As they celebrate this remarkable milestone, they take a few minutes to review how they've grown both personally and professionally since the podcast’s inception, the lessons they've learned along the way, and how many of these lessons parallel real estate world wisdom as well.

Additionally, they highlight the parallels between podcasting and running a real estate business, particularly the need for consistency, frequency, and continuous improvement.

• The power of consistency

• Investing in quality

• Lessons from real estate

• The role of teamwork

• The value of listener feedback and how it shapes the content and direction of the podcast

"A lot of agents say, 'I can't do this myself. It's too frustrating,' instead of saying, 'Where can I make an investment into my business to help me move beyond this?'"

"When one of us is going down the wrong path or talking too much, it's good to call each other out."

"It's very easy to be like, 'We just need to be careful through that corner,' instead of learning and figuring it out."

"Your real, true business is the stuff that is growing it. It is your phone calls, your notes, all that stuff."

"The best thing you can do from a comparison perspective is compare yourself to who you were yesterday."

"We were excited to have ten downloads in the beginning, and now we're over two and a half million."

"This is where exponential growth comes out – when you're consistent in your real estate world."

"We need to transition your consistency from bursts of effort to a consistent, smooth flow of communication."

“Expand the search!”

“In confusing times people move towards value. People look for an expert and the opportunity to share education.”
