Sinopsis
The Dangerous & Delicate Balancing Act Between Your Dream Job and Your Day Job Formerly titled Real Person | Real Needs This podcast chronicles the journey of a 30-something who is trying to discover his purpose in life and make his dreams a reality. Geoff Desiato is a husband and father of two, with the responsibility to provide for his family. He's a proud high-school graduate who has worked full-time since he was 17 years old. But after 13 years of working for “The Man,” and being told that he needed to go back to school if he wanted to be successful, Geoff experienced a pre-mid-life crisis. Like many people, Geoff had passions and dreams but not the ability or confidence to pursue them. For instance, he is an aspiring actor and semi-professional singer. With the support of his wife, Geoff decided it was time to find a suitable career that would allow him to pursue his dreams while still providing for his family and doing something he loved. So Geoff set out on his entrepreneurial journey by diving into the Real Estate industry. Upon getting his first taste of self-employment, Geoff became fascinated with entrepreneurship, and has since dedicated his time and energy to helping people who feel trapped in their day jobs discover how they are uniquely positioned to change the world! This podcast is for people who struggle with balancing their day job while pursuing their dream job. Formerly titled Real Person | Real Needs For fans of Jon Acuff, Seth Godin, Gary Vaynerchuk, as well as the podcasts Millennial and This American Life

AR067: “Descent into Madness” (Podcast Version)
18/05/2020 Duración: 29minIn this episode of the #ActingRealtor podcast, my frustration continues to mount as we stay under lock-down, as projection after projection is proven to be wildly exaggerated. I also find out that I will not be eligible for PA Unemployment, though thankfully I have been able to receive the federal money provided by the CARES Act. Meanwhile, I visit my mom on Mother's day, eat ice cream, continue some household projects, and shave off my beard due to anxiety causing me to pull beard hairs out and leave bald-spots. Note: As you will see in this episode, this pandemic and the government's response has caused me to be more vocal about my beliefs, which is also causing some friction among longtime friends.

AR063: “Social Distancing- Week 1” (Podcast Version)
26/03/2020 Duración: 31minIt's times like these that I realize how important it is for my family legacy that I document my life. As a society we are facing something that we hoped we'd only see in the movies. None of us know what to expect when we wake up each day. In this episode of the #ActingRealtor, I find out that I'm being placed on furlough from my job as the state of Pennsylvania closes all non-essential businesses, which means, I also can't practice real estate. So what does an #ActingRealtor do when he's not acting or realtor...ing? Well, my wife and I live-stream a concert, I read children's books, and most importantly, try to stay sane.

Wait… isn’t this guy just a Realtor? (RPRN Audiobook Ch. 10)
19/03/2020 Duración: 04minAT THIS POINT, YOU MAY BE THINKING, “WAIT…ISN’T THIS GUY JUST A REALTOR?” I hear you. These ideas may seem crazy to some. That is why I am so thankful for those who have supported me and my business. While my approach may be unconventional at times, I truly believe in building a community of like-minded people who are more concerned with being authentic than appealing to the masses, while confronting fear and meeting real needs.

The Shoe on the Other Foot (RPRN Audiobook Ch. 9)
02/03/2020 Duración: 05minOne of the things that I strive to communicate to my clients is the importance of understanding the transaction from the "opposing" side. I use that word not in an adversarial way, but simply because it is accurate. The sellers and buyers are at opposite ends of the settlement table, but one of my jobs is reminding people that regardless of whether they are buying or selling, everyone wants the same outcome.

03/02/2020 Duración: 07minNow as a disclaimer, I am not saying that people who work in Real Estate are out and out LYING all the time (though there are definitely a few bad apples in the bunch).
