AI can do it. All you got to do is talk to it for like a couple minutes and boom. I mean, I have literally, I have one client where we literally have built her business from scratch. And she’s got so much documentation on every cotton picking thing you could think of, all the way down to what’s the script at a booth. And like I was saying, the ChatGPT care notes, We’ve done reviews, we’ve done marketing campaigns, we’ve done her website, we’ve done like, like everything. Literally everything. And what we did is we taught.
And I’m going to share all this in the Mastermind, but we taught it how to know her. Guys, the whole like, what’s a good prompt? Is so 2024. That is not where Chachi PT is going. That’s not where AI is going. It’s. It. It’s not going to be about prompts anymore. So if you’re just getting started and you’re thinking it’s about prompts, like we’re going to have agents by, like, I’m not going to say when because I don’t want to be wrong, but soon.
And if you don’t know what agents are, that’s a whole nother thing that it’s, it’s basically like the. We’re sitting in the days. I’m going so off script right now. But we’re sitting in the days when, you know, when you got a cell phone and you were like, really cool, but like you had to pay for minutes. I’m dating myself right now. I’m 42. And now we have cell phones. Unlimited minutes, right? Like unlimited, like data.
Like, well, or a lot of us do. And you know, we’re not paying for the Internet. You know, it’s not like AOL dial up, right? That’s where we’re sitting right now. Except things are going to evolve, like, quantum. Quantum. Okay. All right. I’m gonna go back to my script because I feel like I’m having a one way conversation right now and I’m gonna maybe hopefully save this for some dialogue in the Mastermind where people will actually talk back to me.
But I do encourage you, definitely. First of all, if you have not subscribed to this podcast, I am so dedicated to just knocking your socks off with interesting ideas and thought provoking ways to enhance your life and your business this year. So please subscribe and also I would love to get your feedback, comments, reviews, stars, whatever it is, wherever you listen. Okay, so let me break this all down, like, because I’m getting a little excited and let me, let me pull it back down. Artificial intelligence, it’s. It’s not just a new shiny toy. It’s. It’s a tool that when used right, can completely transform the way that you work.
And the reason why it matters is because almost all of you are like, you don’t have enough time, right? You, you all say, like, I don’t have time for this. And you’re stressed out, you’re overworked. Well, it saves time. Imagine cutting your workload in half because AI is handling repetitive stuff. Okay? That’s one thing. Like when you can get it on A workflow. Another way is something like, here’s a food for thought for you. By the end of this year, if I were to tell you opening up a Word document would be as archaic as going to Blockbuster to get a VHS today, would you believe me? You’re not going to be opening up Word docs sitting there thinking, what do I type? What do I, what do I say? Like, your whole entire behavior is going to change.
This is huge. It’s going to reduce your stress because you won’t be staring at these blank screens trying to come up with perfect words. It’s going to give you a starting point and sometimes a finished product if you know how to finesse it. And it’s definitely going to boost productivity. If you can, like, create an SOP for the way that you use AI for your office manager, imagine taking that office manager’s 10 hours a week work down to two. What? Yeah. And so here’s an example. Let’s say you want to create an SOP for a new process in your business.
Before you’d literally have to sit down, you’d have to think step by step, hopefully not be distracted by the dog, the kids, your partner, the phone call, the text messages, the emails, right? You’d have to write it out, you would edit it, you would send it to someone else to review and you’d pay them to hundreds of dollars. Then you’d revise it again and because you need it to be like, technically written, right? I mean, this is how I used to go through the employee handbook and manuals when we were doing them every single year. Like, literally had to go send it off to someone and spend hundreds of dollars. You don’t have to do that anymore. With AI, you can literally prompt the so to the to write the SOP for you, you tweak it and it’s done. I know this might sound like witchcraft to some people or magic potions, but it’s, it’s. That’s probably one of the most easiest use cases you can do with it. Or let’s say you wanted to write a hiring ad.
Instead of staring at a blank screen, you ask AI to draft something based off a few details you provide. Then you refine it and it’s ready to post. That sounds simple, but there’s actually a lot of nuances to get it not to sound like everyone else and to make it sound like you and your business and your vernacular and your way of speaking and your company culture. Cause sure, it could spit out a corporate generic hiring ad, but jumper that is not what you should be posting. You should have a couple different versions. That’s a whole nother story. We will not get into that today. But let me say this, AI isn’t about to.
It’s not all about replacing you. Right? It’s about freeing up your time so that you can focus on doing the things that only you can do. One of the thought leaders that I listened to, she really says that it’s going to be. So what’s the big picture for this year? My vision is for every single one of you to feel empowered by the tools and the resources available to you. And I will be constantly exposing you to all of them. Because it’s not just chatgpt. I want you to feel confident using AI and not intimidated by it. I want you to reclaim your time, reduce your stress, and focus on the parts of the business that light you up, the parts of the business that you hate.
I. Oh, I’m gonna do a Mastermind challenge. I just came up with this. This is raw, unfiltered. Bella, if you’re in the Mastermind, I want you to post in there right now. What is something that you absolutely despise so much that you procrastinate in your business doing? And I’m going to show you how AI can help you get through it. Maybe it’s bookkeeping. That’s the first one that comes to my mind.
I want you to feel confident. I want you to reclaim your time. I don’t want you to be intimidated by it. The Mastermind is not just a place to learn. It’s a place to grow, connect, and thrive. Whether you’re tackling team challenges, figuring out financials, dreaming up your next big idea, I’m here to help you make that happen. And we are going to be so hands on. I’m excited about this AI lab because it’s.
It’s going to be live or it’s going to be one on one. There’s going to be a lot more videos in there this year, and they’re going to be easy to understand and consume. Because guess what? I also have AI summaries now that I can use. I can give you guys the Cliff Notes if you do. If you’re not some. Someone who likes to watch videos, right, because you get distracted or there’s other things going on, it takes too much focus. Then you could read through the transcript or the, the. The.
The notes that basically you can read through and find out. Okay, just give me the facts, Bella. I don’t have time to sit here and watch this. And I’m dedicated. I’ve been dedicated to doing that since I started classes. That’s where I have most of my classes. They’re written and recorded on audio. Because I know a lot of you guys are driving around or walking around.
You can’t necessarily sit at a computer. Everyone’s at different stages, right? So I’m so excited at what’s coming in the Mastermind. AI is going to change the game for all of us. I can’t wait for you to dive into this journey with me. So if you’re ready to start 2025, if you’re curious about this AI thing, if you’re curious about the Mastermind, I am not joking. I’m not being. Since I’m not sensationalizing this. There is never been a better time to get in the Mastermind.
I will give you a $50 discount if you message me by January 15th to get in there. And that will be month over month over month over month. I would rather you get in there and you get this information and this knowledge. I mean, literally, that would be, if my math is correct, like 127amonth. I can easily make you that back in like 10 minutes. You don’t believe me? Challenge me. I really will. I 100% will do that for you.
All right. This has been another episode of Bella in youn Business. I sincerely am excited for you guys this year. I’m excited for what’s coming. I’m excited for how businesses are going to be changing and evolving. I’m excited for how for those who are awake and who are are trying, they’re going to be light years ahead of other people. I already see it in Facebook groups. People are asking questions that I’m like, you don’t know I.
Because you would not be answer asking this question. And it’s not even just simply asking questions, but it’s all of the stress and the anxiety that comes with this question or situation or challenge that these people have. And they could get outside of their head if they knew what tools that they could leverage. It’s not expensive. It’s free and cheap. You just need to know. You need to have a guide. You need to have someone that understands your business and understands the technology.
And I am standing right here asking you, take a jump. Come jump with me. There’s no long term commitment of the Mastermind. It’s month to month. I dare you. Come on in. It’s gonna be so much fun and I don’t want you to get left behind all right. For real.
I’m gonna go. Happy New Year. I hope that everything you didn’t. That didn’t work out for you last year does not continue this year. And I hope that this year is one of the best years yet. And it is your year to shine. Remember, when life gets you down, always keep jumping. Bye, now.
