03 Apr 2023How I lost over 100lbs without dieting (and how it can help you as a real estate agent) - Episode 39600:13:27

In this podcast episode, Neil shares his story of how he lost over 100 pounds without dieting and how it can help real estate agents. He explains that he had tried almost every diet and lifestyle tip on weight loss but was still not successful. He realized that he needed to change his thinking and asked himself the question, "What do healthy people do?" This led him to make a list of things that healthy people do, such as drinking lots of water, wearing Fitbits, eating small portions of the right food, getting enough sleep, meditating, and taking cold showers. He then started doing what healthy people do and making decisions based on the question, "What do healthy people do?" He encourages others to do the same, and by changing their thinking, they can also become healthier and happier.  Now, what does this have to do with your real estate business?  You'll have to listen to this episode!

30 Jan 2023The Art of Appointments: Tips and Strategies for Real Estate Agents - Episode 38700:24:43

In the world of real estate, the key to success lies in winning those all-important listing appointments. With so many agents vying for the same listings, it's crucial to stand out from the crowd and demonstrate your value to potential clients.

One of the key ways to do this is by approaching your listing appointments as a listener. Many agents are so focused on selling themselves and their services that they forget to listen to what the seller really wants and needs. By going in with the mindset of a listener, you'll immediately differentiate yourself from the competition and start to build trust with the seller.

According to Mindi Kessenich, this is especially important in today's market, where buyers and sellers are both more nervous than ever. They're looking for someone they can trust, and the first step in building that trust is to listen and address their concerns.

Neil Mathweg, another seasoned real estate professional, agrees that asking questions is the key to winning listings. He emphasizes the importance of asking questions not only at the appointment, but also before the appointment, through the use of a questionnaire. By gathering information about the seller's needs and concerns, you'll be better equipped to serve them.

Once you've asked questions and established a rapport with the seller, it's essential to follow up with honesty. Mindi suggests asking for permission to be 100% honest as you tour the home, as this demonstrates your expertise and builds trust. By giving the seller an honest assessment of their property, you'll establish yourself as the go-to agent in their eyes.

In conclusion, the art of winning listing appointments requires a combination of listening, asking questions, and honesty. By approaching each appointment with these principles in mind, you'll set yourself apart from the competition and establish a relationship of trust with your clients.

10 Jul 2023Setting Boundaries in Real Estate: Your Key to Success - Episode 40700:20:45

Setting Boundaries in Real Estate: Your Key to Success

Welcome back! This week, we're diving into a topic that might make some of you slightly uncomfortable, but is essential for thriving in real estate: setting boundaries. Continuing our conversation from last week, when we discussed the power of setting three goals over 12 weeks, day blocking, and the ever-elusive concept of vacations, this time we're focusing on how to effectively draw lines in the sand with clients and with yourself.

In the latest episode of the Agent Rise podcast, hosts Neil Mathweg and Mindi Kessenich discuss the love-hate relationship agents often have with boundaries and share their insights on how to successfully manage expectations and prevent burnout in a fast-paced real estate world.

Let's dive into the key takeaways.

Real Estate is not a 24/7 Job

Many agents start their careers under the impression that they have to be available 24/7 to succeed. It's an understandable misconception, considering that many clients can only view properties or discuss transactions outside of their work hours. But in reality, constantly being on call can lead to resentment, exhaustion, and ultimately, a less satisfying professional and personal life.

One of the podcast's highlights was Mindi's win story. After scheduling a weekend viewing for a client who was only casually browsing, she decided to set a boundary, suggesting postponing the showing until after the holiday weekend. And the outcome? The client was completely understanding, giving Mindi her Saturday back and reinforcing the importance of setting clear expectations with clients.

Setting Boundaries is Essential

Neil pointed out that one common mistake agents make is not setting boundaries until they've reached the point of burnout. Many agents are so desperate to secure deals that they won't risk upsetting a potential client by expressing their availability limits. However, this approach can lead to a buildup of resentment and dissatisfaction that could potentially harm the agent-client relationship in the long run.

According to Mindi, part of the problem is fear - fear that if you set boundaries, clients won't want to work with you. However, if you communicate your availability clearly and in a professional manner, most clients will understand and respect your schedule. The key is to have this conversation early in the relationship to avoid any misunderstandings or resentment later on.

It's About Expectations and Confidence

When it comes to boundaries, it all boils down to setting clear expectations and having the confidence to enforce them. As Neil stressed, you have to come from a place of confidence to effectively set and maintain boundaries. If you are assured in the value you bring to the table, clients will respect your boundaries and may even admire your professional integrity.

The Benefits of a Team

A team can be a significant asset when it comes to maintaining boundaries. If you can't manage a showing due to your personal commitments, having a team member step in ensures your clients' needs are met without infringing on your personal time. It's all about managing client expectations and letting them know upfront that while you may not always be available, there is a team behind you ready to assist.

Picture the Future

One exercise Neil recommended for listeners was to imagine managing 50 transactions in a year. This visualization helps agents realize the necessity of setting boundaries and having a clear structure in place. Working non-stop might seem feasible for 5 or 10 transactions a year, but as your business grows, so does the importance of a healthy work-life balance.

As we wrap up, remember that setting boundaries is not just about protecting your personal time, it's about delivering the best possible service to your clients. By being transparent about your availability and maintaining those boundaries, you show your clients that you value both your time and theirs, which can significantly boost their respect for you and improve your working relationship.

Maximizing Momentum: A Guide to Taking Inventory in Your Real Estate Business

In this episode of the podcast, Neil discusses the importance of taking inventory as a real estate agent in order to capitalize on the opportunities and momentum available to you. Starting the new year with a blank slate is not necessary, as real estate agents have inventory and momentum that can be leveraged to drive success.

One key aspect of taking inventory discussed in the episode is leads from previous years. Many buyers take multiple years to make a purchasing decision and it is important to continue to follow up with these leads, even if it means doing so manually.  The power of personalized, hand-written notes in building relationships and making an impact with leads.

Additionally, the importance of leveraging one's sphere of influence and utilizing monthly mailings to deepen relationships and drive success.

13 Mar 2023Finding Opportunities in a Tight Real Estate Market - Part 1 - Episode 39300:17:59

"Finding Opportunities in a Tight Real Estate Market"

In this episode of the Agent Rise podcast, co-hosts Neil Mathweg and Mindy Kessenich discuss the current state of the real estate market and the opportunities it presents. They liken the market to a balloon that, when squeezed in one area, shrinks, but expands in another. Despite the market being tight and inventory low, they believe there are still ample opportunities to be found.

In this episode, we'll share three opportunities we see right now.  One such opportunity they discuss is working with investors. While interest rates may be higher, rents are also increasing, making investment properties a viable option. Many people are holding onto their current homes due to low interest rates and may be interested in investing in real estate in other ways.

The importance of looking for opportunities rather than dwelling on the challenges presented by the current market. By focusing on what you can control and being open to new possibilities, you can continue to thrive in the real estate industry.

24 Apr 2023Removing Limiting Beliefs: Rewriting the Past and Finding Acceptance - Episode 39900:37:09

In this episode of the Agent Rise podcast, co-hosts Neil Mathweg and Mindi Kessenich delve into the concept of removing limiting beliefs that can hinder our path to success. 

Drawing from his personal experience, Neil shares a childhood memory that had a profound impact on his identity and how he was able to rewrite those memories.

The memory that Neil recounts involves being called out and compared to the character "Chunk" from the movie The Goonies by one of his best friend's friends. To gain acceptance and approval from others, Neil resorted to humor and entertainment. He reflects on how this belief carried on into his adulthood and influenced his weight loss journey. He believed that being big and funny was the key to acceptance, and losing weight would result in losing that acceptance.

Mindi also shares a scary part of her childhood and how these past memories continue to play out multiple times in her life.  You'll hear how powerful it has become to rewrite these memories to better serve her today. 

Neil goes on to discuss how he learned to talk to himself instead of listing to himself, a concept he picked up from TJ McGraw, the featured guest on this episode. TJ joins the podcast and shares his insights on how limiting beliefs can hold us back from reaching our true potential and how we can rewrite the narrative in our minds.

TJ emphasizes the importance of identifying and acknowledging limiting beliefs, and then actively challenging and rewriting them to create a new empowering belief system. He and Neil discuss the power of self-talk and how it shapes our beliefs and actions. They also explore the role of acceptance and approval from others in our lives and how it can impact our self-worth and confidence.

Neil shares how rewriting his past memory and changing his belief about acceptance and approval has transformed his life and allowed him to see himself in a new light. He encourages listeners to reflect on their own limiting beliefs and take steps to rewrite them in order to unlock their true potential.

The key takeaways from this episode are that limiting beliefs can hold us back from achieving our true potential and need to be identified, acknowledged, challenged, and rewritten. Self-talk plays a crucial role in shaping our beliefs and actions, and it's important to listen to ourselves and actively talk to ourselves in empowering ways. Acceptance and approval from others should not be the sole basis of our self-worth and confidence, and it's essential to recognize our intrinsic value and worthiness. Rewriting past memories and changing our beliefs about ourselves can lead to transformation and help us remove the limiting beliefs that stand in our way.

Don't miss this insightful episode on removing limiting beliefs and gaining a new perspective on acceptance, approval, and self-talk. Tune in now to the Agent Rise podcast!

Neil shares a heartfelt story about a past client who chose another agent because he didn't believe in the price she hoped for. This incident wasn’t just about the lost listing for Neil, but a profound lesson in the importance of understanding and working collaboratively with clients on pricing decisions.

Mindi highlights a critical point - pricing isn't about dictating a number but offering a perspective. As real estate agents, we are armed with data, comparable market analyses, and years of experience. Yet, the pricing process is a collaboration, where both the agent and the homeowner arrive at the final number together. 

But it's not just about the price tag. It's about the strategy. Do you want to go the retail route, set a fair price, or try an auction approach? Every property, every seller, and every market situation is unique. It's crucial for agents to be flexible in their approach and to be equipped with multiple strategies to find the perfect fit.

In the ever-evolving world of real estate, where market conditions can change overnight, understanding the art of pricing is crucial. Listening to clients, conducting thorough research, and being willing to adapt are the cornerstones of ensuring every property is priced right.

07 Nov 2022How Real Estate Agents Should Shift In A High Interest Rate Market - Part 3 - Episode 37700:27:27

How Real Estate Agents Should Shift In A High Interest Rate Market - Part 3 - Episode 377

If you're like most real estate agents, your market is shifting before your eyes.  With interest rates up over 7% we're seeing buyer demand pull way back and homes taking longer to sell.  How do we navigate through this shift and how do you as an agent position you're self to flourish?  

In this episode,

Who is going to give up the 3% rate? No one is going to move. Wrong. They are saying sales could slide 20%. I don’t but if that was the case. Don’t focus on the 20% that won’t. Focus on the 80% that will. 

38% of homeowners don’t have a mortgage. So more than 1/3rd of the population could care less what the interest rates are. And how many owe less than $100,000? 

You have to ask "who will be moving?"  We uncover that in this episode.  

Plus we discuss how it’s our time to shine as great listing agents.  It's time to be excellent at staging, photos, and video.  How to set great expectations with your sellers, and set up a communication plan for success.  All of this and much more!

17 Jul 2023Finding Abundance in Your Real Estate Business: Lessons from the Sand Dollar Story - Episode 40800:23:56

In this episode of the Agent Rise podcast, co-hosts Neil Mathweg and Mindi Kessenich share an inspiring story from a recent experience of finding sand dollars at the beach before the Agent Rise Summit. This story serves as a powerful metaphor for finding abundance and opportunities in your real estate business. We'll delve into the sand dollar story and explore how it can help you shift your mindset and achieve success in the real estate industry.

The Mindset Shift

From Lack to Opportunity, Neil and Mindi emphasized the importance of shifting your mindset from a place of lack to a mindset of opportunity. They highlighted how easy it is to become consumed by the things you lack in your real estate business. By constantly fixating on what you don't have, you limit your ability to see the opportunities that surround you.

The sand dollar story reminds us that by focusing on opportunities, being open to new experiences, and taking action, we can discover unexpected sources of success.

The Power of Engagements: Consistency and Building Relationships

Mindi emphasized the importance of engagements, which are the foundation of a thriving real estate business. Engagements involve connecting with people, fostering relationships, and staying top of mind with your sphere of influence. Mindi shared practical strategies such as going on walks, arranging coffee or lunch appointments, and attending gatherings to expand engagements.

Neil further discussed the three pillars of a real estate business: sphere, chase, and attraction. By working consistently on engagements, you can nurture your sphere of influence, generate leads through chasing prospects, and expand your reach through attraction marketing. The key is to stay consistent, even during slower market seasons or busy periods when it's tempting to neglect engagements.

Flexibility and Customization: Adapting Day Blocking to Your Needs

Neil mentioned the flexibility of day blocking, which allows real estate professionals to tailor their schedules to their unique circumstances and preferences. While the original day-blocking plan provides structure and guidelines, it's essential to adapt it to your current season of life and work.

Whether you're a new agent, experiencing different market conditions, or juggling personal commitments, customizing your day blocking can help you maintain consistency while adjusting to your specific needs. The goal is to develop sustainable habits that support your business growth and keep engagements at the forefront of your daily activities.

Embracing Trust and Action: Overcoming Overthinking and Imposter Syndrome

Mindi and Neil discussed the importance of trust in oneself and the need to overcome overthinking and imposter syndrome. Mindi shared her experience of developing the habit of taking daily walks and how it became a priority for her, even when her routine shifted during the summer months. Similarly, in the real estate business, once you've developed consistent habits and priorities, you can trust yourself to take action and seize opportunities.

Neil acknowledged that overthinking can hinder progress and emphasized the significance of taking action without feeling the need to be overly prepared. Many real estate agents fall into the trap of being perpetual students, always seeking more knowledge but not taking the necessary steps to succeed. The sand dollar story serves as a reminder to get out of your own way, trust yourself, and take action.

Conclusion: The sand dollar story is a powerful metaphor for finding abundance and opportunities in your real estate business. By shifting your mindset from lack to opportunity, staying consistent with engagements, customizing day blocking to your needs, and embracing trust and action, you can achieve success and propel your business forward.

Remember, just like Neil and Mindi found an abundance of sand dollars by taking action and staying open to possibilities, you too can discover endless opportunities in your real estate business by maintaining a mindset of abundance and consistently engaging with your network.

31 Jul 2023Unlock the Secrets to Surpass Your Real Estate Career's Upper Limit - Episode 41000:28:55

In the episode of Agent Rise, Neil Mathweg and Mindi Kessenich discuss the subconscious fear and discomfort that limit us from fulfilling our potential. They underscore the need to train your subconscious mind to overcome these barriers.

The podcast begins with Mindi recounting her personal journey in becoming a team leader. She shares her initial struggles and fears, and the persistence it took to overcome them. She uses her experience to illustrate the universal concept of an upper limit – the subconscious limitations that impede our forward progress, even when we consciously dream and aim higher.

Neil elaborates on this idea, suggesting that our subconscious mind often pulls us back into our comfort zone, delaying our growth. He stresses the importance of repeatedly affirming our beliefs to retrain our subconscious, eventually catching up with our conscious visions.

They discuss the role of a coach in this journey, pointing out that a coach provides the push required when one is unable to overcome their fears. Through their discussion, the co-hosts illuminate the ways in which individuals can break free from these self-imposed barriers, chase after their dreams, and create new possibilities for success.

This thought-provoking episode concludes with Neil discussing the Dunning-Kruger effect, a psychological pattern often observed when people embark on a new endeavor. With their insightful conversations and real-life examples, Neil and Mindi inspire listeners to confront and overcome their own upper limits.

19 Jun 2023Redefining Real Estate: Professionalism and Exceptional Service (Episode 405)00:25:29

Redefining Real Estate: Professionalism and Exceptional Service

In this episode, Mindi Kessenich, delves into the importance of maintaining professional standards, building a solid foundation, and presenting yourself and your offers with distinction. Whether you're a seasoned agent or just starting out, these insights will help you attract clients and stand out in a competitive market.

  1. Building the Transmission: Setting the Foundation In real estate, it's essential to prioritize building the transmission before focusing on aesthetics. Just like waxing a car while the transmission is broken, making your business look pretty without a solid foundation can lead to inefficiencies and missed opportunities. Invest time and effort into developing robust processes, systems, and a well-oiled machine. This foundation will empower you to serve clients effectively and set the stage for future growth.

  2. Real Estate as a Platform for Service: Embracing Opportunities Real estate is more than just buying and selling properties; it's a platform to love, serve, and lead others. Instead of conforming to a predetermined mold, seize the opportunity to express your unique approach and values. Challenge the industry norms and strive to make a positive impact. By embracing this mindset, you can differentiate yourself and provide exceptional service that resonates with clients.

  3. Integrity and Professionalism: The Cornerstones of Success Integrity and professionalism are inseparable in the real estate industry. Upholding ethical standards is paramount, ensuring that your clients' trust and best interests are always at the forefront. Beyond the basics, go the extra mile by being an excellent communicator and doing thorough due diligence. Show up as a true professional by knowing your clients inside out and being well-prepared for every interaction.

  4. Going the Extra Mile: Building Relationships and a Legacy As a real estate agent, you have the opportunity to be a leader and build a lasting legacy. Consider each transaction as an opportunity to leave a positive and lasting impression on everyone involved. Whether it's responding promptly to emails, going above and beyond for all parties, or being a reliable resource, every action can shape how you are perceived. By nurturing relationships and showcasing professionalism, you pave the way for future success.

  5. Doing Your Homework: Enhancing Listing Excellence To excel as a listing agent, thorough research and attention to detail are crucial. Create checklists and systems to ensure you never overlook any important property details. Show sellers that you genuinely value their time by being well-prepared and knowledgeable. By being proactive and addressing potential concerns upfront, you demonstrate your commitment to providing an exceptional experience.

  6. Sprucing Up Presentations: Captivating Clients and Setting Yourself Apart In today's competitive market, it's essential to differentiate yourself when presenting offers. Utilize digital resources like Etsy and Canva to create visually stunning and personalized presentations. Explore professionally designed templates that you can easily customize with your branding and contact information. These eye-catching materials will make a lasting impression on clients and fellow agents, showcasing your dedication and attention to detail.

Conclusion: Elevating your real estate business requires a combination of professional standards and standout presentations. By building a solid foundation, embracing opportunities for service, and prioritizing integrity and professionalism, you can set yourself apart from the competition. Invest in doing your homework, exceeding expectations, and leveraging digital tools to create captivating presentations. Remember, your success in real estate not only lies in commissions but also in the relationships you build and the legacy you leave. Embrace these strategies and watch your business flourish in today's dynamic market.

In this episode, we're diving deep into the dynamics of selling properties in today's slower market. If you've been facing the challenge of listings that aren't moving as quickly as you'd like, you're not alone.

We'll also discuss the importance of removing or improving photos and ensuring no vital shots are missing.

Next, we explore the property itself. Are showings going well? Are potential buyers leaving positive remarks, or is something holding them back? We'll share tips on how to make your property shine, from staging to highlighting its best features. We also emphasize the role of open houses in intensifying buyer interest.

Of course, price plays a crucial role in the equation. We'll come back to this, focusing on the value your listing offers to prospective buyers. Learn how to navigate price adjustments and consider other incentives to align your property with market expectations.

But it doesn't stop there. Effective communication with your seller is paramount. We discuss how to establish a strong partnership, ensuring you're both on the same team, working together towards a common goal. You'll discover the importance of regular update calls and how they can transform your relationship with sellers.

Additionally, we touch on strategies like digging deep with potential buyers, reverse prospecting, and expanding your marketing efforts to reach a broader audience. Even if your listing isn't brand new, there are creative ways to reposition it as "now available" and generate fresh interest.

Join us on this episode as we provide valuable insights and actionable steps to sell those "unsellable" listings. Remember, success in real estate is about believing in your ability to adapt, adjust, and ultimately get the job done. Tune in now and be the reason someone smiles today!

Attending industry conferences and summits can be a game-changer for real estate agents. These events provide valuable opportunities for personal growth, networking, and gaining insights from industry experts. In this episode, we'll delve into the Agent Rise Summit 2023, an event that highlighted the transformative power of getting in the room with like-minded individuals. We'll explore some of the key takeaways from the summit, the importance of connecting in person, and the significant impact it can have on a real estate agent's business and mindset.

Unpacking the Agent Rise Summit 2023: The Agent Rise Summit 2023 brought together real estate agents from all over the country for an immersive experience focused on personal and professional development. Hosted by Neil Mathweg, in Downtown Fort Myers, FL.  The summit was a platform for sharing valuable insights and fostering a supportive community.

  1. The Power of Being in the Room: One of the main themes that emerged from the summit was the power of physically being in the room with fellow agents. While virtual interactions have their place, there's a unique energy and connection that comes from face-to-face interactions. Attendees raved about the life-changing moments, new perspectives gained, and the excitement that arose from being surrounded by like-minded individuals.

  2. The Importance of Networking: The summit emphasized the significance of networking and building meaningful connections within the industry. Attendees had the opportunity to engage in conversations with other agents, share experiences, and exchange ideas. The sense of camaraderie and support was palpable, as agents encouraged and cheered each other on in their pursuit of success.

  3. Overcoming Limiting Beliefs and Dreaming Big: Mindy Kessenich shared her personal experience of confronting limiting beliefs and allowing herself to dream big. The summit provided a safe and empowering environment for her to acknowledge her goals and aspirations, even those she had been hesitant to admit before. The encouragement and cheer from fellow attendees solidified her belief in herself and her dreams, inspiring her to take bold actions and make significant strides in her business.

  4. Sparking Momentum and Taking Action: TJ McGraw highlighted the transformative impact the summit had on his team members. The event served as a catalyst for shedding limiting beliefs and adopting a growth mindset. Agents who initially harbored doubts and concerns left the summit on fire, ready to take massive action. The positive language shifted from "I can't" to "I want to" and "I will," as agents expressed their intentions to explore new marketing strategies, launch social media campaigns, and embrace their full potential.

  5. Personal Triumphs and New Directions: The summit not only ignited agents' professional aspirations but also facilitated personal triumphs. Tyler, an attendee, shared his remarkable story of surviving a devastating motorcycle accident. The summit empowered him to embrace his new reality, challenge his limitations, and pursue his real estate business with unwavering determination. Tyler's inspiring journey epitomizes the resilience and strength that can be found within the real estate community.

Attending events like the Agent Rise Summit 2023 can be a transformative experience for real estate agents. The power of getting in the room with like-minded individuals, connecting on a deeper level, and exchanging insights is immeasurable.

31 Oct 2022How Real Estate Agents Should Shift In A High Interest Rate Market - Part 2 - Episode 37600:14:40

How Real Estate Agents Should Shift In A High Interest Rate Market - Part 2 - Episode 376

If you're like most real estate agents, your market is shifting before your eyes.  With interest rates up over 7% we're seeing buyer demand pull way back and homes taking longer to sell.  How do we navigate through this shift and how do you as an agent position you're self to flourish?  

In this episode, we cover the realization that...

“Low interest rates weren’t FREE” - Mindi Sue Kessenich
 
It came at the cost of:
👉 Paying over asking, sometimes $50k $100k more
👉 It often came with having to wave inspection to stand out from the other offers.
👉 It often came with no terms in favor of the buyer.
👉It came with a horrible shopping experience that left most buyers exhausted and burnt out. It’s left most agents beyond exhausted, many with PTSD and little desire to enjoy their careers.
 
Today the market is so much better for buyers -
👉 better deals, well at least not paying over ask
👉 better terms, can actually have an inspection
👉 and way better shopping experience. You can actually negotiate. There is enough inventory to pick from.
The ONLY con is the interest rates.
But here is the thing… we can actually do something about the interest rates. We couldn’t do anything to cool the sellers' market. Get excited we can do something about interest rates.
 
What lender has the best deal? We can do something about the rates:
👉 Buydowns
👉 ARM’s
👉 Assumable VA, FHA, and USDA Loans
👉 n/a for a cash buyer
 
Agents, don’t be afraid of high interest rates, and instead, take the energy and go find the best deals from lenders. Understand the best deals and be the agent that really helps buyers find the best rates and plans.

20 Feb 2023The Real Estate Agent's Guide to Quieting the Mind and Maximizing Sales - Episode 39000:27:27

The Real Estate Agent's Guide to Quieting the Mind and Maximizing Sales

In this episode of Agent Rise Podcast, host Neil Mathweg and Mindi Kessenich continue their discussion from the previous week about quieting the mind to find the answer. They talk about how in the winter market when there is excitement, fear, and lack of motivation, people often turn their attention to challenges rather than opportunities. However, one can decide where to focus their attention and control their thoughts.

Quieting the mind is essential to get out of the mess and shifting one's mindset. By imagining a peaceful state and relaxing the mind, one can find the answer to their problems. They also advise that one should not give up on their goals and plans despite the challenges of the deep, dark winter, and instead keep planning and working towards them as if it's going to be the best year ever. The hosts conclude by saying that the hardest, easiest thing in the world is to quiet the mind, rely on the source, and keep going.
