#Podcast #RealPersonRealNeeds Since we last gathered on the podcast, I performed in my very first cabaret on Valentine’s Day as part of Season 6 of the New Voices Cabaret. As far as I’m concerned the night was a rousing success. Aside from a flubbed lyric here and there, the crowd genuinely seemed to enjoy my …
On this episode, I share how self-employment and chasing your dreams can be an emotional roller-coaster. It certainly isn’t for everyone and frankly some days I wonder if it’s even for me! But in the midst of all of the chaos and uncertainty, God is faithful to teach me important lessons and let the clouds …
I’ve had several auditions over the last few weeks. Some went well, others were just okay. But what is important to me is that I keep lining them up, preparing, and doing my best, come what may. I decided to document my recent experiences. So here’s your opportunity to know what it’s like to be …
This past week I spent more time in the mall than I care to admit. No, I wasn’t doing Christmas shopping. Actually, I was turning the tables and making the mall work for me. You see, when you work in Real Estate, there are certain times in the year where things tend to slow down. Typically the end of summer right before the school year, and as the holidays approach. So being self-employed, you try to find creative ways to make some extra money around the holidays. What brought me to the mall was the prestigious opportunity of performing… market research.
As you know, I have always made a concerted effort to be authentic. So, to be honest, recently I have felt unsure with the identity of this podcast. Though I think the podcast content has been valuable to many people, I feel a bit guilty that it has, at times, been haphazard in its delivery. …
#podcast #documentary #RealPersonRealNeeds In this experimental episode, I bring you along with me to experience what it’s like to be a Realtor by day and a rock-star by night. By including music beds and actual audio from the night in question, I hope to create an immersive experience for the listener to understand this one aspect …
This is probably one of the most controversial things I’ve ever done. No doubt the things I say in this episode are polarizing. I will make enemies but I will also be applauded by the few who dare to speak up and speak out. The state of our political system has driven this country to the brink and I will not stand for it any longer. Will you stand with me for integrity, authenticity, and generosity in the midst of a corrupt, deceitful and greedy generation? If you’ve been an avid listener of this podcast, be forewarned…. $#!+@ just got REAL.
#money #RealPersonRealNeeds #podcast Many aspiring entrepreneurs motivate themselves by envisioning the extravagant life that awaits them if they succeed. Driving expensive cars, living in luxurious estates, and having grapes peeled for them. It’s the American Dream! But have we gotten it all wrong? Perhaps there is more to life than making tons of money so that we can …
#RealPersonRealNeeds #podcast Before you started pursuing your dreams, you were probably preoccupied with thoughts of what it would be like. If you’re like me, you would waste your time daydreaming about it and come home from work miserable and unable to be there mentally and emotionally for your family. Once you start pursuing your passion, it …

I love sleep. LOVE IT! But I am realizing more and more that I need to apply myself and get up early if I want to accomplish my goals each day. More importantly than getting up early, is using the time you have in the morning to get yourself ready mentally, spiritually, and physically for the day ahead.
“Taking complete ownership of your outcomes by holding no one but yourself responsible for them is the most powerful thing you can do to drive your success.” – Gary Keller When things don’t go our way we are faced with two options, either take ownership of the outcome, learn from the experience and move on, or sit and …

We can’t create business out of thin air, but we can put ourselves in a position to succeed by committing to doing the hard work, even when we don’t see immediate results. Like a farmer plants seed and has to wait for harvest time, patience and consistency are the key. When we finally begin to see results, no matter how small, it is important that we take a moment to celebrate and use that success to drive us forward.

It is my mission to be authentic and transparent in all of my business activities, and sometimes that means shining a light on some of the deceptive practices that are prevalent within the real estate industry. Admittedly, this approach is not always met with enthusiasm. I don’t often enter a room to the sound of deafening applause, streamers and confetti whirling through the atmosphere, and choruses of “For He’s A Jolly Good Fellow…” In fact, as you’ll soon discover, it has sometimes come at the cost of losing out on possible income because I have been unwilling to lie about the value of a home for my own gain. Nonetheless, it is my duty to you and everyone I come in contact with to practice what I preach…to be authentic and generous in a superficial and self-centered world.
“You have not lived today until you have done something for someone who can never repay you.” ― John Bunyan When pursuing your passion, you’d be surprised how self-centered you can become. We would never admit that but sadly, it’s true. It is one thing to talk a good game about being authentic and …
