276 | How a Burned-Out Agent Breaks Free From Hustle, Distraction, and Reactive Decision-Making w/ Rebecca Del Pozo

Burned-out agent—if that phrase hits a little too close to home, this episode is for you. In this conversation on The Faithful Agent Podcast, Garrett Maroon sits down with Rebecca Del Pozo—Millionaire Real Estate Mom Coach & Trainer and author of Stop Winging It: Don’t Accept Your Life, Lead It—to expose what’s really happening underneath the exhaustion so many agents normalize. Because burnout usually isn’t caused by one “crazy week.” It’s often the fruit of living in reaction mode: saying yes too fast, staying busy without being effective, and confusing hustle with faithfulness.

Rebecca shares the why behind her book and the John Maxwell quote that shaped it: most people accept their life—they don’t lead it. That idea becomes a mirror for the modern real estate professional. You can “wing it” and still get contracts signed. You can stay moving and still feel stuck. And you can build momentum in the marketplace while quietly becoming a burned-out agent at home—resentful, scattered, and always behind.

When you don’t trust God with the outcome, you start trying to force the process. That’s where ego, pride, and fear sneak in—especially for realtors of faith who genuinely want to honor the Lord but keep getting pulled toward shiny distractions, comparison, and reactive decisions. The result is the same: a calendar that owns you, a mind that won’t shut off, and a business that keeps feeding the real estate grind.

This episode gets extremely practical. Rebecca introduces the “not-to-do list”—a simple but powerful tool that reveals what drains you most and becomes a future job description (even if you can’t afford help yet). For the real estate agent who feels scattered, she offers a refreshing truth: the reset is often smaller than you think. Tiny acts of obedience—using a calendar consistently, showing up prepared, setting boundaries around social media, protecting your attention, and creating structure—can pull a burned-out agent back into clarity faster than another “big strategy” ever will.

They also confront one of the biggest time leaks in the industry: social media. Not because it’s wrong, but because many agents consume more than they create—and call it “work.” Rebecca shares how she sets timers, removes notifications, and builds parameters so her mind stays aligned with what actually matters. Garrett reinforces why this is so important: distraction isn’t neutral. It quietly drains your best energy and keeps you stuck in the real estate grind.

If you’re a burned-out agent who’s tired of winging it, tired of reacting, and tired of building a business that drains your home life, this episode will meet you with conviction and hope. You’ll walk away with practical steps to strengthen your realtor structure, build realtor systems, and create a faith driven business that’s sustainable—not frantic.
