Jet, congratulations on the creation of your new book. Over my thirty industry years, I have collaborated with many greats who struggled to live up to the person they thought they should be. It's great to see a book like yours bring the needed light on a very dark side topic – well done.
Lee Woodward, Real Estate Trainer
All too often, our industry hides behind a carefully curated veneer on social media or a disingenuous polished personal brand. This can lead to agents comparing themselves to their peers, often evoking a sense of inadequacy, anxiety or inferiority. We need to stop comparing our own struggles to everyone else’s highlight reel. This book cuts through the usual BS, providing a unique insight into the trials and tribulations of some of our industry’s most respected figures and how they overcame adversity.
Douglas Driscoll, CEO Starr Partners Real Estate
Real estate is a fast-paced, addictive and rewarding industry of which we typically only hear all the good things and show off our wins and successes. But success does come at a cost; it’s great that someone like Jet has brought this to the surface and openly discusses the challenges with everyday people doing their best in real estate. It’s a topic not spoken about enough!
Ben Chick, Owner Explore Property Group Mackay QLD
Great to see a book talking about mental health in real estate.
Tom Panos, Real Estate Trainer
Congratulations Jet on your endeavours to highlight the struggles that the industry faces on a day-to-day basis and for continually striving to find a solution!
I have worked in the real estate industry for the past eighteen years, achieving exceptional results. I have been a high-performing agent and over the last ten years, I have also established a very successful franchise business with over thirty offices. The perception from the outside is that life is great at all times. The reality is that after a harrowing four-year divorce and having to sell multiple offices to fund it, I hit a big wall. I didn’t know how to deal with my struggles. It took one of my employees to identify that I was totally broken and in need of help. In hindsight, the best thing I did was reach out and get the help I needed before it was all too late. Don’t be pig-headed. There is help out there and it’s only a call away.
Darren Hutchins, Co-Founder & Corporate Director O’Brien Real Estate
Champions Cry Too gives every agent permission to pursue their personal potential. Too often, the notion of mental wellness is deficit-based and focuses on people who are experiencing a crisis. Yet wellness is much more than the absence of disease; it is an opportunity for everyone to shift the needle, to be more 'well'. In a high-risk industry for mental health challenges, the first step to enabling our people to be well is to break down the stigma around mental health and to disconnect the notion of high performance as being an all-in pursuit. This read bravely faces the issues of imbalance.
Sarah Bell, CoFounder AiRE and RiTA's Mum
Everyone has a journey. It can be gritty, tough or heartbreaking. The human spirit can endure, recover and then soar to great heights. This book will help others do that.
Sadhana Smiles (Jeraj), Director Harcourts Move
Real estate can be a fast track way to achieve shiny success for many, often with a whatever-it-takes approach; however, whilst it can be deeply rewarding it is never worth losing your health, relationships, happiness and self-worth over. Champions Cry Too is a real, raw and authentic look beneath the slick of the industry shine where it deep dives into the wellspring of human courage and the power of what’s possible when we are willing to continue, despite the consuming desire to quit at times!
Tanja Lee, Leadership and Mindset Specialist
Jet knows how to get down to the nitty-gritty of what really matters in life. He gives valuable reminders that working smarter rather than harder can be literally life-saving in more ways than one.
Georgi Bates, Partner Cunninghams Real Estate
The dream is free; the journey isn’t. Jet Xavier’s Champions Cry Too provides a deep and personal perspective of the sacrifice, resilience and perseverance required to reach the pinnacle of our industry. Behind every success and accolade, there is a heartfelt story of how the dream to reach the top was often accompanied by extraordinary personal challenges. Those in this book provide every reader with an invaluable resource to help navigate through their own battles and, more importantly, come out the other end triumphantly. I highly recommend Champions Cry Too; it makes for compulsory reading for all new and current industry professionals.
Manos Findikakis, CEO Eview Group
Success in real estate can be broken into two parts. Fifty percent is the ‘how to’ – the nuts and bolts of real estate systems and structure – and the other fifty percent is the ‘why to’ – the internal hunger and motivation. Jet is the coach agents turn to, to get back on track fast. This book gives great insight into how to overcome tough times and get motivated again.
Aaron Shiner, Real Estate Trainer
Elton John once said, “It is a weird thing…to be on stage in front of 80,000 screaming fans calling your name and then to go backstage afterwards and feel like shit.” When we earn huge money in this business, the other side can quite often be obsessiveness, addiction and sadness. In the end, we are not striving against a bunch of KPIs or even to get more money. It comes down to how you feel about yourself and looks beyond the perceived “normal” earning power, which can distort all of that. Jet understands this. He has worked outside the industry and within it to bring awareness and is very qualified to do this work. This is a book all agents should read, whether just starting off or in the thick of “success”.
Peter Gilchrist, Real Estate Trainer
It has been refreshing to get a trainer who focuses more on getting the balance right than the dialogue. Jet has lived and breathed a transformation and you can sense it with his ability to engage in the topics he opens up about. He is authentic and very real and I have personally enjoyed the relatability to good business and life lessons. This book is a great reflection of those lessons.
