Is Drinking Costing You Listings You Do Not Even Realise You Are Losing?

It’s an Aussie icon. Booze. But is it quietly hurting your career? For years it’s been part of the real estate culture, Friday drinks, settlement celebrations, client dinners. But what if the thing that feels normal is actually holding agents back? Jarrod Carman joins us with more than two decades of real estate experience to share his personal journey of walking away from alcohol, and the impact it had on his focus, energy and performance in the industry. - Rare Lines × Rare Minds — Hakuba Retreat Rare Lines × Rare Minds is a small, curated retreat in Hakuba, Japan that brings together two powerful practices: snowboarding and embodied mindset work. Over seven days in the Japanese Alps, participants ride together on some of the best powder terrain in the world while also engaging in guided sessions focused on clarity, energy, relationships, and intentional living. The idea is simple: snowboarding has a way of stripping things back and bringing you into the present, and that environment becomes the perfect setting to explore how we think, decide, and show up in life. It’s designed for people who already value growth and self-leadership, and who want to step away from the noise for a week to recalibrate — physically, mentally, and emotionally — in a powerful environment. The retreat is intentionally limited to a small group so the experience stays personal and meaningful. Applications are open now for the January 2027 retreat in Hakuba Valley.
