When is it Time to Seek Professional Help (LA 1633)
Transcript:
Steven Butala:
Steve and Jill here.
Jill DeWit:
Hi.
Steven Butala:
Welcome to the Land Academy Show, entertaining land investment talk. I'm Steven Jack Butala.
Jill DeWit:
And I'm Jill DeWit, broadcasting from the Valley of the Sun.
Steven Butala:
Today, Jill and I talk about when is it time to seek professional help?
Jill DeWit:
No, we don't mean marriage counseling, or whatever issues that you're having.
Steven Butala:
Are you sure? I disagree. There's no way we can do this episode without addressing this stuff.
Jill DeWit:
Oh, okay. Got it. That's not where I was going, though.
Steven Butala:
Every week Jill and I sit down, usually pretty briefly and say, "All right. Let's come up with five topics," and so first thing I do is I go into Discord and see what's on everybody's mind and try to make this some semblance of intelligent. That's not what Jill does. She goes off and she's like, "This is what people need. We need to-"
Jill DeWit:
And this is my topic. You can [crosstalk 00:00:53].
Steven Butala:
I know. This is Jill's topic. That's my point.
Jill DeWit:
It's clearly mine.
Steven Butala:
It started out, what she really meant was this.
Jill DeWit:
We'll get to it.
Steven Butala:
Okay.
Jill DeWit:
Okay. It's-
Steven Butala:
I can-
Jill DeWit:
We'll get to you in a minute.
Steven Butala:
Before we get into it, maybe we need help. Let's take a question posted by one of our members on the landinvestors.com online community. It's free. Don't forget to subscribe on the Land Academy YouTube channel and comment on the shows you like.

James wrote, "Kevin, I appreciate you simplifying problems such as pricing and picking the county and help me get past analysis paralysis. I'm finally closing on three deals and will continue to seek your safe consult to get me past stock points."
Jill DeWit:
Kevin wrote, "I've been watching your discussions here and you are looking good. Keep up the good work." I like this little blip, because it does tie into today and what I'm talking about. Pro help means someone beyond you.
Steven Butala:
Kevin Farrell is one of our moderators. He is the Discord moderator. He's presented at our live events. He's truly doing this to give back and help everybody and do deals with everybody. He's coming at this from his heart.
Jill DeWit:
Yeah.
Steven Butala:
He's just a great guy. I can't say enough good stuff, and his advice is correct.
Jill DeWit:
Right.
Steven Butala:
Today's topic?
Jill DeWit:
I'm waiting for the topic [crosstalk 00:02:17]
Steven Butala:
When is it time to seek professional help? This is the meat of the show.
Jill DeWit:
Okay. So here's what I'm talking about. And it's not necessarily someone that's beyond you, so that's not really correct. Maybe it's someone who's doing something totally different that you want to learn from.
Steven Butala:
Maybe it's Kevin.
Jill DeWit:
I happened to, just the other day, I jumped on somebody else's Clubhouse chat. It was the funniest thing. Halfway into this guy's chat, it was on mobile homes and mobile home parks. So I'm like, "Okay, I want to hear what this guy's saying," so I jumped in the room and there was nobody else on stage. It was just kind of him talking. I think he answered some questions early on in the call. But at that point it was just him. He said something to me that, of course, struck a chord, so I raised my hand.
Jill DeWit:
If you're in Clubhouse, you know what I mean. You raise your hand and you get invited on stage. So for the second half hour, it was just this guy and I talking, and everybody else is listening.
Steven Butala:
Darn, Jill.
Jill DeWit:
It was so funny because we had a great conversation. I think what it was, I [inaudible 00:03:16].
Steven Butala:
You co-hosted his show. There's a little bit of cheating going on here.
Jill DeWit:
I kind of did, and he really thanked me. It was so funny. He's like,
