Welcome to the very first episode of The Built Different Podcast.
Before I bring on guests and spotlight other high performers, I wanted to start with my own journey...
In this solo episode, I share my story from being first generation born in the U.S. & raised by immigrant parents with nothing but grit and work ethic… to getting lost in the wrong crowd, using and selling drugs in my teens… to making the hardest decision of my life to change everything.
You'll hear how I got clean, rebuilt my life, met my wife who helped save me, and discovered my natural gift for sales. From call centers to car sales to corporate tech, I found success but not fulfillment. I even lied about having a college degree just to get a shot at corporate tech sales… and somehow turned that opportunity into a leadership and training career.
Then came the leap that changed everything:
I cashed out my 401k.
I went all in on real estate.
No backup plan.
Year one was a grind with inconsistent income.
Year two brought momentum.
Year three? Just under $30 million closed as a solo agent and top 1% agent in Arizona.
This episode is about adversity, transformation, betting on yourself, refusing to quit, and what being "built different" truly means.
This podcast is for the entrepreneurs, the grinders, the dreamers, and anyone who knows they're meant for more.
If you're trying to level up mentally, personally, and professionally, this show is for you.
