Power Half Hour, Unstoppable Business Owner Ep# 96 Steve Roake

Everything came crashing down, and I knew I could use it as an excuse to give up or an opportunity to commit wholeheartedly to what I wanted. I chose the latter. When the market crashed in 2008, I lost my high school math teacher job. From 2004 to 2009, I taught in a few local schools, and I loved it. Working with the kids and coaching the football team and the schedule was terrific. Then suddenly, I didn’t have a job, no one was hiring teachers, and here I was with my wife and child, counting on my income. During those years, as a teacher, I worked as a REALTOR® when I found the time. I had only seen it as a hobby at first. When my world fell apart, I realized this was my opportunity to do real estate right, to do more, and to unlock the potential to create a better life for my family and others. In the beginning, it was enormously difficult both financially and emotionally, but after a few years, I knew we had turned the corner, and I was living my dream. I realized along the way that we all deserve an opportunity to be happy and live the life we want. That is what we’re out to create for as many people as possible. I’ve developed myself into someone who can create teams and teamwork around any project through my participation at Landmark Worldwide. I'm working now on expanding my real estate business, life insurance, and solar panel sales, among a host of other projects that bring together teams and teamwork. Currently, the lead domino is the Virtual Holiday Party and 12 Days of Christmas giveaway inside of Wealth Transformation Foundation, leading up to a live financial event on January 13 to kick off 2024 and help people get their finances in order or expand what they already have.
