What if one meeting a week could change the trajectory of your entire career?
That’s exactly what happens for many real estate professionals who commit to being part of a mastermind group. In 2025, these aren’t just trendy meetups they’re high level incubators for accountability, idea exchange, and business breakthroughs.
It all started with an unexpected moment. One of the speakers in the video recalls stepping into a ballroom in 1989, sent by his father to attend a mysterious meeting. Inside, he discovered 16 of the industry’s most elite agents openly sharing their wins, failures, and bold ideas.

“You don’t know what you’re missing until you’re in the room,” says one agent. “I thought I was doing great. Then I realized how much faster I could grow with others around me.”

Based on what we’ve learned from this transcript, here’s what works:
✅ Case #1 Tracy in Park City, Utah: She was about to leave real estate altogether after moving cities. But an invite to the mastermind group reignited her motivation. Last year, she closed $30M in sales.
✅ Case #2 Dustin’s Book Club Impact: One group read The 12 Week Year and built their entire Q1 strategy around it. The shared language and focus dramatically boosted execution.
✅ Case #3 Mastermind Mini Pods: Beyond the main weekly calls, agents broke into smaller pods one for YouTube strategy, another for follow up systems. Each pod accelerated implementation in that niche area.
You don’t need permission. You just need initiative.
Step 1: Define the purpose. Example goals: grow GCI by 30%, improve client experience, launch YouTube presence, etc.
Step 2: Choose members wisely. Pick agents who are serious about growth. They don’t need to be in your market in fact, diversity helps.

But that doesn’t mean you have to do it alone.
In fact, doing it alone might be the biggest mistake you can make this year.
Take action: Don’t wait to get invited. Be the one who starts the circle.
