Ever had a moment where someone casually says something—and it completely cracks open what you believed was possible? That’s exactly where today’s episode begins. We’re talking about the surprising, perspective-shifting stories that helped each of us realize: “I didn’t know I could do that.”

We talk about the rules we thought we had to follow, the expectations we carried from childhood, and the “joy moments” that led us to start designing lives we truly wanted. From month-long family travel and year-long worldschooling, to taking sabbaticals, reclaiming weekends, planning multigenerational trips, starting hobbies now instead of “someday,” and gifting our kids meaningful coming-of-age challenges—each story shows how one permission slip can reshape everything. We also talk about smaller breakthroughs that matter just as much, like taking a weekly day off in real estate, surprising your kids after school, or carving out intentional space during seasons of caregiving.

This episode is an invitation: What are the things you’ve always wanted to do but assumed you couldn’t? And what happens when you stop saying “I can’t” and start asking “How could I?” Building a big business matters—but the bigger life you create along the way is what you’ll remember most.

If you’ve ever wondered why some people seem to unlock opportunities effortlessly while others feel stuck on an island, this conversation is for you. Today we’re joined by USA Today bestselling author and high-value relationships expert Selena Soo to unpack the core framework behind her new book Rich Relationships, and the truth that one rich relationship is more valuable than a hundred casual connections.

Selena walks us through the six circles of connection and why discernment is the foundation of building a thriving, supportive, aligned network. We explore how to identify the people who want to see you win, how to gently distance yourself from relationships that drain or distract you, and how to intentionally deepen the ones that move your life and business forward. She also shares the three characteristics every rich relationship carries—respect, responsiveness, and a genuine desire for your success—and why these relationships create exponential financial, emotional, and strategic returns.

We also dive into breathtaking generosity, the art of becoming a “pain detective,” and how to show up with the kind of thoughtful, meaningful support that transforms lives. Selena reveals how to be a dream amplifier for the people you care about, how to express yourself even if you’re introverted, and why most entrepreneurs stay stuck simply because the right people don’t know what they want.

If your listings are sitting—and the market feels slower than ever—you’re not alone. This week, we’re diving into a strategy that has helped Sarah’s team move hundreds of listings even in a real estate recession: the Online Broker’s Open. It’s a simple, scalable twist on an old-school tactic that gives sellers the feedback they need, restores trust, and gets homes sold.

We break down exactly how to host your first Online Broker’s Open, whether you’re a solo agent or part of a large team. You’ll learn how to gather top agents on a Zoom call, what to review first (spoiler: it’s photos), and how to evaluate if your remarks actually spark emotion—or if they’re just generic filler. We also walk through how to analyze showing data, identify price problems, and present those findings to a seller in a way that strengthens your value and moves them toward the right decision.

If your listings need momentum, this strategy gives you leverage, collaboration, and clarity—all in under an hour. The best part? You can implement it this week.
