  Speaker 1: I got my good friend, brad Krepfel.
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: Now Brad is a powerhouse and I was on my journey when I had my first mentor.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: I basically had a spiritual teacher is what I I thought I was getting into signing up a life coach, but it was really a spiritual teacher and he put me on my spiritual path.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: And when I started coaching, I wanted to work and I would say that I took the spiritual seeds and I just freaking ran with them and I couldn't the spiritual fruit and I just ran with it.
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: I couldn't get enough and it changed my life.
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: And when I started mentoring folks, I wanted to work with a spiritual warrior and when I started to look at some of Brad Krepfel's soul sciences is human design, gene keys, these are.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: These are things that I utilize to help understand who the individual is that I'm working with so I can help them in the perfect way.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: But when I started, when I started working with with Brad, I realized that I had my spiritual warrior.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: Brad is phenomenal.
• 1:06

  Speaker 1: Welcome to the Inner Wealth Podcast, where we learn and choose to live inspired each and every day.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you why I'm pumped.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: This guy right here, brad Krupfel.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: We met at a mastermind intensive retreat weekend years ago and we started working together and it's like the universes collide.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Our universes collide and we realized in a lot of cases we're like the same person, but just different.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: Some of the traits, some of the things that Brad loves, I love.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Some of the things that I love Brad loves.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: We recognize that we were spiritual brothers that are here to work with people and help them get the very, very best out of themselves in life.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: The cool part is Brad didn't see this in the beginning and I saw it clearly.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: And now Brad is stepping into all of this and I think there was a lot of doubt and some shame and some things that Brad was working through.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: But I saw it very, very early and I use some woo-woo fricking tools called soul sciences, human design and Gene Keys.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: And Brad, I remember when I pulled up your Gene Keys profile and I said you know what I've always wanted to work with a spiritual warrior and I got one and you were it.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: You were number one man.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: I am so excited to have you here, brother.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: Welcome to the show and welcome to Facebook Live.
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: Thank you, I appreciate it and I'm excited to be here too.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: I knew this day was coming eventually, and it's just here it is.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I think it was last week, brad said, and maybe one day.
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: And I was like well, it's one day, let's go.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: There's no reason to hold this thing off, brad, introduce yourself, tell us, tell everybody where you're from, what you're doing, and let's start setting up some of the transformation that you made, because it has been a transformation.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Your life hasn't changed, it's transformed, so go ahead and set that up a little bit.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so I'm from Woodland Hills, utah, so I live up in the mountains of Utah.
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: I love the outdoors and a lot of time out in the sun, the snow, whatever the seasons are.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: Adventure is it calls my name every day.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: So you can find me on everything I can that I can find with two wheels mountain biking, dirt bikes, motorcycles.
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: And fitness is another thing that's very, very key to me Spend a lot of time in the gym and working on myself, and I quickly found through my fitness journey how much that also helps me with my mental capacity and my mental abilities.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: So that's, uh, really what gets me in the gym.
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: And now I got the physical attributes that, uh, are benefits from spending all the time in the gym.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: So, um, yeah, I did it to kind of set up and queue up the transformation.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: Just just a handful of years ago when we met at that mastermind it was a real estate focused mastermind and I was really getting into real estate investing and really trying to hone in on that opportunity that I still see a lot of value in.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: Quickly, after working through that and having some success there, I was just going through a lot of I guess you'd call them internal challenges and I wasn't quite sure how to approach them and I was looking for different ways to understand them, to be guided through them and just really, what's holding me back?
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: Where are these struggles coming from?
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: Where are these challenges coming from?
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: And that's when we aligned I mean, right after the mastermind, we we kicked it off and we met in person.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: We stayed in touch via Facebook and eventually I'm just like I'm going to it's time to work with Mike, you know.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: So that's that's how we ended up working together.
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: True, your, your life.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: Um, you're not the same person that I met and it's funny.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: I went, I did my five mile run today and you just said something else, that we didn't set this up.
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: But you just said something else Today I, on my mastermind call with Interwealth Global Mastermind, I set up that there are six.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: I gave them six tools to help, like, hone your mind and your emotions, and then, when I was on my run today, I said, wait a minute, there's seven and that's physical fitness, like the more, the more clean and clear you are from a physical perspective, the more clean and clear you are from a mental and emotional perspective.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: So that's another area of overlap that we set up without even trying.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: So so, brad, talk about you know, when we, when we first met, you were in a really dark place and a darker place, and I don't want to stay here, but there are definitely people out there that are in that same space.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: Man, and connect with that a little bit.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: Tell them where you were mentally and emotionally.
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: You know, the biggest challenge to that for me was I didn't realize where I was.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: I knew that I was seeking more and, honestly, I was kind of masking it with the let's call it the focus on my personal development, actually, better said, my professional development.
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: So I started looking into coaching and everything for more of just a professional attribute, just going, hey, I want to grow, I want to get better.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: And then I quickly saw that, as I was continuing to learn things on a professional side, that a lot of people within these, these worlds, were actually pulling in a lot of the personal development, you know.
• 7:37
  Speaker 2: And I'm like wait, you know I signed up for this.
• 7:39
  Speaker 2: Why are we doing this?
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: Like focus on, why are we talking about meditation?
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: Where are we doing this?
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: And that you know.
• 7:44
  Speaker 2: And I quickly saw that, you know, I was missing a key component and that was working within, working on the inner side of myself.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: And it wasn't until I started diving into that personal development that I find kind of that darkness and kind of those shadows and things that I was facing, unknowingly, you know, they just became, they were part of who I was and I'd say one of the natural attributes I have is just to kind of look at pain from it through a different lens and maybe not even recognize it anymore, kind of just shove it away.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: You know, so it's once I started to identify these things that's kind of opened up the depths of it and brought in a little bit more of the darkness.
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: You know, that's one thing I would say about personal development, is it?
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: It gets a little rocky at times.
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: Right, it gets, it gets heavy and cause you start uncovering these things that you weren't even aware of.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: So that's that was the biggest thing.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: Is it brought a ton of awareness to me of what was going on internally that was affecting my external world and that led me to diving in deeper and deeper on that focus of things and led to the transformation that we're speaking of.
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and sometimes people just say.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: People just say, you know, there's some worry, doubt, fear, insecurity, some inadequacies, some levels of some stories of insignificance and they just say, well, that's who I am.
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: Like, that's not who you are, that's like we got some work to do.
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: Let's, because that's not who you are, let's let go of that shit.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: And I think that's what you're talking about in terms of when you start really reflecting on those stories that are in there, you start to see the pain that's inside, that you just identify Well, that's just who I am and that's how I operate.
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: And we think that sometimes they're motivators.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: But when we really get in there and start cleaning these beliefs up and start cleaning these stories up, life becomes really fun.
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: It becomes, it becomes a lot juicier, right, and we shift from doing things out of insecurity and inadequacy and significance and start to move into an inspired place, something that's aligned with our life path, and that's the shift you made.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: That's the shift you made.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: So what?
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: What has that done to your professional development and to your relationship with your wife and your kids?
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: development and to your relationship with your wife and your kids.
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: Okay, so, from the professional development is, it's just really opened my eyes to, as you just called it, the the you know, the juicier, funner side of things is I.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: I felt I was already having a lot of fun within my professions and then I also found that maybe I was forcing a lot of things that came up a lot with me.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: Uh, forcing a lot of things to go a very specific way, and once I realized that I can still be successful without forcing a predetermined outcome that really brought back the creative aspect of things.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: I found that when I was forcing a lot, it really hindered my creativity and it really messed with, it made me a bit more indecisive.
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: Right, because I was maybe over analyzing things and from more of a probably from a form of protection is how I'd say it is because of my upbringing and things that I became aware of throughout this process is I was in it at a young age I was working on, I was always responsible for kind of taking care of myself and making sure I had to make ends meet on a lot of just simple things and tasks that not everybody has to do at that age, right, and it it served me for a while and it led me to a in a great way, but it's.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: I quickly found, hey, these, these things are no longer serving me, right.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: So that really gave me a lot more capacity in life Once I started to let go of these things that didn't serve me and then I can hone in and focus on these other aspects, like my relationship to, to increase and dive into that.
• 11:26
  Speaker 2: So with the relationship with my wife, I mean, to be honest, I would have told you before I started doing any of this work I thought I already had an eight.
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: I thought I had the best relationship.
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: I was married to my friend.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: We have three amazing kids, we have a home of our dreams.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: I mean, things are going great, you know, and we didn't argue, we didn't fight, and there was a lot of inner work that I needed to do first then to be able to bring it out and give her a new level of safety that I didn't know I wasn't providing, and so she could be comfortable to open up herself.
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: And that was the biggest thing that I realized is, unknowingly, in our relationship, she had a form of feeling unsafe that didn't allow her to completely open up into her feminine and into herself.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: And by me working on myself I've been able to really allow her to open up and see how that benefits everybody around me.
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: So just working on myself, I've been shocked to see how beneficial that's been for everybody that's in my circle.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Right, and there's an element sometimes and I was in a place in my marriage as well there's an element where there's something I think I need to be okay, so I put pressure on her, my wife and I put pressure on her, and which ultimately makes her feel unsafe, which takes away her ability to actually deliver what I'm asking for, and it kind of paralyzed her and and I saw a little bit of that and let's, let's be clear, brad didn't clear all this with just me.
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: Brad's part of other coaching groups too, and other communities of men, and had surrounded himself with a lot of really healthy men and and his wife also surrounded herself with a lot of really healthy women.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: So you know, you become who you surround yourself with.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: So it's, it goes farther and deeper than just our work together.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: This is something.
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: This is like a lifelong adventure for you to really unpack who you are, who you are not who you say you are.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: And it's been a spiritual journey, and that's when I said the spiritual warrior, that's exactly what I meant.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: It's your ability to get inside of you and analyze and be truthful and be honest with who you really are and start letting go of the stories of who you're not, and I know it's had a huge, huge impact on your life.
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: But not everybody is as hungry as you are, brad, and that's what makes you that warrior.
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: So let's talk about your fitness for a second, because here's, here's what I see.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: I see a guy that's all tatted up, right, used to have more of a Mohawk, so less of a Mohawk now, but big ass arms, big ass legs.
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: And when I, when I picture you you're running up fricking mountains, tell us about your physical adventures that you enjoy.
• 14:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean again.
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: The physical adventure started, uh, probably nine to 10 years ago.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: I realized that I was putting on some weight and I wasn't able to do the hobbies that I wanted to at the best of their ability.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: That, combined with the fact that I just had my third child and it was very important to me to be able to keep up with my kids.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: I didn't want to be one of those fathers that came home every day after work, was exhausted, sat on the couch all day watching TV, drinking beer and that's that right.
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: I really wanted to be active with my kids and be able to encourage them to be active, and so that's where my fitness journey started and, as I kind of alluded to earlier, is I quickly noticed how much it helps me beyond the physical aspect and what it did for mental clarity and really helping me there, you know, kind of calm the storm and everything did for mental clarity and and really helping me there, you know, kind of calm the storm and everything.
• 15:00
  Speaker 2: So since then, fast forwarding to now, I've really, really honed in on my foot fitness because I've seen again the benefits.
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: It's like the more focus I put on my, my fitness, the more capacity I have for more things in the rest of my life which I think is very important to put in front of people's faces, because a lot of people put off the gym because they don't have the time or, again, it doesn't have to be the gym any form of physical fitness you love to run, right, I mean just getting out there and exerting yourself and doing something good for yourself physically.
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: It's amazing how much more capacity that gives you for the rest of your day and it really opens up a lot more time per se.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: It's funny.
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: It consumes some time, sure, but then the alertness and everything else that's going on within just makes you that much more productive on every other element of life.
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: And I mean and it's not just production from work, I mean even the way you can show up with your family, the way you show up with your friends.
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: I mean it's 100% correlated and it's been a huge benefit to me and which is why I'm consistently putting focus on that.
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: Right now, and to finish that up, I'm at the end of a 12-week program that I actually put together myself utilizing artificial intelligence.
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: I'm currently the leanest I've ever been, the most muscular I've ever been and by far the best shape I've ever been, at 39 years old and not too far away from 40.
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: So that's my goal is to go into my forties, uh, in the best shape I've ever been.
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: That would a great segue, and we've got a little bit of audio like disruption here, so we'll try to work through that, but that's a great segue.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: So, AI, AI you you just wrote a book about AI and you're utilizing AI.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: You're at like your tip of spear and you're utilizing AI in a lot of different dimensions and a lot of different areas of your life and you're using it creatively.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Tell us a little bit about your adventures in AI and kind of how you got that spark right.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: So the spark started as soon as I was aware of what AI was.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: I'm very into tech, I love those kinds of things, I love new tools and I was, like most people, I wasn't sure where to start with it.
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: You know, you start to jump online and you get bombarded with millions of apps that they're trying to sell you things in-app purchases, all this kind of stuff.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Wasn't even sure where to go.
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: Obviously, they're trying to sell you things.
• 17:17
  Speaker 2: In-app purchases, all this kind of stuff.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: Wasn't even sure where to go.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: Obviously, openai from ChatGPT is very, very popular.
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: It's been the market leader for the longest stretch of time.
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: I finally found what I was looking for in terms of that, just started playing with it.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: Just okay, hey, what is this?
• 17:28
  Speaker 2: What can this do?
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: Started, like most people, just playing around, asking it goofy questions, making some funny images with the kids, you know, and kind of went from there, and it wasn't until I came across an Instagram story, a prompt that really opened up my mind to what AI is capable of, and that's where I went with.
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: This book is I want this whole book is designed around giving people thought provoking ways to use it, or just maybe this is that one thing they need to hear or see that is going to open it up into their mind of, wow, if it can do that, it can do this.
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: And so what that example was is they were utilizing a business example where they said, hey, I'm going to explain my business to you and this is what I'm looking to do in my social media engagement, but now I want you to ask me questions about my business to do that.
• 18:18
  Speaker 2: So, um, that's where it all came from.
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: Um is being able to ask it questions about what you're looking to produce.
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: And then that really made me go wait a second.
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: If it can ask me questions and then my responses are going to give it the details on my business, how is this any different than working with a professional in this space, another human in this space?
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: Right, so that's what really opened up my mind to it, to where it's like, wow, if it's capable of that, how about this, how about this?
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: And it just led me down the rabbit hole to where I'm at today.
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: So what is?
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: Give us an example.
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: What's the coolest thing that you've ever had?
• 18:56
  Speaker 2: it like query you about to create, like just pick one okay, um, you know, honestly, the the decision to write the book, so I put it into chat gbt.
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: I had a couple ideas and some things that I've really been wanting to bring to life, a lot of creative aspirations, and one of them is I'm very, very disciplined and I have a lot of creative aspirations, and one of them is I'm very, very disciplined and I have a lot of consistency in my life.
• 19:20
  Speaker 2: That's one of my biggest strengths is my discipline.
• 19:22
  Speaker 2: So I've had the idea of writing a program about helping people cultivate discipline within and utilizing the tools that I had.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: I've been working on it for a little bit, had a lot of different things going on in my life pulling me different directions, and then, as I was continuing to develop my AI knowledge, I had the idea of writing the book because I just I quickly realized there's a lot of people out there that could benefit from hearing the way that I engage with AI to help them and find ways that they can use it.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: So, in short, I went to ChatGPT, gave it both of my concepts and asked it to do the market research for me what is the most viable thing and what should I bring out to market first?
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: And it was amazing.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: I mean, it literally gave me pros and cons, it made graphs and charts and did all this segment analysis, which it actually the funny thing is.
• 20:14
  Speaker 2: I think it's very important to share.
• 20:15
  Speaker 2: Its first response was telling me to do all these things.
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: Hey, you should do market research, you should do this, you should do that.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: Then I go wait a second, I'm talking to AI.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: You do this.
• 20:24
  Speaker 2: And it spit it all out in one massive response and it was clear as day While these are both very viable and they will do very well, this is why you should start with the book first, focusing on AI, and that's where it led me to now, and I just took the action and I got a book out.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: That's super cool, yeah.
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: And I met up.
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: This is before I knew Brad was involved in AI.
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: I met up with another AI guy and he took I paid him a little money and he took all of my blogs, all of my podcasts, all of my books and a shit ton of content and programmed ChatGPT to act and speak and know my content.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: And it's called Mike Kitko AI and I'm actively using it in my business for the creative side, and Brad and I connected on this right before we jumped on, because I'm on the podcast episode that just launched today.
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: I said it was talking about the or not today, maybe last week but it talked about the creative process.
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: When I'm ready to write a chapter or a blog, I speak into my AirPods, then I take that and transcribe it, and then I take that and put it through my Kitco AI to clean it up and edit it and I've got like a book close to be being finished and blogs.
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: That's how I write my blogs now.
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: So it's I'm I'm gifted at spoken word and since I'm gifted that way, why would I sit behind a typewriter and type?
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: It just doesn't make any sense.
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: Use what you're good at.
• 21:53
  Speaker 1: So how about, like what what's?
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: You know, this may not be the most effective needle moving thing, but this is something that I felt had a big impact for my family.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: So one of the things that I noticed once I realized how to create custom GPTs, which is what you're discussing, is a trained GPT to know about you, or a very specific topic, subject, whatever it may be Right, and I love to solve problems.
• 22:25
  Speaker 2: And I just gotten aware of how to create these gpts at this time and I was like I was excited to put something to use.
• 22:32
  Speaker 2: And at that time my wife was uh complaining a little bit about a struggle and a challenge that she had with being the, the house giver or house care.
• 22:42
  Speaker 2: Uh, she handles all her groceries and she handles her dinners and everything there, so it's family meal planning.
• 22:47
  Speaker 2: She was just struggling.
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: She's like man it's.
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: It's so discouraging to put all this work into it every Sunday to plan out all these weeks, and every dinner we have somebody who's upset or we have somebody who it's missed out on or maybe I missed the mark here, you know.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: And so what I did is I went to chat to BT and created a custom GPT to become our family meal planner, and I'm sure a lot of people have played with a Chad GPT and you could say, hey, create me a recipe, this and that.
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: But that wasn't enough for me.
• 23:13
  Speaker 2: I mean, we wanted something that was really curated to our family.
• 23:16
  Speaker 2: So I told it what I was looking to accomplish and then asked it for feedback on how to accomplish it.
• 23:22
  Speaker 2: And, in short, what it did is.
• 23:23
  Speaker 2: It suggested that I create a custom Google form that my, each of my family members could fill out that goes over their dietary preferences.
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: So it spit out an idea of what I should do.
• 23:34
  Speaker 2: Then I go well, wait a second.
• 23:35
  Speaker 2: Again, I'm talking to you create the form for me so I could just copy and paste it into this form.
• 23:41
  Speaker 2: And it did it.
• 23:42
  Speaker 2: So I didn't have to do all the radio buttons and make this whole thing.
• 23:46
  Speaker 2: It made it importable right into a Google form.
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: I sent that to each of my children and my wife and myself.
• 23:51
  Speaker 2: We all filled them out.
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: Then I was able to put all that data per person into a custom GPT.
• 23:57
  Speaker 2: So now it's trained on their dietary preferences.
• 23:59
  Speaker 2: And then I've decided, hey, let's take it one step further.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: I've been macro tracking for my fitness needs, and so I was able to see what our very frequent on.
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: Hey, this is a 4.3, you know rating for the family, so this is a good one that you could have once a week or whatever.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: It may be Right.
• 24:32
  Speaker 2: So now Amanda could jump on there on a Sunday and just say, okay, hey, this is what we actually consumed last week.
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: It could go as far as saying Brad's going to be out of town this day for this reason, so we don't have to worry about his dietary needs on that day.
• 24:47
  Speaker 2: And it'll spit out tons of suggestions and you just find tweaking from there.
• 24:50
  Speaker 2: But it just it's.
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: It's the amount of time it saves and just removes all this mental bandwidth.
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: It's it's amazing, that's fantastic.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: How many of these things do you have that are in use on a regular basis?
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: Uh, probably two dozen at the moment.
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: Two dozen, holy cow Cause.
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: I was thinking I, I thought I remember you saying the word nine, but two dozen.
• 25:10
  Speaker 1: It just keeps getting bigger.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: It does.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: When did you, when did you catch the bug?
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Like?
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, do you remember when you caught the bug and you saw the?
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: But like, because for me, ai went from a concept to be scared of to you.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: You know, I start like you start asking silly questions and all of a sudden I've got one that's speaking like me.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: When, when did when was that moment that you knew that you were going to?
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: You know it was going to be a path for you to pursue, not just a tool to use.
• 25:41
  Speaker 2: It actually was.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: Just December last year is when it really became evident that this is, this is much more than just a little app on my phone that I'm going to use every once in a while.
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: That I just saw how it just connected with the way that I think and the way that I like to accomplish things.
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: I mean, much like the example you just used, that you're gifted in the spoken word, so why spend all this time using a tool that's not your strength?
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: And I quickly saw how this just my mind and the way I think just aligned with what AI is doing and the way it's going.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: So it was December last year when I really dove in and started to open it up, went to a certification class in January as well to just really open up my mind to what tools already exist, how they're working, how to best correlate with them.
• 26:29
  Speaker 2: I have since joined also a mastermind for AI as well.
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: So we're doing weekly calls and I mean that's almost overwhelming with how much that stuff's changing.
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: I mean it's every week.
• 26:39
  Speaker 2: It's like the updates of what just came out feels like what you would think would take three to four months to do and it's just in a week, right.
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: So it just it started in December and I haven't let off since and I just that's where my book title came from is AI everyday guide, and it's just.
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: It's really emphasizing just utilizing AI every day and why that's going to benefit you is because just using it as, say, a search engine, instead of using Google, just just use that prompt that ask it what you're looking, that you typically use on Google, and you're going to get examples of how it works and then you're going to be able to utilize it in different ways.
• 27:17
  Speaker 2: You're going to be like wow, I didn't think of using it this way Instead of just Googling.
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: Uh, you're looking for a product and you want to do comparisons.
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: You can do it right there and you're going to remove all the burden of searching through a million websites, going through all the ads.
• 27:30
  Speaker 2: I mean, it will do the work for you and what's amazing about it is just like an employee or a colleague or anything.
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: If it doesn't give you what you're looking for, then you just need to set the expectation and give it a little bit more details of what you're looking for, and it doesn't quit.
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: You know, it'll just keep going until you get what you want.
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: So that's the rabbit hole that I started in December and I haven't got out of it yet.
• 27:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I keep finding more uses for it and find more value in it and find more ways to and I'm just dealing with one GPT.
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: Right, so you're dealing with frigging two dozen.
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: Right, so you're dealing with frigging two dozen, but what, like, what are you in your?
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: I know you just launched a book, what?
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: What does the next phase of Brad's life look like on the AI journey and how you help people with it?
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so that's still being developed right now and again, you know we've we've worked together for a little bit.
• 28:27
  Speaker 2: Instead of trying to force something in an idea that I have, I'm trying to leave myself very open to where this journey is going to bring me.
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: What I do foresee, and where things are already kind of pulling me, is I plan to create some different kind of video courses for people who are looking for that.
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: I want a little bit more depth than what the book provides.
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: I'm also looking in and have already started doing some one-on-one consulting and maybe coaching, even similar to like you've worked with on getting a custom GPT for somebody that needs that, and just really, right now I'm just having a blast engaging with people and having these open dialogues and discussions and seeing where it takes things, because that's really allowing me to see other people's perceptions and what they need and what I can offer them to kind of close the gap.
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and for you and I'm just doing a little bit of brainstorming right now it's almost like you know, do it yourself, do it with a group, or do it with you right, or do it with you right Different offerings for, for this AI stuff, where maybe there's just a container of learning that that you, you know, that you, you populate, that you fill up, or maybe there's some done for you services that you provide, and I'm not.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: You've got a lot of I mean, your tip is spear man and you've got a lot of opportunity to really, um, to really help a lot of people and and and do really well for yourself too with the knowledge that you've attained.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: I do want to make something else notable that or you said it right, and this is this is you, brad, when, when there's something you want, you have no problems investing in yourself and joining masterminds and going to you know, training programs and things like that.
• 30:05
  Speaker 1: So when, when there's a nugget of insight and the entrepreneurial journey is all about the cheat code and you're always after the cheat code, you're always after, like that.
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: The image I get in my mind is when you go to the, the um, uh, the airport, that like escalator that's in the middle of the floor, like you just get on the escalator and when you're walking you can just walk faster, right, you don't get on it and stop, you just keep walking and you get there faster, like that's what you do with education and that's why you're you're advanced and that's why you're in this space, absolutely so how, so?
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: How can people get ahold of you right now?
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: If they need, if they need some something systematized, if they want to learn more, if they want something programmed in the AI space, where can they get a hold of you and where can they find your book?
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: Okay, so the best way to get a hold of me right now is just social media.
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: So my name, brad Kretfel Spelling's a little difficult there, but we'll get some links out there, I'm sure, and you can also find my book on Amazon, which has all my contact information, has a QR code for additional resources as well, and we're still finalizing the website, but RideStrategiescom that is live right now, so it at least does have a way to contact me through there as well.
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: And say that again RideStrategiescom.
• 31:20
  Speaker 2: RideStrategies sorry so R-I-D-E Strategiescom.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: RideStrategiescom R-I-D-E strategiescom RIDestrategiescom.
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: That's where you can access Brad and kind of get a flavor for him, get into his ecosystem so that you can take advantage and leverage AI as well.
• 31:43
  Speaker 2: Brad is there anything else that you want to share with the listeners, with the watchers, with the audience, that you haven't there is?
• 31:48
  Speaker 2: There's one more message that I think will resonate with a lot of your audiences, because this is something that you put a big emphasis on is the power of clarity.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: And, uh, you know, when we work together, I kept beating my head against the wall and just going, mike, what's the damn answer?
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: You know where, like, I'm not getting the clarity, I'm not seeing this and and there's so many different ways that it comes to you right and for me, clarity in having this digital ally chat, gbt or AI has really helped me find a form of clarity, because anytime that I had some indecision or a question or I wanted to analyze something, it's readily available 24-7 whenever I need it.
• 32:25
  Speaker 2: Right, available 24-7 whenever I need it, and it's important that you don't look at it as like its response is always the clear-cut answer.
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: I'm the type that where I'm always going to go in a little deeper.
• 32:34
  Speaker 2: If I don't completely understand it or don't completely resonate with it, I'm going to ask it for the questions and continue.
• 32:40
  Speaker 2: So I just want to encourage people to use this resource as another way to just get that daily clarity that you may be looking for on any topic that you're looking for and just continue to engage with it a little bit every day.
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: So I would start a conversation, potentially just calling it clarity, and go back to it every day and further your conversation with it.
• 33:03
  Speaker 2: Further the questioning, give it more answers, ask it to ask you questions and I think you'd be shocked how quick it will help you align with what you're looking for so you can take those further steps.
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: And what that's really helped me for is even you mentioned investing in yourself and the masterminds and everything there.
• 33:20
  Speaker 2: You're going to get so much more impact in those areas when you have already kind of figured out your clarity in those areas when you have already kind of figured out your clarity.
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and clarity is ever changing, right as as our, as as we evolve and grow as entrepreneurs, as human beings, so does our clarity and so does our vision.
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: So it's just staying ever present and staying evergreen with that, making sure that it doesn't own you that, that you, you take an opportunity to own your vision and own your clarity.
• 33:47
  Speaker 1: Brad, it's been a lot of fun having you here, brother.
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: Let's do this again, and we'll come back when you release books number two through 100.
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: And as you launch new things and as you learn more about AI, I'd love to have you back so you can share it with the world.
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: Awesome, I appreciate it, Mike, Really do Awesome guys, hey, thanks everybody, everybody for joining us today and I hope you got to know Brad a little bit, the spiritual warrior man.
• 34:19
  Speaker 2: You were my first.
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: I appreciate it, man, and it's been an awesome journey and we're going to keep going at it.
