In this inspiring episode of Entrepreneur DNA, Phillip Godkin shares his transformation from a confused newcomer in real estate investing to someone confidently closing deals—all in just four months. After encountering the real estate world by chance in Nashville and moving back to Milwaukee, Phillip struggled with information overload and a lack of coaching until discovering Justin Colby’s REILive.co. With determination, he took consistent action, overcame fear, built key relationships, and followed Justin’s success pillars to earn $15,000 across two deals. His story is a masterclass in taking imperfect action, building certainty, and committing to a vision of financial freedom.
