In a world that feels increasingly chaotic—economically, socially, and emotionally—how do we stay focused long enough to see opportunity when others only see crisis? In this episode, we dive deep into that question with Emerick, Bo, and Julia, unpacking what it means to "find opportunity in a chaotic world."We explore why chaos is often the birthplace of wealth, how to shift from self-preservation to collaboration, and why relationships—not resources—are the true measure of power. We talk about staying in our "gift zone," maintaining discernment in uncertainty, and preparing for opportunities before they appear.At its heart, this conversation is about mindset and movement: seeing the moment for what it is, acting with clarity, and trusting that collective strength creates lasting wealth.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyFollow Bo Menkiti on InstagramFollow Emerick Peace on InstagramFollow Julia Lashay on InstagramBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Success in entrepreneurship isn't luck—it's discipline, mindset, and connection. In this episode, Julia, Emerick, and Bo come together for a deep dive into their essentials for  entrepreneurial success—and actionable tips to help you find and develop them for yourself.We explore how to identify our purpose and passion as the “fuel” that drives lasting success, then translate it into a clear mission and vision that others can follow. We dive into resilience—why setbacks and failure are essential to growth—and the mindset shift required to see lessons where others see loss. Bo shares the power of purpose and contribution, Julia reframes emotional regulation as a business skill, and Emerick reminds us that “relationships take you places money can't.”From building legacy and generational wealth to surrounding ourselves with the right people, this conversation is a roadmap for leading, learning, and lasting in business.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyRead Start With Why by Simon SinekRead Emotional Intelligence 2.0 by Travis Bradberry and Jean GreavesFollow Bo Menkiti on InstagramFollow Emerick Peace on InstagramFollow Julia Lashay on InstagramConnect with Daniel Dixon on LinkedInBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Watch the full episode on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/@mreapodcastWe're sitting down with researcher and industry truth-teller, Mike DelPrete, to cut through the noise on tech, AI, and what clients really want from us. Mike's work has appeared in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times, and The Economist. He teaches, studies the business, and backs every take with data.We dig into the psychology behind home sales and why our industry is harder to “disrupt” than startups think. Mike shares fresh findings from secret-shopper research: Half of online and in-person leads never get a follow-up. We connect that to the three client traits that win listings and loyalty: 1. Be patient, 2. Be knowledgeable, and 3. Be transparent.We also explore AI in two simple buckets. Bucket one includes an operating-expense buster that helps us work faster and cleaner. Bucket two shows a shift in how people search. Then we get tactical by explaining how reviews are trust signals, why a tight niche can help you, and when a cadence of communication that matches each client's expectations builds value.If you're ready to trade opinions for proof, this episode gives you a clear playbook to act on today.Resources:Mike DelPrete's research hub: MikeDP.comListen: Context podcast by Mike DelPreteRead $100M Offers by Alex HormoziOrder the Millionaire Real Estate Agent Playbook | Volume 3Connect with Jason:LinkedinProduced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

When it comes to building wealth, most of us were never taught where to start—or how to make our money work harder than we do. In this episode, we sit down with financial advisor and community leader PJ Hill to learn how to move from surviving to scaling. He breaks down the steps from day one: build your emergency fund, set up retirement contributions, protect your family with simple term life insurance, and automate investments so wealth becomes a habit.We explore PJ's “four buckets” framework—business income, qualified accounts, non-qualified brokerage, and private markets—and how thinking like a family office can help us coordinate taxes, legal, insurance, and investments under one strategy. Along the way, PJ shares how his family uses insurance and governance to turn assets into opportunity. His message is clear: we all deserve wealth—it's time to build it intentionally, together.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyFollow PJ Hill on Instagram: @Mr.PJHillLearn more about NorthRock Partners: northrockpartners.comRead The Millionaire Next Door by Thomas J.

Hearing is SO important, so why do we know so little about the depth of care we can find with a great audiologist?  In this episode Dr Evan Draper,  audiologist, share some great tips on how to prevent your life from becoming quiet.https://www.allabouthearingservice.com/Dr Draper and I discuss these points on this show-Get a hearing test.Our hearing changes gradually over time as we age. We don't usually notice these changes, because they happen slowly, and because they affect only part of the sound spectrum at a time. Even if you don't think you have significant difficulty hearing, you might be surprised by what you're missing. And even if your hearing is great, it's good to establish a baseline for ongoing measurements. (If you want to talk about dementia risk and stuff, that can go here.)Look for an audiologist, because expertise matters in diagnosing and treating hearing loss.There are two kinds of professionals that work with hearing: audiologists, and hearing instrument specialists. Audiologists now require doctoral degrees, while HIS only need a high school diploma. Just like physicians and pharmacists, it used to be that audiologists tested and diagnosed hearing loss, while HIS dispensed hearing aids. Since hearing aids are more complicated than a pill, that clear-cut division broke down, and now most state laws treat the two nearly identically. (Audiologists will refer you to an otolaryngologist, or ear/nose/throat doctor, if you have any medical issues.)Hearing aids can help a lot, but there's more to it than just the devices.There are many hearing aids on the market. Generally, the more you pay, the better the hearing aids will do in background noise or other complicated sound environments. But no matter how much you spend on hearing aids, they won't be perfect out of the box. You'll need a good audiologist to configure and program your hearing aids, so they're right for your hearing and your lifestyle. And wearing hearing aids can be an adjustment process: you may need to gradually work your way up to your full prescription volume over the course of several weeks. (If you want to talk about over-the-counter hearing aids, maybe that can go here.)Speaking of expertise, make sure your audiologist performs some kind of Real Ear Measures.Your audiologist should test how hearing aids are working while they're in your ears, as opposed to just a laboratory environment. Everyone will tell you it's a good idea, but not enough providers actually do it.I've seen plenty of patients wearing hearing aids that don't fit well and sound annoying. These folks might even be convinced that they need new hearing aids. I can usually make adjustments so people's hearing aids are more clear and comfortable than they've ever been.Thank you to Brock Fletcher and the selling team of Keller Williams Realty for their continued support of our programming!'The Tom Matt Show' Heard on-The Michigan Talk NetworkWKAR Michigan State Universities AM 870 & 102.3 FMWJIM-AM 1240 LansingWYPV FM 94.5 Mackinac Citywww.tommattshow.com(podcasts)iTunesFor more information on past guests, Tom's published books, and how to get in touch, please visit our newly updated website at https://www.tommattshow.com#RFZ #radio #broadcasting #podcast #michiganradio #lansing #michiganradio #mab #refirementzone #successstory #humaninterestpodcast #selfhelppodcast

Overnight, her team shrank from seven agents to three, but she refused to slow down. She threw her business into AI, learned from scratch, and rebuilt the machine. The result? More units, more volume, higher ROI, and 75 percent of the business humming on automation.We dig into the exact play. First, we map bottlenecks across lead gen, follow-up, and ops. Then we show how to train a chatbot to act like an ISA, speed up response times, and tag the right agent without screenshots or delays. We cover social funnels that start in the comments and end in the CRM. We even break down review replies that boost SEO and trust.We also talk mindset. You don't need to code. You just need a clear role for AI, clear steps, and the courage to ship. Lauren proves it. She built tools with plain-English prompts, posted value, and let automations work 24/7 while she served clients and family.If you want a lighter workload and a stronger pipeline, this is your episode. We outline the prompts, the flow, and the guardrails so you can run the play today.Resources:Read: The Coming Wave by Mustafa Suleyman and Michael BhaskarExplore: ChatGPTCRM: GoHighLevel (for pipeline, automations, and AI routing)Chatbot Builder: ManyChat (comment-to-DM play)Order the Millionaire Real Estate Agent Playbook | Volume 3Become your clients' go-to Airbnb expertAirbnb has launched a Real Estate Referral Program for agents just like you.

Home sellers, just like buyers, have a specific set of concerns and questions they need answered to feel confident in the process. Their questions often revolve around pricing, timing, and what to expect during the transaction.Here are the top 10 questions home sellers have, based on common inquiries and market trends:What is my home really worth? This is the most fundamental question. Sellers want to know a realistic and accurate valuation of their property in the current market. They often seek a comparative market analysis (CMA) from their agent, which compares their home to similar properties recently sold in the area.How do we determine the best asking price? While related to the home's value, this question is about strategy. Sellers want to know if they should price it high to leave room for negotiation, or price it competitively to attract multiple offers and a bidding war. The answer depends heavily on local market conditions.What repairs or improvements should I make before listing? Sellers want to know what they can do to get the best return on their investment. They are looking for advice on whether to undertake major renovations or just focus on smaller, cosmetic fixes like a fresh coat of paint, decluttering, or enhancing curb appeal.What are the total costs involved in selling my home? Sellers are often surprised by the number of fees they are responsible for. They want a clear breakdown of all expenses, including real estate agent commissions, closing costs, title fees, transfer taxes, and any money they may need to spend on staging, photography, or repairs.How will you market my home to attract buyers? Sellers want to know their agent has a comprehensive marketing plan. This includes questions about professional photography, virtual tours, online listings (on MLS, Zillow, etc.), social media promotion, and open houses.How long will it take to sell my home? This is a question about a seller's timeline. They want to set realistic expectations for the process, from the time it is listed to when the transaction is closed. This timeline is crucial if they are also planning to buy a new home.Is now a good time to sell? Sellers are always trying to time the market. They want to know if it's a seller's market (fewer homes for sale, high demand) or a buyer's market (more homes, lower demand). Their agent should provide a clear picture of the current market climate in their specific neighborhood.What should I disclose to potential buyers? This is a key legal and ethical question. Sellers want to know what property issues or defects they are legally required to disclose to buyers to avoid future legal complications. The rules for disclosure vary by state and local laws.What if a buyer's offer comes with contingencies? Offers with contingencies (e.g., home inspection, appraisal, or financing) are common. Sellers want to understand what these mean, which ones are negotiable, and what the risks are of accepting an offer with certain conditions.How will you handle multiple offers? In a hot market, sellers may receive multiple offers. They want to know how their agent will organize and present these offers, and what strategies they can use to negotiate the best possible price and terms, not just the highest bid.Thank you to Brock Fletcher and the selling team of Keller Williams Realty for their continued support of our programming!'The Tom Matt Show' Heard on-The Michigan Talk NetworkWKAR Michigan State Universities AM 870 & 102.3 FMWJIM-AM 1240 LansingWYPV FM 94.5 Mackinac Citywww.tommattshow.com(podcasts)iTunesFor more information on past guests, Tom's published books, and how to get in touch, please visit our newly updated website at https://www.tommattshow.com#RFZ #radio #broadcasting #podcast #michiganradio #lansing #michiganradio #mab #refirementzone #successstory #humaninterestpodcast #selfhelppodcast

From a hut in a refugee camp to Harvard, bestselling author and social entrepreneur Mawi Asgedom shares how scarcity forged creativity, grit, and a new relationship with wealth. He walks us through his “sunlight” framework—relationships, creativity, experiences, and self-care—as the human energy source behind bold action. Mawi reveals the scrappy campaign that landed him on Oprah (and tripled his advance), the shift from one-to-one speaking to community-wide literacy initiatives, and the strategy that scaled his impact: ed-tech courses with per-student revenue and a professional team. We unpack moving from trading time for money to building sellable income streams and, later, becoming a senior-secured lender. At the core: money is just one slice of true wealth. If you need a push to reframe your model and hit your turbo button—this is it.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyLearn more at mawi.comFollow Mawi on LinkedInRead Of Beetles and Angels by Mawi AsgedomBecome a real estate agent HEREHomeTeam Inspection Service is changing the way agents and clients experience home inspections.

Watch the full episode on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/@mreapodcastRyan Gillen built a $90M real estate business by flipping the script on lead generation, turning community into his greatest asset. Growing up in a real estate family, Ryan learned to hustle early and quickly realized cold calling and chasing FSBOs wasn't a long-term game. Instead, he leaned into what he loved: golf, country clubs, and connecting people.By starting small networking groups and masterminds, Ryan became “the mayor” of his circles, introducing like-minded professionals and solving problems together. That sense of community not only gave members real value, it also fueled millions of dollars worth of annual referrals to his team. In this episode, Ryan breaks down his simple but powerful model: find a problem, gather people who share it, and create consistent spaces to connect.If you've ever dreaded lead gen, this conversation is proof that it doesn't have to be painful. When you build groups around your passions, business flows naturally and relationships become your most profitable investment.Resources:The Millionaire Real Estate Agent (book by Gary Keller, Dave Jenks, and Jay Papasan)MAPS Coaching with Leah LembergKeller Williams Mega CampMREA Notes (weekly models & systems PDF)Millionaire Real Estate Agent Podcast NewsletterOrder the Millionaire Real Estate Agent Playbook | Volume 3Connect with Jason:LinkedinProduced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

Attorney-turned-operator Kendall Bonner joins Julia and Emerick to unpack how modern marketing—and a CEO mindset—can transform a real estate career into a durable business. Kendall shares the story behind her new role at eXp and how “asking” created the opportunity, then walks through the unconventional engine that scaled her team to 200+ sides without cold calling or portal leads. From AI, video, and Google-based intent to her “Data D's” framework for finding motivated movers, Kendall shows agents how to speak to life events, not just listings. We break down brokerage vs. team economics, revenue vs. profit, and why profit is intentional. Kendall also urges agents to buy back their time, add ancillary revenue around a single client journey, and actually invest in the asset we sell. She closes with a challenge: decide what's non-negotiable—then live it.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyBecome a real estate agent HEREThis episode is brought to you by HomeTeam Inspection Service.When you partner with HomeTeam, you're getting more than a home inspection—you're delivering The HomeTeam Experience.

Watch the full episode on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/@mreapodcastWe're back with one of our favorites, James Shaw—our go-to authority for when markets get weird. James runs the Pivot: SHIFT Ahead community of 125,000 agents and has spent the last decade teaching the exact playbook to win when the market turns. Today, we unpack Gary Keller's book, SHIFT: How Top Real Estate Agents Tackle Tough Times with simple steps you can run today to set goals, generate leads, convert appointments, and price to sell.James reminds us that consistency without value is annoying, and value without consistency is anonymous. That truth runs through everything we cover in this episode: from calculating your LID number—lifestyle, investing, and debt—to doubling down on the lead generation strategies that already work, and cultivating your database so you're top of mind when people move from “not ready” to “ready.” James also shares practical pricing conversations you can use today. At the core, James brings clarity when he says growth in any market comes from clear goals, real priorities, and focused action.Resources:Read SHIFT: How Top Real Estate Agents Tackle Tough Times by Gary Keller, Jay Papasan, and Dave JenksJames Shaw's Pivot: SHIFT Ahead Facebook group and daily mastermindListen: Pivot: SHIFT Ahead daily call podcastListen: Episode 18.

Real estate is one of the rare industries where anyone with a license, a laptop, and a car can build a path to wealth—if we treat it like a business from day one. In this episode, we sit down with Jay Papasan, co-author of The ONE Thing and The Millionaire Real Estate Agent, and now author of the Rookie Real Estate Agent book.We explore why the fastest on-ramp for many is joining a team, how to set realistic goals based on net (not gross commission), and why open houses remain one of the most powerful activities for new and seasoned agents alike.At the core of his message: success comes from mastering the basics. Build and work a database, balance prospecting and marketing, and adopt habits that scale. Whether we're new to the industry or revisiting our foundation, Jay reminds us that staying curious, humble, and focused on the essentials is what drives long-term success.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyRead Rookie Real Estate Agent by Jay PapasanBecome a real estate agent HEREHomeTeam Inspection Service is changing the way agents and clients experience home inspections.

That's exactly what Jonathan Mills and his Gainesville, Florida team did. With a simple, repeatable, eight-week model, they swapped their snails for race cars.Jonathan's team already closed over 200 transactions a year, but when the market shifted and Q1 fell flat, Jonathan built a gamified model that paired agents with admin, tracked key activities daily, and rewarded accountability. The result? New agents began stacking a deal each week and referrals poured in from unexpected places—even from hospital giveaways! A culture of action turned fear into momentum.We break down the entire eight-by-eight playbook: the daily steps, the point system, the weekly bunker meeting, and the mindset shift that made this plan work.

What if the real drivers of wealth aren't budgets and spreadsheets, but mindset, habits, and the spaces we live in? In this episode, Julia Lashay sits down with Patrice Washington—author, coach, and founder of Redefining Wealth®—to explore the Six Pillars of Wealth and the psychology that shapes our financial lives.Patrice shares her rise in real estate, the 2007 collapse that forced her to start over, and how surrender and radical honesty reshaped her path. We talk about the biases that keep people stuck, why high achievers often neglect their health and financial planning, and how clearing clutter in our relationships, spaces, and beliefs opens the door to better money outcomes.Patrice explains each pillar—Fit, People, Space, Faith, Work, and Money—showing how they intersect to protect vision and create freedom. She reminds us not to weaponize today's wisdom against our past selves, to choose from faith instead of fear, and to let joy be both the standard and the currency for our decisions.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyLearn more about Patrice's work at patricewashington.comListen to the Redefining Wealth PodcastPillar MasteryBecome a real estate agent HEREThis episode is brought to you by HomeTeam Inspection Service.When you partner with HomeTeam, you're getting more than a home inspection—you're delivering The HomeTeam Experience. With a team approach, fast turnarounds, and package options that include home inspection warranties, HomeTeam helps real estate pros stand out.

Fall may be arriving slowly in San Antonio, but change is in the air. Recorded live at Mega Camp, this episode explores the seasons of business and life—the times to plant, prune, and harvest, and the challenge of closing one chapter while stepping into the next.We dive into the emotional duality of transitions, the “inside game” of self-awareness and growth, and how to hold both pride and grief when roles shift. Along the way, we reflect on lessons that compound over time, the danger of comparing your insides to others' outsides, and the legacy created when representation and resilience intersect.The invitation is simple: embrace the season you're in. See the joy, allow the grief, and carry forward the lessons.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

What if the most powerful tool in real estate wasn't a bulldozer or a checkbook—but a clear, fast answer to “What can I really build on this land?”We sit down with Whitney Blanco, founder and CEO of Acreage AI, to explore how AI turns zoning, policy, comps, infrastructure plans, and even public sentiment into an actionable feasibility playbook. A former civil engineer and global public-health strategist, Whitney calls herself “a humanitarian who does real estate,” and shows how clarity up front prevents costly, infeasible plans down the line.We dig into building a company the scrappy way—selling useful reports, iterating with customers, and proving value before seeking capital—while confronting the funding gap women (and especially Black women) face. Along the way, we rethink due diligence: fewer blind spots, faster timelines, and better decisions without replacing expert judgment. If you've ever wondered what your land can really support—and how to get from maybe to go—this conversation delivers.Resources:Learn more at The Color of MoneyFollow Acreage on LinkedIn and find out more on Acreage.EarthConnect with Whitney on LinkedInBecome a real estate agent HEREConnect with Our HostsEmerick Peace:Instagram: @theemerickpeaceFacebook: facebook.com/emerickpeaceDaniel Dixon:Instagram: @dixonsolditFacebook: facebook.com/realdanieldixonLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dixonsolditYouTube: @dixongroupcompaniesJulia Lashay:Instagram: @iamjulialashayFacebook: facebook.com/growwithjuliaLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/julialashay/YouTube: @JuliaLashayBo MenkitiInstagram: @bomenkitiFacebook: facebook.com/obiora.menkitiLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/bomenkiti/Produced by NOVAThis podcast is for general informational purposes only.

From immigrant roots to transformative real estate projects, Rocio Hermosillo and Kuuku Saah are revitalizing the River Bend neighborhood in Des Moines, Iowa. Rocio—leader of Team Ella and one of NAHREP's top 100 Latino real estate professionals—built her career by prioritizing “work to learn” over “work to earn,” gaining mentorship, and using real estate as a tool for community impact. Kuuku, an immigrant from Ghana with a background in investment management, shifted from building wealth for corporations to creating lasting change in diverse urban neighborhoods.Together, they're restoring the historic North Des Moines Town Hall into affordable housing and a coffee shop, while adding a 24-unit apartment building with a food hall to help local food entrepreneurs thrive.

Watch the full episode on our new YouTube channel: youtube.com/@mreapodcastWe're welcoming Sahil Bloom to the show—a thinker whose work has become a true phenomenon. Sahil's book, The 5 Types of Wealth, hit the New York Times bestseller list for seven weeks and his newsletter, The Curiosity Chronicle, is devoured by nearly a million readers four times a week. In this conversation, Sahil lays out the model that's reshaping how so many leaders approach life, success, and what it really means to be wealthy.Sahil doesn't settle for the usual conversation about wealth. Instead, he breaks it down into five categories: time, social, mental, physical, and financial. He challenges us to get radically clear about what matters most in each domain—moving away from automatic living and into intentional design. We get practical about the exercises and mindset shifts that helped Sahil build his own multidimensional life, like when he moved cross-country for his family and reframed financial goals as a tool (not the endgame). If you're tired of chasing someone else's definition of success or just want to take your business and your life to the next level, this is the model you need.Resources:Read The 5 Types of Wealth by Sahil BloomSubscribe to Sahil Bloom's newsletter, The Curiosity ChronicleWatch Brian Gubernick's TED Talk, Time is FiniteListen: Episode 06.

As lead analyst for HousingWire—nicknamed “the Chart Daddy”—Logan brings data-driven clarity to a topic often clouded by headlines and fear. He reveals why the 2008 crash was an anomaly, not a blueprint, and how America's housing system is fundamentally built for ownership, not perpetual crisis.We dig into why rising mortgage rates haven't stopped millions from buying homes, why millennials and Gen Z are fueling new demand, and how the 30-year fixed mortgage remains one of the best inflation hedges around.
