Are you feeling burnt out as a real estate agent? You're not alone. Most agents never get taught how to build a sustainable business—and end up working harder, earning less, and questioning if it's even worth it.In this video, I break down why real estate burnout happens, the hidden signs most agents miss, and a step-by-step 90-day plan to fix it for good. Whether you're a new agent or a top producer feeling stuck, you'll walk away with clarity, strategy, and a real path forward.

On today's episode, I talk to musician Daniel Littleton. Originally from Annapolis, MD, Daniel's first band The Hated was part of the first wave of hardcore/post-punk/emo in the 1980s. In 1991, Daniel and Elizabeth Mitchell began recording together as Ida. They released their first three albums on the formative indie label Simple Machines, and as the '90s progressed they became loosely associated with a wave of chamber pop bands. Their next five albums were released on labels  like Polyvinyl and Tiger Style Records, and in the late aughts, the band went on hiatus. Recently though, they began performing again in support of Numero Group's 4-LP reissue of their fourth album Will You find Me.

In this Legacy Lens finale, Craig Smith and Colin McFarland wrap up the series with a reflective, behind-the-scenes conversation about what legacy really means—and how it flows through us, not just to us. From baptism testimonies to behind-the-curtain planning, they unpack the moments that made this series so impactful. Plus, hear Craig's personal reflections on the lessons he's taking with him—and how slow, steady faithfulness beats hustle culture every time. It's a conversation full of honesty, wisdom, and next steps for anyone who wants to live with legacy in mind.

Back in 2024, the headlines screamed it: “Buyers agents are done!” “You'll never get paid again!” And sure, the lawsuits made some noise—but the real market shift? It was the interest rates.As rates climbed and affordability got tighter, buyers and sellers alike started facing new challenges—negotiation tactics, seller credits, rate buydowns, deal structuring… and suddenly, they needed skilled agents again.In this episode, I break down:✅Why the commission lawsuits weren't the real threat.✅How a single change—rates—flipped the market dynamic.✅Why the agents who didn't panic are closing more now than ever.This is for every agent who stuck it out—and every one who's ready to double down on value and professionalism.

What if building your legacy started with just one conversation—and just one agent?In this episode, I share the story of a talented agent I had the privilege of mentoring over the last six years. She was a powerhouse—respected, consistent, and truly gifted at closing deals. But after her unexpected passing, one question haunted me: What if she had just sponsored one agent?This isn't a pitch. This is a wake-up call.Whether you're at eXp Realty or another brokerage, this video explores how the revenue share model—done right—can offer something far greater than income: a lasting legacy.

Summer for That's Rad, a podcast presented by the Littleton Co-op, can only mean one thing – it's time for a trip! Host Anastasia is embarking on a cross-country road trip… with a twist. Listen in as Anastasia goes coast to coast to get the scoop on food co-ops across the country. What's it like to be a co-op with over 100,000 member-owners? How does a co-op survive when there are eight other food co-ops in the same town? Do co-ops even exist in the South? And what, if anything, does the Littleton Food Co-op have in common with any of them? The road trip kicks off in America's co-op hotspot: Minneapolis, MN. Anastasia stops and chats with Wedge Community Co-ops to talk about why people get involved in co-ops, the power co-ops have to support historically marginalized communities, and what they're putting in the Minnesota drinking water to make it so dang cooperative. Plus, hear the inside scoop on how the power of cooperation raised awareness and a headline making donation for a Twin Cities organization in need. Best listened to with a kombucha in hand on a long drive. . . . The Littleton Food Co-op is Littleton, NH's only member-owned grocery store, featuring local produce, hot prepared foods, a full-service deli, bulk foods, craft beer and wine, and a quality grocery selection. The Co-op exists to serve its members and broader community through a range of standard and unique foods, offered at a fair price, with outstanding service.

A local activist group, Rooted in Littleton, recently conducted a survey of more than 1,000 Littleton voters about housing density — and found that 49% of those polled think the city is in a housing shortage. But that same survey found that more than half of respondents oppose increasing housing density. Kyle Schlachter, the mayor of Littleton, took the survey himself, and has a lot of thoughts about preserving the charm of Littleton while making sure people have access to housing. He joins host Bree Davies to talk about the city's current approach to “gentle density”, what could happen if Rooted in Littleton's current petition to change land use makes it to the ballot in November, and what the effect of “protecting single family residential zoning” could have on the future of this suburb.For even more news from around the city, subscribe to our morning newsletter Hey Denver at denver.citycast.fm.Follow us on Instagram: @citycastdenverChat with other listeners on reddit: r/CityCastDenverSupport City Cast Denver by becoming a member: membership.citycast.fmWhat do you think?

Joey Klein, transformation expert and founder of Inner Matrix Systems, takes us on a journey that redefines wealth as wellbeing—a state of inner peace regardless of external circumstances.After surviving a near-death experience at 19 that jolted him from a self-destructive lifestyle, Joey embarked on a quest for authentic fulfillment. This path led him through Eastern wisdom traditions, intensive meditation training, and deep study of the nervous system's role in our emotional experience. The insights gained along this journey formed the foundation of Inner Matrix Systems, which has now trained nearly 90,000 people worldwide.Joey reveals the fundamental flaw in most approaches to personal development: they focus on thinking our way into new emotional states when our biology actually works in reverse. Our emotions dictate our thoughts and behaviors, not the other way around. By learning to work with our nervous system first, then emotions, then thoughts, we can create lasting transformation instead of temporary changes.This understanding revolutionizes how we approach relationships too. Joey's forthcoming book "Relationship Alchemy" outlines three critical components of thriving relationships: managing your own emotional state, nurturing the unique energy created between two people, and appropriately supporting (rather than trying to fix) the other person. When we make others responsible for how we feel or take responsibility for their emotions, relationships inevitably deteriorate.The conversation delves into the neuroscience supporting these concepts, explaining how chronic stress physically changes brain structure, while just weeks of proper training can rewire these patterns through neuroplasticity. Most importantly, Joey shares practical applications that listeners can implement immediately to experience greater peace, fulfillment, and authentic connection.Joey Klein, CEO & Founder of Inner Matrix SystemsAddress: 7631 Shaffer Pkwy STE A, Littleton, CO 80127Phone: (720) 446-5533ConnectYoutubeLinkedInInstagramFacebookReceive a complimentary Blindspot Training session with a Certified IM Trainer to discover what's holding you back and what to do about it.

In this episode of the podcast, leadership strategist Alan is joined by Brandon Young—Army Ranger veteran, leadership expert, and co-founder of Applied Leadership Partners. Together, they explore how leaders can develop the mindset and skill set to thrive, not just survive, through seasons of high pressure, deep uncertainty, and prolonged adversity. Brandon brings over 25 years of frontline leadership experience, from elite military operations to scaling nonprofits and navigating complex corporate restructures. This isn't a theoretical conversation—it's a grounded, real-world exploration of how mission-focused leaders can build perseverance, resist burnout, and lead with clarity in unpredictable environments. Topics Covered: Brandon's formative years in the Army and how special operations shaped his leadership foundation The difference between endurance and perseverance—and why the latter is essential for modern leaders Why leaders are facing “justification fatigue” and how to build speed to trust using the C.A.R.E. model (Candor, Authenticity, Reliability, Empathy) How to counter the loneliness of leadership through shared emotional load and intentional relational rhythms Strategic pauses vs. false finish lines: how tactical rest can save your mission The five pillars of perseverance: Change, Uncertainty, Acceptance, Choice, and Growth Why clarity—not certainty—is the real antidote to fear-based decision-making How to lead others through ambiguity using frameworks drawn from combat-tested leadership models Practical tips for shrinking your world to reclaim agency and make wise decisions under pressure Key Takeaways: Leadership doesn't have to be lonely—but it does have to be intentional.

Or, should we say *THE* big scoop, as Gifford's CEO Lindsay Skilling sits down for an interview. Skilling is a fifth-generation ice cream maker in the Gifford family, overseeing day-to-day operations and growth of the company, along with her siblings and cousin. She and Anastasia talk about what it was like “growing up Gifford,” what makes the Maine-based company and product so special, and why it has won the hearts of the Boston Red Sox, New England Patriots, Portland Sea Dogs, and New Englanders alike. They also take a look back at Gifford's devastating 2023 factory fire, and discuss the state of recovery today. Listeners will be left with a message about the importance of family, doing work you care about, and to never take a scoop of ice cream for granted. Warning: cravings for Gifford's Famous Ice Cream will occur, proceed with caution. The Littleton Food Co-op is a proud retailer and supporter of Gifford's Famous Ice Cream and hundreds of other New England food brands.

Send us a textNathan Littleton, Public speaker and host of the "FIRM My Life" Podcast, in his words:"I was raised in a hardworking family that encouraged me to dream big and put in the effort to achieve my goals. At just 19, I took a bold step and opened my own body shop in my small rural town. However, I quickly learned that success requires more than ambition and a strong work ethic. After a series of financial missteps, I was forced to close the business, leaving me feeling lost and searching for direction.""Determined to rebuild my life on a solid foundation, I began a personal journey to find true stability—mentally, spiritually, and financially. As I learned and applied the principles that transformed my own life, I realized that countless other young men were struggling with the same challenges. This inspired me to dedicate my life to teaching what I had learned.

Fear can lock us in, but Jesus has a way of walking right through locked doors—literally and spiritually. In this week's episode, Craig and Colin unpack John 20 and the message behind Jesus' words: “Peace be with you.” From funny behind-the-scenes sermon stories to real parenting struggles, they explore what it looks like to move from fear to faith. They talk about why we often "lock the doors" of our lives—emotionally, relationally, spiritually—and how Jesus calls us to something more. Whether you're facing fears about relationships, parenting, or simply taking a step of faith, this episode offers relatable insight and practical tools to follow the Spirit's leading. Plus, hear a powerful story from Coletta about facing fear in a delivery room and how God's peace shows up in unexpected ways.
