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

Deceptive & Unethical Practices (RPRN Audiobook Ch. 6)
02/09/2019 Duración: 04minI don’t always talk about real estate, even though that is how I supported myself for the majority of the last 5 years. But every so often something happens that I feel obligated to write about in an effort to hopefully help distance myself from the deceptive behaviors I see on a regular basis in the real estate industry. I get frustrated as I scrape and claw for every client I work with only to be done in by the unethical behavior of my competitors. This is why authenticity and generosity are the two pillars of my business. It may make business growth slower but ultimately I’d rather be kept awake at night because of a lack of clients rather than a lack of morals.

Death of a [Real Estate] Salesman (RPRN Audiobook Ch. 5)
08/07/2019 Duración: 07minIf I want to still be able to support my family 5 years from now, I can't ignore the overwhelming evidence that shows that my way of making a living today may not exist 10 years from now. Netflix, Amazon, Uber, and AirBnB all disrupted their respective industries by going direct-to-consumer and cutting out the middle-man. The next logical step is for companies like Zillow and RedFin to facilitate real estate transactions directly between home-buyers and home-sellers. In fact, most agents pay fees to these companies for leads, so in a sense they are funding the companies who are trying to put the agent out of business.

5th Grade Career Day Presentation

I spoke about how I became a professional actor, what it's like to work at Sight & Sound Theatres, and how I used a career in real estate to help me work toward my dream job. Believe it or not, I was more nervous to stand in front of these 100 5th graders than I am performing in front of 2000 people everyday. I hope you enjoy this because I had a blast!
