Hosts: Andrew Michael Arroyo & Gary Giffin Guest Speaker: Brad Formsma
In our latest podcast episode, our hosts deliver a delightful mix of humor and heartfelt stories from the real estate world and daily life, while exploring the concept of generosity.
We start with light-hearted real estate humor, featuring amusing client calls about beach properties and fixer-uppers. These segments provide comic relief and a glimpse into the quirky side of the real estate business, setting the stage for deeper discussions.
Our special guest, Brad Formsma, renowned speaker, author, and host of “The Wow Factor” podcast, is the highlight of this episode. Brad shares a personal story about a simple act of kindness in an airport bathroom that had a profound impact, illustrating the ripple effect of generosity.
Brad discusses seven ways to be generous beyond monetary giving: thoughts, words, time, attention, influence, belongings, and money. He provides practical examples and tips for incorporating these types of generosity into daily life.
One of the episode’s most powerful moments is Brad’s explanation of generosity’s physiological and psychological benefits. Acts of kindness can trigger the release of feel-good hormones like oxytocin and dopamine, benefiting both the giver and the receiver.
The episode also emphasizes the importance of being fully present and giving undivided attention to others, a form of generosity that can be incredibly impactful in our distraction-filled world.
As the episode concludes, Brad encourages listeners to take small steps towards a more generous life. Every act of generosity, whether it’s a kind word, a thoughtful gesture, or giving your time, contributes to a better world.
Tune in to this episode for humor, thought-provoking insights, and inspiration to embrace the power of generosity.
