Episode 441: AI Mindset Shifts for Pet Sitters: 5 Beliefs Blocking Your Growth
AI Mindset Shifts for Pet Sitters: 5 Beliefs Blocking Your Growth
AI mindset shifts for pet sitters are no longer optional—they’re essential. If the idea of using AI in your pet business feels intimidating or overwhelming, you’re not alone. But here’s the truth: it’s not the tech that’s holding you back, it’s your mindset.
In this episode, I’m opening up about the invisible blocks I see so many pet sitters carrying when it comes to AI—beliefs that keep them stuck in busy work, burn out, and creative paralysis. I’ve been having more and more conversations with business owners who are watching others use AI to their advantage, but still feel hesitant to jump in. It’s not because they can’t. It’s because they think they can’t.
This episode is your invitation to shift those thoughts. I want to help you stop waiting for perfection, stop fearing that AI will dull your creativity, and stop assuming it’s only for “techy people.” Because once you embrace the right mindset, AI becomes a powerful tool—not a threat.
You don’t have to be perfect to start. You just have to be willing to think differently.
If you’ve been second-guessing yourself or stuck in analysis paralysis, let’s change that together, starting now.
In this Episode, You'll Learn...
Why waiting for AI to be “perfect” is costing you time and opportunity
The false belief that creativity dies with automation
How to use AI without sounding robotic
The difference between information and instruction—and why it matters
What makes AI better with your unique voice and guidance

Welcome to another episode of Bella in your business. My name is Bella Vasta.
You know, I'm gonna go in a lot of different directions today, because there's a mindset thing happening, and it's starting from some of the leaders in our industry.
I'm gonna keep this pretty anonymous. But without saying names. I had 2 people share with me the same exact message that was in a group by someone who is positioning themselves as a leader in our industry.
And it came to me because these people paused after reading this message, thinking, “Wait, Bella, is this true?”
And so I read through it. And it was this message that was like alert: Google has made an update. You need to know what this update is.
And it was talking about AI, and it was basically saying Google is now specifically directing their quality raters to identify pages where main content is created using AI tools and automated generators.
Okay, if you just read that part, you're gonna be like, “Oh, my gosh! I can't use AI on my website.”
And then it goes on, and it says, if your content is mostly AI generated with little original value added, it gets rated as lowest quality, which means it basically disappears.
And then it went on to say, like what this means — AI content that shows little effort will not get ranked in the searches, and that Google’s doubling down on their reward content that demonstrates experience, expertise, authoritativeness, and trustworthiness.
Okay, this thing got like 31 comments when I saw it. 36 likes and stuff. But here's the — and then a lot of the people that start...
