Alan Stewart Jr., went from walking the streets handing out free gym passes in hopes of attracting new clients to 2017 Realtor of The Year! But it wasn't as easy as it sounds. His road to success was filled with hurdles, mental blocks and barriers at every turn. Alan describes how self reflection taught him to understand what's happening and why its happening in real time. Once he was able to connect the dots of human emotion and the corresponding actions, Alan super charged his career and personal growth.  Once he left the world of fitness and moved to real estate it only took him 5 years to build a team of his own and consistently rank in the top 1% in the state.   Follow Alan here: IG: @alanstewartjr FB: alan stewart jr. - not your parents real estate agent      

On this episode we sit down with the Co-Founders of Well Watches, Adam Lopez and Leonard Stauffer. Instead of throwing a birthday party for himself, Adam decided he would rather organize a charity event that would build a clean water well for an under developed county. He successfully raised 3K from that event and the idea for Well Watches was born! After a late night phone call with Leonard, Well Watches was off and running. This is their story on how an idea turned business was first discussed on that phone call, all the way to putting products in customers hands.
