We all have different things in our past and present, and then in our future that makes us all unique." "It's easy to look at someone and say, 'It must be nice.' Well, you don't know what that other person has gone through and what they've endured in their life to get to where they are." "If I feel good about the work that I am doing behind the scenes and I'm staying true to my core values, it doesn't matter what anybody else thinks." "If there's something that I want to do, I just look at it like, okay, eventually I will do that thing. I just have to figure out how to do that thing." "There never was a mindset that I would not be able to drive. It was more about how I was going to do it and what modifications would be involved." "If you want it bad enough, then nothing is gonna stop you." "If you truly want to make a difference in somebody's life, if you can touch just one person, make a difference for one person, then you absolutely need to write it (book)." "You can find your purpose a lot quicker if you step outside of self and start looking at the world through a lens of how you can be of service to others." "If someone has something worthwhile to say, I think it is on that person to get the training they need so that they can become the most effective communicator that they can be." "Everyone's success is different … we don't even realize how much we have accomplished and how far we have come, what we have overcome."

"You don't need to be silent about who you are and what you believe … it's not a backpack you take on and off if you truly believe what you believe." "The most important thing I'm going to do is not build a business … it's how I show up for my family." "Care doesn't come from how much something costs. It comes from showing up and being present."

"We misunderstand, as if our clients and consumers need us to spend a lot of money. What they're really lacking in this world is a genuine relationship with people."

    Episode 310 The Balanced Breakthrough with Garrett Maroon (Part 1)
    Mar 27 2026

    John talks with Garrett Maroon — real estate entrepreneur, coach, founder of the 210 Collective (a community for Christian real estate agents), host of The Faithful Agent Podcast, author of The Balanced Breakthrough: Winning at Work Without Losing at Life, and devoted husband and dad of five.

    Listen to this episode to learn more:

    [00:00] - Intro

    [01:21] - Garrett's bio

    [03:41] - Garrett's journey from $40K job to real estate

    [08:02] - Transition from employee to entrepreneur

    [09:55] - Hiring a coach when you're broke

    [13:40] - Support from his wife during tough times

    [15:27] - Setting a big goal and making it possible

    [18:48] - Survival mode in business and life pressure

    [22:23] - What is the 210 Collective?

    [25:35] - Choosing relationships over cold calling, door knocking, etc

    [28:08] - The special intuition women have

    [31:05] - The Balanced Breakthrough book

    NOTABLE QUOTES:

    "The person who doesn't give up is the person who wins."

    "The only thing worse than not knowing how much you're going to make is knowing exactly how much you're going to make, and not having any say over that."

    "Business is like walking into a pitch-black room, trying to find a light switch."

    "As business owners, we don't give ourselves enough grace. Business is not a place where the coach can just say, 'Here's a light switch. I'll switch it on for you.' That's not how business works. Business works by failing enough times to finally figure out where that switch is. You figure it out by failing, learning, and trying again. A coach can guide you faster, but you'll still hit walls along the way."

    "When we give ourselves an infinite runway, the plane will eventually take off. It's when we shut the runway too quickly that the plane never gets there."

    "We've got to restore the right definition of what winning is, and then achieve it in a way that allows us to still show up and be present with family. Because that's what matters at the end of the day."

    "Are you willing to struggle for six months to potentially have a completely new life after that?"

    "In five years from now, who would you be most proud of: the person who figured out how to double their profit but had to work 60 hours a week and miss their family, or the person who figured out how to work less and still earn the same income?"

    Episode 309 The Hidden Heist: Unlocking Lasting Wealth & Relationships with Bill Cates
    Mar 20 2026

Bill has spent more than 30 years in financial services, helping thousands of advisors bring in billions of dollars through better referrals, relationship marketing, and messaging.

It's not, 'I'll get around to it someday.' It's critical." "Marketing is getting your message out. It's a promotion. It's getting your message out in front of people with the intention of attracting them to you." "If it's not relevant, your message will be ignored." "If you're all prospecting, it's tiring. It's a grind. But as you market your product, service, or brand better, you start to attract people to you, and you catch them later on in the process." "Most people don't have the patience to pay themselves first, make their savings automatic, and let it build over time. That takes a unique, disciplined mindset, but it's extremely powerful when you do." "When you learn how money really works, it sometimes sheds light on what you were or weren't taught when you were younger." "Sometimes we don't have the vision yet. Sometimes we're not clear on it, and creating that vision can be a process." "Everyone in an organization, whether you're in sales, marketing, customer service, a clerk, or whatever, should know who the customer is. We should all know our value, and we should all know how to talk about it." "You get clarity through imperfect action. You start heading in a direction you think is right, make some mistakes along the way, and make adjustments. That's when clarity starts to come." "Just about everybody trying to produce any kind of result, it boils down to confidence. Because if you don't have that, you won't get to the next stage." "You don't want just word of mouth. You want to get connected with people. So use the word that represents that." "The hidden heists are the limiting beliefs and mistaken assumptions we all have around money. There's a lot of money story going on for us." "If you're stuck somewhere, the first place to go isn't necessarily strategy or tactics. It might be to self-reflect, on your business, your product, and your belief in yourself."

"Those date nights are super, super important. But I encourage every man to do this: date night is yours. You own it. You're in charge of it. You plan it. You figure out where you're going. Her job is to show up and look beautiful. That's it. You're in charge." "I believe that it is encoded in our DNA, as men, to pursue. We know how to do that. But something happens to us once we get her, meaning the wedding day. It's like a switch back here turns off. We stop pursuing." "Everything else you do in life is built around date night. Everything. It's that important. Without it, your marriage is going to die." "I always think of health first, personally, because I feel like if my health is off, everything else is off.

    "There's ups and downs through business, through life, or whatever it is. So having that person as a support, an amazing support system, is huge."

    "If you're working on your relationship together, and the two of you are staying together as one and building that, you can overcome anything."

If you start telling stories about people who had my problem and how you helped them, I want to learn more. Those are the stories we need to be telling, at least initially."

    NOTABLE QUOTES:

    "Life just goes on. You have a disaster, and life is not going to stop. Bills don't stop. They may give you a little bit of relief, but they're like, 'Okay, I understand that, but when are you going to pay this?'"

    "When people come to me and they have a problem, they don't need me to remind them that they have a problem. They already know. So what they're looking for is a solution."

    "It's very important for a leader to listen, communicate, and lead by example."

    "Remain teachable and coachable, and it will get you so much further than being a know-it-all, because you don't know what you don't know."

    "If you want to hire somebody as your coach and that person is not being coached, do not hire that person."

    "I make time in my relationship just like I do for my clients."

    "We need to set aside time in our schedule to spend time with just you and me. We take time for ourselves, because if not, then everything else becomes more important than the relationship."
