Sometimes the fastest way to grow your real estate business is to first grow into the person who runs it.

Julie Kaminski joins Matt & Garrett for a fantastic conversation about transformation, rewiring habits, and building a thriving real estate business by starting with your mornings. Julie shares her story of letting go and the exact practices that worked for her.

This episode dives into the quiet power of intentional routines, the courage to release old identities, and the discipline required to become the version of yourself your goals demand.

We explore:

• Why identity shifts fuel business breakthroughs
• The simple morning habits that changed everything
• Moving from “proving yourself” to trusting yourself
• Using routine to access calm, confidence, and clarity
• Releasing ego and building alignment instead
• Letting your life set the tone, not your phone or inbox

This isn’t about hustling harder — it’s about becoming the person who succeeds naturally because of how they live, think, and show up.

If you're ready for a season of becoming, this conversation will light the path.

Most agents think working from home gives them freedom — but for many, it quietly erodes standards, structure, and momentum.

In this episode, Matt & Garrett break down why some agents absolutely thrive with work-at-home environments… and why others slowly drift into distraction, reactivity, and “accidental real estate.” The difference isn’t talent — it’s intention, environment, and discipline.

Let's talk about it, and what tweaks make all the difference.

We get into:

• Why having a “work-from-home plan” matters more than simply working from home
• The real advantage of a structured office environment
• Morning discipline and why it predicts success
• The trap of blending home life & work life
• How to build standards that travel with you
• Creating intentional separation so your energy rises, not leaks

Whether you love the office, love working from home, or bounce between both — this episode will help you build discipline, protect your momentum, and actually win wherever you work.

Stop settling and find where your value matches your ambition.

Excited to share this very special conversation with one of our favorites, Pamela Cass. Realtor, executive coach, podcast host, and most recently, author(!!), Pam joins us to share her journey of transformation and resilience—from a kid with dyslexia who wanted to be invisible into a leader who helps others find their voice.

Pam's journey is proof that what we see as our greatest weakness can become our superpower.

Some of the things we get into:

• Resilience
• Adversity
• Empathy
• Creativity

One of our favorite themes—the idea that you should stop trying to "fix" yourself and start leaning into what makes you unique—is the underlying message here.

There's something here for everyone. If you've ever felt underestimated or wondered if you're in the wrong place, this episode will help you see yourself—and your value—completely differently.

We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did!

Pam is the co-author of "The Quiet Gift," past president of the Fort Collins Board of Realtors, and host of the Reignite Resilience podcast. Her story will challenge you to stop comparing yourself to others and start celebrating what only you can bring to the world.

Most agents think they’re bad at follow-up — and that the right CRM will finally fix it. The real issue is who they’re following up with. The good news? This is an easy fix with dramatic results.

In this episode, Matt & Garrett unpack why agents avoid their “real people” and instead chase strangers. A bloated, unfiltered database quietly sabotages both your systems and your confidence. When you narrow your core list to people you actually talk to, follow-up stops being heavy and starts being effective.

We dig into:

• Why more contacts ≠ more business
• How to identify your true “core” inside your database
• The psychological reason agents default to strangers
• A simple paper-and-highlighter method to find your people fast
• Why higher frequency with fewer people outperforms more hustle

Stop beating yourself up. You’re not “bad at follow-up” — you’ve just been focused on the wrong people. Let’s fix that and infuse your business with new energy and momentum.

Winning isn’t accidental — and neither is falling off after a win.

In this episode, Matt and Garrett break down the Thermostat Theory: the invisible standard you’ve set for yourself that quietly determines how high you rise… and when you stop. Most agents don’t fail because the goal is too big — they fail because their internal comfort setting pulls them back to “good enough.”

We dig into:

• Why momentum dies the moment you start to succeed
• How your standards — not your goals — are driving your outcomes
• The subtle identity shift required to raise your thermostat for good
• What leaders, brokers, and team builders get wrong about standards

If you keep restarting, relapsing, or cooling off the minute things go “well,” this one will hit home.
