Real people. Real conversations. Real experiences. From business owners and Realtors to community voices, creative projects, and everything that happens between the takes.
Sometimes it's a scheduled interview. Sometimes I pull up at a friend's office. Sometimes I'm covering a local event—or sitting down in the park to listen to somebody whose perspective deserves to be heard.
Behind the Listing is where those conversations and experiences live. No single industry. No single format.
These are people I know through work, networking, and relationships I've built along the way. Every conversation brings a different perspective.
I stopped by my friend Robert’s office after getting to know him through a networking group. We sat down for an unscripted conversation about financial planning, entrepreneurship, and why the money conversations people avoid matter. Robert: 240-452-0894.
Bridget, founder of Total Success Solutions, is a real estate coach and my business growth partner. I’ve worked with her on rebuilding her website. We talk about leadership, strategy, operations, and the systems entrepreneurs need to grow sustainably.
Adam is one of the Realtors I regularly create media and content for. He and mortgage professional Byron Reed join me to discuss pre-approval, buyer mistakes, offers, and the decisions between financing and closing. More Power Conversations are planned.
I met Phillip through a local Facebook group and sat down with him at MLK Park on a rainy evening in Martinsburg. We talked about youth, how the community sees young people, and the resources and opportunities they feel are missing. This one is about listening, not speaking for him.
From a broker's open with Kara and Ashley to an AI event at Lark Brewing, these are some of the real-life moments where I experiment, connect with people, and create content along the way.
I covered an AI for Real Estate event at Lark Brewing Co., hosted by Kara Macdonald. Leslie Samuel shared practical ideas for how agents can use AI for content, consistency, leads, and business growth. The best part was capturing the conversations and connections around the room.
I've covered broker's open events with Kara from Potomac Title Group and Ashley Harris from Truist Bank, capturing branding photos and the energy in the room. At one of those events, I decided to experiment with AI and turn the experience into a rap. It wasn't planned—I just caught the moment and had fun creating something different.
The Power Conversation brings professionals together for educational discussions—business structure, real estate decisions, leadership, mortgages, and the systems that make things work. There are more conversations planned.
