The Surprising Truth About Vision Boards: Why Most Fail & How to Make Yours Work (Backed by Science)
In this video, I begin a discussion of the common ways prospecting reluctance shows up in the real estate industry. Many agents struggle with the emotional challenges of initiating or following up with potential clients, which can lead to a lack of business and early career burnout. This video delves into the SPQ Gold Assessment, behavioral decoys, and the top 5 types of prospecting reluctance: Role Rejection, The Yielder, Friendshield, Famshield, and Telephobia. By recognizing and addressing these issues, you can regain control of your business, increase your prospecting activities, and achieve the success you deserve in real estate.

If you're struggling with prospecting reluctance and want help, schedule a FREE discovery call to learn more about how the SPQ Gold Assessment can identify your specific challenges and develop a plan to overcome them.

April 1, 2003, marked a huge turning point in my life as I left a secure corporate job to become a real estate entrepreneur. Yes, it was April Fool's Day—an ironic choice for starting a new chapter. As I transitioned from the comfort of a VP role in healthcare to the challenges of real estate, I learned that success didn’t come overnight. The flexibility I craved often became a lack of structure, and the “unlimited income” I sought was unpredictable.

In this video, I’ll share my entrepreneurial journey and how Simon Sinek's "Golden Circle" framework helped me find clarity. I'll break down why knowing your "Why" is key to resilience, focus, and long-term motivation—especially in an industry where 87% of new real estate agents quit within five years.

Plus, I'll outline practical steps to discover your own "Why" and how to align it with your daily work to create purpose-driven success.

I wish I knew how to have more courage and live the life I really wanted.

For over a decade, I heard this statement daily, or ones just like it. With a graduate degree in clinical social work and a post-graduate certificate in family therapy, I worked in the non-profit sector, counseling cancer patients and their families. Some embraced their illness with courage, optimism and grace, while others struggled. Later, I focused my work on counseling people with terminal illness and their families—a role that isn’t for everyone, yet one I found immensely rewarding.

As my career evolved, I transitioned to the operations side of healthcare. While I loved the business aspect, especially within a mission-driven organization, the bureaucracy was exhausting. With the unwavering support of my amazing wife, I took a leap of faith and left healthcare over 20 years ago to start my own real estate business.
