What if the biggest thing holding back your growth is not the mistakes you make, but your fear of making them? In this episode, I explore the difference between mistakes, failures, and what I call growth mistakes. I share why trying to prevent mistakes can actually prevent growth, and how changing your relationship with mistakes can transform the way you lead your business.       I walk through how growth mistakes happen, why they are an inevitable part of entrepreneurship, and how they differ from carelessness or poor decision-making. You'll hear how I've been navigating this work in my own business, why some winning strategies eventually become growth limitations, and how embracing mistakes can create new opportunities for learning, leadership, and long-term success.       I also explain why every growth mistake has the potential to become part of your future body of work. This episode will help you think differently about mistakes, trust yourself through them, and use them as fuel for your next level of growth instead of a reason to hold yourself back.                                If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

What's the difference between growing a business and actually scaling one? In this episode, I break down the distinction between growth and scaling, and why understanding that difference matters if you want to build a business that can create larger results over time. I share my definition of scaling and explain why simply making more money is not the same thing as building a scalable business.        I walk through the key elements that make a business truly scalable, including creating more revenue, serving more clients, and helping those clients get better and faster results without requiring more of your time. I also explain why growth is a necessary phase before scaling and why many coaches try to skip important foundational work that ultimately makes scaling possible.        I also share the tangible business changes and mindset shifts required to prepare for scaling. You'll hear how I think about scalable offers, intellectual property, delivery, operations, and leadership, along with the signs that indicate a business is ready to move from growth into scaling.                                If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

On today's episode, Dr. Bill Keith speaks during the April 2026 Mastermind about shifting from the clinical brain to the CEO brain and why practice owners must learn to zoom out, identify patterns, and build teams that can surface problems before they become costly. Drawing from examples in aviation, Toyota manufacturing, hospital operating rooms, Southwest Airlines, and the Challenger disaster, he explains how the people closest to the work often hold the most important information, yet may not feel safe or empowered to speak up.  The episode explores how dentists can create psychological safety, use one-on-ones and anonymous feedback, encourage team members to "pull the cord," and build systems that move knowledge from the front lines to leadership. Dr. Keith challenges owners to stop being the hero who solves every issue and instead develop a culture where the team is trusted, heard, and equipped to help the practice grow.

In this episode, we're talking with Denise Parkes of The Crafty DIYer. Denise and I know each other well. She's a member of Launch Your Box, Scale Your Box, and my Elevate Mastermind. As one of my Mastermind Ladies, I get to see Denise in person 3 times a year! Her strength and the story of the last year in her business inspire me and the other members of our Mastermind. It will inspire you, too.  Denise is an artist and a crafter. She is passionate about teaching others to enjoy crafting. Denise serves mainly women over the age of 60 and, by going LIVE six days a week for a long time, had built up a devoted following.  When Denise learned about me and my annual Subscription Box Week, she joined right away. During that week, Denise got to know me and my teaching style as well as what she could expect inside Launch Your Box. Denise was convinced a subscription box was the right next step for her. She actually launched during Subscription Box Week (remember she already had a large audience) and got 120 subscribers!  Denise's subscription box grew quickly and soon she needed to rent warehouse space to handle inventory and fulfillment. But all was not well inside Denise's business. Denise and her business reside in Canada where shipping costs are prohibitive. She simply couldn't afford to ship to her largely US based subscribers, or even those in her own country. Shipping costs were eating up all of her profits.  Denise was also dealing with health issues and found herself stressed and unhappy. Her business in its current form was no longer serving her. She knew she still needed to make an income, but couldn't go on as she was.   But Denise is someone who gets back up and figures things out. And during our September 2023 Mastermind Retreat, she did just that. There is power in being in a room with other smart, like-minded businesswomen who want the best for you.  Denise realized the way forward was with printables – no shipping required! She'd had a super successful printable lead magnet in place to grow her list and further proved the viability of her idea by selling one-off printables. When she was able to get out of her warehouse lease, Denise felt able to start from scratch again… even though doing so was scary.  Starting from scratch for Denise meant “doing everything Sarah teaches.”  Building her list Driving traffic to her website Putting effective lead magnets out there  The Digital Print Clubhouse launch was a big success – 150 subscribers big. And it has continued to grow. Denise now has more than 400 subscribers and celebrated hitting 6-figures only 10 months after making this major pivot.  So what's different now?  Less stress More joy  Nothing to pack and ship More time and energy to create  Denise talks about the importance of being around women who support and understand her – like the ones found inside Launch Your Box. She also reminds us of the importance of not worrying about what anyone else thinks and resisting the urge to compare yourself to anyone else.  Pivoting was necessary for Denise's business to survive. And now she's not only surviving, she's thriving… and celebrating hitting six-figures in less than a year!  Join me for this episode as Denise and I talk about realizing when it's time to pivot, working through the fear, and coming out stronger… oh, and reaching six-figures in revenue in less than a year!  Find and follow Denise:  ⁠Crafty DIYer on Facebook⁠  ⁠Crafty DIYer on Instagram⁠ ⁠Crafty DIYer Website⁠ Join me in all the places:   ⁠Facebook⁠ ⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠Launch Your Box with Sarah Website⁠  Are you ready for ⁠Launch Your Box⁠?

Have you hired people who look great on paper only to later discover the skills do not actually transfer? Today's featured guest built her agency deliberately, one client at a time, carrying systems from her years at L'Oréal before anyone told her those systems would matter. She talks about how she structured accountability on her team from the beginning, how she filters out candidates who cannot think without AI holding their hand, and why she stopped caring about working with the sexiest beauty brands and started caring about working with the right ones. Mimi Banks is the founder and CEO of MB Social, a New York-based social media agency specializing in beauty. She spent years at L'Oréal, where she was among the first people to build social media infrastructure at the company, then moved to a Paris-based startup before eventually launching MB Social. Her team of 25 now handles social strategy, community management, and content for beauty brands across the market. In this episode, we'll discuss: Starting off with a vision on accountable vs responsible Can your team do 80% of what you do? Then you're set Why she stopped chasing the wrong clients Subscribe Apple | Spotify | iHeart Radio Sponsors and Resources E2M Solutions: Today's episode of the Smart Agency Masterclass is sponsored by E2M Solutions, a web design and development agency that has provided white-label services for the past 10 years to agencies all over the world.

Building From the Beginning with Systems, Not Just Instinct Mimi came into agency ownership with something most founders spend years trying to build after the fact: a working model for how things should get done. Her time creating social media infrastructure at L'Oréal gave her a process orientation before she had a team to apply it to. When she started bringing people on at MB Social, the systems came with her. The ways of working, the documentation, the clarity around who was responsible versus who was accountable: those were in place because she had already built them once somewhere else. For instance, she started off with clarity on the distinction between responsible and accountable. She positioned herself as accountable from day one while making sure there was always a specific person responsible for each piece of work. That structure kept her from becoming the default executor on everything, which is the trap most founders walk into when they hire without clarifying ownership. The 80 Percent Standard That Actually Frees You Mimi is far enough along in her evolution that she no longer reviews most of what her team produces. She trusts the people leading each department to make judgment calls without routing them upward. Getting there required learning to live with the gap between what she would do and what her team does, and deciding that gap was acceptable. This is a framing every mastermind member knows: if your team does 80 percent of what you would do, that is good enough. Because you cannot do a hundred percent of everything, and the cost of trying is that you stay in the operator role indefinitely. The coaching method Mimi asks her leadership team to apply is asking questions. Similar to the Mastermind's 1-3-1 method, it's basically about asking questions that will help your team come up with options they have already considered, which leads to them coming up with the solution on their own. Do that enough times and the team stops treating the founder as the answer key. Hiring for Beauty When Everyone Says They Know Social The challenge Mimi keeps running into in hiring is the gap between what candidates say they can do and what the work actually requires. Social media for enterprise beauty brands is not the same skill as posting on a personal Instagram. The strategy is more complex, the client demands are higher, and the responsiveness required is relentless. Candidates do not always know that going in, and some of them figure it out in ways that are expensive to the team. The hiring process she built with Hireflex added a video interview layer with no retry option that filters for candidates willing to do the uncomfortable thing even when it is not required. From there she takes the transcripts, runs them through AI against a scoring rubric tied to the job description, and uses that data alongside her own read to make decisions. What she is testing for is the ability to think, not just to produce a clean output with AI assistance. The perfect presentation that does not match the resume tells her nothing useful. The candidate who works through a problem imperfectly, in their own words, tells her a great deal. Designing the Agency Around the Clients You Actually Want Mimi stopped chasing the sexiest beauty brands. Not because she cannot get them, but because sexy and right are not the same thing. Payment terms that stretch to 120 days, clients who treat the team poorly, brands that want work done yesterday and deliver assets a month late: those are not problems that prestige solves. She now runs the agency with a no bullshit attitude and is quick to address when a client's behavior affects her team. That boundary is what makes it possible to keep the team she has built. The version of client selectivity that actually holds is based on being clear enough on what you are building that you can recognize a client who does not fit before the contract is signed. After all, client relationships are like dating: you have to see if you get along before you commit, because the worst version of a client relationship looks a lot like a bad marriage, and the damage it does to a team is not undone when the contract ends.

In this episode, I'm sharing something that might sound a little shocking: I've spent over six figures working with the same coach, in the same mastermind, over and over again. Not because I get new information and content every round. Not because I didn't “get it” the first time.But because I keep getting a return from the same process at a deeper and deeper level.This episode is for the local business owner who is afraid to invest, the one who keeps investing in too many different things, and the one who has already invested in support but knows they haven't fully applied what's in front of them yet. I'm sharing how I think about ROI, why I believe constraint creates growth and what changes when you stop looking for the next new strategy and start becoming the kind of business owner who creates a return.Tune into this episode to learn:Why most business owners don't need more new information — they need to apply, evaluate and master the process they already have.How to think about ROI before you invest, including the questions I ask myself before making a high-level investment in my business.Why the same process can keep creating results at every level of business, and how investing can become a declaration of who you're becoming.Mentioned in this episode:Work with me inside The Localpreneur AcademyFollow me on Instagram @‌lesliepresnallDownload my Free Guide: How To Grow Your Local Instagram FollowingIf you're ready to grow your local business and bring in a steady stream of clients, you need to check out The Localpreneur Academy.

Peggy Shippen: The Mastermind Behind Benedict Arnold's Defection. Guest: Professor Richard Bell. Peggy Shippen, the ambitious wife of Benedict Arnold, is portrayed as a central architect of his betrayal who likely encouraged him to monetize his position by selling loyalty to the British. When the plot was discovered, she feigned "hysteria" to successfully deflect suspicion from herself, convincing George Washington and his aides of her innocence. After the war, the Arnolds lived in exile in London, where they were disdained as traitors by British society. Her story illustrates that the Revolution was a complex civil war involving influential female actors who navigated political intrigue. 71821

One of the most common things I hear from practice owners is some version of this: "I tried Facebook ads before, and they didn't work." Sometimes they hired an agency. Sometimes they boosted a few posts. Sometimes they spent a few hundred or even multiple thousand dollars, but never saw a patient walk through the door. The problem is that most practice owners never set up the campaigns in the unique way that is actually proven to produce patients… They either target the wrong audience, use the wrong offer, don't test enough variations, or quit before they collect enough data to know what's actually working. In this episode, I walk one of my Mastermind members through exactly how I would approach Facebook and Instagram ads for her niche. While the specifics were tailored to racket sports athletes, the framework applies to almost any Cash-Based practice. P.S.

So just go ahead and change it right now. Okay, for, she doesn't like that I say a decade It drives me For 17 years. For over 17 years, yeah. That's how long it's been.   for over years. I'm like decade, decade sounds like a long time, but all right, we're changing it. Cause the life wants to change. 17 years space week. There we go. right. Updated real time. Yeah. Done. That's how we get stuff done. Okay, cool. What are we talking about today, Sarah? talk about how AI is starting to change things. Okay. Let's do it. All right, so.   One of the things we've been talking a lot about is the secondary effects of AI, because everybody's talking about AI. And I think we started in phase one was the AI revolution. Everybody's starting to use chat GPT. Now people are starting to use Clod for business and people are learning prompting. now people starting, some of you are starting to vibe code. And some of you are making videos. Some of you started making images with AI and   Now we live in a world of the next stage I'm calling AI Slop. AI Slop, we're in the world of AI Sloppy Sloppiness. I just got a letter, no offense, NARPOM, but I got a letter from y'all and I can tell you wrote this. You wrote this using ChatGPT. It's like, I mean, the big giveaway phrases and some of you have heard stuff like this. It's like, and we love NARPOM. Thanks for NARPOM for sending us a letter, but.   This is the problem with Narpum 2.0. We're not just talking about the future of our association, M-Dash. We're actively building it. So with blank, it's not A, it's B, dead giveaway. And there's lots of other dead giveaways. And some of you are starting to hear this AI voice and you're starting to recognize this AI voice. And so we're now in the world of ASLOP where nobody is writing anything.   And the people that do write original content, like I've done a couple of Facebook posts just recently, totally handwritten, I wrote the whole thing. And I really enjoy writing. The challenge is, is some people don't recognize how to get their voice into AI. And so anyway, we've got this whole world of AI slop now. Anything can be created by anyone instantly. You can create images, video, text, and so...   You've probably heard me talk about fake internet theory. Have you ever heard of this idea? I have, but just for anyone who hasn't. So the fake internet theory has been around probably since the, you know, once the internet went mainstream. And the fake internet theory is this idea that the majority, at least half in the past, of all the content, all of the traffic that was on the internet, was bots.   It could be like Google crawling sites. It could be a lot of different things, but at least half of all the traffic was bots. Well now with AI, this is even worse. Perplexity is doing research. All these different AI tools are doing research. People are not crawling stuff or crawling websites a lot of times. They're just talking to AI and AI is doing all this. And so the internet now, all the content isn't even, if even this letter probably was not written.   by D.D. Garzone, the Narfim president, 2026. It was probably written by AI, which saved her time. And it's not a bad letter. The challenge is people read this, see this, and we're starting to recognize what's AI and what's not. And we're kind of developing, there's kind of this feel, this voice that you're like, oh, that's AI. And so what am I doing? I just discount stuff. I read and go, oh, AI wrote this. I probably don't even need to read the rest.   So we just skim stuff, we stop reading things. And so this is the challenge is that people want reality, people want humanity. And so the secondary effect, we're in phase two, AI slot, phase three, I believe, is going to be a return to in-person. It's gonna be human interaction. The secondary effect of AI is that human interaction is going to be significantly more important.   And this is where things are going to be shifting to in-person. Things are going to be shifting away from digital marketing. Things are going to be shifting away from anything that you can tell AI to do quickly and easily. And I've always said to our clients, the secret ingredient to scaling your business is depth. The secret to creating a scalable business is to do the unscalable actions. That's depth. And so we're going to talk about today the importance of in-person.   Yeah. So do you guys remember in COVID when everything shut down? Yeah, good And then you couldn't leave your house? Yeah, was great. Yeah, because you might die. So that was great for a little bit, right? Everyone was like, we don't have to go to the office. I don't have to go to work. This is like, would just hang out in my house in my pajamas all day and eat some chips. And like, no, I don't know. It'll be amazing.   And that was a really fun thing. What voice is this? What is this voice? I don't know. Who speaks like this? I'm just letting you know it's not me. I'm gonna be lazy. I'm gonna do my pajamas. Today I got some pajamas on. Are they southern? Now they are. You don't know. They're all over the place. I can't do it in New York. Anyway, so it was a really fun time for like   I don't know, two weeks. The first week was awesome. It was like when you have a substitute teacher and then they put on a movie and you go, this is great. We don't have to do anything today. This is amazing. This is gonna be so cool. And the first week- thought it was awesome. I think for the first, yeah, I think a lot of people really thought it was really great for the first week because they were like, oh, this is great. Like we don't have to go into the office. I a lot of workers, think employers, business owners were freaking out. Yes, exactly. Business owners were-   Although they liked, let's be honest for a second, property managers were real happy about getting a vacation. And it was a vacation that you were forced to take. Right? You couldn't go and do things you normally do. And if you decided to not do showings or decided to not go to the office or decided to, know, like, hey guys, we're all going to work from home. No one was going to fault you. It was going to be totally fine because everybody else was doing it. So it would have been totally fine if you were like, hey, we're not doing.   Showings or hey, you know, we're gonna slow down on inspections or you know, hey, we're you know, we're not gonna come into the office We're all gonna, you know stay from home and then at some point we'll go back to the office for a little bit I think people welcomed that they were like, oh, this is great. This is fun And that maybe lasted a week maybe two maybe even three weeks for some people and then after that they were like what? When can I leave? I what do you mean? Like I'm stuck in my house. I'm I can't   get out, can't go anywhere. When my kids are here, they were all stuck together and no one knows what to do and we're all bored out of our minds and they were starving for human interaction. everything, Zoom, look at the Zoom stock in 2020, skyrocketed because everything moved to remote. Everything moved to Zoom. It was like.   we can't meet in person, but we still kind of have to do things. How do we do it? We are going to do Zoom. And then even remember when a lot of like commercial real estate, it it tanked because people were like, we can't go into the office. We're not buying office space. We're not renting office space. We're going to wait and hold out and see what happens in all this crazy COVID stuff. Right. And it's because all of us were just stuck in our houses. So everything became virtual.   Everything became remote. Even the things that are normally done in person, a lot of them started to shift so that it was no longer in person or the full thing wasn't in person. There was just the one quick little piece that was in person and everything else was done virtually. did we? Okay, I didn't know if you had the podcast. And then   At that point, people were starving for human interaction because it's not the same being on a screen. Looking at a face on the screen and hearing voices on a screen or on a phone call or through Zoom or Teams or whatever it was or emailing and texting and phone calls, it's just not the same. So people then started to go a little bit stir crazy.   And what happened, like as soon as things opened up, then what happened? Things started to surge again. People were desperately trying to connect with other people in person. They were going to their friends' houses. They were trying to meet up with their friends. They were trying to go on vacation. Travel started to boom again. Why? Because people, we are meant to be with other people.   Humans are not solitary animals. We're just not. So AI is going to end up creating something that I think is quite similar. We're going to rely on AI so much just because we have to. And it's an amazing tool. It's incredible. And it makes things a lot faster. And we can do things that were not possible before. And we can do years or months of research in minutes or hours.   the advancements that it allows us to make and in such a short time span are remarkable. But the other thing that it does is it reduces the human to human communication. And now even has anyone ever picked up the phone and called a company and you don't talk to a human now? Now you talk to the AI agent. Yeah. Right. And that seems really great.   because you go, okay, it helps me and I answered my questions and that's lovely. But can you imagine now that most of your interactions are going to be with AI? Most interactions will not be with other humans. Most of a human's interactions will be with a bot or AI. Even if it sounds like a human, it will be AI. And that kind of effect is go, I think it's.   we're going to see largely what we saw in COVID all over again, where people want to see and interact with and talk to and hang out with people. Yeah. And I think that's going to be incredibly valuable. Yeah. I think as humans, when we shift into a mode of isolation where we're no longer interacting with other people,   and you're spending the majority of your day talking to Claude and chat GPT and building things and you probably feel a lot of dopamine. You're like, look at all the stuff I'm getting done. But you're just contributing to the problem of AI slop. If you can make it easily, so can anybody else. And so it's not just about creating more stuff with AI. That isn't really a competitive advantage. Everybody can do that. The competitive advantage really is being in person.   It's those that the wealthy will be able to afford to slow down. The wealthy and the smart will be able to afford to be able to go slow, not faster. They'll be able to spend more time with people. They'll be able to spend more time with their family. They'll be able to spend more time going deeper into building real relationships.   These relationships you have with your AI agents aren't real relationships and they're not going to create the connection that humans need. And they're not going to create the connection and the feelings that your clients need. Clients don't just need their stuff done. That's not it. They need human connection. They need trust and they need to feel safe. So alienation is going to lead to isolation.   And isolation will lead to stagnation in your business because you're not around people that are actually making moves and figuring out how to connect and make a big difference. And the thing that we've noticed, because we've been in a lot of different programs, I mean, we've been in lots of different mass, high ticket masterminds, coaching programs. spend a lot of money every year.   That's a bright thing. Yeah, we've been in all the best programs out there. We probably have been in them or connected to them or whatever. And so we've been in a lot of different programs. We invest a lot. And the thing I've noticed is we've been in a lot of these programs, but the real benefit of the programs, most significant benefit is the caliber of the people physically in the room.   It's the people that we get to meet. It's not the guru at the helm. It's not their cool content or ideas. Everybody joins for the content, but it's really, it's the people, it's the connections. It's the community that's curated. And that's one of the things that we're really shifting our awareness and focus around. I've realized that transformation always happens in the room. It doesn't happen over Zoom. Wow, that rhymes. You can all quote me on that. That's a Jason Hall written all over.   Transformation happens in the room, not on Zoom. And Zoom calls the other thing related to fake internet theory. You can ask AI about this, people. AI people, go check me on this. There's a psychological effect that watching being on Zoom calls on video and watching video training material inside of even our DoorGro Academy does not, your brain does not perceive this as real life. It perceives it as   This digital universe, it's fake. And so we've noticed our clients aren't able to just watch a video and implement or absorb it mentally the same way. And once they get in person with us and they recognize we're real people and we give them a high five or a hug or whatever, and they come to our onboarding, because we onboard every Mastermind client in person now. We also have quarterly events that we're launching.   for about two years. We've been doing that for a long time. saw the writing on Huge game changer. And we decided, hey, let's go, we can go much deeper in person. Totally. Than we can ever get to on Zoom or on a phone call. So we decided that should be one of the first things that we do with people is really get them in momentum quickly. And what's the fastest way that we can do that? We can get them in person. Yeah, cause on Zoom, it's very easy for you to look like you're cool.   It's very easy for you to look like everything's put together. Slashy lights, like YouTubers, and you can get some books and stuff in the background. You're making fun of me now? Have a pretty background. I see what's going on. You can have a boring office without cool lights. We can both play this game. Okay. So what I'm saying is...   When you're on a Zoom call with a group of your peers and business owners and people maybe you look up to, it's very easy to not give people your real situation and not reveal what's really going on. That's hard to avoid doing in person, especially if you're called out or your mentor's calling you out. That's difficult. And so you need to be in the room because you have to get real feedback. You have to share your real challenges. You need to recognize they're real people. Your brain and unconscious mind and your subconscious need   to recognize these ideas that you maybe saw in video or see on Zoom or the people you see on Zoom are real. And there's something that clicks and shifts when we get our clients in person. All of their results shift. They make more money. They have breakthroughs. And your breakthroughs are on the other side of embarrassment. One of my mentors would share. And one of our mentors would share. And that's, you have to be willing to get real.   And real and raw happens in person. It's just not going to be the same on a Zoom call or on video or even digital marketing. We're looking at how we can do less of that ourselves and do more stuff that actually creates real connection and relationship with people. Because I think anybody can do anything digitally now Let me go take some property managers out to lunch.   That's what we need to do. We need to meet people face to face and in person. do door to door. Yeah. I know. I think there's going to be a secondary effect that we're going to see a lot of things shifting back to humans. We've spent so much time over the last decade sitting in front of computer, like so many people. And I think if AI does anything well for us, it will be that it gets us out from behind the computer and actually hanging out with   human beings again. And that should be the goal. And the people that are smart are going to be focused on that. And that's why our DoorGrow Mastermind, we've shifted the priority and the focus to being an in-person mastermind. And we've seen people have great success with this, our mentors like Aaron Stokes and others have great success with this. And that's what we're wanting to replicate and emulate.   And we want people to have real relationships. We want people to have a family, a cohort of property management business owners that feel connected and are doing cool stuff. And that way you can cut through all the AI slot because everything AI puts out sounds like it's great and amazing. Every landing page looks like, yeah, this sounds like it could be awesome. And so it's hard to know if anything is real at all.   and a lot of stuff on the internet is not even real anymore. A lot of the products you see aren't even like actually real or decent products. They've just got great AI marketing and you can go buy the product for like a third of the cost on Ali Express or Alibaba or whatever. Or you can go on Amazon. Some of these products I'm seeing on Instagram, you can go buy for like $50 cheaper on these small products on Amazon. And so it like, yeah. And AI can create courses too.   Anyone can get on any AI thing and go, hey, I have this idea and have this thought and I want to create a course and then sell this course online. Build me the whole course, build me the material, me the script. everything. You can even have AI. If you don't want to do the video for the course, you don't have to. I can just do it. You can summarize it. You can do that in minutes now.   What value is there in that? The challenge is, is that there's no way to know what really works. Right. Because AI is just making stuff up based on what it has in its knowledge base. We have a lot of awesome stuff that's behind our payroll. hitting the table because every time you do, it's a whole time shakes. Yes, dear. Okay. This is going to be, if someone's watching this podcast live, I'm so sorry if you're like ceasing. It's like bouncing a little bit.   It shakes. That's me. I'm moving around so much. Many earthquakes. Seizures. Got it. No taking. Okay. Well that's how you know it's not AI, right? You're shaking the table. AI's not going to say that to me. No, AI would Claude, how do I respond to my wife? All right. Awesome. All right. yeah, so this is the idea is   We want to shift towards reality and in person because if I'm talking with a property management business owner and they say, this is what I've done and it's actually working, whereas AI will just hallucinate, it'll make stuff up, it will lie and just make everything sound amazing because somebody could say, just make this sound like it's amazing and it works and it's awesome. And it might not be. And so how do you know it's real anymore? You're going to need to be around real humans that can say, I did this.   I tried this thing. I used this AI prompt and here is the result. It wasn't great. Or this worked. And more importantly, that's a bad idea because AI doesn't want to tell you if it's a bad idea. AI is so affirming. It goes, that's such a great idea. Yeah, you should definitely do that. Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa. Are you sure? Is that going to work? Yeah, you're on the right track. Yeah, you've got this dialed in so well. And then   You could also do this and no, no, no. You're not coming up with a new idea. You're a game changer. You're not just cool. You're awesome. right. So yeah, know AI is really bad at telling people bad news. Well, I know there's people listening and they're like, well, I use this and I have this problem. I get it. Like, but yeah, chat GPT. It's But you have to you feel amazing. You have to give a prompt.   in order to make it be more honest with you, in order to make it not just affirm everything that you say. So when we think about what is the programming of it, therefore then what is the validity of it? So we have to kind of reprogram it just in order to get better output from it and better data from it. That doesn't mean it's the best data. What is great data is here's a real person. They've been there, done that.   I'm going to trust that over what AI tells me any day of the week. Yeah. And people trust AI. Like, I use AI to do research on things because I'm like, this product claim real? Is this landing page on the level? And sometimes it's like, yes. And sometimes it's like, no, this is overinflated. This study they're citing is like, misreference, whatever. There's so much BS. So now we have to use AI to combat AI to figure out what's real. But this is going to be one of the secondary effects is we need to be   connecting with human beings and we need to be in the room with real people and in person. And that's what AI should enable us to do it. It should enable more humanity. It should enable more connection, not disconnect us. okay, anything else that we want to say about this? So if you're looking for something that is a real human, and if you're looking for human connection, then we've got...   Events coming up in October. I know that by the time this will be released, you'll miss the May event. But we do have live in-person events coming up in October that you would be able to attend. They will be in the North Austin, Texas area. And one of them will be our fall intensive. This will be for our clients. If you're not yet our client, then you still have some time to figure out, you know, hey, let's just jump in and try it out.   The other one is our DorgR Live event. And we've decided in this whole AI spirit, let's get people moving through things quickly. And instead of just sitting at another conference, because there's so many of those in property management, where you just sit at a conference and you go home with 38 pages of notes and all of these ideas that you would love to do, and maybe you're going to do one of two of them, and that's about it. And then in reality,   there's all of this other good stuff and you never really got to it. But had you implemented it, it might have changed the business. So we've decided to instead shift. So it's not a conference where you're going to be sitting there in the room, taking notes and learning, which is very valuable. That's still a valuable thing. We're just making it more valuable. So we're going to have some workshops built right into it so that you can go there.   do the work, take action, and you can move your business forward. And the way that we're structuring things is it will allow you to get 30 or more days of work done in the two days at the event. And it's in person with real humans. Yeah. So I'll read a little quote from our offer document for our growth accelerator mastermind. And it says, the room where property managers stop playing small.   Most property managers are stuck trying to grow from behind a screen. Watching webinars, sitting on Zoom calls, collecting PDS they'll never read and wondering why nothing changes. And nothing changes because your environment hasn't changed. You've got to get into a different environment. Environment changes the identity. Even fish will grow to the size of the container that they're in. You need a different container if you want to grow energetically, spiritually, mentally.   I don't know, maybe physically. All right, so the DoorGrowth Growth Accelerator Mastermind, our super system level of the mastermind, which is supposed to focus more on operations for higher level operators or business owners. This is not just a course. It's not an online program. I'll be AI. It's not A, it's B. It's like, this is what actually really works. This gets you real results. And so, yeah, so come.   is come be in a seat with us in Austin. Come hang out with us. Come hang out with us. We curate and attract like the most amazing entrepreneurs. We have a new team member named Kyle who's over Client Success. And Kyle, we were just chatting the other day, him and I, and he was like, I was talking about, have really awesome clients. He's like, I know, it's so amazing the type of people you attract. Like we attract, I believe, the best people in the industry. The best humans in property management are in DoorGrowth's mastermind.   and are working with DoorGrow. And a lot of the coaches, a lot of the people out there, they're past clients of mine. Like, DoorGrow's had a significant impact. And I'm obviously a bit biased, but I believe we have the best stuff in the industry to bring to the table. And we have the most comprehensive program. We help with growth. We help with ops. Nobody else has rebranded over 300 companies. Nobody else has built, well, maybe someone's built as many websites as us, but we built hundreds, probably six, seven, 100, 800 websites.   helped people clean up their pricing. We've rolled out innovative three-tier hybrid pricing models. We're helping clients dramatically increase their profit margins. If you feel like you've heard it all and you've worked with all the other coaches, you may want to take look at DoorGrow because we have the most comprehensive. There's lots of coaches that do one little thing here or there. And there's some really great ones out there. But as far as having the most comprehensive program and I think the most innovative ideas and strategies, that's the only way you can curate and   have that is through some sort of mastermind environment and that's what we've created at DoorGrow. Okay so there's tapping me on the leg saying stop selling like let's wrap this up. Is that accurate? I interpreting things correctly? Okay. You got it. All right. And there's salespeople are gonna sell I just say I want you to win and I don't hate money so and I want you to not hate money and I want to help you make more money. All right cool. Anything else? No. All right cool.   And we will do the outro and here's what this sounds like and this will be relevant. All right.

Poy T. Granati of Summer Space Studio returns to Paper Talk Podcast for her third appearance, joining co-hosts Quynh Nguyen, Jessie Chui, and Sara Kim. If you have followed Paper Talk for a while, you will recognize Poy from Episode 8, where we first introduced her, and Episode 135, our Pinterest deep dive that is still one of our most referenced episodes for paper flower artists building organic traffic. This time she joins us from her new home in the Hudson Valley as a new mother. This conversation is the most honest one we have had about what it actually looks like to rebuild a creative business after motherhood. Poy walks us through the structural changes she made to Summer Space Studio: training two instructors to teach her workshops, narrowing her offerings to corporate workshops and brand partnerships, and using Pinterest batch-scheduling to keep her business visible during her hardest months. If you have ever wondered how to pitch corporate workshops as a paper flower artist, this episode is a masterclass. Poy shares the exact three-year follow-up email sequence that landed her a brand partnership with Hermès, breaks down the seven-follow-up rule, and explains how to tie your seasonal offerings to a brand calendar so your cold pitches feel relevant instead of random. She also gets into the corporate workshop markets most paper artists overlook: real estate buildings, breweries, residential properties, tech companies on LinkedIn, and team-building events at companies that have nothing to do with flowers. “I've been emailing Hermès for three years. Following up is the biggest part of not just getting clients, but getting comfortable talking about your offer.” - Poy The second half of the conversation moves to Substack for creative small business owners. Poy launched a new channel called Take Scenic Route, separate from Summer Space Studio, as a digital journal and creative outlet. She gets vulnerable about postpartum anxiety, the question she journaled at three in the morning that changed everything, and her dream of using Substack to build toward a tropical paper flowers book. Quynh shares her own Substack journey with Back to the Basic, and Jessie and Sara weigh in on how to add Substack to an existing creative business without doubling your workload. This is an episode for anyone in a season of figuring it out: new mothers returning to creative work, paper artists pitching corporate clients for the first time, and creative entrepreneurs wondering if their messy, unfiltered self is actually the version that connects. What You Will Hear in this Episode: Why time scarcity after motherhood can actually sharpen productivity and creative decision-making How Poy restructured her business to focus only on corporate workshops and brand partnerships The exact three-year follow-up cadence Poy used to land Hermès How to tie your seasonal offerings to a brand's calendar when cold pitching Why Pinterest batch-scheduling saved her business during early motherhood The two types of workshop clients and how to serve both How to use LinkedIn to find HR managers and book team-building gigs at tech companies Hidden corporate workshop markets: real estate, breweries, residential buildings, nursing homes Why Substack is a low-barrier alternative to Kajabi, Teachable, and Thinkific for creative entrepreneurs How to use Substack as a digital journal, blog, and newsletter without creating more work Why showing up imperfectly is the actual brand strategy Learn more about Poy In 2018, Poy T Granati founded Summer Space (translated as "a happy place") after completing her inspiring "100-days of making" project, where she crafted one flower per day for 100 days and discovered her passion for paper flower artistry. Since then, she has been dedicated to spreading joy through her exquisite and meticulously crafted paper flowers. The artistry of Summer Space has been recognized and featured on the Today Show and Adobe, and the studio has collaborated with prestigious brands such as Papersource, Helix Sleep, IBM, and Maman NYC. Summer Space is currently based out of Hudson Valley, NY.

Co dzieje się w głowie przedsiębiorcy, który w wieku trzydziestu kilku lat osiąga wolność finansową i słyszy od własnych partnerów biznesowych ofertę nie do odrzucenia?W dzisiejszym odcinku audycji „Zaprojektuj Swoje Życie” gościmy Michała Starzyka - przedsiębiorcę, inwestora i rentiera, który udowadnia, że prawdziwy sukces w biznesie mierzy się nie tylko ilością zer na koncie, ale przede wszystkim... ilością wolnego czasu w kalendarzu.Michał przeszedł niezwykłą drogę: od młodego aplikanta radcowskiego zarabiającego średnią krajową, przez budowę dynamicznego biznesu produkcyjnego generującego 25 milionów przychodu, aż po spektakularny exit z projektu prywatnego akademika na 350 miejsc. W szczerej rozmowie z Maćkiem zdradza kulisy twardych negocjacji w Paryżu, opowiada o walce z syndromem oszusta oraz o tym, dlaczego luksusowy dom i jachty przestały być jego celem.Dowiesz się także, czym różni się samotność lidera od pracy w grupie Mastermind, jak działa biznes oparty na czystych emocjach (fotografia tęczówki oka w Krakowie) oraz dlaczego kluczowe w życiu każdego dojrzałego mężczyzny jest odkrycie jednego, potężnego słowa: „WYSTARCZY”. Jeśli czujesz, że utknąłeś w pułapce ciągłego biegu po więcej i szukasz swojej „drugiej dorosłości” - ten wywiad jest właśnie dla Ciebie._________________PARTNERZY AUDYCJI - WSPÓŁPRACA KOMERCYJNA

Tune in to our weekly LIVE Mastermind Q+A Podcast for expert advice, peer collaboration, and actionable insights on success in the Probate, Divorce, Late Mortgage/Pre-Foreclosure, and Aged Expired niches!  In this week's All The Leads Mastermind, the discussion focused on the mindset and habits that help real estate investors succeed. Steve shared coaching insights for newer investors, emphasizing that everyone starts somewhere and that confidence is built through consistent action. The group explored the importance of leading with value, asking questions, and acting as a problem solver rather than a salesperson. Tim and Jim discussed the entrepreneurial mindset, the challenges of prospecting outside your comfort zone, and why successful investors focus on building relationships instead of pitching themselves. They also highlighted the "180-degree prospecting" approach, where you provide the opposite of what most competitors do by listening first and offering multiple solutions. The episode wrapped up with a preview of next week's guest and an invitation for members to bring more questions, ideas, and experiences to future mastermind sessions.  Key Takeaways:- Lead with value before selling. Focus on understanding the person's situation and offering help rather than jumping straight into a sales pitch.  - Be a trusted guide. Ask questions, uncover challenges, and present multiple options instead of pushing a single solution.  - Don't be afraid to be new. Everyone starts somewhere, and confidence grows through practice, not perfection.  - Success comes from repetition. Making calls, having conversations, and learning from experience are what build long-term results.  - Make the most of the mastermind. Arrive with questions, ideas, or challenges so you can learn from the group's experience and insights. To learn more, visit https://www.AllTheLeads.com or call (844) 532-3369 to check how many leads are available in your market. #RealEstateInvesting #LeadWithValue #EntrepreneurMindset #RealEstateProspectingPrevious episodes: AllTheLeads.com/probate-mastermindInterested in Leads?

What would it take to sell your offers without getting on a consult call? In this episode, I break down what it really takes to convert in a one-to-many model and why this skill becomes increasingly important as your business grows. I share the business readiness, mindset shifts, and self-concept changes that help coaches move from selling one person at a time to selling at scale.        I walk through the key skills required to sell without consults, including creating momentum, understanding buyer behavior, and communicating in a way that moves people to action. I also explain why selling in a one-to-many model is not simply about removing consults, but about learning an entirely different way of thinking about sales, marketing, and conversion.       I also introduce the upcoming One to Many Mastermind and share why I believe this is one of the most important skills coaches can develop on the path to multiple six figures and beyond. You'll hear how this work connects to scalable offers, business growth, and building the capacity to create larger results without relying solely on proximity-based selling.                             If you want to start making serious money as a coach, you need to check out 2k for 2k.

What would it look like to sell something that doesn't technically exist yet, with no testimonials, no returning cohort, and almost no runway? That's exactly what I've been doing this month with The Decision Room, a $12,000 six-month mastermind I built from scratch and started selling before I had a single person in it.  The most important thing I learned in the process had nothing to do with marketing tactics. It had everything to do with what was holding the offer up when there was nothing tangible behind it.  In this episode, I'm walking you through the full behind-the-scenes of this launch: what I did that most marketers would call unhinged, the moment I almost talked myself out of running it, and the one shift that changed how I sell. If your sales have felt harder lately and you can't quite name why, this episode is going to give you a sharper way to look at the problem. Timeline Highlights [00:00] – Selling a $12,000 mastermind with no cohort, no testimonials, and a launch built almost entirely on conviction [01:10] – Why launching a mastermind from zero is one of the hardest things to sell as an online business owner [01:57] – Why declining sales at the six-figure level usually isn't a tactics problem [02:42] – The two ways conviction erodes: outgrowing your offer vs. never fully committing to it [05:54] – The Decision Room Mastermind: what it is, who it's for, and why the deadline matters [09:28] – What it meant to sell this offer when the only thing holding it up was personal belief [15:54] – Breaking the marketing rules: no launch event, no runway, no existing cohort feeding renewals [38:46] – The unconventional outreach moves: cold DMs, competitor asks, former coaches, and a networking group [50:10] – What changed when I stopped pre-deciding people's answers and started asking directly Top Quotes from the Episode "You cannot sell what you have not fully decided to sell."  "When you're selling something that doesn't exist yet, the only thing carrying it in those early days is how much you believe in it." "How somebody buys from you is always a reflection of your conviction, and you can't talk your way around a belief that you don't have." "Sometimes you literally need to make less money in the short term to be faithful to the thing you're creating, so it can grow for the long run." "I stopped pre-deciding people's answers for them. I stopped assuming they'd say no. I stopped assuming they'd be weirded out. I just decided to ask." "If you can ideate something and go sell it before you've built it, you can pretty much do anything in business. That's the skill." "I named the offer after the mechanism, not the outcome, and I trusted my buyer to be smart enough to understand why that matters."

George Wright III discusses emotional control as a key differentiator between high performers and those who struggle, emphasizing that life is shaped by how you respond to circumstances rather than the circumstances themselves. He explains that emotional control isn't suppressing feelings but preventing temporary emotions from driving decisions, noting emotions provide useful information while still requiring discipline. Drawing on Stephen Covey's idea of the space between stimulus and response, he contrasts reacting automatically with responding intentionally. He offers practical strategies: build awareness by identifying triggers and separating yourself from emotions, pause before acting to avoid permanent decisions from temporary feelings, challenge the story and meaning you assign to events, and return to values by asking who you want to be in the moment. He invites listeners to share feedback via social or george@g3worldwide.com and previews upcoming topics including business, authority connections, and AI automation.00:00 Why Emotional Control Matters01:01 Emotions Versus Suppression02:45 Where Life Tests You04:34 Stimulus Response Space05:41 Awareness First06:39 Pause Before You Act07:26 Rewrite the Story08:29 Anchor to Your Values09:29 Freedom to Choose ResponseThanks for listening, and Please Share this Episode with someone.

Homeless kid. Marine for 13 years. Food blogger hiding his bulimia. Opiate addiction. Photographer. Consultant. Mastermind host. Coach… the thing he swore he'd never call himself. None of those steps connect on paper. None followed a playbook. And none of them would have worked if George had tried to follow someone else's map. This episode is for the entrepreneur whose path doesn't exist yet. Most business advice is a highlight reel written by someone who already arrived, with every dead end and pivot quietly removed.  In this solo episode, George breaks down what it actually costs to carve your own path, why following someone else's map will only take you where they went, and four practical steps to pressure-check yourself when there's no roadmap to follow. What You'll Learn In This Episode: Why playbooks written by others will only take you to where they went The three things carving your own path actually requires and costs Why curiosity is a compass, not a plan and why that's more powerful Four practical steps to navigate your path when there isn't one How to build in sprints instead of betting everything on one direction Why your people come before your audience How every seemingly unrelated skill is already accumulating into something Key Takeaways: ✔️Someone else's playbook documents the path that worked for them, in their season, with their skills. It also leaves out every dead end and pivot. You're getting a highlight reel, not a map. ✔️Carving your own path requires trusting your knowing before you have evidence. That's the cost and it demands a deep relationship with your own judgment. ✔️Curiosity is a compass, not a strategy. It keeps you oriented in the right direction even when the path isn't clear. ✔️You have to be willing to look different. People who built conventional careers will see your detours as warning signs. They're speaking from their path, not yours. ✔️Follow what won't leave you alone. The problem you can't stop thinking about, the conversation you never tire of, that's a direction, not a guarantee, but it's where to start. ✔️Build in 60–90 day sprints, not five-year commitments. Measure energy and alignment, not just revenue. ✔️Find your people before you find your audience. You need a feedback loop before you need clients. ✔️Trust the accumulation. Every skill, every pivot, every unexpected season is adding up, even when you can't see the final picture yet. ✔️The unconventional path doesn't handicap you. It makes you irreplaceable. Timestamps & Highlights: [00:00] — George's path on paper: homeless to Marine to blogger to coach, none of it connected [01:18] — Burn the playbooks: who this episode is actually for [03:30] — The problem with following someone else's map [05:30] — What carving your own path actually costs: trust, curiosity, and willingness to look different [08:00] — Curiosity as a compass, not a plan and why that's more valuable [10:30] — Being willing to look different when others don't understand your path [13:00] — Step 1: Follow what won't leave you alone [15:30] — Step 2: Build in sprints, not marathons, George's current 90-day experiment [18:00] — Step 3: Find your people before you find your audience [20:30] — Step 4: Trust the accumulation, your path is already adding up [22:00] — George's full career arc as proof: every step was building something [23:30] — The permission slip, the one question, and the closing challenge Your Challenge This Week: If this landed, there's one question to answer, just between you and you: What is the one next step you already know is right, even if you can't see what comes after it?

Tune in to our weekly LIVE Mastermind Q+A Podcast for expert advice, peer collaboration, and actionable insights on success in the Probate, Divorce, Late Mortgage/Pre-Foreclosure, and Aged Expired niches! Today's episode focuses on strategies for working late mortgage leads, maintaining long-term follow-up, and using technology to stay connected with prospects throughout extended decision-making cycles. Much of the discussion centers on how to approach late mortgage conversations without creating defensiveness, emphasizing value-driven outreach, relationship-building, and positioning yourself as a trusted resource rather than leading with a homeowner's financial challenges. The coaches share practical prospecting approaches, including circle prospecting techniques, home value conversations, and other low-pressure methods for opening meaningful dialogue. The conversation also explores the challenge of staying visible with prospects who initially engage but later become unresponsive, leading to a broader discussion about follow-up systems, drip campaigns, marketing funnels, and digital tools that help agents remain top-of-mind until prospects are ready to act. Throughout the episode, a recurring theme is that consistent communication, patience, and providing genuine value are often more important than any single script or marketing tactic. Ultimately, the discussion reinforces that building trust, staying visible, and creating effective follow-up systems are key to converting leads into long-term opportunities.  Key Takeaways: - How to approach late mortgage leads without creating defensiveness or resistance.  - Why leading with value and curiosity builds more trust than focusing on financial distress.  - Practical prospecting techniques, including circle prospecting and home value conversations.  - The importance of consistent follow-up when prospects become unresponsive or go quiet.  - How marketing funnels, drip campaigns, and digital tools can help keep you top-of-mind.  - Why long-term success comes from combining patience, visibility, and relationship-based communication. To learn more, visit https://www.AllTheLeads.com or call (844) 532-3369 to check how many leads are available in your market.  #LateMortgageLeads #LeadGeneration #RealEstateProspecting #RelationshipMarketingPrevious episodes: AllTheLeads.com/probate-mastermindInterested in Leads?

Frequently Asked Questions Q: Will AI replace pet sitters? A: No. AI can't replace the trust, judgment, and relationships a pet sitter builds with clients and their pets. People hire a pet sitter for the human behind the business. What changes is that pet sitters who refuse to use AI will fall behind the ones who do, because AI now handles the marketing, content, and admin work faster. The work in the field stays human. The work behind the scenes is what gets transformed. Q: Will AI replace dog walkers? A: No. Dog walking is a hands-on, in-person service that AI simply cannot perform. What AI changes is the business side: scheduling, client communication, and marketing. Dog walkers who adopt AI get time back and reach more clients, while the actual walking stays exactly what it has always been. Q: Do I need AI in my pet business? A: Yes, as a tool. Bella compares ignoring AI in 2026 to refusing to use a computer or a cell phone in your business. It's no longer optional if you want to stay competitive. You don't have to automate everything overnight, but you do need basic AI literacy and a willingness to get in the sandbox and play. Q: What is “AI slop” and why is it bad for my business? A: AI slop is generic, lifeless content that looks obviously machine-made: stock-looking graphics, copy with none of your keywords, and posts that could belong to any business in any town. It's bad because it doesn't carry your unique value, it doesn't help your SEO, and it can actually put potential clients off. Good AI use takes your secret sauce, your tone, and your words, and makes them sharper, not generic. Q: How can a pet business owner start using AI? A: Start small and get curious. Pick one repetitive task, like writing a press release or building anQuestions? Ask Bella before you guess. | Bella in Your Business | jumpconsulting.net | Keep jumping! SOP, and use AI to do the first draft. The goal early on is not perfection, it's playing in the sandbox and learning what's possible. From there, build AI into your content, your hiring, and your website so it works for you in the background.

And I've done a lot of thinking about it. I have done writing about it, I have outlined it. I've even recorded this actual podcast twice already and decided to just like throw it all away. So right now it's I'm just gonna talk to you. I do have a little bit of an outline, and I Do not apologize ahead of time if I go off into tangents, because this is gonna be one of those episodes like when I was on my road trip and I talked to you and it's just gonna be me and you. I even thought about like moving my whole rig out to my living room and sitting on the couch with my big furry blanket because it just kind of felt like that was the feeling I wanted to come across with. But I digress. Hi, this is Bella with Bella in your business, the 270th episode. I'm sorry, not 270, 470th episode. What? I think it's a good place to start because I have had a lot of evolution as I hope that you have two in your life. And I hope that your evolution has or I want to encourage your evolution, your future evolution to be self-led instead of things are happening to me. I believe that we can make things happen for ourselves, but that we have to have a conscious mind. in order to do it and not be stuck in groundhog day every single day doing the same thing over and over. Cause that's just the way that we do it, right? Like I believe that we all need to think about our reactions and and our responses. And that there's Rumi said that there's power between what happens and our response. There's that that little window there. And the more we can create that, we have more of an opportunity to think. And that's a really great way to set up everything I'm about to tell you today. Bella (02:07.602) back in 2022, I'm gonna go all the way back there. I feel like I was like four different versions of myself. But I was I maybe I should start 2018. I started the mastermind and I started better marketing with Bella. Okay. And what we did is in the mastermind, it was the first mastermind ever and in our industry. And the way it was set was that what it was back then is not what it is today. and it's by design because we've evolved and things have changed. And I don't believe in teaching the same thing over and over and over again. I believe in evolving with the world and how people buy and how people receive information and just everything. Marketing with Bella has been evolving. It first started where we only had six people and we would create things for them that we don't necessarily we didn't create years later because Social media changed. And so we started providing videos and we started doing all this other stuff. And then social media keeps changing. And so the program kept changing. and so all of this change is necessary a necessity because things that worked a couple of years ago aren't gonna work now, and that's even more so. It's like how agile, like how much can you bend and ebb and flow to things? But you have to be seeing that this stuff is happening. So back in 2022, the crack happened. My team was already secretly using what we called Jarvis, which it was to help us write some blogs and scripts and things. and by the end of 2022, the November 2022, the last week, it was like Thanksgiving-ish. Chat GPT came online. And I was one of the first million people to join. At the recording of June 8th today, they announced last week that there's now one billion with a B. Beef or boy, people using Chat GPT. And it is historically the fastest growing app software ever. And it has taken on like a firestorm. As you probably know, you probably have a login for it. and so that happened, and it was like, ooh, what's this nice new shiny thing? You know, there's so many people making predictions, and but the predictions were still, you know, the predictions are the predictions, but the timeline. Bella (04:32.29) was the hard part to nail in. And I'm listening to all these amazing thought leaders. And that was when I started listening to podcasts and following people way smarter than me and following these tech companies and paying attention to their announcements and the commentary that comes from it. And in 2023 in the mastermind, I had Dustin who created Magi. I knew Dustin from all of my social media marketing days and speaking on stages around the world because he too Was a marketer who would start like lots of different companies. And finally, you know, Magi comes together fast forward to today in 2026. It's wildly amazing and helps tons of people. what Magi does is it takes all the LLMs, put it under one roof. So you only have one login, one password, and one price. Instead of paying $20 for like five different things, it's one. and I had him come into the mastermind to talk to us about AI because he was engulfed

In this episode of The Modern Hairstylist Podcast, Hunter Donia and Jodie Brown explore a concept that hits differently depending on where you are in your business journey: the Dunning-Kruger effect, and what it actually means for hairstylists and beauty entrepreneurs trying to grow.Hunter gets candid about his own spiral after watching a TikTok that made him question whether his confidence in his work was a sign of expertise or a blind spot. What came out of that conversation with Jodie was something a lot of high performers will recognize: the early stages of business reward bold, fearless action, and the more you learn, the harder it gets to move fast. This episode unpacks both sides of that tension and what to do about it.Key Takeaways:
