There’s a moment in every real estate career — and honestly, in every life — where you realize that reacting your way through the day is the fastest path to burnout. In this episode, I share the mindset shift that changed everything for me, inspired by a single line from Ram Dass's Be Here Now:

 

“You’re standing on a bridge watching yourself go by.”

 

It sounds poetic… until you actually try it. Then it becomes a blueprint for emo...

This episode with Paul Benedict — longtime realtor, yogi, teacher, and author — is exactly that. We talk about how meditation, breath, and yoga philosophy actually show up in real life: in business, in conflict, in burnout, and in those “I have no idea what to do next” moments.

There’s a moment every one of us faces in business and in life—the choice between holding back because of fear, or stepping forward even when our stomach is in knots. In this episode of The Mindful Agent, I open up about how I’ve learned to stop waiting until I felt “ready” and instead build confidence by doing the very thing I thought I couldn’t.

Too many agents spend their energy worrying about interest rates, the economy, or the market—but none of that sells a home or serves a client. In this episode of The Mindful Agent, I share why I’ve stopped letting fear and uncertainty run the show, and how I’ve found joy in the grind instead.

Real growth isn’t found in the big closings or the applause. It’s in the phone calls, the follow-ups, the open house signs—it’s in the daily ...

In this episode, I share one of the biggest mindset shifts I’ve ever had in real estate—and in life—what I call the “Deathbed Calendar.”

 

Inspired by Robin Sharma’s The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari, the “deathbed mentality” is about living each day with clarity and purpose. For me, it meant turning my calendar into more than a productivity tool—it became a mirror of my values.

 

I talk about how I went from letting real estate’s cha...
