Podcast 136: The Choices That Build You

Alex Nunez & Edgar Del Val Episode 136

Welcome to Episode 136 of The Endless Growth Podcast!

This week, Alex and Edgar blend real-life updates, relatable struggles, and grounded perspective. Alex walks through renewing his real estate license, sparking a convo about backup careers, discipline, and why some chapters are worth keeping open as life shifts. They trade stories from the field, including Utah’s surprising disclosure rules and how showings can turn into marathons.

Then it shifts to entrepreneurship and the small business grind. Edgar breaks down winter’s impact on detailing, last-minute workloads, and the smart pivots that keep revenue moving, like holiday light installs. They dig into procrastination, discipline, and why working well under pressure can become a double-edged sword.

Later, they go deeper on success, comparison, and the long game. Why early career stages feel slow. What people misunderstand about sales and business ownership. And why defining success for yourself is the only path that actually works.

Before wrapping, they lighten it up with Halloween plans, gym talk, gaming nostalgia, and a few honest lessons about mistakes, social burnout, chasing a 315 bench, and doing good without expecting anything back. It is an easygoing, reflective listen that feels close to home.

Tap play, share with a friend, and keep growing one choice at a time.
