Description

Richard Mulder went from Girl/Chocolate pro to starting at zero in real estate. No residuals. No safety net. And every January 1 felt like day one again. In this episode he lays out exactly how he survived the reset: treat real estate like a contact sport, lead with questions to build real rapport, and stop pretending this is a side hustle.


Watch if you care about: real estate sales, lead generation, new agent strategy, career reinvention, identity after sports, money and stewardship.


Quick wins you’ll get:
• Daily outreach cadence that actually compounds
• The right way to build trust fast
• Good debt vs bad debt in plain English
• Why “all in” beats talent when the market slows
