In this raw and revealing episode, John sits down with Adam Day, one of the most influential figures in UK estate agency and a driving force behind eXp’s growth.

Adam shares the unfiltered story behind why he joined eXp instead of launching his own brand, what self-employment really demands from agents in the first 12 months, and the deeply personal experiences that shaped his mindset—including losing his father at age one and watching his mum struggle to make ends meet.

This is more than an industry chat. It’s a conversation about why we work, who we’re working for, and what it takes to build something that actually lasts.

Expect straight talk on:

– The brutal truth about work/life balance in year one

– Why consistency only works when it’s tied to your deepest “why”

– What sets eXp apart (without the sales pitch)

– How helping others succeed has become Adam’s real mission

If you’re self-employed, thinking about making the leap, or just want to understand what high-performance looks like without the fluff—this episode is a must-listen.

In this episode of the Zero BS Estate Agency Podcast, I’m joined by Barry Pulver — #1 International Agent at eXp Realty and one of the true pioneers of self-employed agency done right.

Barry shares his journey from a brand-new agent in North Carolina to leading a business that now spans 17 countries, helping agents build real careers, real wealth, and real freedom.

We dive into why the old High Street model is broken, how the future belongs to agents who back themselves, and what it really takes to build a business — and a life — you’re proud of.

This isn’t about theory.

This is about real-world experience from someone who’s living it at the highest level.

If you’re serious about growing your agency career, making an impact, and staying true to yourself in the process — you don’t want to miss this one.

Are you building a career in estate agency — or just chasing your next deal?

In this episode of The Zero BS Estate Agency Podcast, John sits down with Charlotte Jeffrey-Campbell, Director of The Able Agent®, the UK’s leading online training platform for estate and letting agents.

Together, they discuss:

• The real reason overvalued homes sit on the market for 100+ days

• Why we’ve lost the art of questioning — and how to get it back

• What’s broken in traditional agency training and how to fix it

• How to build a career that actually lasts
