The Worst Advice I Ever Got as a New Agent (And How It Almost Ended My Real Estate Career)
Most agents are told to play it safe.
"Keep your ideas to yourself"
"Other agents are competitors."
"Don’t let other agents see what you’re doing."
That’s exactly what someone told me when I was a brand-new Realtor… and if I had listened, I probably wouldn’t even still be in the business today.
In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the toxic advice that almost tanked my career. I’ll show you why keeping other agents at arm’s length is hurting your business, not protecting it. And I’ll walk you through the exact mindset shift that helped me go from burned-out solo agent to building a business and brand I actually enjoy.
Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
•The mindset shift that took me from struggling solo agent to building a business I love
•Why isolating yourself from other agents is killing your growth (and costing you deals)
•How knowing more local agents helped me get more offers accepted (no, seriously)
•Real-life ways to collaborate with other agents for referrals, support, and long-term success
•The simple truth: real estate is lonely enough. You can't afford do it by yourself!

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
