Today's meetup is limited to 12 BB and above only players and 2x2, 3x3 or 4x4 play only. Please help us keep this day limited and enjoy the open play on the other days if you or your friend are not BB or above. People make plans and travel to show up on limited days for limited play because it is limited to experienced players. Please do not show up if you are on the waitlist without checking first, or try to play 5's or 6's, with your friend that is learning how to play, or because it is not full with 12 players if you or your friend are not BB or above. We’d rather play with 9 experienced players on these limited days than open it up to beginners, friends that are learning, etc. There are other open days for that, and they are fun too.

Most agents think scaling a business will eventually create freedom. Instead, many end up with more people, more pressure, and even less time. On Wednesday, May 27 at 8:00 PM EST, join us live for a conversation with Dr. Al Philip-Neri, Performance Psychologist, Realtor, and real estate operator with investments across 21 U.S. markets. This session is focused on the execution side of business growth: • Leadership • Hiring • Systems • Accountability • Operational structure Not motivational fluff. Not generic mindset talk. This is a practical conversation about what it actually takes to stop being the bottleneck in your own business and build something that can operate without you carrying every moving part yourself. In this live session, we'll discuss: ✔ Why growth does not automatically create freedom ✔ The hidden reason your business still depends on you ✔ How the wrong hires quietly slow momentum and execution ✔ What changes when the right people are in the right roles ✔ How to transition from operator to true business owner This session is ideal for: • Brokerage owners • Team leaders • Agents building toward a team • Growth-minded entrepreneurs This is a live Zoom event only. No replay will be available. Please register through Zoom after RSVP'ing on Meetup so you receive the login link.
