3 Ways to Help a Stressed out Team

On a quest to get 100 quality responses, I recently I asked several people this question: 
I am launching a new podcast later this year and a few other programs too and had a quick question if you don’t mind- what would you say is the single biggest challenge you’re currently facing in your life or business right now?
As you can imagine, there have been an assortment of answers.  Here's one topic that does seem to be trending for the current events.  Employee fatigue.  Seems we're seeing a struggle with keeping team members focused (that's of course if we can find people that actually want to work).  I guess this one stands out to me because of my role as a Regional Coach for a large Real Estate Expansion team.  I see it with them and I hear about it concerning buyers they are working with too.  

Here are 3 things that will make a big difference in how you lead.  I trust this helps.

The Bridge to Next Year - Your Q4 Focus

The calendar flips. The page turns. Another year ends, and a new one begins. Most people treat this transition like a hard reset. A magical switch. As if a new number on the date automatically wipes the slate clean and hands them a fresh start. It doesn't. Next year isn't magically better. It's built. It's constructed, brick by brick, by the choices you make now . Especially now. In this final quarter. The bridge from this year's potential to next year's guaranteed success isn't paved with resolutions made on January 1st. It's built with specific, non-negotiable actions taken in the eleventh hour. For me, that bridge is clear: onboarding 60 agents into the Productivity Coaching Program at Keller Williams Jacksonville and First Coast. It’s not just a number; it’s 60 new engines ready to fire, 60 seeds planted for exponential growth. It’s the foundational momentum that makes everything else possible. What is your bridge? What is the one, undeniable, criti...

What's your Number?

We talk about freedom. We talk about choice. We talk about work-life balance , the hustle , and the grind . But sometimes, all that chatter is just noise, distracting us from the actual lever of autonomy . The lever is a number. It’s not your net worth. It’s not your annual salary. It's not your bank account balance right now. It’s your FUN (F* U Number) . It’s the amount of capital, invested strategically, that would spin off enough residual income —passively—to cover your chosen lifestyle expenses forever. It’s the size of the asset that makes the job optional. The deadline negotiable. The compromise avoidable. It’s the number that means you get to say 'no' to the client who drains you, 'yes' to the project that inspires you, and 'stop' to the routine that suffocates you. It's the ultimate measure of your self-reliance . If you don't know your FUN, you don't know the distance to your freedom. You're just wandering. You're working withou...

The Feeling of Progress

We can make a list. We can plan the week. We can block out the calendar. But the question isn't just "What?" The real question is "Why?" The "what" is the task. It's the meeting, the email, the first draft, the phone call. It's the hard work. But the "why" is the feeling. It's the quiet satisfaction of a completed task. The rush of momentum. The relief of getting started. The sense of control. The lightness that comes from doing the work instead of just thinking about it. That feeling is the fuel. It's the reason we show up tomorrow. It’s the feedback loop that reinforces the behavior. So, don't just ask what you must focus on. Also, ask what it will feel like when it's done. Describe the feeling. In detail. The feeling of the inbox at zero. The feeling of seeing the first paragraph on the page. The feeling of the difficult conversation having been had. Focus on the feeling first. The rest will follow. Your Coach,  Spe...
