Brandon Tracy is a real estate agent and business owner who has lived through at least two major dark nights of the soul: both of which catalyzed him to re-evaluate his life and how he approached his goals. He talks to Mighty Pete and the Fire in the Belly audience about how he lost everything in the 2009 recession, and how that experience helped show him where, and how, he was standing in his own way. As he rebuilt his real estate business through a measured approach of being vulnerable and transparent in his practices, he vowed he would help other entrepreneurs to avoid the same pitfalls that had slowed him down. In this episode of the podcast, we get to listen to Brandon’s unique story and how he created his consulting service, The Authentic Agent, and what he hopes to help others achieve.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Curiosity about all aspects of life and being humble about the practice of learning new things, can fuel passion and success in your business.
• Taking personal responsibility for one’s actions is difficult, and often uncomfortable, but finding that path forward emotionally often yields results in your personal and professional life.
• Vulnerability breeds authenticity, which attracts people to you and to your “brand”.
• What if we spent eight hours a day, five days a week, truly dedicated to our goals – not just watching Netflix, but planning out an approach and trying to make it happen? There is a special equation that happens when we give time and strategy and consistency to what we want to have happen.

BEST MOMENTS

• “Business is an incredible conduit for spiritual and personal growth…our businesses will grow in direct proportion to how we grow as people.”
• “A lot of people’s inability to move their business forward is just, simply, inconsistency. It’s such a simple thing, yet so incredibly powerful to show up for yourself and your business and your family and your goals and do it with great consistency.”
• “I feel a lot of solace in the action of life. It helps me to be ‘doing’.”
• “What causes people to fail is their inability to be vulnerable.”

ABOUT THE GUEST

Brandon Tracy has lived several lifetimes in his 40 years. Right after graduating from Arizona State with a degree in kinesiology, at the age of 24, he was diagnosed with a golf-ball-sized brain tumour behind his left eye. Lying in his hospital bed after emergency surgery, he realized he wanted to follow in his mother’s footsteps and become a real estate agent. After attaining a multimillion-dollar career in real estate, he lost everything (multiple homes, multiple cars, his entire fortune) after the economic recession of 2009, and was reduced to couch-surfing with friends while he re-assessed, once again, the wreckage of his life. It was at that point that he had two revelations: real estate was more important to him than he realized, and he was the main obstacle standing in his way. That day, the journey towards becoming his most authentic, transparent self, began.

Now, Brandon is the powerhouse behind Authentic Agent: entrepreneurial, industry support that helps other real estate agents reach success by being more vulnerable, authentic, and transparent in their personal and business practices.
