There’s a moment in every entrepreneur’s journey where they realize the goal isn’t just to make a living it’s to make an impact.

In this episode of R.E.A.L. Real Estate Agent Life, hosts Shane Kilby (Sweet Home Alabama) and Duane Murphy (Great State of Wisconsin) sit down with Pat Garrity, the Canadian powerhouse behind Trilliant Real Estate Group of Sylvan Lake, Alberta.

Pat has been selling homes and shaping lives since 2000. But this conversation goes far deeper than sales numbers. It’s about what really builds empires that last: discipline, community, and the courage to “master the mundane.”

💡 Pat reveals:

• How one piece of advice from his stepfather (Real Estate License #1 on the board!) changed his life.
• The single rule that keeps his marriage, team, and culture thriving: “Meet me at the 50-yard line.”
• Why focusing on people before technology saved his company’s soul.
• How he turned “boring discipline” into millions in production — and over $100,000 in local charity impact.
• The three timeless pillars that define every elite agent he mentors: Honesty. Competency. Care.

You’ll walk away inspired, recalibrated, and reminded that real success isn’t about the next shiny tool… it’s about the relationships you build, the people you serve, and the lives you change along the way.

Whether you’re a new agent, a seasoned leader, or somewhere in between, this episode will light the fire, sharpen your focus, and remind you why you started.

Shane Kilby (Sweet Home Alabama) and co-host Duane Murphy (Appleton, WI) sit down with Brenda Young, a lifelong Appleton resident who traded 33 years in dentistry for a brand-new real estate career at age 51 and never looked back.

Brenda opens up about burning the boats, building confidence, and the power of spousal buy-in.

She shares how training, admin leverage, and relentless service helped her go from two closings in ten months to multi-million-dollar annual production (no team, no buyers’ agents, no personal assistant).

You’ll hear the unglamorous early days, the “estimated taxes” lesson, why community events matter, and how humility + consistency can outpace flash.

If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s too late to start or how to scale without losing your soul this one’s for you.

What we cover:

• Leaving a stable 9–5 for a commission-only career—with a plan
• The role of spouse/family buy-in during the first 2–3 grind years
• Training vs. “figure it out”: how structure at Expert Real Estate Partners changed everything
• Letting go of paperwork (hello, admin team) to win back life and pipeline
• Confidence as a learned skill: from “meek and shy” to assertive professional
• Why humble, grateful marketing still attracts clients and referrals
