The Marathon Mindset

I sit down with, San Antonio Police Officer, Benjamin Garcia before he embarks on his 263 miles Ultra Run from The Alamo in San Antonio to San Juan, Texas on December 15, 2020! Benjamin is a military veteran, serving two tours in Iraq, a former Bexar County Sheriff Deputy, and a member of the San Antonio Police Pipes & Drums. Benjamin is running to benefit the South Texas Chapter of Concerns of Police Survivors (C.O.P.S.). You can follow Benjamin and donate to support his run and his cause here on his Facebook page.  Drop him a note and wish him luck! Hope you enjoy the episode!

Dr. Gabe Rodriguez is an ER physician here in San Antonio and also has a Concierge Medicine practice that offers comprehensive and personalized medical care at a fixed cost. Gabe has always been a forward thinking person and I loved sitting down and talking about his business, classic cars, our UFC trips, and wanting to be a stunt man!

I changed it up a bit this episode and took the podcast virtual on zoom. I sat down with two of the young gun real estate agents in my office and asked how they started, what they did before, and what made them take the jump into real estate. We also discussed dealing with quarantine and the new normal.
