In this episode of The Rocky Garza Show, I sit down with my friend Matt Plumer—a financial and business coach who helps real estate professionals create real freedom, build wealth, and design lives they actually want to live. We didn't just talk strategy—we got honest about what it takes to lead well when you're in the trenches of building something that matters.Matt is a guy who's created a life that many people want: location freedom, profitable business, Friday golf, and a marriage that matters. But getting there—and staying there—has required some deep internal work, commitment, and daily consistency.And that's what this episode is really about: what does it look like to stay the course even when things are messy?About Matt PlumerMatt Plumer is an Expert Financial and Business Coach, Acclaimed Speaker and Author Transforming Real Estate Success. Matt specializes in empowering real estate agents to create scalable wealth, unlocking true time and money freedom. With his strategic expertise, Matt helps agents build more profitable, sustainable businesses that don't just generate income, but build the dream lifestyles they aspire to.By working with Matt, real estate professionals discover how to grow their profits, scale their businesses, and design a life full of opportunities, financial freedom, and lasting success.Owning Who You Are and Leading Without an AgendaMatt shared a powerful perspective: he sees his purpose as serving the people in front of him, without an agenda. It's a simple but deeply grounded philosophy. And the more he leans into that calling, the more life he gets to live—on his terms.We talked about how that doesn't come without friction. Even when life feels good on the surface—profitable business, great clients, weekly golf—there's still that inner voice asking, “Are we really doing what we're supposed to be doing?”High Activity, Low ProgressWe dove into something I see all the time in entrepreneurs: high activity with low progress. When you try to do it all yourself, it feels like you're doing a lot—but you're actually just moving slower. Or worse, running enthusiastically in the wrong direction.Matt talked about how he's learning to get out of his own way by empowering others, delegating, and focusing on the right wall to lean his ladder against—before climbing it.Stabilize the Present to Structure the FutureMatt's current season is about building something sustainable, not just scalable. After five years of laying the groundwork with hundreds of one-on-one coaching calls, he's now able to say, “Here's the singular target”—and build around it.We explored how focusing on one goal, one offer, and one audience allows you to serve better—and live more clearly.The Phone, the Gym, and the Wake-Up CallOne of the most powerful moments came when Matt shared how distractions—and specifically his phone—were stealing his attention from the people who matter most. He literally got a second phone just for workouts, with only two apps on it, to stay focused.Why? Because his wife Melinda called him out. She asked him the tough question: “What's more important—your phone or me?” And that moment was a turning point.This wasn't about tech or productivity hacks. This was about alignment. And it started with a painful realization that even good intentions don't always align with our values—unless we're willing to confront them.Leadership Starts at HomeWe talked about how the lessons we learn in marriage often translate directly to our businesses. If we violate someone else's values—even unintentionally—we create tension. And the same applies to staff, clients, and community. When we know what people value, we can lead with clarity and authenticity.Matt's story is a reminder that the cost of ignoring that alignment is too high—personally and professionally.What You Tolerate Is What You GetMatt's journey reminded me again: your life, your leadership, and your legacy will always be shaped by what you tolerate. If you want something different, you have to raise your standard. That might mean setting boundaries with your calendar, your team, or your own bad habits.And that shift starts with one simple question: “Am I honoring what I say matters most?”Final ThoughtsMatt's a coach, yes. But he's also a husband, a builder, and someone who's chosen consistency over chaos—even when that means slowing down to speed up.This conversation was a powerful reminder: commitment isn't glamorous. Consistency isn't sexy. But both will change your life.If this episode struck a chord, I'd love to invite you to my upcoming workshop: Lead Without Losing Yourself. We'll dig deeper into the clarity, tools, and strategies you need to lead with purpose and alignment.You can also check out Matt's free eBook at mattplumer.com/ebook to learn more about creating Stress Free Wealth.As always, be seen, be known, and lead well.Until next time—when life gets hard, prove it.Resources Mentionedmattplumer.com/ebook – Download Matt's free ebookrockygarza.com/confidence – Join my free monthly leadership workshopKey Timestamps00:00 Introduction to the Rocky Garza Show00:23 Meet Matt Plumer: Financial and Business Coach00:57 Matt's Journey and Current Challenges02:25 Balancing Business and Personal Life04:46 The Importance of Alignment and Values07:26 Operational Shifts and Future Goals11:08 Managing Distractions and Staying Focused15:59 Personal Reflections and Relationship Insights26:21 Final Thoughts and Workshop InvitationTo join Rocky for his next free virtual event, go to https://rockygarza.com/beyondsuccessSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/trgs/donations

In Episode 230 of the Six Weeks to Fitness podcast, host Vincent Ferguson welcomes Glenna Gonzalez — a powerhouse marketing strategist, author, and CEO of J.B. Tyler Marketing & Consulting — for an inspiring conversation on reinvention, resilience, and reclaiming your health after 40. Glenna is no stranger to success. With over two decades of experience in public relations, media strategy, and business development, she has guided countless entrepreneurs to greater visibility through her firm and digital magazine, Entrepreneurs in the Spotlight. But this episode reveals a different side of Glenna — one marked by personal transformation and a renewed commitment to wellness through Ferguson's Six Weeks to Fitness program. How Glenna Lost 15 Pounds and Gained Momentum Initially joining the program out of curiosity, Glenna quickly discovered how different it was from her usual treadmill routines. "From the first class, I was blown away," she says, crediting the energy and support from team members Carmen, Skye, and George. By fully engaging in the twice-weekly workouts, Glenna dropped eight pounds in just two to three weeks, ultimately losing a total of 15 pounds across two cycles of the program. Her results weren't just physical. The Six Weeks to Fitness platform — particularly its educational videos and expert interviews — inspired Glenna to dive deeper. She now co-leads a women's wellness discussion group and actively participates in the school's private online platform, helping others navigate their health journeys. Balancing Business, Family, and Self-Care What makes Glenna's story even more compelling is how she juggles it all. A mother of four in a blended family, she holds two advanced degrees (an MBA and a Master's in Human Services), runs a successful PR firm, and still finds time to prioritize health. Her secret? Structure, purpose, and a mindset rooted in service. "You have to know that regardless of how old you are, there are unlimited opportunities for what you can do," Glenna encourages. Her journey is proof that it's never too late to start over — or level up. Visibility Through Podcasting & AI Glenna also shares why she believes in platforms like Six Weeks to Fitness for business owners looking to scale. "Podcasts like yours offer seven hours, four platforms, and 11 interactions — everything you need to stay in front of your audience," she explains, referencing the popular 7-4-11 rule for digital marketing. She's equally excited about the future, particularly with AI tools that help streamline business tasks. “AI wrote out an entire business roadmap for me,” she shares, showing how automation and human insight can coexist for powerful results.

"Embodiment is sort of a phase beyond words where an experience, or maybe it's not a singular experience, maybe it just eases into you over time, but you feel like it's a part of you." "It's almost like God or the creator gives you complete enlightenment upon birth, then through existing on in a physical domain, you slowly lose it." "I've sacrificed my morals, I've sacrificed time with my children, I've sacrificed my health, I've sacrificed nurturing my relationship with my wife." "It was kind of like the universe knocking on my door. Like, we have this for you. Do you, you know, it's custom made for you. Do you want it?" "I can almost guarantee you, you're going to grow. But I need you to understand the reason you're going to grow is because this shop is profitable." "There's no need for anger or resentment. There really isn't." "Money can buy freedom. Money can buy creativity. Money can buy space to explore these things." "Ultimately, I believe we exude a frequency, a signature. And I think that that signature attracts that same signature closer to you." "I just want to create love and friendship and beauty and art, and I can't seem to escape these type of people in my life." "As soon as you can see the wound, from that day forward, it starts to heal." "The best part about getting tattooed has nothing to do with the tattoo. It's more so like the transformation that kind of goes through having to sit through that process."

How does a bodybuilder go from steroids and stage lights to running sneakers and self-discovery? In episode 764 of the Savage Perspective Podcast, host Robert Sikes sits down with Dan Caron for an unfiltered conversation about ditching the pursuit of extreme aesthetics and chasing a more authentic, balanced version of fitness. This story isn't just about muscles; it's about resilience, mental grit, and redefining what it means to truly be “fit.”Dan Caron shares his raw transition from being a competitive bodybuilder to stepping into the world of running and natural fitness. He opens up about the physical toll of steroids, rapid weight gain, and the struggle of shifting from a ripped physique to focusing on endurance and overall health. If you've ever felt conflicted about your goals or wondered what lies beyond looks, this conversation hits close to home.Starting out as a powerlifter, Dan mastered strength under the guidance of elite trainers before pivoting to bodybuilding. But when the spotlight faded, he was left with a deeper question: what does true fitness look like? Together, Dan and Robert peel back the layers of societal expectations, revealing the emotional challenges of letting go of a “perfect” body and embracing running while staying connected to weightlifting and the gym community he loves.As Dan ventured into running, he faced unexpected hurdles—mentally, physically, and even logistically. Finding the right running shoes for his unique mechanics turned into a symbol of this new chapter. He talks about embracing short casual runs, discovering hidden trails, and even preparing for bigger challenges like a half marathon. These humbling experiences taught him that fitness isn't just about how you look in the mirror but how you feel when you push your limits.But this conversation doesn't stop at running. Dan's story also delves into the entrepreneurial mindset. Drawing from his experience in fitness marketing and product development, Dan identifies gaps in the industry—like tailored supplements for runners—and shares the passion behind creating solutions that reflect his personal journey. Through it all, he balances growing as an athlete, an entrepreneur, and someone who's seeking true health, for both body and mind.This episode of the Savage Perspective Podcast is packed with raw emotion, practical tips, and a deeply inspirational narrative that challenges what we think we know about fitness, success, and perseverance. Dan Caron's story will resonate with anyone striving for balance between ambition and authenticity, whether you're a CEO pushing forward at work, a coach helping others reach their goals, or simply someone trying to navigate the ups and downs of personal growth.Take a front-row seat to this vulnerable, inspiring conversation between Robert Sikes and Dan Caron. Redefine how you see fitness. Redefine how you see yourself. Episode 764 is for those ready to dig deep and truly embrace growth in all its challenging, honest forms.Register For My FREE Masterclass: https://www.ketobodybuilding.com/registrationGet Keto Brick: https://www.ketobrick.com/Chapters:0:00 Intro: From Bodybuilding to Running0:03 Big Challenges After Fitness Shift1:56 From Powerlifting to Bodybuilding6:21 Fitness Is More Than Looks8:33 Steroids to Running: New Goals12:49 Mental Struggles with Body Changes14:44 Training for a Half Marathon18:29 Finding the Perfect Running Shoes20:22 Ultra-Running's Mental Challenge23:50 Financial Struggles to Fitness Career25:31 Creating Top Fitness Products29:10 Filling a Gap for Runners30:58 Building a Runner Community34:45 Amazon: Key to Brand Growth36:44 Scaling Through Amazon Success40:45 Ensuring Product Quality42:40 Real Partnerships in Marketing46:33 Ads That Focus on Benefits48:21 Solving Protein Problems52:16 Starting a Supplement Brand54:14 Dreaming Big: Selling to Nike58:05 Event Success Through Strategy1:00:01 Balancing Business and Passion

What if understanding one simple framework could transform your marriage, improve communication, and make you a better leader in your business?That's what we're diving into today with Enneagram expert Christa Hardin—and for the first time ever, my wife, Sarah, is co-hosting with me.The Enneagram isn't just another personality test, it's a powerful tool that helps you understand how you and the people around you think, communicate, and handle challenges. Sarah and I have used it in our own marriage, and it's been a game-changer—not just at home, but in running a business and leading a team, too.In this episode, we're breaking down how different personality types handle stress, make decisions, and navigate conflict—insights that are just as valuable for your firm as they are for your marriage. Christa also shares what she's learned from working with couples and business owners, so you can avoid the common pitfalls that lead to frustration and disconnect.Whether you're running a business with your spouse, balancing marriage and entrepreneurship, or just want stronger relationships, this conversation is packed with insights you can start using today.3 of the biggest insights from Christa Hardin …#1.) How Your Enneagram Type Impacts Your Business & MarriageUnderstanding your Enneagram type can help you recognize your strengths and blind spots—not just in your relationships, but in your practice. Are you a natural risk-taker (Type 7) who jumps into business decisions too fast? Or a problem-solver (Type 6) who overanalyzes and struggles with decision fatigue? Knowing this can help you make more confident, intentional choices—both at work and at home.#2.) The 5-to-1 Rule for High-Stakes ConversationsWhether you're talking to a client about their financial future or having a tough conversation with your spouse, the way you communicate matters. Christa shares the 5-to-1 ratio—five positive interactions for every one piece of constructive feedback. Applying this in client meetings builds trust. Using it at home strengthens your marriage. Either way, it's a simple but powerful way to improve communication in every area of your life.#3.) Balancing Business & Marriage Takes StrategyMany financial advisors work with their spouse or have a partner who supports their growing business. The problem? Work and home life start blending together, leading to burnout, miscommunication, or resentment. Christa shares strategies for setting clear boundaries, prioritizing quality time, and making sure your marriage doesn't take a backseat to your business goals.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/107FREE GIFT + JOIN THE DBDL INSIDER CREWToday's Gift: Get a free copy of Christa's book, "Enneagram in Marriage: Your Guide to Thriving Together in Your Unique Pairing" [while supplies last]To get access to today's free gift AND become a DBDL Insider with VIP access to future resources and exclusive content, text "107" to 785-800-3235. *Message and data rates may apply.
