Damian Burris’ journey to becoming an influential force in the real estate industry has been through the road of what seems like another life! His story of coming from the world of Law Enforcement as an investigator and eventually detective in the Major Crimes Investigative Unit is riveting, inspiring, and one of a kind. Damian has taught hundreds of other students how to maximize their potential by becoming real estate investors and many others about the power of financial literacy. On this episode of the Work N’ Play Podcast we sit down to talk about :

- Work ethic and perseverance: his experience of growing up in a single-parent household, working since the age of 15, getting his G.E.D., and eventually going to college.

- The power of our individual pulpits: how to tap into our ability to H.E.LP. ( Honoring Every Level of People) regardless of where we come from and our personality type.

- Settling for being great over being proposed: leaving law enforcement after a 12-year career and establishing his “new normal.”

- Walking through the tension of faith and doubt: how to live life in the midst of uncertainty and on the journey to walking in your purpose.

- Doing real estate THE RIGHT WAY: going from selling real estate to empowering others to transition into the real estate world.

And so much more!
