Guntersville native. Lakefront expert. 600+ transactions.

In this episode, we sit down with Rusty Glines, a top-producing Alabama agent who turned a factory job into a lakefront real estate empire. Rusty shares how a copy of Rich Dad Poor Dad sparked a total career reinvention—and how he built a brand of results rooted in faith, family, and work ethic.

We cover:

• His leap from manufacturing to real estate success
• Why he walked away from brokerage ownership (and how it changed his life)
• The difference between volume and value
• His biggest failure (and the system that could’ve saved him)
• How he defines success after 600+ closings

If you’ve ever thought about going all-in on real estate—or taking a step back to do more of what you love—this is the episode you’ve been waiting for.

What happens when a powerhouse agent accidentally stumbles into real estate… and ends up building a legacy?

In this raw and refreshing episode of the R.E.A.L. Real Estate Agent Life Podcast, Liz Power opens up about what most won’t: the burnout, the emotional battles, the costly mistakes—and how she turned it all into a coaching empire rooted in mentorship, education, and emotional regulation.

If you’ve ever questioned the grind, struggled to find balance, or wondered if you’re truly cut out for this business… this episode is your mirror. Liz dives deep into:

• The surprising way she got into real estate
• How she learned to set boundaries without guilt
• Why emotional intelligence is more valuable than leads
• The real definition of success (hint: it’s not the money)
• How to build your business around positions, not people
• Why mentorship changes everything

This one is for the agents who want more than just another sale—it’s for those chasing meaning, growth, and alignment.

Glenn S. Phillips didn’t set out to lead one of America’s fastest-growing niche brokerages. But when a broken tech company with two fatal flaws and zero capital showed up on his doorstep, he and his wife Doris didn’t just fix it…

They reimagined real estate from the ground up.

In this jaw-dropping episode of the R.E.A.L. Real Estate Agent Life Podcast, Glenn joins Shane and Duane for a no-BS, front-row seat into what it really takes to build something timeless in a world obsessed with shortcuts.

From his small-town roots in Bear Creek, Alabama, to running a tech-enabled brokerage that thrives in 39 states, Glenn walks us through:

• Why “high tech with warm touch” is more powerful than AI
• How to build a pipeline of business that’s immune to disruption
• Why fewer agents with unfair advantages win in the long run
• The Circle of Love philosophy behind their business—and their lives
• And why every business ends in an exit—so plan accordingly

Whether you’re a rookie, a rainmaker, or a rain-soaked broker… this episode will make you stop, think, and rethink everything you know about growth, recruiting, and doing the real estate business differently.

“Make the main thing the main thing.” — Glenn S. Phillips
