• 86. Turn Single-Family Homes Into Multi-Million Dollar Developments With Hudson Santana
    2025/06/09

    Today, we’re pulling back the curtain with Hudson Santana, a powerhouse developer and agent whose team closes $150 million a year in the heart of Boston. Hudson’s journey is anything but typical. Growing up in the Amazon in Brazil, he made his way to Boston, started out bartending, and—thanks to a push from his wife—jumped into real estate. What sets Hudson apart isn’t just his volume, but also his knack for seeing potential where others see only what’s in front of them.


    In this episode, Hudson shares how he built his business by becoming a master of spotting hidden value in properties, diving deep into zoning, and leveraging local knowledge to unlock profit others overlook. We get tactical about how you can start thinking like a developer—no deep pockets required—and how becoming the local expert on what’s possible (not just what exists) changes the game for your business and your wealth.


    Hudson breaks down the systems, mindset, and everyday actions that led him from “just getting by” to building generational wealth, and how any agent can follow the same blueprint. If you’ve ever wondered how to take your real estate business from transactional to transformational, this is the conversation you don’t want to miss.

  • 85. Become the Mayor of Your Market With Susan Lombardo
    2025/06/02

    We’re sitting down with Susan Lombardo, the “mayor” of her Atlanta neighborhood and a master of geographic farming. Starting with postcards, consistency, and an obsession with service, Susan built a $40 million solo business and then turned it into a $65 million team. Susan shares how she transitioned from a 20-year insurance career to earning Rookie of the Year in real estate by quickly building a hyper-local brand and trusted vendor network, becoming the go-to resource for homeowners in her community.


    We break down her farming playbook: sending big, bold, neighborhood-specific mailers every month (without fail), always leading with value, and following up for years to come. Susan explains why patience and persistence—not quick wins—turn farming into a repeatable, “W-2 style” income, and why she’s passionate about mentoring the next wave of agents to build businesses rooted in systems, service, and heart. If you’re ready to play the long game, Susan’s story is the blueprint.

    2025/05/26

    Josh Anderson is proof that simple systems done consistently will build massive results.


    In this episode, Josh breaks down the three lead gen models powering his $100M Nashville team: golden letters, agent-to-agent referrals, and a LinkedIn strategy you’re probably not using (but should be).


    He shares how his handwritten-style golden letters generate a 3% callback rate, how his agent newsletter brings in $1M GCI annually, and why LinkedIn is the untapped source for reaching high-earning professionals in your market.


    Josh doesn’t overcomplicate things. He builds clear systems, works them every day, and shows up with consistency—what he calls “today’s currency in business.”


    This one’s all signal, no noise. Let’s dive in.

  • 83. The SCALE System Behind a $150M Business With Michael Hern
    2025/05/19

    Michael Hern built a real estate empire one dog walk, one ferry terminal coffee, and one hyper-local story at a time.


    Today, he runs a team on New Jersey’s Gold Coast doing $135–$150 million in annual volume. And after all that? He still drives an hour to his farm to work cattle.


    This episode isn’t just about hustle; it’s about how to build a business that works without burning out.


    Michael breaks down the two-tiered SCALE model he uses to train his team and run his life. First comes the foundation:

    Seen, Communicate, Add to the database, Leave a lasting impression, and Education.


    Once that’s in place, he walks us through how to evolve it:

    Systems & Simplify, Challenge & Curiosity, Amplify & Automate, Leverage & Leadership, Execute & Expand.


    These aren’t just tactics—they’re values. Michael also shares how unplugging for 12 days off-grid, journaling in solitude, and reconnecting with what matters has helped him grow as a business owner, a husband, and father.


    This episode will give you a playbook for visibility, trust, and leadership. And maybe (just maybe!) inspire you to schedule some thinking time of your own.

  • 82. How to Turn New Agents Into Top Producers With Erin Jones & Josh Dukes
    2025/05/12

    We’ve got a power duo in the house.


    Erin Jones and Josh Dukes went from being productivity coaches at their local Keller Williams brokerage to running a $275M real estate team in the D.C. metro area. They’ve done it with a lot of heart, no fluff or shortcuts!


    Together, they’ve built one of the most disciplined and high-retention teams we’ve ever seen. Their playbook? A culture-first approach, zero tolerance for entitlement, and dialed-in systems–new agents walk in with a 30-60-90 plan and start producing fast.


    In this episode, Erin and Josh break down their entire operating model, from hiring criteria (they don’t follow up with you on purpose) to the open house strategy that nets them 50% of their deals. You’ll learn how they coach new agents to make 200+ monthly contacts, convert strangers into clients, and—most importantly—why they’ve been able to retain their agents year after year while still scaling at speed.


    We also unpack how they structured their business partnership with full transparency, separate P&Ls, and a crystal-clear rule for when to “die on a hill.” If you’re thinking about partnering with someone or expanding your team, this is the blueprint.

  • 81. Five Pillars of Resilience for Real Estate Agents (& French Fries) With Dr. Robyne
    2025/05/05

    What do Olympic athletes, real estate agents, and university professors have in common? They all eventually hit a breaking point and the best come back stronger. Dr. Robyne Hanley-Dafoe is one of the world’s leading experts on how resilience makes this happen.


    A celebrated scholar, international speaker, and author of Calm Within the Storm, Stress Wisely, and the upcoming I Hope So, Robyne joins us to share her five-pillar model of everyday resiliency—a framework grounded in 20 years of research, wrapped in stories you won’t forget.


    We dive into her journey and her breaking points, from teen dropout to tenured professor to full-time resilience coach. And how a life-changing car accident (and one brilliant question from her son) prompted her to walk away from her “dream job” to pursue a new path. Her message? Resilience isn’t about pushing through. It’s about aligning with what matters most.


    With clarity, science, and heartfelt personal stories, Robyne unpacks the five pillars of resilience—Belonging, Perspective, Acceptance, Hope, and Humor—and gives us the tools to model them, especially in the face of stress, rejection, or uncertainty in the real estate world.

  • 80. Team Contests That Actually Convert With Brent Hanson
    2025/04/28

    What do garage sales, candy jars, and car dealerships have in common?


    For Brent Hanson, they're all unexpected tools in his toolkit for building one of the fastest-growing real estate teams in the country.


    Brent is the co-owner of City of Trees Real Estate in Boise, Idaho—a team pulling in over $200 million in annual volume—and today, he walks us through the gamified systems that made that kind of scale possible. This isn’t surface-level rah-rah. Brent breaks down the exact psychological models behind sales contests, how to structure one in your own business, and what made the team’s 90 listings in 90 days challenge a massive success.


    We’ll talk about the “clarity curve,” the "why triangle" from page 77 of The Millionaire Real Estate Agent, and how to hack team motivation when your people are stuck in the “earn phase” of their growth. Brent also shares why he walked away from personal production after just two years to focus entirely on leadership—and why top producers are eager to join in his gamified culture.


    If you’ve ever struggled with accountability, consistency, or just plain enthusiasm, this episode will change the way you think about motivating yourself and others.


    Let’s dive in with Brent Hanson.
