Guys, it is almost halfway through 2025.

And if you think about it,

we're in some weird times.

And to make matters even better,

I can add to that chaos because we've created something

that is really exciting for a lot of people to kind of change their lives.

And it's mobile businesses.

Let's dive into it.

So I used to tell people that I converted school buses into tiny homes,

and that's what I do.

But now it's also shifted a little bit.

Now we actually convert shuttle buses and vans into mobile businesses for a lot of different types of people.

That's what I want to share with you today,

because we've developed something that we've actually done before.

So this would be probably our sixth rendition of it.

And it's great only being 22 feet long because you can just park that thing on the side of the street.

I mean, think about it.

There's shuttle buses.

You see them all day long everywhere.

And the cool part about shuttle buses that we really like is they're not very big,

but the interior height of it is like 6'3".

So that means like Brett Blizzard himself can sign up on this thing.

So like every bus we get,

they start off as a Plain Jane school bus,

or in this case, a shuttle bus.

It was white, it was dented,

it was beaten, and we've done a lot to it.

We painted the exterior, we painted the bumper,

we did new wheels, got new tires,

added some lights on the interior and exterior.

And I'm honestly really excited to share with you guys

because we've opened up a lot of opportunity for a lot of people.

We've brought their businesses to your driveways, to your business.

We've gotten people out of the brick and mortar mindset.

We've gotten people out of all this overhead.

You can put all your business in this thing and you can use it wherever you possibly want to go.

And with the exterior of this thing,

we wanted to keep it pretty stealth,

not too flashy, not too over the top.

So we put a custom rack on the back to hold the mini split compressor.

We've got a 30 amp shore power, a little water fill.

We did some new LED lights,

and then we were able to tuck away the dump valve for the gray tank for the sink that's inside.

So yeah, let's make our way inside.

So the aesthetics for this bus are a vibe.

I mean, they came out real well.

My wife did a really good job for the interior of this thing.

It's a massage bus, so it's gotta have a nice mood to it.

So with the interior of this thing,

it turned out really well.

We did a cedar tongue and groove ceiling.

We kind of spaced it up with this plank in the middle.

And then my wife did like this marble,

kind of looks like cement,

and it turned out real well.

I'm actually surprised.

People on our Instagram are commenting,

asking if we put some it inside the bus.

No, we did not.

It is paint and it's worked out great.

Then she also found these green velvet interior curtains.

They're all of course on a track so you could bring the outside light in or you can,

you know what, have privacy because that's what you want in a massage.

You can block out the outside life being here in your own space.

One of my favorite parts of my job is like that unexpected experience.

When people walk into the spaces that we create,

they have no idea what they're about to walk into because of the outside.

You think about what a school bus,

shuttle bus conversion could be or should be.

And then we, I think,

a good job of repainting that picture if you look mobile business

or mobile chiropractor or mobile massage

or anything mobile these days they are nothing up to this scale they're basically a gutted shuttle bus

or gutted bus with a table inside and

while that's totally fine the vision that we have for our clients

and what they're trying to sell to their clients is entirely

different we've created a whole new atmosphere inside this 22 foot long school bus

that she can take to that person's home or that person's work

and totally have a welcoming spot for them to really want to hang out at

and hang out in because i know myself like

if someone said hey i'm going to give you a massage in the back of a bus

that doesn't sound good but the reality of it is

if you can wow them with

that experience of hey this is my presentation of what this bus actually is

and this is before i even do my craft on you i think

that sells a lot for you and the client so

when we

when we build these for the clients we build them for

the clients clients we build them for you guys to help generate money

and generate revenue off the bus that we created

because you've got this bus

and this conversion to help make you money help make your life easier

so we really try to execute on the style

and i think we did a really good job with that

so here let's get into it one of the things we did kind of do on this bus

that we've never made before is instead of building out the wheel well

and covering the box we actually stripped it down to the bare metal we insulated the underneath

so it still has insulation but then we also clear-coated the top part

so it has this like industrial metal look to it

100

and i think it pairs really good with this nice dark lvp flooring

101

that we did

102

so i started using chat gpt as like renderings to be

103

like hey what could this space be like could you turn

104

this into a mobile tattoo parlor could you turn this into

105

a mobile salon could you turn it into a mobile classroom basically anything

106

that there is in a brick and mortar you can turn into a mobile

107

and when you do it mobile you have the opportunity to make

108

that client's life easier oh yeah this client This client has an electric massage table.

109

I didn't know they made electric massage tables,

110

but they do, and she has one.

111

So we needed to put an outlet in the floor for her.

112

So that's what we did.

113

Has anybody else put a recessed floor inside of a school

114

bus for a mobile massage studio going to Ohio for a

115

lady to drive around to get massages in the back of their bus?

116

Probably not, but we're in the beginning of it.

117

So let us know if we can help.

118

And one thing we did in this bus that is really massage studio worthy,

119

we got a dimmer on these little lights so it can really help set the mood for getting a massage.

120

Like bring down the lights,

121

bring the incense, get the sounds going.

122

You won't even ever think that you're in a bus.

123

Yeah, these dimmers, man.

124

That's the vibe for sure.

125

We've got an 8-inch drawer.

126

We've got an 8-inch drawer.

127

And we've got a huge 10-inch drawer.

128

You can put a lot of stuff in a 10-inch drawer.

129

I didn't realize how big that was.

130

But yeah, that's 24 inches.

131

That's 30 inches.

132

36 inches.

133

So this is 60 inches altogether.

134

This is 18 inches.

135

And then, of course, we've got three big shelves.

136

One, two, three, technically four, I guess.

137

And that's all open.

138

We tuck the mini-split stuff nice and smooth behind there so you don't ever think about it.

139

I'm so proud of this thing.

140

So doing buses and being off-grid doesn't have to be complicated.

141

It sounds complicated, but it doesn't have to be complicated.

142

So with this system, it's pretty straightforward.

143

We've got an inverter.

144

We've got a link distributor,

145

which is like a bus bar.

146

We've got two big batteries.

147

We have an on-off switch.

148

We've got a Bluetooth dongle thing

149

that tells you all the things you need to know about your system as far as battery capacity,

150

how much water you're using,

151

how much is left in your batteries,

152

and all that good stuff.

153

So that's all the electrical.

154

That runs the mini-split, that runs the lights,

155

that runs the outlet, that runs everything you possibly need to use off-grid in this bus.

156

So for the further water system,

157

we've got two and a half gallons of electric hot water,

158

so you can adjust this to the temperature that you want.

159

We've got 15 gallons of fresh water.

160

We've got a water pump,

161

an accumulator, got on-off valves,

162

and yeah, very straightforward, very simple.

163

When I build these buses,

164

I build them with the intention of my wife to do this.

165

It's funny, like my wife is involved in me building these buses,

166

but she doesn't know all the technical stuff.

167

If she were to ever call me,

168

can I explain this process very simply for her.

169

So I think about that whenever I'm doing these.

170

So then when the client calls me,

171

I'm like, yes, pull this thing.

172

Yes.

173

Turn this thing.

174

Yes.

175

Push this button.

176

And we can find out the problems very simply,

177

very fast, because if something happens,

178

you want to find out the solution as soon as possible.

179

So yeah, let's keep it simple.

180

In lieu of the coffee bar prep section,

181

we've got switch for the wall scotch,

182

Atlas right here, floating shelf.

183

We've got a 9,000 BTU mini split to keep this thing nice and cool throughout the summer,

184

nice and warm throughout the winter.

185

Like I said earlier, we've got two and a half inches of closed cell spray foam on this entire bus.

186

She's in Ohio, we went heavy on this closed cell spray foam because we wanna make sure that the clients are comfortable.

187

Is it a little more expensive to the client?

188

Yes, but if it makes her clients' clients more comfortable,

189

it's all worth it.

190

So let's build for efficiency,

191

that's built for functionality, and that's what we do.

192

So this is something we've never done before,

193

which is like these recessed shelves inside the walls.

194

Normally we can do them in the walls that we build as like divider walls,

195

but to actually build it inside with the closed cell spray foam,

196

they add in the interior.

197

It was kind of tricky,

198

but we're able to figure it out.

199

So she's got nice, three nice big shelves right here.

200

We've got an outlet right here,

201

so she can add her speaker,

202

add her diffuser, add her sense,

203

all those things that you might need electricity to.

204

You could do that on this shelf,

205

then you've got extra space for knickknacks designs and all that stuff.

206

Additionally, like any good office, you have a consult.

207

You're going to talk to the client about what they're needing,

208

what they need adjusting, what they need help with,

209

or whether it's a therapist's office,

210

it's a chiropractor's office, a massage studio,

211

it's whatever you want it to be.

212

You need a spot for your clients to sit.

213

So we did that here.

214

We built it in a nice functional chair for the client.

215

And then of course, if you're going to do it,

216

might as well make it storage.

217

So all of this is interior storage underneath.

218

So yeah, I'm just really excited to see what opportunities come up for people to take their business mobile

219

and being the guy that can help people do that.

220

Because I like creating freedom for people.

221

I like creating opportunity for people.

222

I like creating life to be easier for people

223

and taking your business to the client or parking it at the marina because that's where you want your office to be.

224

That's what we can do.

225

Like it doesn't just have to be mobile massage students.

226

It doesn't have to be mobile services,

227

but we've created mobile offices for people

228

that they can then pop up their office from day one where they need to be.

229

So yeah, I'm excited for it.

230

I'm excited to know what you guys think about it.

231

Like it if you like it,

232

dislike it if you don't.

233

If you could subscribe, I'd really, really appreciate it.

234

And yeah, we'll see what the next one is.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
