Join Sarah and William for a shorter but no less candid discussion of self-doubt, anxiety, imposter syndrome, mindset, and the importance of community. You'll also get multiple glimpses into how very different William and Sarah are from each other!
In this joyful conversation, Sarah and William sit down with their friend and fellow realtor Mac shortly after he completed the Chicago Marathon in October 2025. The three of them discuss everything from physical and mental training to the community around the race to why in the world someone would choose to run even one marathon, let alone multiple of them! They dig deep into why Mac runs and lessons he's learned from running...

AND they introduce the 2026 Planner & Goal Tracker produced by the team, an improved iteration of the 2025 ve...
Sarah and William process the feelings so many of us have but don't discuss, of disconnection and lack of community. They talk about the fallout of Covid-19 and how we need a sense of belonging in all different areas of our lives. How do we create (or re-create) community? What does community mean? How do we invite others into our worlds? And, most important: will we be brave enough not to suffer in silence but to raise our ha...
William and Sarah talk about not just setting and achieving annual goals, but thinking much much bigger: THOUSAND-YEAR GOALS. What does that even mean? Tune in and find out!

Come join them in making the world a better place.

After a bit of a hiatus, they're back! William and Sarah recorded this episode following a team meeting where Will walked everyone through an exercise to help them identify their personal core values. In this podcast, the two of them discuss their own core values.

Sarah and William have a conversation about how they make decisions. They talk about course corrections and paying attention to the things that let you know whether you're on the right path, as well as managing decisions in a relationship, while also touching on things like mentors, forgiveness, and accepting other people's experiences. Do you listen to your body and your intuition, or do you listen to other people's...
In this helpful episode, Sarah and William talk about having uncomfortable conversations early, when only a 1% correction is needed, rather than avoiding them until you're waaaay off target and the issues are huge. They model conversations, doing a little role play, and touch on the trust pyramid, resentment, forgiveness, and more. Lots of good stuff here for making relationships work better, whether professional or personal.
Sarah picked a just-for-fun topic this time, and she and William discuss all things MINNESOTA! What's great about the state? What's unique? What do they love about it? Where else could they imagine living if they couldn't live in MN?
This one's also a mobile edition, so there's background road noise... but hey, it's MINNESOTA road noise, so it's all part of the experience!
In this (mobile!) episode, William and Sarah give some answers to a question they are frequently asked: What is it like to work with your spouse? They talk about everything from being together nearly 24/7 to having fun date nights (if you can get Will out of the house!) to handling frustrations and conflicts. Oh, and of course seed art at the state fair!
What is time? How do we relate to it? Will and Sarah have a lively discussion about the different ways they perceive time and how it can affect their relationship.
William and Sarah are back and talking about self-sabotage. What is it? Why do we do it? How does it show up in our lives? The discussion includes tips for how to recognize it and questions to ask, as well as addressing neighboring topics of trust, worthiness, confidence, imposter syndrome, judgment, and triggers. Whew! Buckle in and join us for quite a ride!
Sarah and William discuss what's in their "mindset medicine cabinet"--the things they've learned to prioritize in order to stay in their "zone of genius." Their list includes things like movement, sleep, nutrition, routines, and knowing their stress triggers. (There's more than that--you'll have to listen to get them all!) You'll even get a live demonstration of 'box breathing'...
