Businesses with strong team cultures crush the competition, outperforming by a jaw-dropping 200%. Yet in the relentless, high-pressure world of mortgages—where sales targets reign supreme—many leaders miss the mark on building the trust and collaboration that fuel sustainable success. Without a clear vision or a united team, scaling feels like trying to sprint through quicksand. 

What if the secret to a billion-dollar business wasn’t grinding harder or chasing the next shiny object, but creating a culture so magnetic that top talent lines up to join your team, your clients can’t stop raving, and growth becomes almost effortless?

Most mortgage pros think hustle and rapid growth are the keys to the kingdom. But here’s the hard truth: chasing short-term wins might actually be blocking your path to long-term greatness. What if the real game-changer is doing less—but doing it better—anchored in culture, purpose, and servant leadership with a patient, long term approach?

In this episode, we sit down with Anthony Contento and Michele Steko of Sherwood Mortgage Group, who have cracked the code on building a billion-dollar team. They reveal how they fostered a family-like culture that inspires loyalty, strategically scaled by putting people before profits, and navigated tough markets with grace, grit, and innovation. 

You’ll also learn: 

• The power of building a “family culture” that attracts and retains top talent—because people don’t join companies, they join people.
• How to thrive in any market, even when the wind is in your face, by focusing on what you can control and staying intentional with your actions.
• Why servant leadership wins the long game, and how putting people first creates magnetic, lasting success.
• The timeless secret to building billion-dollar relationships: connecting with 2-3 COIs (centers of influence) a day and compounding those connections into massive results.
• How to master your mindset and self-image to overcome fear, imposter syndrome, and self-doubt—because you can’t outperform the belief you have in yourself.
• Why alignment matters more than chasing shiny objects, and how to find your lane for authentic, unstoppable growth.
• How to manage challenges with gratitude and grace, and turning adversity into your greatest asset.

Over the past 2.5 years, the majority of mortgage pros have seen a sharp decline in their pipelines in comparison to the “mortgage gold rush” of 2020-2021. Relying on the same old prospecting methods that worked a few years ago have probably hit the point of diminishing returns.

The reality is, if you're fishing in the same pond as everyone else, you're likely walking away empty-handed. To stay afloat and thrive, you need to get creative and start looking for opportunities where others aren’t.

Sticking with the status quo in this market could cost you more than just a few deals—it could cost you your livelihood as it has for tens of thousands mortgage pros over the past year. The top producers are thinking differently and taking innovative approaches to secure leads that others are missing out on. They are using this so-called “down market” as an opportunity to up their marketing innovation, so they can take market share. 

What if you could discover a wellspring of quality leads in places no one else is looking? Just think about how your business would transform as you build powerful partnerships (in unique and creative ways) that consistently bring in business, while your competition clings to the conventional dinosaur methods that lead to extinction. 

In this episode, my co-host Penny Wrightly and I talk about powerful, creative prospecting strategies that work even in today’s tough market. If your pipeline is drying up, it's a clear wake-up call—time to step up, take massive action, and start getting creative to proactively generate quality leads now!

It’s important to maintain your grit and have a strong frame of mind in this business. Things that are working, you need to continue doing, and if something's not working, you need to cut those things, but remain consistent with the fundamentals. -Penny Wrightly

You’ll also learn:

• Why right NOW is the perfect time to step up and innovate your prospecting strategies (while everyone else is sleeping at the wheel)
• How to diversify your lead sources like a top producer, so you can protect your pipeline from drying up and build a rock-solid, recession-proof business 
• Proven techniques that will have you standing head and shoulders above your competitors
• The secret to building a “VIP Rolodex” of power partners that keeps quality leads flowing in the door like clockwork
• How to use strategic collaboration to create exponential growth
• Actionable strategies to turn today’s low-transaction, low-inventory market into your biggest opportunity for success

In today’s ultra-competitive market with low inventory and relatively high rates, leads are harder to come by, and yet, many are unwittingly wasting the few they do get by making costly mistakes.

The key to thriving unthriving times isn’t necessarily just about getting more leads, but in converting more of the ones you already have into high-quality, high-paying clients who send referrals, give rave reviews and then come back to do repeat business,

Focusing solely on generating more leads might mean you're missing the bigger picture. The real issue often isn’t the quantity of leads but the quality of your lead source and the quality of your follow-up.

Many MLOs are letting potential deals slip through their fingers by not fully capitalizing on the opportunities they already have.

Are you truly squeezing all the juice out of the opportunities you’ve been given, or are you letting potential deals slip through your fingers? How would your life change if you could close more deals with less stress?

In this episode, I talk to Lead Conversion Expert, Penny Wrightly, where we reveal the 3 secrets for closing more deals from fewer leads. Stop doing it the hard way and start doing it the SMART WAY.

"Whether your leads come from your client database or referral partnerships you’re building, those will be your highest-quality leads and the easiest to convert." -Penny Wrightly

You’ll also learn: 

• How to assess and improve the quality of your leads to skyrocket your conversions.
• The most effective follow-up strategies that turn lukewarm leads into hot, motivated prospects.
• Why asking for referrals is a non-negotiable step in your sales process.
• The crucial role systems play in your follow-up game and how to implement them the right way.
• A simple, yet effective strategy for attracting more high-quality leads from your existing clients.
• Tips for nurturing relationships with referral partners to keep your lead pipeline full - regardless of market conditions.

Most people think making decisions that lead to revenue growth is all about speed or just following your gut, but there's a lot more to it. Top producers in the mortgage industry excel because they have mastered the art of strategic decision-making.

What really sets top producers apart isn’t just that they know how to close a loan or sell their services – both of those skills are vital – but rather, their ability to lead themselves and others with powerful decisions that produce extraordinary results.

In this episode, I explain the top five decision-making habits of successful mortgage pros that can improve your leadership and explode your pipeline.

"Top producers have a strong propensity and proclivity to step outside their comfort zone, swing for the fences, and take strategic risks for higher rewards because there is no reward without risk." - Doren Aldana

Things you’ll learn: 

-How to make decisions quickly and wisely, while avoiding the pitfalls of being rash or procrastinating.

-Ways to balance big dreams with realistic, incremental milestones, ensuring strategic growth while mitigating unnecessary risk.

-When to seek advice and move forward confidently once a decision is made.

-Why you need to use your head and heart, trusting your gut while relying on logical analysis and critical thinking.

-How to act quickly on opportunities but be patient with results, prioritizing high-impact decisions.

Success in the mortgage industry often feels like an uphill battle, an endless grind against constant challenges.

For many LOs, the daily grind can seem overwhelming, with rising rates, increasing competition, and the struggle to stand out in a crowded market. These obstacles are not exceptions but the norm, and how you handle them defines your success.

How can you rise above the resistance and ramp up your revenue? How can you WIN in ANY market CONSISTENTLY, not just a “fair weather” market?

In this episode, I talk about the common struggles most mortgage pros face—low inventory, high rates, stagnation, frustration, and a dwindling pipeline. I also reveal the three counterintuitive truths of success that will change your mortgage career forever.

"Income growth is preceded by inner growth. Your business is like a personal development course with a compensation plan attached." - Doren Aldana

Things you’ll learn:

- How inner growth precedes income growth.

- The importance of focusing on the process rather than the prize.

- Why connecting to your purpose leads to greater success.

- How top producers win in any market regardless of market conditions.

- Practical steps to overcome fear and take purposeful action.

It's still a challenging market with rates high and inventory low, but remember, it's not the market, it's your marketing – AND YOUR MINDSET! It's all about controlling what's INSIDE of your control, and obviously, you cannot control market conditions. What you CAN control is your daily activities, what you focus on, and the spirit you bring to those activities, and that makes all the difference in the world when it comes to your results.

Have you ever wondered how the TOP 1% income earners think and that allows them to earn 10X more than the average LO? What do they know that you don't when it comes to their ability to stay resourceful and show up confidently in the face of obstacles? How do they turn adversity into opportunity that puts wads of cash in their wallet?

In today’s episode, I reveal 5 key ways top producers think differently than the average LO and how you can apply these mindsets to your mortgage career. By the end, you will have the tools to break through barriers and reach new heights of success despite the current market.

To accelerate your speed of success, you must accelerate your speed of failure, and top producers embrace the concept called fail forward fast. –Doren Aldana

Things you’ll learn:

-How top producers defy common sense and conventional wisdom.

-How the elite high achievers deal with failure that sets them apart from the pack.

-How the top dogs relate to discomfort and build consistency in their daily disciplines.

-Techniques top producers use to maintain peace and calm, enabling them to solve problems more effectively.

-How top producers make decisions that allow them to accelerate their success.

Mortgage rates are rising and inventory is low, leaving most mortgage originators feeling frustrated and defeated. The pressure to engage Realtors has never been higher, and the competition is fierce. But what if you could turn this adversity into your biggest opportunity?

Imagine being so attractive to top-producing Realtors that they are no longer ignoring your calls and rejecting your overtures but actually open, receptive, even eager to speak with you. With the right strategy, you can flip the script so the Realtor needs YOU more than you need them.

How do you make yourself the GO-TO mortgage pro that top-producing Realtors are excited to partner with?

In today’s episode, I will reveal the 3 reasons why Realtors keep turning you down and, more importantly, how to fix it. As a result, you will be able to build profitable relationships with Top Realtors who each send you 1, 2, 3 deals per month like clockwork.

Start by showing up caring and curious, and bring some concern and empathy. People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care. -Doren Aldana

Things you’ll learn:

-How to avoid showing too many "whiskers" and start offering only the "cheese" that Realtors can’t resist

-How to develop a vetting process that positions you as an attractive partner - but not "easy to get."

-How to change your approach from selling to attracting, from chasing to asking quality questions and presenting custom-tailored solutions so you become the only logical choice
