## Resource

This show makes the boring FUN! Imagine if Joe Rogan and Dave Ramsey had a baby. That’s this show! These guys teach the sh*t they don’t teach in school. Their goal is to simplify topics that range from personal finance, purchasing real estate & obtaining home loans to being a successful mortgage originator, running a business and finding success as a sales professional. The mission is simple; to invite you into the room where it happens. They strive to teach you how to create opportunities even when it can be a struggle to get your foot in the door. While there is a lot of content geared specifically towards mortgage professionals, the majority of the episodes will resonate will all audience members. (Not just mortgage lenders!) D.O. (Dustin Owen) is the creator & host. He is a 20+ year veteran of the mortgage industry, a real estate investor, business coach and angel investor. J.C. (John Coleman) is the co-host / producer of the show. J.C. has 15+ years’ experience as an Emmy Award-Winning Content Creator & Marketer.
