Hustle Humbly Podcast

It’s our 5th birthday today and we are sharing how the show and our advice has changed you, our listeners. We can barely believe it was 5 whole years ago when we met up for breakfast on podcast release day. We hoped to get just 100 downloads that day and now we’ve surpassed 2,000,000. But this episode and this birthday aren’t about us; it’s about YOU! So many kind listeners wrote in to tell us how the show has impacted their lives and how it makes them feel and we are sharing their thoughts with you. From buying their brokerage to being able to afford their dream to simply finding a way to work peacefully while raising 5 kids, Hustle Humbly has played a part. You’ve listened to us in the car, the shower, while walking the dog, training for a marathon, doing laundry and dishes, and so much more. We are beyond grateful for each of you and so humbled by these stories and all of our listeners who keep returning every Monday. Maybe you feel like we are friends and the truth is we ARE. Thank you for everything!

Who could have guessed the movie we would most often quote in reference to real estate would be “He’s Just Not That Into You”? As it turns out dating behavior parallels quite nicely to the situations we come across as agents.  The romantic comedy “He’s Just Not That Into You” gives a hilarious glimpse into the complexities of relationships. This dynamic can surprisingly mirror the interactions between real estate agents and their clients. The world of real estate is filled with mixed signals, searching for signs, waiting for the phone to ring and the desperate need for honest communication. Join us for a fun chat about the movie that got Alissa through a break-up back in the day and continues to provide wisdom for our real estate businesses now.    Leave us a review at ratethispodcast.com/hustlehumbly Get your FREE Database Template  Email Templates 101: emailtemplates101.com Build Your Own Business 101: hustlehumblypodcast.com/byob Agent Systems 101: agentsystems101.com All Resources: hustlehumblypodcast.com Submit your topic ideas and toasts to team@hustlehumblypodcast.com.
