Speaker 1 (01:16):
As we're as we're doing my uh season ten of
the show and heading towards five hundred episodes, an can't
believe it. I'm like, I'm only twenty five. I don't
know how this happened. I found somebody online. I was like,
I gotta get her now while she's hot, hot kind
from the Midwest. I love my New West folks. So folks,
(01:39):
my last episode I talked about two episodes ago, I
talked about uh chat EBT and how my friend said
I organized my closet with it. I was like, what, Well,
somebody actually does this person? She has many hats, A marketer,
a consult a strategist, a content creator. That's just just
a few to think. She does her YouTube channel. I'll
(02:02):
tell you, guys, I'll put it in the description Jenner
red Fields optimize your life. But she has stuff on
all kinds of things. But we're gonna focus on the
one thing that grabbed me that was number one on
Google when I looked up chat EVT and organizing. I
feel like my my I feel like my communities. I'm
talking about enough to talk about the back end, but
not the front end of this. So I'm glad to
(02:23):
have her on. She's from me, so top, which I love,
and to set us. My family's from and yeah so
every from to Minnesota. I love my grandmother and all them.
Help me welcome Jenner Redfield having me. It's my pleasure.
Thanks for doing this so people. So just to start
this off, I posted my video at my show two
(02:45):
weeks ago on chat evt and how my friends said
she used it and how she used it, and I
asked my community. I go, because I'm part of several organizations,
I'm like, should we be talking about this?
Speaker 2 (02:55):
And I'll tell you something.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Only one person responded and it was negative, but the
rest kept silent though my episode, my highly higher rated episodes,
because that is a hot thing right now, jen I
mean jadge med, I mean all the AI stuff. It's
all big right now. And I said, look you up.
That's how I found you. You came up first on the
(03:18):
page all your stuff. And I have friends in the
business talking about chatcha met in terms of like it
helps me create blog posts or helps you create like that.
But you're saying, and my friends said too, you can
actually use it and use it correct.
Speaker 3 (03:37):
Yes, So what I did was I have used it
for a lot of different things, and I every day
I try to challenge myself with thinking of a new
thing to use it for. If I'm ever stuck on anything.
My first thought, which I know, if this is good,
it's probably a crutch at this point, but I'm like,
how can I use jadgep to help me?
Speaker 4 (03:53):
And it's so I've done so many different things.
Speaker 3 (03:55):
I was just saying, like, I using it to help
me plan my skincare routine, Like literally all these things
I would spend probably hours googling or searching in the past.
Now I can get answers immediately, which I think is
the biggest benefit is the speediness. So one of the
things that I did was I moved into this townhouse
a couple of years ago, and I just kind of
(04:15):
put things in places and then just let it go.
And then I was thinking about it and I was like, wait,
how can I use chat sheapt to help me make
my house look better? Just like so I just took
a picture. It actually started with my fridge magnets. I
think I talked about that in the video. I had
this really really chaotic phrase with a bunch of magnets,
and like there was some Christmas cards and there was
(04:36):
just some stuff, and I just went, you know what,
I'm gonna take a photo of this and ask chateapt,
how can I make this look better? What's cool about
chatcheapete now is you can add images and you can
also produce images. I recently upgraded a couple months ago
to the paid version, so it's twenty dollars a month,
which basically means you don't hit those limits all the
time like you do in the free plan. But I
(04:57):
took a picture of it, and then it told me
like where to move the to make it look more cohesive.
And I did that, and I showed it before and after,
and then I was like, oh my gosh, wait, why
don't I do this for the rest of my house?
So I started going to different zones. I did literally
this bookcase behind me, I did this bookshelf. I actually
sorted all of my books based off the doing decimal system,
which I'd always wanted to do, and so that was
(05:18):
very helpful because I was like, I don't know the due.
Speaker 4 (05:20):
Decimal system, but like chatchi patitas.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
So no, all my books are organized in a way
that I can like find them, and they're like similar
to each other's almost like a library. I mean, I'd
literally done like so many and then I'll ask chat
Gypt like what you know, what should I organize this with?
Like what what container?
Speaker 2 (05:36):
What?
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Uh?
Speaker 2 (05:36):
You know?
Speaker 3 (05:37):
What storage things should I buy to organize myself? So
again I don't want to put like organizers out of
a job, but it's like, also, you know, helpful for
me as someone who's like I didn't have to spend
any money to just reorganize the things I already owned.
I moved things around to different rooms and it was
just very very helpful for it to kind of keep
track of the items I owned and just be like
this would look better and more aligned.
Speaker 1 (05:58):
I look at it as I'm looking at that, yeah,
because that's I think the person who's negative said that
kind of But my thing is I look at it
this way. There are there's plenty of works to go
up from just play my organizers. Trust me, there are
people who need you physically in it.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
Oh for sure.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
Yeah, this is like basic ORGANI this is just more reorganizing.
But like if I had a ton of stuff like that,
would definitely need someone to come in and help.
Speaker 4 (06:20):
And it's like that's not something a lot of people
want to do themselves.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
For sure.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Yes, and that's why I say that. I'm god, you said,
can I say? I think it's for the person who
who is motivated themselves, who doesn't need someone for a
smaller task. I think this could help in certain ways.
And but see, you're you're so smart and I and
I love it. I saw like you're like, okay, folks,
I'm gonna share with you how I did this and
what I do follow along. So I think that's where
(06:46):
I was impressed by you. I was like, Okay, she's
actually because I'm curious too, and I'm gonna ask a
couple of questions.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
Folks.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
Don't give everything away, because I want you to go
to her and look, but I do much. But I
know I'm glad, but I want to get back to
think of Yes, we're not just saying I think nowadays
even I'm warming up to it a little morem A
lot of the AI stuff, there's some stuff that's really good.
Speaker 2 (07:07):
In a pitch, it's good.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
And so like you said, you're like, I'm sitting in
my house and I have an hour, mister, this shelf
is bothering me. Yes, it's called organizer for that, but
you don't have to call call it organized helping me
for now. Like I So, in a way, is chatchpt
replacing Google? That's right, I one.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
Hundred percent believe that. And actually they've done some research lately.
It's like in the last couple of weeks where they're
like certain websites have actually lost traffic because people are
going to.
Speaker 4 (07:37):
Chat gpt over Google.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
And also Google's kicking themselves in the butt because they
have the AI answers at the top for Gemini. And
so it's like, now people aren't actually like seo and
of itself is extremely affed up right now, and I
feel like, well, what's interesting though about chat chapt is uh.
I actually had someone comment on one of my YouTube
videos that they actually searched chat cheapt and they suggested
(08:00):
my video as a result. So it's like, so people
are looking for videos and then Google does crawl YouTube
or sorry, chatchip crawls YouTube, and so my video was
one of the search results. She clicked on it and
watched the video and said, Chatchept sent me. So it
is like a replacement search engine at times for instead
of it'll actually tell you what it thinks is the
(08:23):
best results versus just choose your own adventure on Google,
which is like here's our top but it's like you,
but it's actually telling you, like these are the ones
that I recommend. Another thing I do want to talk about,
which I haven't really seen a lot of content on
is deep research, which is an option within chat Scheept.
You get i think ten a month on the paid plan,
but basically usually Chatchypt gives you kind of basic answers.
(08:46):
You can actually ask it to do much deeper research
on what's currently happening now. So that's really helpful for me, Like,
as I'm creating content, I'm like, I really want you to,
you know, audit my own YouTube channel, figure out what videos.
Speaker 4 (08:57):
Did well and then also what is right now.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
So that actually helped me kind of create an upcoming
content calendar, not just based off of hey, create a
content calendar for me, it's actually looking deeper into the
analytics of what's charting right now. And I was like,
that's I think a lot of business owners can utilize
this in a way that they can get ahead of trends.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
That you just gave me an idea, all right, girls,
I'm like, folks, learn too, just gave me an idea.
I'm like, well, no, because here's here's something folks. I
love emits at homes. So I was fighting it, you know,
I'm I'm also part and I'm also in the media world,
So I was I was marching. I'm part of several reasons.
I was marching U when we were on strikeout here
in California.
Speaker 2 (09:38):
A couple years ago, and the whole stuff.
Speaker 1 (09:40):
And so but I'm learning that there's several AI programs
like Sono, which is for music and it's a little
that are actually really helpful and just in terms of
just I need an opening sequence for a podcast, I
need seventeen seconds of music. I know, go to somebody.
I don't need that. I don't need I don't need
all that the seventy seconds of music. Instead of going
(10:03):
to YouTube and trying to find uncopyrighted non copyrighted. It's
like it's just like it's and it's and it's still
original stuff. It's still something that's new. I'm learning myself
jet how to give into the robots and submit to
give in and use it in a way that's I'm
still like, I'm still busy as an organized I'm still working,
(10:24):
trust me, every comedia, but I'm also streamlining so of
my work.
Speaker 3 (10:28):
Yeah, I think that's the biggest thing for me is
it's it's to help me get on stuck machine is
really what I have.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
Found it to be the most helpful.
Speaker 3 (10:34):
Is I get stuck a lot because as a business owner,
as a marketing person, I'm constantly like, how do I
combat this problem? It could be personally, you know, It's
like I just go and ask it. And I actually
like the talk to speech or the speech to text
feature where you can just talk to it because otherwise
it takes me forever to type it out. So I
think a lot of people don't know that there's even
a desktop app version, so you can actually download it
(10:56):
to your desktop. So that's the one I use the
most is the one on my on my computer, but
I also use it on my phone on the go.
I'll be out of restaurant and people will ask a
question and I'll just go to Chatchy instead of googling,
I will just go to chatchypt and ask. And I
think that is a huge shift in our culture, and
I'm seeing more and more people doing it, So it
is really becoming the go to result machine for a
lot of people. And I really think that that's just
(11:19):
it's just a you have to kind of understand it now,
otherwise you're going to.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
Be left behind.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
Jenna, I'm giving in no, no, my thing, you know,
I'll tell you exactly word helping me recently, I needed
I create podcasts and stuff and I need the name.
Speaker 4 (11:34):
Oh yeah, that's what I got it my podcast name
from it too.
Speaker 1 (11:37):
Yeah, and it comes in handage. I type in what's
about that in a second? Howcause how do you use it?
What's about that part in the second? But I typed
in when I needed it, came up with ten names
we all voted on. We're like, that's the one.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
You know. It's like you know, but.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
Also folds to tell you too, you don't even come
up with names. It may not even be the names.
It may be pieces of you might go, I like
the beginning of that, of that you still still brain
power still there.
Speaker 3 (12:02):
So what I do and when I was I did
the exact same thing, but I spent about three hours
on chet Chipetique trying because I would What I would
do is I would just say I kind of like that,
and then I would ask it more questions. It would
get more answers, and it literally, I'm not kidding to me,
about three hours of straight just being like, okay, tweak
that there's too many letters or that's too many words.
And then so my podcast is called The Optization Toolbox
(12:24):
and it took me a really, really really long time,
but now I've had it for almost two years and
it's one of my favorite names and I don't plan
on changing it soon because I really spent the time
choosing the name that I felt like fit what I
was trying to do.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Yeah you're still working, like you're still working.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
Yeah for sure.
Speaker 3 (12:41):
And it's also it's also using my brain to be like,
I like that I don't like I never just accept
the first answer is what I think you have to
learn is like you might like it, but if it's not,
like if you're not like, oh my God, I'm sold.
You have to keep pushing it to be like okay,
I kind of like that. So I think talking to
it and pushing back is a skill that you have
to also practice. Is like, just because it gives you
one answer, you really have to be better at the
(13:03):
They call it prompting, like like AI prompting. That's kind
of a new skill. It's something I've gotten a lot
better at. Is the more you give as a prompt,
the better the results will be. So if you just
write it out a sentence, it's probably not going to
do as well. Is if you write it super super
super detailed and then also giving it feedback and saying
it's not quite right, keep trying or giving me more
(13:24):
answers or keep like like literally it'll it'll just keep
searching for new things.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Because the thing is, I know when it first started,
it was it was a little wooden.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
I think the programs are starting to sound like people.
And I think today with this prompting them just about
in a second, it's it's asking what's more of you?
Speaker 2 (13:41):
It's it's taking in what you want.
Speaker 1 (13:43):
How yours are? So start writing a little more in
your style. There's ways you can do that too. Tell
people what prompting is because if you like I heard this,
probably we don't do the right prompts. I'm like, okay, so, Jenny,
you're prompting is.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
So basically it's like asking a question that's really detailed.
So instead of just saying come up with a list
of content ideas for me and my channel, say these
are the goals that I have. This is the type
of views I want.
Speaker 4 (14:11):
This is so.
Speaker 3 (14:11):
Really write out exactly what you need and say, you know,
I'm trying to focus on this, this, and this with
the goal of being this, this, and this create maybe
a full content structure and maybe. I'm a big fan
of frameworks. That's actually one of my most important things
I use chatchpt for is helping me come with acronyms
and frameworks that help me. So if you literally watch
(14:33):
some of my videos, I have videos where I use
a framework and I just love the fact that it's like, oh,
it's an easy, catchy acronym for something that I probably
wouldn't have never come up with myself. So for me,
I use it a lot for acronyms and fun frameworks
to help people remember you know, whatever it is like
and I have a list I've made about over forty
(14:53):
different acronyms from chatgept over the last couple of months,
and I now have them all on Canva and I
like so I and like reference them and stuff. So
I've done a few videos on it. I want to
do more on frameworks because that's honestly one of my
favorite things in life is coming up with some sort
of catchy name for things and and then just running
my life through frameworks like that.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Yeah, so folks, what that means for are you folks?
Delay person out there? It's what's just it's basically what
it says. It's like you write out exactly what you want. Yeah,
that's basically it is basically basically basically you're writing, you're saying,
if it's solid and that's not too many words or anything,
yeah you want if it's a long sentence, it's a
(15:34):
long set, but you're trying to get the closest to
what you want, right, yes.
Speaker 2 (15:39):
Yes.
Speaker 3 (15:39):
Another thing I like to do is I'll write out
what I want to say and then say rewrite this
so that way it's like kind of restructures it so
it's like it's what I.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
Said, but in a way that sounds a little better.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
So that way, I still have all the information that
I wanted to say, but I'm like just tweak it.
It's kind of like my that's like or just because
it still has all the information, it just kind of
separates it better and just makes it sound better. And
it sounds like me.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
You know.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Yeah, so when you when you were doing your organization
for yourself and as you're doing your skin carou teine too, yeah,
so you look it up, you prompted it, and you're like,
I need this shelf organized in a way.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
Blah blah. How did it feel?
Speaker 1 (16:17):
I mean literally, I mean how did I mean when
you when you were doing and go wow you when
you got the answer and you're like, okay, you start
doing it.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
How did I loved it?
Speaker 3 (16:25):
Because it was like I I probably would have never
come up with it myself. And it's it's also it's
smarter than me in a sense, right, it knows the
right ways to make things look. It's it's it's it's
a very intelligent machine. And so for me, I I
always have like a picture in my head, but it
never like turns out. So it's almost like it's using
(16:48):
what all the things I've already purchased, so I've already
done the work of gathering the items that I can't
use GPT for you know, but I if I like
something at a store, I'll buy it.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
And then I'm like, but I.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
Don't know how to make it work together and the
cohesiveness and the design, and it tells me what I
should move or what I should remove or what to add.
Like for example, I took a photo of my mantle
and I said, what should I add to this?
Speaker 4 (17:11):
And they're like, you need more greenery.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
So then I went and found like a plant from
the other side of the house and put that there,
and they're like, it's better. And it's funny because it
will it will still keep trying to improve, and so
at some point you just have to be like, Okay,
this is as good as it kind of yeah, right,
but at the.
Speaker 4 (17:25):
Same time, it's way better.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
And if you look through my posts I did, it's
on my substack, you'll see the before and after pictures,
and it's it's clear, like how much better it is
because it's just it's more yeah, cohesive, and and just
like especially like the mantle one, it's like at one point,
it was like all on the right side and.
Speaker 4 (17:41):
It was just really uneven.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
It was like, oh, there's like better levels of things,
and it just it made more sense cohesively in the
look of my my fireplace. And I haven't changed it
since I did that video, so it's it's been the
same the last couple of months.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Well, I think you have a good point too, folks
that yeah, it'll keep going and going and someone you
got to stop. Yeah, it's gonna keep going, keep trying
to keep them. Yeah again you said, that's a little sign.
I know those side of though I know chat GPT
and a few other services have at in the prints
something sometimes double check certain things becomes a certain stuff.
Speaker 3 (18:15):
Also, I just saw a post this morning on LinkedIn
that's like chatcheapt is going to be so positive that
you're gonna feel so good that sometimes you're wrong, and
it sometimes chat cheapt just tries to butter you up
a little bit. So you have to know that, like
it's really really trying to make you seem like like
this amazing person. So don't always believe that because it's
(18:35):
always going to try to tell you that you're the best. So,
like I think people are getting a little bit egos
with that, but it's like you have to just take
everything with a grain of salt when it comes to AI.
Speaker 4 (18:45):
And I think for.
Speaker 3 (18:45):
Me, it's more of a direction rather than an end result.
And I think it's really helping me figure out again
when I get stuck what's blocking me?
Speaker 4 (18:54):
Like, what's the block? I think is really helping it.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
I use it honestly as a therapist a little bit,
like it tells me when i'm when I share my issues,
it like Lily breaks down what I'm trying to say,
and then that makes me be like, oh okay, and
it gives me new information that maybe I didn't recognize
in my own patterns.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
So it's funny you say that.
Speaker 1 (19:13):
The first my first ever chat GBT experience was from
one of my fans. Actually they had set me to
go CHaGS. I was like, what's this chat GT?
Speaker 2 (19:23):
What's going on?
Speaker 1 (19:25):
And this this is like last year sometime or yeah,
two years ago and check every more and he sent
me they asked about me, right about James Lodd Jr.
And when he sent it to me in the email,
I was like, that person sounds.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Great, bad that could be me.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
You're right, It was kind of like it was so
it was like I was the greatest person on earth. Yeah,
wrote it. And I was like, well some of that's true,
of course, but but it was but it was like
it was like a hyper version of James Loudjunior. And
I started laughing. I didn't great, I just do you
say that? That was my first year? So I go,
who wrote? They goes, that's what they wrote, that's what
(20:04):
chance we wrote about you? And I said, tell me
about James Lott Junior. Now, of course, now if I
went and said, tell you about James lot Junior is
organizing work, I'm sure it's blowed different now, but it
was glowing. I mean I was like, oh, yeah, I
want to know who that is. I want to be yes.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
But you can also tell it to be honest with you.
It can tell you to like like tell So I
actually did an exercise. I saw it on TikTok where
someone's like, you know, based off of all the things
you know about me, write about my biggest strengths and
maybe things I don't notice.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
And I was like, that's cool. But then I did
the opposite.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
I said, Okay, well tell me about my biggest blind
spots and weaknesses based off of all the things that
you do. So that was really interesting for me to
be like, Okay, it's actually telling me things I need
to work on, and it's not being as positive. So really,
if you tell chatchipt how to talk to you, it
could be sassy, it could be you know, snarky. Like
there's lots of ways that you can literally tell Chatchypt
like what what how you want to talk it to
(20:58):
talk to you that can impact the results.
Speaker 2 (21:01):
For sure.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
I feel like it's I mean, it's not going away, folks, No,
I mean, I just think that people are wishing those
go away or not or fail.
Speaker 4 (21:10):
Something like the start of the Internet.
Speaker 3 (21:11):
When the Internet first came around, a lot of people
were like, oh, this is gonna be a bad I
don't see that with AI. See, I thought I think that,
like crypto might have been a fad, But I think
AI is not a fad.
Speaker 1 (21:22):
You know, it's too tied into everything. I think it's Yeah, cryptos,
I try to create a whole in the currency that's
a little different, I think.
Speaker 4 (21:31):
But I think it's too much scammers with that too.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Yeah, I think you're right, it's just more on the
lines of the Internet. I mean seriously, yeah, or anything
like you know, you know when you started when he's
like got cell phones, you know, Yeah, it's all the same, mate.
My first cell phone was a big block that had
to open.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
It up and out. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (21:48):
My parents said that.
Speaker 1 (21:48):
Yeah. Yeah, it was a little crazy and I could
work on it. I couldn't use that at a certain time.
Speaker 2 (21:52):
It cost money. It was crazy and the internet with
a little DVD or CD wrong, I remember that.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
Yes, it's not okay, So a little about you because
I you know, I'm fascinated by because you do, because
I want to know she does videos on everything and
her bangs, doing her bangs.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
Yes, if you're watching a.
Speaker 2 (22:11):
B I love it.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
Skincare all kind of aviation which does all kind of stuff.
Speaker 2 (22:16):
Yeah, I love that.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
Your channel is basically it's all about that about optimizing
your life.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
To me, it is how do you fall into that.
Speaker 3 (22:27):
I've just always been really interested in improving things, and
I've always wanted to be a YouTuber since I was
fifteen years old. I started making videos at fifteen. It
was on a different channel. I was just playing around.
I wasn't on camera. I was just like posting, like edits.
And then when I was in high school, I had
to make a decision what am I going to go
to school for? Like what is my degree going to
(22:47):
be in? And I was like, I really like making videos.
And my mom's like, well, maybe you should go to
school for that, and I was like okay. So I
went to school for media production and then I did
an internship in LA and actually worked in Burbank. So
I was called the lots in just Film Study Center
and it was it was very eye opening to me
to see what the film industry is like. But then
(23:09):
I realized, I'm like, I don't know if I want
to live in LA. So then I come back to
Minnesota and I'm like, now what do I do with
this video? That people don't make movies here?
Speaker 2 (23:16):
You know?
Speaker 3 (23:16):
So I was like, what do I do living in
Minnesota with it? So I started off in wedding videos.
So I started making wedding videos, yeah, like about ten
years ago. And then I started doing more social media content.
And then at that time, I started my channel in
twenty fourteen, but I was just doing it kind of
on the like, you know, every once in a while
I posted a video just to kind of for fun
and then it was and then I had a podcast
(23:38):
as well, which I still have to this day. I
started that about twenty seventeen, but it wasn't until the
pandemic hit twenty twenty one ish that I was like,
I really want to like go back to YouTube and
really focus on that. So I actually that was around
the time I discovered Notion, which is one of the
main tools I use on my channel, and so I thought,
you know what, I'm just going to make my channel
like a Notion channel, and so I started posting a
(23:59):
ton of Notion content over the last couple of years.
That's what grew my channel as well as ADHD content.
So I kind of did both of those at the
same time. And then what I did is I kind
of combined them. So I started a Facebook group called
Notion for ADHD, and so a lot of people that
have ADHD.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
Like to use Notion.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
There's about five thousand members in that group, uh, and
so I grew that. I became the first Minnesota Notion Ambassador,
and then I started kind of expanding my content beyond
just those two topics.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
I kind of got bored both of those.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
I was like, Okay, I've done a lot of notion videos.
I've done a lot of ADHG videos, Like I don't
really even I'm a marketer, so you know, I need
to do other things too, So I kind of started
doing some health mental health, started doing stuff on I
recently diagnosed autistic I just I've been on a weight
luss journey skin character, you know. So it's like I've
just kind of expanded beyond those two topics and now
(24:49):
I'm kind of at this point where I'm like, now
I have a tony of different topics that I cover.
So now I'm just like, okay, chat cheapt I've done
a couple of AI videos.
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Those have done well.
Speaker 3 (24:56):
I'm just kind of experimenting now to see, like what
videos people like. Google Photos has been actually a really
popular one on my channel is how to organize Google Photos?
So as you guys do home organization, I love digital organization,
so how to organize your computer, how you organize your emails,
how to organize your photos? Like that has become a
passion of mine that I like to teach because there's
not a lot of people teaching it, and yet we
(25:16):
all have uh computers and phones that get extremely you know, disorganized,
and for me, I think that's the thing that I
have been trying to figure out for myself, like what
is the main like thing. But what I found is
it's optimization, and all those include optimizations. That's why my
podcast name works is how to appetize your health, how
(25:38):
to optimize your business, how to optimize your your digital organization,
how to optimize your mental health. And so then I'll
just come up with the topic on all those things.
So that's kind of a quick story of me. And
then my day job, I guess, is my business. So
I help small businesses in my town create video content.
So that's kind of what I mostly do, uh to
bike money.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
I guess impressed. Seriously.
Speaker 1 (25:59):
I saw your channel folks are channeled tomorrow, and I
think and I think we're similar. W we offer a
lot of content different They always say, you know, just
do one thing and that's it and for some people,
for some people that's fine. I'm multi passionate, same here,
same Yeah, I know that we are. The whole point
is that we are. We're multi passionate, multi hyphens. There's
(26:20):
a lot of people who are like us, who have
multi interest making. That's when it come to our channels
because because there's some different things going on for them
too that you're You're like, you're the same You're doing
the same thing the same way.
Speaker 2 (26:33):
Yep, exactly, it's fine.
Speaker 3 (26:35):
I think that that's okay, and I think I I
that's why I call my business name my name. So
my name is General Redfield and people are like, what's
your business name? I'm like, it's my name because I'm
going to change my business every like two years and
it's gonna be something completely different. So as long as
it's under my name, people know it's me, and they
know whatever I'm working on now is what I'm working
on now, So I don't I that's that was the
(26:57):
struggle with coming up with the name for my podcast
is I want it to be something that it's not
super specific. It's the obsermization toolbox can mean so many
things because I do so many things, and if it
was just I think at one point it was like, yeah,
it was like digital organization or something, and I'm like,
but that's so specific, and I'm like, what if I
change my mind and I do an.
Speaker 4 (27:15):
Interview with someone here, whatever.
Speaker 3 (27:18):
I feel like I needed a name that was more
general and so that's why I chose that name, and
I haven't regretted that name at all.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
Name here. I changed my name after a year.
Speaker 1 (27:26):
I had my show to the SOS show because I thought,
I said, we're here to help.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (27:30):
I love that.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
That's great and it's so and I love how general
that is, because that could be in.
Speaker 1 (27:34):
Any way, you know, anyway. Right, So you're kids of spirits.
I think we have a lobby of a lot in common.
I mean, the thing is, I mean, the world is,
as we started to say, wrap this up, the world
is multi. It's not just one thing. And so I
think you and I are tapping into that. And I
just appreciate that you're like saying, Okay, folks, here's my adventures.
(27:55):
Here's what I'm finding. I'm gonna share like me, I'm
gonna share it with you what you will with it.
But I think I want to say out loud to
my industry, the organizing industry. I get on it, I
think on some level, because you know, we were using
forward thinking, we did the whole virtual organizing for a while.
During the pandemic, we had to pivot on that too.
This is another form I just look another form of.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
Organization, and I think people can use it in so
many ways, and especially business owners. I'm seeing so many
business owners benefit because it's like it's it's resources at
your fingertips. And I really think one thing I've recently
switched to is a sub stack, which I highly recommend
for every content creator to use because it's email marketing,
you know, blog posts, and you can embitter your YouTube videos,
(28:39):
you can create a podcast. But that has been really
helpful for me to come up with ideas for that
that also like integrate altogether. So I've just been a
huge fan of just some of the newer technologies that
have come out in the last couple of years that
have I wish I'd come out ten years ago because
it would have saved me a lot of time and energy.
So I feel like chat GPT is something that you know,
I wouldn't be scared of it, but also don't give
(28:59):
it all your personal information is what I've learned, Like,
don't give it too much stuff because it will save it.
Speaker 2 (29:05):
You know.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
It's it's something that like it is, we don't know.
It's great for more general things that maybe aren't as personal,
so I would be if you're doing anything really really personal.
Do the temporary chat, which won't save it. So just
to know, like if you're nervous about like, oh, I
don't want to give it all my information, do the
temporary chat and then but it does save a lot
(29:27):
of information about you, which is helpful for you. But
then just know that they may be taking that in
as well. So just just be careful, just like the
Internet safety, you know, just just don't do anything that
you were gonna be like, here's my social Security number
and all this if.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
I don't know, I don't know, but I'm just saying.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Like right right, yeah, yeah, yeah, or or address or
something on your yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
But she said she's you're.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Saying something that's and I would say she, but you
are saying something like that, it's And also, like I said,
it's low print that says we have to fact check
a couple of things you may have to you. So
if you're not sure about to check it out, I mean,
don't be afraid check it out.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
I mean yeah, and go to Like I've been using
it for a lot of health stuff, so interpreting test results.
I'll upload image and be like, can you explain this
to me? But then if you need more help, go
to a doctor, you know. So it's like, don't just
rely on chat rept for like this is this is
one hundred percent true. It's a good place to start.
It's a starting point for maybe seeing patterns and things
(30:23):
that you didn't know and then doing further research on
your own, because I do think that the one thing
I am worried about with chat chipet is that the
younger generations are not going to know how to find
things themselves. I obviously didn't have chat gupta in high school,
at college and most of my adult life, so I
did learn how to do that. But these younger kids
are going to be like, just look it up on
chat chepete, and then if something happens to chat chipet.
Speaker 4 (30:45):
It's like they don't know how to find the information
they need.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
So just just making sure that you are also still
keeping your skills sharp with other things is going to
be helpful in the long run as well.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
It's very smart thing to say too, because I as
older than you are. I remember actually looking at encyclopedias
and stuff library and I'm like that anymore, let me
do that anymore?
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Oh? Yes, So I think that's that's a race for Jenna.
You're the Baham.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
You are just like I am very impressed with you.
I think that you are on the on your You're
you're the now, you are the now, the present, and
I want people to follow you. So I will put
everything in the description. Why woult you tell people to
your chance on? Where can they follow you?
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (31:23):
So my main two probably follow is my YouTube channel,
so it's my name General Redfield if you just search
my name on YouTube, and then my substack, which actually
gets sent out every week General Redfield dot substack dot com.
That basically I said, every time I publish a YouTube video,
I also send it as an email so that you
get notified. Otherwise, sometimes on YouTube, the algorithm doesn't always.
Speaker 4 (31:41):
Show all my videos.
Speaker 3 (31:42):
So this way it's like you actually get an email
that tells you, hey, I have a new video out.
If you want to check it out here, it's embedded
in the email. You can click and really click play
and watch. I found that to be helpful for people
if they're like HD and don't remember to, you know,
go back to my channel. It's like, oh, you get
an email and you just have to open the email
and check it out and there's more information in that
email than just beyond the YouTube video. So I add
(32:03):
pictures and so there's actually a post if you want
to look at the posts that he's referencing. There's a
whole substack article about it where I show pictures, I
add links. So that's also available on my substack.
Speaker 2 (32:13):
Yeah, she does.
Speaker 1 (32:14):
She shares with me what to do, so folks, I say,
go do it, go check it out. Of course, you
follow me at a lot of heelp dot com sub
organizers on every single streaming service platform, of course. And
Sirs James lit Junior, and I want to thank us
for I would think Jennifer being on the show. I
think all of you for watching and listening. I'm audio listeners.
I love them, and I'll see you next Monday.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
Bye bye
